    In Lanaudière, your corner of the country decides your critters

    Between the fast-growing suburbs of the North Shore, the large farm plain toward the river and the lakes of Matawinie, every sector attracts its own visitors. Find yours, we know the terrain.

    ZONE 01

    Urban North Shore

    4 sectors
    RepentignyJ5Y–J6A · North Shore
    Dense residential neighbourhoods and rental sectors close to the river. A lot of turnover, and pests that move from one unit to the next.
    Bed bugsMiceWaspsAnts
    Terrebonne and LachenaieJ6V–J6Y · Les Moulins
    New developments springing up every year. Construction disturbs rodents, which take refuge in freshly built homes.
    MiceCarpenter antsWaspsRats
    MascoucheJ7K–J7L · Les Moulins
    Residential sectors bordered by woodlots and golf courses. Carpenter ants like mature trees and wooden decks.

    L’Assomption and CharlemagneJ5W, J5Z · L’Assomption
    Old village core surrounded by farmland. The fields push wood mice toward homes as soon as the harvests end.

    ZONE 02

    Farm plain and river

    3 sectors
    Joliette and St-Charles-BorroméeJ6E · Joliette
    The residential and commercial centre of the Joliette area, plexes in the centre, fields all around. A mix that attracts rodents and structural insects alike.
    MiceCockroachesAntsWasps
    Berthierville and LavaltrieJ0K 1A0, J5T · D’Autray
    Along the St. Lawrence, old houses and damp basements. Riverbank rats and cluster flies thrive there.

    Saint-Lin and Saint-JacquesJ5M, J0K 2R0 · Montcalm
    Fast-growing villages surrounded by farms and woodlots. Wood mice in the fall, carpenter ants in extensions and wooden sheds.

    ZONE 03

    Matawinie · forest and vacation country

    4 sectors
    RawdonJ0K · Matawinie
    Lakes, cottages and large forests. Carpenter ants love damp wood, and mice move in as soon as a cottage empties for the winter.

    Saint-Donat and N.-D.-de-la-MerciJ0T · Upper Matawinie
    Mountain resort area near Mont-Tremblant park. Log cottages, abundant wildlife and ticks on the rise.

    Through the seasons

    In Lanaudière, which critter and when

    From the river to the summits of Matawinie, every season brings its critter. Here is the calendar, so we act at the right time rather than in a crisis.

    Apr → Jun

    Spring

    At the thaw, everything restarts. Carpenter ants leave the stumps of the North Shore woodlots, queen wasps choose their nest site, and ant colonies reorganize. Acting now avoids a big colony in July.

    Carpenter ants wake up
    Jul → Aug

    Summer

    Heat and humidity make wasp populations explode around pools and picnics, while vacation season brings people, and ticks, back around the lakes of Matawinie. Nests reach their maximum size.

    Wasps and ticks
    Sep → Nov

    Fall

    The great return of the pests. Harvests over, wood mice and field mice converge on the homes of the plain, and cluster flies blanket south-facing facades before slipping into the walls.

    Rodents and flies
    Dec → Mar

    Winter

    It all happens under cover. In the heated walls and locked cottages of Matawinie, mice breed year-round. The ideal season to track down hidden access points and sanitize without waiting for the damage.

    Three realities that make Lanaudière

    The Matawinie forest, the large farm plain and the spreading suburbs give Lanaudière a unique profile. Here is what an exterminator from here watches closely.

    Since 2024, municipalities in all six Lanaudière MRCs have been recognized as endemic

    Lyme disease is moving north

    Since 2024, municipalities in all six Lanaudière MRCs have been recognized as endemic for Lyme disease, from the south of the region to Matawinie. By managing vegetation around the house and checking yourself after a walk in the forest, you greatly reduce the risk, and we show you how.

    Source: Lanaudière Public Health Branch (June 21, 2024) and INSPQ, list of municipalities in the endemic zone (June 2026)
    Vacation country
    Lakes
    Many cottages line the lakes of Matawinie, often closed part of the year

    The empty cottage, a mouse paradise

    A cottage closed in the fall quickly becomes a perfect shelter for mice and carpenter ants, quiet and warm in the wood. We secure the access points before closing and sanitize on return in spring.

    Farm plain
    Oct
    Every fall, the large plain between Joliette and the river releases its rodents and flies toward homes

    When the fields empty, it all moves in

    After the harvests, wood mice and field mice look for a roof, and cluster flies invade sunny walls by the thousands. We seal the entry points and treat before they settle in for the winter.

    Structural risk

    Carpenter ants

    Common in the woodlots of Mascouche and the cottages of Rawdon. Rather than scatter them, we target the parent nest, often hidden in a damp joist, with a bait the colony feeds to itself all the way to the queen. A lasting result, not a mere respite.
