Common Pest Problems in Western Massachusetts

Homes in the hilltowns and around Greenfield sit close to woods, stone walls, fields, and old foundations — conditions that make certain pests especially common in this part of Massachusetts.

Mice and rats moving indoors for winter

Older farmhouses and stone-foundation homes throughout the hilltowns give rodents easy access once temperatures drop. Mice and rats look for gaps around sills, pipes, and foundations starting in early fall.

Wasp, hornet, and yellow jacket nests

Sheds, eaves, woodpiles, and barns are common nesting spots. Nest activity typically peaks from mid-summer through early fall, and nests near entryways or play areas should be treated rather than left alone.

Ticks in yards and along tree lines

Field edges and wooded lots along the Mohawk Trail corridor and throughout Franklin and Hampshire counties support tick populations for most of the year, not just summer.

Ants in kitchens and bathrooms

A warm stretch of weather is often enough to bring an ant trail into a kitchen or bathroom, especially in homes near woodpiles, gardens, or stone walls.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5 STARS - Outstanding Service and a Wonderful Local Professional !

I cannot recommend Connelly Pest Management highly enough! I am a 76-year-old do-it-yourselfer dealing with a highly aggressive, late-season hornet nest hidden deep inside my second-floor porch wall veneer. After my own DIY attempts failed, I reached out to Connelly Pest Management. The owner, Patrick, responded promptly and had a highly productive, respectful conversation with me. After reviewing a video of the active nest, he was incredibly understanding of my situation and worked out a very fair and reasonable price with me. Patrick is a great young man who clearly loves what he does—from structural pest control to broader wildlife and beaver management. He treated the nest, completely stood by his work with a full guarantee, and we even had a wonderful 25-minute chat afterward (he's even sending me a recipe for squirrel stew!). If you want a highly effective, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind professional who treats his customers like neighbors, call Patrick. I am so grateful to have my porch back for my morning coffee and bird watching!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Pat was professional and not pushy in any way with his services. I had a problem with some carpenter ants and he came out and took care of the problem for a fair price. This was my first experience with calling a pest management company and I will not hesitate to call Connelly Pest Management in the future!  Thanks again Pat!

Patrick, who worked with us, was fantastic. He was responsive, timely, compassionate, and incredibly flexible throughout the entire process. He was also professional, responsible, and clearly cared about making sure the problem was handled properly.

Dealing with fleas can be stressful and overwhelming, and having someone who was both knowledgeable and understanding made a huge difference. I would absolutely recommend Connelly’s Pest Management to anyone looking for reliable, affordable, and genuinely caring pest control service.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Patrick at Connelly Pest Management was professional, easy to communicate with, and thorough in his handling of a yellow jacket nest that was on our property.  He responded to my initial inquiry in a very timely way, and was able to schedule the removal swiftly, which was extremely helpful since I am anaphylactically allergic to them!
His pricing was the MOST reasonable, and he didn’t try to upsell monthly services that we didn’t need.  He was informative about how to watch for any re-making of the nest, citing that he’d come back with any new activity, which was reassuring.  He also educated me about prevention strategies and shared his service options for those.

Please do not call the other places—just work with Connelly Pest Management.  You will be *very* satisfied with the service, professionalism and results.  We found our new go-to pest control company and couldn’t be more pleased!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Service was very prompt and price was great.  Came back out next day due to the very aggressive wasp that were being dealt with.    Would definitely recommend the services provided and am considering having treatments done throughout the year. Was talked to about it but was never pushed about it

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can Connelly Pest Management come out?

Most quote requests receive a response the same business day. Scheduling depends on urgency — an active wasp nest near an entryway is typically prioritized ahead of a routine ant trail.

Does Connelly Pest Management offer free quotes?

Yes. Describe the pest issue and the property location, and Connelly Pest Management will provide a quote, often without requiring an in-person visit first for straightforward jobs.

Are Connelly Pest Management's treatments safe for children and pets?

Treatments are applied using targeted methods, and clear guidance is provided on any wait time recommended before children or pets return to a treated area.

Do I need a one-time treatment or an ongoing pest control plan?

It depends on the pest. A single wasp nest is typically a one-time visit. Ants, mice, and ticks tend to recur seasonally, which is why most homeowners choose a quarterly plan for those pests.

Does Connelly Pest Management handle wildlife like squirrels or raccoons?

Wildlife concerns involving squirrels, raccoons, chipmunks and other nuisance animals are handled through Connelly Wildlife Management. Visit the Connelly Wildlife Management website to learn more about wildlife removal and exclusion services.

What's included in a quarterly pest control plan?

Quarterly plans include scheduled visits timed to the season, covering perimeter and interior ant and spider treatment, rodent monitoring, and tick-focused yard treatment during warmer months.

What happens if pests show up between scheduled visits?

Plan customers can call between scheduled visits if a new issue comes up, and Connelly Pest Management will work the visit in rather than requiring a wait until the next scheduled date.

Does Connelly Pest Management treat carpenter ants or termites?

Yes, Connelly Pest Management treats carpenter ants as well as common household ants. We do not currently provide termite or powderpost beetle treatment. If you are unsure which pest is causing the problem, contact us to discuss what you are seeing.

What should I do if I think I have bed bugs?

Contact Connelly Pest Management for an inspection to confirm and locate the source. Bed bugs are easier to contain the earlier they’re caught, so it’s best not to wait on a suspected sighting.
