Lower Merion,

Exterminators

Like many other communities on Pennsylvania’s venerable Main Line, Montgomery County’s Lower Merion Township has historical significance dating back to colonial times. Established by Quaker immigrants from Wales in 1682, Lower Merion Township is the site of the oldest church in the country — the Merion Friends Meeting House has been used continuously since its construction in 1685. Although Viking Pest Control can’t match this for historical roots and longevity, we draw inspiration from it to give home and business owners in Lower Merion Township a similar level of dedication. One of our favorite aspects of the region is its abundant natural beauty. Still, the same biodiversity that allows that beauty to thrive also provides a great habitat for insects, rodents, and other pests. Here’s what you need to know about keeping your home in Lower Merion pest-free:

Rodent Control in Lower Merion

Rodents are far from stupid — like us, they prefer to spend their winters in comfy accommodations with plenty of warmth and good things to eat. They typically seek shelter in human homes after seasonal drops in temperature. Even if just two rodents make their way inside your home, that number will quickly multiply, and you could wind up with a fully-fledged infestation by the middle of winter. Unlike rodents in the wild, rodents that gain access to a warm indoor environment keep breeding through the winter.

The best way to prevent them from setting up shop in your house is to ensure all possible exterior entry points are properly sealed up. However, this is easier said than done because the average mouse can squeeze itself through an opening the size of a dime. Waiting too long to seal the openings only ensures that rodents are trapped inside. Also, keep in mind that although autumn is the season with the most rodent activity as they try to find a place to spend the winter, rodents are opportunistic by nature and will access a home at any time of the year.

Fortunately, Viking Pest Control brings years of experience to the table when handling mice control and rat control in Lower Merion. Our trained technicians realize that pest control doesn’t have any one-size-fits-all strategies. With that in mind, we’ll thoroughly evaluate the situation in your home and create a customized solution to ensure that rodent pests don’t become a permanent fixture in your home.

Insect Pest Control in Lower Merion

Another household pest that is likely to be casing your home for comfortable winter lodging is the common cockroach. Like their rodent counterparts, they often gain access to home interiors through cracks and tiny holes. Still, they can also come in through even the slightest gaps in window and door seals, and if they’re close enough, they can quickly scurry inside unseen when household occupants are going in and out of open doors. Cockroaches tend to be secretive, meaning homeowners might not notice them until their numbers have grown so high they can’t easily hide.

Spring are summer are also prime seasons for insect activity. Viking Pest Control routinely deals with ants, mosquitos, fleas, spiders, bees, and hornets. We also perform termite inspections and bed bug inspections and treat affected areas until no signs of these pests exist. We’ll also work with you to create preventive strategies to minimize the chances of these pests getting a foothold in your home environment in the first place.
