"Critter Control of Boston provided exactly the kind of services my house needed, both control and repair. Mike and George are well-trained professionals, always on time for appointments and gave us good advice. They did a wonderful job! I'd recommend them to friends and co-workers."
"Remarkably well! After my initial phone conversation we set an appt. for the next day. Neil, a pest control expert arrived promptly. Listened to our concerns and proceeded to inspect every inch of the basement, including crawl space(!), each room on the 1st floor and the attic (a place that's difficult to maneuver). Checked perimeter for any points of entry. A lengthy, thorough inspection was completed to our satisfaction! Very impressed with Neil's attentiveness, professionalism and honesty. Highly recommend Cape Cod Pest Pros. Will definitely call on them with any future problems."
"Rutland took care of a yellow jacket nest in a timely fashion. Communication from Steve is excellent, and the exterminator came exactly in the time window provided. I would hire them again for pest control and am considering them for future lawn services also. Pricing was fair, and the technician was very knowledgable about the active and inactive ingredients that they used to treat the nest."
"Galvin was fantastic! Professional and very thorough! During my home inspection there were a couple areas noted that looked like carpenter ant damage. Not only did he inspect the areas of concern, but also the entire home and garage for any other potential issues. He gave me great recommendations during the inspection, along with a detailed report stating everything we talked about, and was patient with all my questions. I work in quality assurance in the food industry and have worked with several pest control companies throughout my career. I highly recommend Galvin/YPC as they are definitely top of the line for pest control and prevention."
"I was very pleased with S and M Pest Services. They were quite professional, up front about all work to be performed and the cost of each tier of service. They minimize the use of harmful pesticides yet still manage to get the job done. We hired them for two properties that had different requirements, with one being much more difficult than the other. The more difficult job involved setting external and internal traps, some exterior masonry work, roof and chimney work, substantial external patching of woodpecker damage, and significant termite control. They far exceeded expectations on the more difficult property and I would not hesitate to recommend them. I rated them a B for price because this was the first time we've had to use this service."
"Tim has done chimney caps, pest control and so on at my house over the years. Better than his great work and fair pricing, Tim is the type of guy you want around your home and family. Priceless!"
"The person gave me great advice and said that he thought I probably don't have rats in the house, but I do have them in the yard. I really appreciate that level of honesty! I highly recommend this company. Kevin"

In Boston, an initial pest control inspection typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, while the first treatment may last one to three hours depending on the pest issue. Follow-up visits are usually 30 to 45 minutes each. For persistent pests like bed bugs or rodents, complete elimination can require several weeks and multiple visits, especially during peak spring and summer infestation periods.
Helpful?
In Boston, hidden pest control costs often arise from the need to seal entry points in older homes, address moisture issues in basements, or schedule extra visits for stubborn infestations. Working in historic districts may require special care around lead paint, which can add complexity. Sometimes, inspections reveal hidden structural damage or the need for attic or HVAC system treatments, leading to additional work.
Helpful?
When comparing pest control quotes in Boston, be cautious of providers who skip a thorough inspection or offer vague, non-detailed estimates. Unusually low prices, lack of clear communication, or high-pressure sales tactics are warning signs. Avoid companies that can’t explain their treatment plans, don’t offer guarantees, or lack experience with Boston’s unique pest issues, especially in historic or multi-family properties. Always request local references.
Helpful?
Pest control in Boston requires quarterly treatments for most homes, with monthly visits often needed during humid summers when ant and mosquito activity peaks. Homeowners should focus on sealing cracks in foundations before winter, regularly clearing gutters to prevent moisture buildup, and inspecting basements for signs of rodents. Ongoing monitoring for termites and cockroaches is especially important in Boston’s older neighborhoods to ensure effective infestation prevention.
