About our service
Pest control for Spencer, MA
Spencer's parks are hard to miss on the local map, including Prouty Park, Luther Hill Park, O'Gara Park, Powder Mill Park and Ralph Warren Park, and with roughly 12,100 residents in Worcester County, there is a lot of shared open space. Parks, brooks and swamps such as Morgan Swamp are good for people and good for the insects and animals that follow them toward nearby homes.
Natural Pest Solutions provides mosquito control, rodent control, ant treatment and spider control in Spencer, along with a pest inspection when the source of a problem is unclear. Our natural pest control options rely on non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets, and we never require a long-term contract.

Pests we treat around Spencer
Pests in Spencer
What we deal with most around Spencer, MA
Near parks and wet ground, mosquitoes and ticks are the summer regulars. Mosquitoes breed in swampy edges and in water that sits in gutters, planters and toys, while ticks live in leaf litter and tall grass. Anyone using the trails around Derby Farm Woods or Turkey Hill Brook Park should check themselves and their pets when they come home, and fleas often ride in on the same animals.
Snow is a big part of the year here, and it sends rodents looking for shelter. Mice use gaps around pipes, vents and garage doors, and carpenter ants move into wood softened by moisture. Wasps build in eaves and sheds, spiders follow the insects, and stink bugs and cockroaches turn up in warm, sheltered parts of the house. Termites are worth a yearly check wherever wood meets soil.
Weather and pests
How Spencer's weather affects pest activity
Spencer receives a lot of winter weather. January lows average about 17 degrees, and the area sees roughly 73 inches of snow in a typical year, along with about 48 inches of total precipitation. October is the wettest month at about 4.8 inches. July highs average around 80 degrees, and only about 3 days a year reach 90 degrees or higher. These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so they are a guide, not a forecast.
About 130 nights a year fall at or below freezing, and deep snow can pile against foundations, hiding gaps and holding moisture against siding. Rodents take advantage of both. We recommend shoveling snow back from the house when you can, keeping vents clear and sealing entry points in early fall before the ground freezes.
The cool summer keeps heat-loving pests in check, but mosquitoes and ants still find plenty of warm, damp days. Spring snowmelt can leave low spots wet for weeks, so check drainage and clear gutters after the thaw. October rain, meanwhile, adds soggy leaves and wet soil around the house, so rake debris away from the foundation and finish exterior repairs before winter.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Spencer
Ant treatment in Spencer
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Spencer, from sugar ants in kitchens to carpenter ants in damp or damaged wood. Activity climbs quickly once spring temperatures arrive. We find the trails and the nest, treat where the colony lives and follow up so they do not simply return.
Rodent control in Spencer
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Spencer buildings offer plenty of all three. With a long cold season, the pressure builds every fall. Our exclusion-based approach combines inspection, sealing entry points, trapping and monitoring, so you fix the reason rodents got in, not only the rodents you can see.
Termite control in Spencer
Termites are a quiet threat because damage often goes unnoticed for years. Regular moisture around foundations makes regular checks especially worthwhile. We inspect for mud tubes, damaged wood and moisture problems, then treat with a plan matched to how your Spencer home is built.
Cockroach control in Spencer
Cockroaches are hard to get rid of with store-bought sprays. We locate the hiding places, treat cracks, crevices and voids, and use monitoring so we know the treatment worked. It is a common request in Spencer apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Spencer
Most spiders are harmless, but nobody wants webs around the door or a spider in the basement. We remove webs and egg sacs, treat the perimeter and reduce the insects that spiders feed on, which keeps them from coming back.
Mosquito control in Spencer
Spencer's wet weather makes mosquitoes a real nuisance. We treat resting areas in your yard, help you find and remove breeding sites and schedule visits through the warm season so you can use your yard again.
