About our service
Pest control for Westwood, MA
Homeowners in Westwood, in Norfolk County, live alongside a lot of protected land. Between Buckmaster Pond, Perry Crouse Pond Conservation Land, Rock Meadow Brook Conservation Land and Coach Lane Conservation Land, plenty of yards back up to woods, water or open ground, and that setting shapes which pests turn up at the door. The city has about 16,500 residents, and every one of those households is a possible landing spot for ants in the kitchen, mice in the garage or termites near the sill.
Natural Pest Solutions provides ant treatment, rodent control and pest inspection for Westwood homes and small businesses. We rely on natural pest control options and non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets, and there is no long-term contract to sign. Ask for a free quote and we will explain what we found and what we recommend before any work starts.

Pests we treat around Westwood
Pests in Westwood
What we deal with most around Westwood, MA
Wooded lots and ponds put mosquitoes and ticks on the list for most Westwood yards. Standing water in a birdbath, a clogged gutter or an old planter is enough to make mosquito control worth thinking about by midsummer, and ticks wait in leaf litter and tall grass along the edge of a lawn. Mice and other rodents are the other steady visitors, slipping through gaps around pipes and garage doors as soon as the nights turn cold.
Carpenter ants and termites are the quieter worries. Both go after wood that stays damp, such as a leaking window frame, a deck post that touches soil or a rotted fascia board. Spiders and stink bugs tend to appear in the fall as insects look for a warm place to sit out the winter. Catching these early keeps a small nuisance from turning into a repair bill.
Weather and pests
How Westwood's weather affects pest activity
The figures below are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station, so treat them as a guide and not a forecast. Westwood averages about 44 inches of precipitation a year, and October is the wettest month at roughly 4.5 inches. July is the warmest month with highs near 86 degrees, and about 16 days a year reach 90 or higher.
Winter is long here. January lows average around 21 degrees, and roughly 139 nights a year fall to freezing or below. That many cold nights sends rodents looking for attics, basements and wall voids from late fall on, while cluster flies and stink bugs slip into siding and window frames on the first sunny days after a cold snap.
The wet autumn matters too. Rain in October soaks mulch beds and foundation edges, which suits termites and carpenter ants, and warm summer stretches speed up mosquito breeding. A sensible year covers sealing gaps in the fall, clearing gutters before the heavy rain, and checking damp wood in the spring.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Westwood
Ant treatment in Westwood
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Westwood, 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 Westwood
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Westwood 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 Westwood
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 Westwood home is built.
Cockroach control in Westwood
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 Westwood apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Westwood
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 Westwood
Westwood'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.
