Exterminator Prévost
Prévost stretches through the Laurentians along the North River and the P’tit Train du Nord linear park, between wooded hills and residential neighbourhoods like Shawbridge and the Domaine Laurentien. This dense forest cover and often older housing mostly attract carpenter ants, field mice and wasps. Our exterminator in Prévost treats at the source, from the mountain house to the neighbourhood near the river.

From wooded mountain neighbourhoods to the banks of the North River and the linear park, each sector of Prévost has its own buildings and dominant pests.

What we see coming back in Prévost, from the wooded neighbourhoods to the riverside, throughout the year.
The Laurentian thaw wakes the carpenter ants
The humidity of the North River and the mountain woods soaks the wood of the houses, where carpenter ants come out with the first warm days to hollow out joists and decks.
Carpenter ants risingWasps on the mountainside
Wasps hang their nests from the eaves and sheds of houses up high, taking advantage of the hills and the wooded lots sheltered from the wind.
Wasp peakField mice come down from the woods
The cool Laurentian air pushes wood mice and field mice from the woodlots and hills toward the neighbourhood houses and cottages.
Rodents on the riseThe mountain house in the warmth
The long Laurentian winter freezes the insects, but a mouse that got in in the fall settles into a heated basement or roof void and keeps raising its litter there until spring.
Rodents in the warmthWhat shapes our work here
Three realities specific to Prévost that guide our method.
The cover feeds carpenter ants and mice
Prévost is heavily wooded, with neighbourhoods on hillsides. This forest cover and damp wood are ideal ground for carpenter ants and field mice, which we trace to the building.
Water and soft wood attract insects
The banks of the North River and the P’tit Train du Nord stay very humid, which softens the wood of residences, favouring carpenter ants and ants.
Older buildings let things through
The old Shawbridge core and former converted cottages offer a thousand passages to rodents and insects. We seal older buildings without distorting them.
Three situations we often handle here
Typical Prévost cases, seen in the field.
Wooded house in the Domaine Laurentien
Sawdust under a deck on a wooded hillside reveals a nest. We trace back to the parent nest, often in a tree on the lot, and treat both.
Edge house in the fall
In the fall, wood mice come down from the woodlots into a basement. We seal the perimeter and set secure bait stations along the wall.
Shawbridge apartment
Cockroaches settle in an old apartment in the Shawbridge core. Targeted gel in cracks and checking of neighbouring units.
Our extermination services in Prévost
Six pests dominate Prévost. For each one, a method suited to the wooded neighbourhoods and the riverside.
Carpenter ants
The wooded cover of the hills and the damp wood of Prévost’s residences feed carpenter ants. We follow the trail back to the parent nest, often in a tree, before treating.
Mice
Houses at the edge of the woods and mountain cottages let mice and wood mice in through cracks and poorly insulated walls. We seal the perimeter before installing discreet bait stations.
Cockroaches
Cockroaches settle in the old apartments and businesses of Shawbridge. Targeted gel in cracks and checking of neighbouring units to stop the spread.
Rats
The banks of the North River and Route 117 can bring Norway rats toward the buildings. Careful exclusion of the access points and secure baits out of reach of animals.
Bed bugs
A return from a trip or a used piece of furniture can bring bed bugs into a Prévost bedroom. We target mattress, box spring and baseboards with a targeted treatment, without throwing out the furniture.
Wasps
Eaves and sheds of mountainside houses give wasps nesting sites sheltered from the wind. Safe removal at height and sealing of the access points to prevent a return.
