Serving Boston homeowners
Pest control in Boston, Massachusetts
Boston's pest problems are built into its greatest asset: the housing. Triple-deckers and brick row houses that have stood for a century-plus mean stone foundations, shared walls, and a hundred years of patched utility openings — a transit system for mice, rats, and roaches that no single unit can fix alone. Add winters that push every rodent in the neighborhood indoors by November and one of the country's toughest urban rat environments, and Greater Boston rewards pest control that takes exclusion — physically sealing the building — as seriously as treatment. That's how our Boston technicians work.
What Boston homes are up against
Four hard seasons — cold winters drive rodents indoors; short intense summers concentrate insect activity. Triple-deckers, brick row houses, and homes over a century old with stone foundations, shared walls, and generations of utility penetrations. The result is steady local pressure from the region's usual suspects:
- rats
- overwintering mice
- carpenter ants
- German cockroaches in multifamily housing
- bed bugs
- seasonal mosquitoes
Year-round home protection
Boston's pest calendar is sharper than the South's — carpenter ants and stinging insects own the warm months, and rodents own the cold ones — but a century-old triple-decker in Dorchester or Somerville always has traffic somewhere. Year-round protection here means a program that shifts with New England's seasons instead of treating every visit the same.
- Whole-home initial service, interior and exterior
- Recurring exterior barrier treatments, every season
- Web and wasp-nest removal from eaves and entryways
- Interior treatment whenever you need it — just ask
- Free re-services between visits if pests return
- Written service report after every visit
Our services in Boston
-
Rodent Control in Boston
Catching mice isn't the hard part — keeping them out is. Real rodent control is removal plus exclusion: we find the entry points and seal them, permanently.
-
Termite Control in Boston
Termites do their damage silently, hollowing wood from the inside. By the time you see evidence, the colony has usually been feeding for years — protection starts with a professional inspection.
-
Mosquito Control in Boston
You shouldn't have to choose between your backyard and getting bitten. Season-long mosquito service targets where they rest and where they breed — not just where they fly.

General Pest Control questions from Boston homeowners
Which areas of Boston does Urbanex serve?
Our local Boston team serves homeowners across the metro, including Dorchester, Somerville, Cambridge, Quincy, Medford and surrounding communities.
What pests does the home protection plan cover?
The plan covers the common household invaders: ants, spiders, cockroaches, wasps, crickets, silverfish, millipedes, and mice, among others. Termites, mosquitoes, bed bugs, and German cockroach infestations are specialized services with their own treatment protocols and separate pricing — we'll tell you plainly if what you have needs one of those instead.
Do I need to be home for every service?
No. After the initial visit, recurring services focus on the exterior barrier, so most customers don't need to be home. If you'd like interior attention on any visit, let us know and we'll schedule it when you're there.
Is the treatment safe for kids and pets?
We use EPA-registered products applied by licensed technicians according to their labels, with targeted placement rather than blanket spraying. Your technician will tell you exactly what was applied, where, and any short re-entry intervals — typically just letting treated surfaces dry.
What if pests come back between visits?
We come back the same or next day, free. Re-services between scheduled visits are unlimited and included in the plan — no fine print, no per-trip charge.

Can’t say enough good things about J W and his team! We use them in the summer for mosquitoes and bee extermination. And during the winter time we use them for mice extermination. Before we found them, we were using Terminix and noticed no decrease in mosquitoes in our outdoor area. Urbanex has been an absolute game changer. They provide excellent service from start to finish. They are punctual, professional, and clearly explained the treatment- highly recommend!
