Pest Control and Exterminator Service in Silverdale, PA

Route 113 shops and Pennridge farmland

Fields and hedgerows around the borough keep mice and voles close to houses, and harvest season sends them indoors, often straight into garages and crawl spaces.

Homes from the early 1980s have outlived their builder termite treatments. Small storefronts and food businesses along Route 113 face mice, flies and cockroaches drawn by deliveries and trash.

A 1982 median build year puts most Silverdale houses in the era of split-levels, bi-levels and modest colonials on block foundations, many with a crawl space under part of the house and a slab under the rest. The joint where those two meet is a weak point: soil stays damp in the crawl space, vapor barriers from forty years ago have torn or shifted, and termites and camel crickets both take advantage.

Silverdale covers only a small patch of ground, so open land is never more than a few streets away. Voles tunnel under lawns from the hedgerows, field mice follow foundation plantings to garage doors, and ants march in from patios poured against the house. At roughly 88% owner-occupied, most residential calls come from long-time owners, while the commercial side comes from the handful of shops and food businesses on the main road.

Reaching Silverdale from our Media base

We travel north on the Blue Route and Route 113. On site, Thom or one of his crew inspects the foundation, garage and kitchen, or the storage and trash areas of a business. Homeowners and shop owners alike get a free inspection and a quote on paper before work starts.

Silverdale between Perkasie and Hilltown

Silverdale is a small Pennridge-area borough on Route 113, surrounded by Hilltown Township and a short drive from Perkasie and Sellersville. Route 113 serves as the borough's main street and continues southwest to Souderton, so most of the local storefronts, a few food businesses and the post office line that one road. Students attend the Pennridge School District, which also serves Perkasie, Sellersville, Dublin and the surrounding townships. Beyond the last houses, the land opens into Hilltown's farm fields, hedgerows and small woodlots. Because the borough is so compact, the pattern of our work here is simple: rodent and termite work on 1980s homes at the field edge, recurring service for the small businesses on Route 113, and seasonal ant, stink bug and tick calls from owners who have watched the same fields for years.
