Pine Run, Peace Valley Park and 1981-Era Homes

Neighborhoods near Pine Run and the park's woods and meadows sit close to standing water and leaf litter, which keeps mosquitoes and blacklegged ticks active from spring into fall.

Homes built around 1981 have softened sills, aging decks and basement windows that let termites, carpenter ants and mice in. Fields at the township's edge add field mice and stink bugs each autumn.

Lake Galena, the reservoir at the heart of Peace Valley Park, was formed by damming the North Branch of the Neshaminy Creek, and its southern shore lines up against several New Britain neighborhoods. Coves, cattail margins and the meadows the park lets grow tall hold both mosquito larvae and the mice that feed on meadow seed. Pine Run and the North Branch then wind toward Chalfont through wooded bottomland that floods after big storms and stays wet into June.

Houses from the early 1980s here are mostly colonials, split-levels and ranches on basements or crawlspaces, many with wood decks added later on footings set straight into clay soil. That clay drains slowly, so the soil along the foundation stays damp after rain, which subterranean termites favor. Woodpiles kept near the back door on wooded lots add carpenter ants, and meadow edges hide ground-nesting yellow jackets by late August.

From Media to Route 202 and Chalfont's Edge

We take the Turnpike east to Route 611 and cut over toward Route 202, about an hour. Since New Britain is a longer run, appointments are set ahead. Thom and his team inspect for free, check the yard's creek or wood edge, and leave a written quote.

Chalfont, Doylestown Township and Hilltown Around New Britain

New Britain Township sits next to the boroughs of Chalfont and New Britain, and it borders Doylestown Township and Hilltown Township. Route 202 crosses the township as Butler Avenue between Chalfont and Doylestown, and Route 152 heads north toward Hilltown. SEPTA's Lansdale/Doylestown Line runs through the area, with a station in New Britain Borough and another at Delaware Valley University just over the line. Peace Valley Park, run by Bucks County, includes a nature center and miles of trail along Lake Galena, and New Britain Township's children attend the Central Bucks School District. Because so many lots here back onto park land, creek bottoms or meadow, most of the work this area produces is seasonal yard treatment for mosquitoes and ticks, fall mouse sealing and termite inspections on homes reaching their mid-forties, rather than apartment or restaurant service.
