Lenape Park Floodplain and 1972 Neighborhoods

The creek's floodplain and the park's wet areas hold standing water into summer, giving mosquitoes a long season on nearby streets. The same damp soil helps termites reach foundations.

Census (ACS) estimates put the median home at 1972, with older houses near the center of town and about 32% rented. Split-levels of that era let mice in under garage-level doors.

Lenape Park is a long, mostly natural greenway, and the woods, meadows and trails along the creek reach the back fences of many borough streets. Deer use that corridor to move between Perkasie and Sellersville, so blacklegged ticks are a real concern for families who walk the park or let children play at the yard's edge. Tree cover there also keeps leaf litter deep and damp under the canopy, which shelters ticks and the mice that carry them through winter.

The borough's older core, built up around the rail line, has frame and brick houses with stone cellars and front porches, while the 1970s neighborhoods on the hills have split-levels and bi-levels with lower-level family rooms partly below grade. Those lower rooms run damp, inviting centipedes, camel crickets and silverfish. About a third of households rent, often in apartments carved from older houses, where cockroaches and bed bugs spread through shared basements and stairwells.

Our Route North to Perkasie

We go up I-476 and continue on Route 309 toward Sellersville and Perkasie. Visits are set by appointment because of the distance. Thom and his team inspect the yard, basement and foundation free of charge, and a written quote follows.

Perkasie, Sellersville and the East Branch Perkiomen

Perkasie and Sellersville sit on either side of Lenape Park along the creek, both in the Pennridge School District. We also serve Silverdale and East Rockhill Township nearby. The East Branch Perkiomen Creek flows through Lenape Park between Perkasie and Sellersville, and the relocated South Perkasie Covered Bridge now stands in the park, one of the borough's best-known sights. Menlo Park, near downtown, is home to a restored carousel. Pennridge High School sits in Perkasie, serving the borough and surrounding townships in the Pennridge School District, and Route 309 passes just west on its way toward Quakertown. Compact downtown blocks, a large share of rentals and hillside split-levels above a wooded floodplain give Perkasie a varied list of calls: mosquito and tick treatments near the park, mouse sealing at garage-level doors, termite checks in damp soil and roach or bed bug work in divided houses.
