Every Call Starts With Finding the Way In
Somerton Pest Control works across Northeast Philadelphia, in Somerton, Bustleton, Fox Chase and Mayfair, and out to Bensalem, Huntingdon Valley and Cheltenham. Much of that ground is brick rowhouses and twins, many a century old, with shared walls, stone cellars and gaps where pipes and wires pass through.
Manager Kristian Bradshaw’s first job in the trade was tracing mice along a gas line under a South Philadelphia rowhouse, and the work here still begins at the entry point and ends with a last walk around the outside, checking that every sealed gap is closed.
General Pest Control
Cockroaches, ants, spiders, silverfish and fleas are the everyday insects of older city houses, and each one is treated where it lives and travels: targeted applications indoors, and along the foundation and the entry points outside.
In connected rowhouses, roaches and ants move between homes through shared walls and keep going well past the warm months, so the work looks at the gaps around pipes and baseboards as closely as the rooms themselves.
Homes and small businesses that want to stay ahead of problems can keep recurring maintenance visits on the calendar, with bait stations and monitoring traps checked and treated areas kept under watch.

Rodent Control
Mice and rats come in through openings most people never notice: the gap where a gas line enters a cellar wall, a torn vent screen, a loose board along the roofline.
Rodent control starts with finding how the animals get in. Then comes trapping, and sealing the openings around pipes, vents, rooflines and cellar walls so the next ones cannot follow.
Droppings along a basement wall, gnawed food packaging and scratching inside the walls at night are the usual first signs.

Reviews of Our Pest Control Work
Kept finding droppings in the basement and it turned out to be rats. Kristian didn't just put out bait and leave. He walked the whole outside of the house and found a gap where the gas line comes in and a broken vent screen…
Had Somerton come out for an ant problem in our apartment kitchen that the landlord kept ignoring. He was way more thorough than I expected, found where they were coming in under the sink and treated all of it…
Woke up with bites and found bed bugs in the seams of our mattress so we called to get an inspection. The tech checked every room and showed us where they were hiding, mostly the bedroom and the couch…
Had someone come out for a wasp nest under our back deck. He knew right away what kind they were and told us what to expect…
