Dorchester's dense multi-family housing stock built on moist soils near the Atlantic faces steady pressure from German roaches in older units and subterranean termites that swarm each spring when the humid continental climate warms.
Technicians based on Beacon Hill reach Fields Corner, Savin Hill, Dorchester Center, Uphams Corner, Codman Square, Mattapan and Ashmont via I-93, US-1 and MA-3A in under thirty minutes, treating crawlspaces under historic triple-deckers and monitoring vegetation around Dorchester Park and Franklin Park Zoo where rodents and ticks thrive.
Fall brings mice and rats indoors as temperatures drop, while summer mosquito and wasp activity spikes near the water edges by the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Dorchester Heights Monument.
