Assonet sits in Bristol County with a humid continental climate that brings cold winters and warm summers. Older homes in the Assonet Village Historic District face steady subterranean termite pressure each spring while the nearby Assonet River drives mosquito activity through summer.
As temperatures drop in fall, rodents move indoors along MA-79 and US-44 corridors. Historic wood-frame structures with crawlspaces and basements near the river and village center see the highest year-round activity.
General Pest Exterminating runs regular routes from Beacon Hill to ZIP 02702 and also covers nearby Freetown, Lakeville and Taunton.
