Chester sits in Hampden County as a small hill town of 1332 residents along the Westfield River in the Berkshires foothills. The humid continental climate brings cold snowy winters that push rodents indoors and warm summers that boost mosquito and wasp activity near the river and wooded edges.
Homes here often feature crawlspaces and older foundations exposed to seasonal moisture from the river valley and surrounding soil. MA-20 and MA-8 provide the main access for our crews traveling from Beacon Hill, allowing service to ZIP 01011 and nearby towns including Westfield, Blandford, and Russell.
Customers in Chester most often call about mice entering basements once temperatures drop and carpenter ants active in spring and early summer along wooded property lines.
