About our service
Pest control for New Kensington, PA
New Kensington has about 11,900 residents and a mix of parks, community buildings and neighborhoods, including Glassmere. The population has slipped a little in recent years, which can leave some buildings quieter than others, and empty or lightly used spaces are exactly where mice, cockroaches and spiders like to settle unnoticed.
Natural Pest Solutions helps New Kensington homeowners, landlords and shop owners with ant treatment, rodent control, cockroach control and a careful pest inspection. We use natural pest control options and non-toxic, low-impact products that are safe around kids and pets. Contact us for a free quote, and take comfort in the fact that we never require a long-term contract.

Pests in New Kensington
What we deal with most around New Kensington, PA
In shared and multi-unit buildings, cockroaches and bed bugs can move through walls and pipe chases from one unit to another, which is why treating a single apartment rarely solves the problem. Prompt bed bug treatment, careful laundering and reducing clutter all help, and neighbors working together get the best results. Mice are another frequent complaint in older buildings with gaps around pipes and foundations.
Homes and yards bring their own pests. Carpenter ants and termites target damp or aging wood, mosquitoes breed in tires, buckets and clogged gutters, and wasps nest under porch ceilings and railings. In the fall, stink bugs and boxelder bugs crowd onto sunny walls and find their way inside through window frames and attic vents.
Weather and pests
How New Kensington's weather affects pest activity
Summers in New Kensington are warm and winters are cold. July highs average about 83 degrees, January lows about 20, and roughly 14 days a year hit 90 degrees or higher. About 117 nights a year are at or below freezing. Annual precipitation is near 42 inches, and June is the wettest month at about 4.3 inches. These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station and serve as a guide, not a forecast.
June's rain is an early cue for mosquito season, so check for water in places you might not think about, like old planters, tarps and low spots by the garage. The same dampness gets into siding and porch wood, which brings in carpenter ants. Trimming plants back from the house lets walls dry faster after each storm.
Cold nights push mice and other rodents to look for warmth. Early fall is the time to find and close openings, especially where pipes, cables and vents enter the house, and to keep trash and food storage tightly sealed. In late winter, a visit from a technician can catch any activity before spring, when ants and spiders start moving again.
How we fix it
Pest control services in New Kensington
Ant treatment in New Kensington
Ants are among the most common calls we get in New Kensington, 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 New Kensington
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and New Kensington 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 New Kensington
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 New Kensington home is built.
Cockroach control in New Kensington
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 New Kensington apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in New Kensington
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 New Kensington
New Kensington'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.
