Residential Pest Control Services

The residential pest control experts at Modern Pest Control have carefully determined what schedule most effectively maximizes treatments while minimizing chemical exposure—and the answer is tri-annual care. So, that’s the service model we recommend for our residential pest control services as a highly effective, more environmentally conscious approach. 

The result: optimal protection against commonly found pests in New England. This includes ants, bed bugs, cockroaches, flies, pantry pests, mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas, rodents (rats and mice), and termites. In each case, our residential exterminators will create a customized plan that’s ideally tailored for your specific situation in line with local regulations. 

Our home pest control approach distinguishes itself from the competition in our customizations along with how we use environmentally sustainable practices, like exclusion strategies, and advanced technology such as digital monitoring. Plus, we focus on long-term pest prevention going forward, helping our customers to maintain a pest-free environment through the use of proactive strategies rather than simply receiving reactive treatments. We also focus on education, sharing insights into what we’re doing and answering all your questions. 

More specifically, our New England residential pest treatments start with a multi-point inspection by a detail-minded, licensed professional. This allows our expert team to determine what pests are currently causing problems and the degree of the infestation. Next up: a personalized plan to remove any pests and address any ongoing issues. We’ll target applications carefully, using the lowest-risk, least toxic materials, and monitor hot spots.

In addition, we’ll apply a protective barrier around your home that stops pests from entering. Then, we’ll regularly visit to protect you against pests and recommend ways to keep them out.

“Pest control” is an umbrella term that includes but is not limited to rodent control whereas “rodent control” focuses on one specific form of pest control. 

For rodent control, our residential pest control experts recommend Anticimex SMART—which is a whole house, electronic rodent control system. Your home is monitored 24/7, through SMART technology, and you also benefit from 24/7 support. Our service professionals will set up the system and, whenever pest removal needs to occur, we handle that, too, with everything being safe and environmentally friendly. 

Deciding to use SMART technology is a smart decision! Rats and mice directly or indirectly spread more than thirty-five unwanted diseases around the world. Whether directly transmitted through bites, feces, urine, or saliva or indirectly through the fleas, ticks, and mites that feed on infected rodents, you’ll want to protect your family from these diseases. It makes sense to react quickly, too, because rodents reproduce quite quickly, rapidly turning a relatively small presence into an infestation. They can chew through wires in homes, as well, which can trigger house fires.

Do-it-yourself (DIY) pest prevention techniques include ones that deprive unwanted insects and creatures of shelter, food, and water. 

Find and seal up entry points to your home, including around doors and windows, on your roof, and more. Trim back tree branches and shrubbery that can provide on-ramps for pests into your home. Get rid of stacks of newspaper, cardboard, and magazines because they can provide places for pests to hide and breed. Clean up promptly after eating, including crumbs and pet food, and store food in airtight containers. Take trash out regularly, and place it in tightly lidded garbage cans away from your home’s foundation. Fix any leaks and address standing water.  Do not leave pet food and water out overnight.

Those are helpful DIY prevention tips and, when you have pest problems to address and want expert help in keeping them out, contact our residential exterminators. 

With our residential pest control services, we’ll apply highly effective, environmentally friendly treatments to get rid of your infestations with our tri-annual pest applications preventing them from gaining a foothold again. Plus, our home pest control experts will apply a barrier around your home to keep them from getting inside. Our team of residential exterminators will also educate homeowners on what to do—and what not to do—to create and keep a pest-free home.

If you only have an insect or two, you likely would not need residential pest control services to get rid of them. That said, with many bugs or critters, you may not be aware of the size of the population. Bed bugs, as just one example, are tiny and find good hiding places, making them exceptionally hard to spot. Plus, a small population of many pests can quickly turn into a true infestation because they breed quickly and, if the original entry points aren’t effectively sealed up, they can keep coming inside. DIY pest control treatments aren’t always effective and can be harmful when inappropriately applied. 

Our residential pest control services are available for a wide range of pests commonly found in New England with our organic pest control using natural pesticides such as plant-based oils and other organic materials. This residential pest treatment allows you to protect your home, safely and effectively, without using chemicals: powerful solutions that are easy on people and the Earth. Contact us!
