"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."
Chimney has excessive creosote built up in chimney and all over cap from excessive wood burning. Recommended she have flies cleaned before a chimney fire occurs

Large nest on the bed frame. These were on all areas of each support board. This one single bed had thousands of live bed bugs on it. Each room was the same throughout the house. This case went on far too long

"They did an awesome job sealing & laying traps indoor & outdoor. They are 100% better then when I hired Terminix. With Terminix they just laid sticky traps. Rodents was still entering my property. Once I contracted with Labs Pest Control, Rodents are no longer an issue they sealed every opening that Terminix failed to do. I use them for my home & also for my Parents rental property. We absolute love their prompt service & their prices can't be beat. Terminix & Orkin is a total rip off. 10 out of 10 highly recommend."

"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."

FAQs for rodent pest control service projects in Boston, MA

Rodent exclusion seals every gap, vent, and crack that rodents use to sneak inside your home. Most homeowners pay an average of $200 to $600 for this add-on. By blocking entry points, you create a long-term barrier that cuts down on repeat infestations and helps protect both your family and your property.

Pros start with an inspection, then place tamper-resistant bait stations and traps in high-traffic spots. They’ll also seal entry points and clean droppings to reduce health risks. Follow-up visits confirm that the plan worked and that no new rodents have moved in. This step-by-step approach removes the current infestation and helps keep your home rodent-free going forward.

A trained pest-control pro can pinpoint hidden access points using a flashlight, thermal imaging, and plenty of crawl-space sleuthing. During an inspection, the specialist maps every gap, vent, or pipe run that rats use, then explains how to seal each one. This detailed report lets you tackle the weak spots immediately and dramatically lowers the odds of another infestation.

Rodent prevention starts with managing food and entry points. Store pantry items in airtight containers, take out trash promptly, and keep pet food sealed. Outside, trim vegetation and stack firewood away from the house. Inside, seal gaps with steel wool or hardware cloth. A tidy yard and a buttoned-up home give rats and mice few reasons—or routes—to move in.

For wall or attic nests, pros place snap traps or CO2-powered units in the exact runways rats use, then return to remove carcasses and reset as needed. Poison is risky indoors because rats may die in hidden spots, creating odors or health issues, so most technicians avoid it. Once trapping is complete, they’ll seal entry points and clean droppings to finish the job.

Plan on several weeks, especially for larger infestations. Your pro will set traps, return every few days to collect rats, and adjust placement until activity stops. Final visits include sealing access points and sanitizing affected areas. Timelines vary, but most homes are rat-free after two to four follow-ups. Prompt scheduling and good sanitation can shorten the process.
