Pest Control and Exterminator Service in Exton, PA

Newer apartments and busy kitchens around Exton Square

Newer buildings are tighter, but they are not immune. Bed bugs arrive with moving boxes and secondhand furniture, and frequent lease turnover gives them more chances. Restaurants clustered along Route 100 and US 30 generate grease, cardboard and dumpster waste that draw German cockroaches, flies and mice.

Each fall, stink bugs pile onto the sunny sides of mid-rise siding and slip in around window frames.

Much of Exton's housing went up from the late 1980s through the 2000s as large apartment communities and townhome developments around the US 30 bypass and Route 100. Buildings in these complexes typically share corridors, laundry rooms, trash compactors and garages, and units turn over every year or two. Each move-in brings boxes, mattresses and furniture through the same halls, which is how bed bugs and German cockroaches travel from one building to the next.

The commercial land is just as busy. Restaurant pads, grocery stores and office parks sit beside the apartments, with dumpster corrals, grease bins and loading docks that feed mice and attract flies. Stormwater basins and wooded strips left between developments hold water after storms and give rodents shelter close to ground-floor units.

Single homes nearby are newer than most of the county's, but builder termite protection in the soil fades with time, and mulch beds topped up every spring keep the sills on 1990s houses damp.

West Whiteland, the Chester Valley Trail and Route 100

Exton lies within West Whiteland Township, where Route 100 meets US 30. It has an Amtrak and SEPTA station, and the Chester Valley Trail begins here. Lionville is a few miles north. Exton Square and the Main Street at Exton shopping center draw restaurants and stores to the US 30 and Route 100 crossing, and the station on the Keystone corridor brings commuters who often rent nearby. Exton Park, a Chester County park, keeps open meadow and woods in the middle of the township. Most Exton students are in the West Chester Area School District, whose buildings answer to Act 35 for integrated pest management. Our expected work in Exton follows that picture: bed bug and roach programs for apartment managers, logged service for restaurant and retail kitchens near the shopping centers, fall stink bug and mouse sealing on newer homes, and termite inspections for 1990s houses changing hands.
