Mosquitoes are among the most common summer pest problems. These hardy insects are able to breed in any type of stagnant water or moist soil, including ponds, drainage ditches, planters, and anywhere that water collects. Pestex offers expert advice to help discourage mosquitoes from breeding on your property and effective mosquito control in Boston and Framingham. Mosquitoes tend to bite most frequently at dusk and dawn. Unfortunately, these pests are more than just a nuisance. Mosquitoes are vectors of several very serious diseases, such as West Nile Virus, encephalitis, malaria, dengue fever, and yellow fever.

Subterranean termites live in underground colonies and secluded above ground locations. The termites build mud tubes to move without being exposed to the open air. They end up inside the walls of your home in search of food sources. Pestex brings four generations of pest management experience to termite control in Boston, Framingham, and surrounding areas. Subterranean termites are the most destructive termite species and can cause serious property damage before they are ever detected. Termites feed on cellulose, which they find in the wood in nature or in your home.

Cockroaches are hardy pests that have lived on earth since the time of the dinosaurs. Most types of cockroaches are capable of spreading bacteria, worms, and other pathogens to humans. At Pestex, we offer cockroach control in Boston and Framingham for all cockroach species. Despite its name, the American cockroach actually originated in Africa and arrived in America aboard ships in the 1600s. This is the largest type of cockroach found in homes and commercial buildings. They often infest areas where food is stored and prepared, such as basements, inside structures, and in alleys where garbage is stored.

The presence of ants in your home can be anything from a minor nuisance to a serious problem, depending on the type of ant and the amount seen per day. Pestex offers ant control in Boston, Framingham, and all of eastern Massachusetts for many different types of ants, including carpenter ants, odorous ants, pavement ants, and crazy ants. Our pest control specialists will ask specific questions about your particular situation to determine if you would be a good candidate for our Perimeter Defense Program The program treats the entire perimeter of your home's foundation and comes with a six month guarantee.

Fleas are parasites that feed on the blood of cats, dogs, and humans. They are transported on pets and wild animals, such as rodents, racoons, skunks, and opossums. Once they enter your home, they can be found on pant legs, blankets, carpeting, and furniture. If you are struggling with a flea infestation, Pestex offers safe and effective flea control in Boston and Framingham. While the most common issue with fleas are the red, itchy bumps, these pests can pose a much more serious risk to human and pet health.

Bed bugs have a nasty habit of hiding near beds and feeding on sleeping humans. For many years, the pests were mostly eradicated. However, increased international travel and lack of knowledge about prevention led to a resurgence of the problem starting in the 1990s. At Pestex, we have more than 30 years of experience with bed bug control in Boston, Framingham, and surrounding areas. If you suspect a bed bug problem, don't hesitate to call (617) 544-2566 for an inspection. Bed bugs spread easily in luggage, purses, and other bags.

Finding mice or rats in your home is unsettling. These pests can spread pathogens and cause property damage, if not handled promptly. Pestex provides rodent control in Boston and Framingham with humane solutions for the most common rodents in our area, including house mice, deer mice, Norway rats, and roof rats. These highly adaptable rodents are the most common species found inside homes. House mice adapt easily and breed quickly with each female producing up to 35 babies in a single year. They tend to nest in dark places and will create their nests with anything they can find, including paper, wall insulation, fabric, and other materials.
