We have been working with Yankee Pest for years and our house has not had any issues with bugs and specifically ants. Scott visited the house and provided advice to control ground bees. His report was complete and clear. I would recommend to anyone with a need for pest control.

I've been very happy with Yankee Pest Control so far for our residential mouse problem. Matt did the inspection, set traps and bait station, sprayed, and patched some of the entry points for mice the same day.

We hired Yankee Pest Control in January for our (new to us) home after spotting a mouse. Kendra has been our primary tech and is fantastic- knowledgeable, tenacious, and persistent in trying to solve our mouse problem! Also highly recommend the annual program as it’s a fantastic value and great for peace of mind.
