Spiders
The predators of the insect world (scorpions, spiders, centipedes, etc.) follow their prey into our homes during this increased activity. They enter through cracks, crevices, damaged areas around our doors, windows, eaves, weep holes, plumbing penetrations, electrical/utility connections, etc. They are not seeking us, but interaction between people and these “stinging” insects is inevitable when we share the same living space.
Termites
When it comes to protecting your commercial or residential property from termites and other destructive insects, Dave’s provides a safe, effective, and professional job every time. Our years of education, training, modern technology, and experience will provide your real estate with the best protection possible.
Bed Bugs
Bed Bugs are nasty parasites that feed on human blood. They are extremely resilient and good at hiding. That’s why professional pest control is so important in eradicating and preventing bed bugs. We are knowledgeable in what treatments are most effective and will create a customized treatment for you. Give Dave’s a call and don’t let bed bugs be your house guests anymore!
Fleas
As cooler weather becomes more routine and many insects species have reached their annual population zenith, we see significant surges of activity from fleas, ticks, crickets, ants, spiders, etc. This is the time of year where numerous instances of yellow jackets and hornets are sited around homes. Any observed entrance and exit locations should not be sealed as this will trap them in the wall. They will bore holes through interior walls to escape and enter your home.
Cockroaches
Dave’s Pest Control has been providing homeowners and commercial property owners with complete pest control services throughout the Worcester County area for over 45 years. Dave’s services are designed to protect your environment by following the changing habits of pest populations throughout the New England seasons, and by treating and eliminating property damaging insects and rodents. Dave’s exterminator services include cockroach control, termite service, complete bed bug services, bee removal, and more!
Silverfish
This is the time of year when all of your “over-wintering” pests emerge from their hiding places to reproduce. Carpenter ants start swarming (another wood destroying insect). Also, the fire ants, wasps, pill bugs, millipedes, earwigs, mites, spiders, scorpions, silverfish, roaches, etc. become more active and populations significantly increase.
Bees
Inside and out, Charlie knows that we only want treatments that are safe for our pets as well as for the bees and butterflies in our gardens. The natural treatments he uses have been extremely effective and they smell good.
Wasps
“I highly recommend Daves pest control. I had a nest of yellow jackets under my front porch and wasps in the eves of my house. Jake came out and did ALL the eves around the house and got the yellow jackets in the ground. I woke up this morning bee free!! Awesome. They were really quick in their response time also. Great job Daves.”
Ticks
Don’t let the fear of ticks and their potential to carry Lyme disease ruin your summer. If you are experiencing a tick problem near your home or on your property, it’s time to contact a professional. Tick control requires the skill and experience of professional pest control technicians. Dave’s Pest Control is skilled and experienced in dealing with ticks. Our technicians use only the latest and most proven methods to eliminate the presence of annoying pests from your home and property.
Crickets
*Pests included in all plans: Roaches, Ants, Centipedes/Millipedes, Crickets, Spider, Silverfish, Springtails, Earwigs, Bees/Hornets/Wasps, and occasional invaders, such as Western Conifer Seed Bugs (Stink Bugs), Flies, Lady Bugs etc...
Earwigs
Our own cultural activities contribute to pest infestations in our homes during the winter months. The winter clothes we bring out of storage in the attics, boxes, backs of closets, etc. may bring out clothes moths, silverfish, roaches, etc. Holiday materials bought at the store or brought out of storage may have been waiting for a year to be used. Christmas trees may have bark beetles, aphids, mites, etc. Also, other decorations you adorn the home with may have infestations. The plants, you bring in from outside to protect from harsh weather often bring hitchhikers that are not wanted. The wood for your fireplace may carry beetles, termites, ants, roaches, centipedes, scorpions, earwigs, etc. as unwanted guests.
Mosquitoes
Tick & Mosquito Control: Mosquito prevention and population reduction is the most effective long-term approach to mosquito control. There are many methods used for mosquito control. Learn more about Dave’s Pest Control Tick & Mosquito Control Services.
Flies
Numerous pests we see during the rest of the year “over winter” to hibernate or pupate in our attics, crawl spaces, wall voids, under exterior siding, etc. Many of these pests (cluster flies, ladybugs, boxleder bugs, stink bugs, yellow jackets, etc.) are finding a safe and warm place in winter so they can start all over again in spring.
Centipedes
Millipedes
Beetles
Every year thousands of homes are attacked by termites or other wood-destroying pests. Termites alone cause over $5 billion per year in damage. The Subterranean termite is the number one wood-destroying pest in the United States, however, there are many other wood-destroying pests not to be overlooked; Powder post beetles, carpenter ants, and carpenter bees.

Yellowjackets
Moths
Stink Bugs
Stinging Insects
Mites
Springtails
Aphids
Pill Bugs
The cool weather initiates rodent activity around the home and announces the pre-cursor for the over-wintering insects to begin looking for that winter resting location. The falling leaves and decaying vegetation materials accumulate around and provide food and harborage for pill bugs, millipedes, earwigs, etc. These nuisance pests then become invasive and show up inside your home in significant numbers.
It doesn’t take a very big space for a mouse or rat to gain entry into your home. You may think they can’t fit, but we assure you they can — mice can fit through an opening as small as a dime! If you see signs of rodent activity in your home, or wish to forestall future invasion, it’s time to give Dave’s Pest Service a call. Our rodent control team will take care of rodents who have taken up residence and seal any openings that could provide entry.
Mice
Rats
Squirrels
This is the time of year raccoons, possums, skunks, squirrels, etc. are wanting a nice dry, warm location to bed down. They bring with them ticks, fleas, mites, etc.
