Pest Control and Exterminator Service in Tredyffrin Township, PA

Park Woodland, Valley Creek and Half-Century-Old Colonials

The median home dates to 1974 in Census (ACS) estimates, and about 26 percent of households rent. Fifty-year-old sills, decks and finished basements are where termite damage turns up.

Deer shuttle blacklegged ticks between park land and wooded lots, in a state with some of the nation's highest Lyme counts. Shade along Valley Creek keeps mosquito water around.

The township stretches from the wooded hills at the park's edge across the Great Valley to the ridge where the Main Line stations sit, so lots range from steep, shaded slopes to open subdivisions. Colonials and split-levels from the 1960s and 1970s often have decks added later, cedar or wood siding, and lower levels paneled over block. Termites can work behind that paneling unseen, and stained siding on shaded walls softens where carpenter ants and carpenter bees settle.

Stone walls, hedgerows and stream corridors left from the farm era thread between neighborhoods, giving white-footed mice, chipmunks and ticks protected lanes right up to garages. Spotted lanternflies, inside PDA's quarantine across Chester County, gather on tree-of-heaven along Route 202 and the rail line, then spread to decks and yard trees in late summer.

Driving Route 252 from Media to Paoli

Route 252 runs almost directly from Media to Paoli. Thom and his team inspect the house, yard edge and outbuildings, then put their price in writing at no charge.

Covering Chesterbrook, Devon and the T/E School District Neighborhoods

Tredyffrin shares the Tredyffrin/Easttown School District with Easttown Township, and we serve both. Chesterbrook townhomes sit closest to the park, where mouse pressure runs highest. About 32,000 people live in the township, which takes in the villages of Paoli, Berwyn, Devon, Strafford, Daylesford and Chesterbrook, most of them clustered around stations on SEPTA's Paoli/Thorndale Line. Conestoga High School anchors the Tredyffrin/Easttown School District, the Chester Valley Trail crosses the Great Valley near the Route 202 office corridor, and Wilson Farm Park keeps open fields in Chesterbrook. Because most homes are owner-occupied and so many back onto woods, a Tredyffrin visit usually treats the outdoor edge as carefully as the house: ticks and mice at the tree line, termites and carpenter ants in aging wood, and lanternflies in season.
