Albany Pest Control

Licensed & Insured Professional Pest Removal Solutions

Voted The #1 Exterminator in Albany, New York

Dear local resident,

Mike here, owner of Albany Pest Control – the Capital Region’s top-rated local exterminator for the past 27 years.

In that time, our pest control service has removed a seemingly endless supply of animals, bugs, insects, mice, rats, skunks, and random rodents from homes and businesses across the county.

You would not believe some of the insect infestations that we’ve had to get rid of.

We’ve done everything from bat removal in the attic of a residential property to ant removal across a chain of restaurants that rhymes with Burger Wing.

With our all star team, we can handle any size residential or commercial project.

Are mice scurrying around behind the walls of your kitchen? Want to get rid of aggressive ground bees ? Our professionals can help no matter where you are or what the pest situation is.

Northeast pest control is different than other areas of the state. We see a lot of bed bugs, rabid animals, bees, carpenter ants, and mice. Some homeowners (with questionable taste) default to calling Terminix, but they’re much better off with a local pest company that won’t hose them with large fees and useless service contracts.

Local Pest & Rodent Control Services

Residential Pest Control Service in Albany, NY

Here’s how pest problems usually go in the Capital Region.

You spot one ant. Then three. Then a line of them marching from your back door to the dog food bowl like it’s a company picnic.

Or maybe it’s January and you keep finding mouse droppings in the pantry because apparently your house is warmer than whatever field they came from.

Fair enough. But they still can’t stay.

We provide residential pest control for homes across Albany, Schenectady, Troy, Saratoga Springs, and the surrounding Capital District. We’ll exterminate ants, roaches, silverfish, earwigs, centipedes, and all the other things that make you want to sell your house.

We identify the species, find where they’re getting in, treat the problem, and set up prevention so they don’t come back next month with friends.

Bed bug treatment

Nobody wants to talk about bed bugs, but somebody has to. If you’re waking up with bites in a line on your arms or legs, or you’re finding tiny rust-colored spots on your sheets, call us before it spreads to the rest of the house. Bed bugs don’t go away on their own, and the DIY sprays from the hardware store do nothing against them. For professional bed bug removal, contact our local exterminators.

Rodent control and mouse removal

If you’re hearing scratching in the walls at night, that’s not the house settling. Mice and rats get into Albany homes through gaps the size of a dime. We trap, remove, and seal entry points so your attic goes back to being storage instead of a rodent subdivision.

Pest prevention plans & maintenance contracts

Ants and wasps in spring and summer. Mice and spiders in fall when the temperature drops. Stink bugs every October like clockwork. Our quarterly residential pest control plans keep your home treated year-round so you stop playing whack-a-mole with whatever shows up next. The honest truth about pest control for homes: one treatment rarely solves everything permanently. Pests are persistent, especially in older homes around Albany, Delmar, Colonie, and Guilderland where there are plenty of cracks, gaps, and damp basements to exploit. A prevention plan costs less per year than most people spend on the coffee they spill when a spider drops from the bathroom ceiling.

Tick and mosquito yard treatment

Albany summers are beautiful until you can’t sit on your own patio without becoming a blood bank. We treat yards for ticks and mosquitoes so your kids and dogs can go outside without you doing a full-body inspection afterward. This is especially important if you’re near the Pine Bush or any wooded area where deer ticks carrying Lyme disease are just part of the landscape.

Wasp and hornet nest removal

Every summer, someone in the Capital Region discovers a paper wasp nest the size of a football under their deck. That someone should not attempt to remove it with a garden hose. We remove wasp nests, yellow jacket nests, and hornet nests safely, including ground nests that you don’t notice until the lawn mower goes over them and suddenly it’s a bad day.

Wildlife removal and exclusion

Squirrels in the attic. Raccoons in the chimney. A groundhog under the shed that’s been there so long you’ve almost named it. We remove wildlife humanely and seal the entry points so they find someone else’s house to move into.

Commercial Pest Control Service

If you run a business in the Capital District and you’ve ever had a customer spot a roach, you already know this isn’t a maintenance issue. It’s a reputation issue. One pest sighting can turn into a one-star review faster than you can say “we’ve already called someone.” We provide commercial pest control for restaurants, offices, warehouses, property management companies, healthcare facilities, and retail locations across Albany and the greater Capital Region.

Restaurant and food service pest control

Health inspectors don’t have a sense of humor about insect and rodent issues. Neither do your customers. We work with restaurants, bars, bakeries, and commercial kitchens throughout Albany to maintain clean environments that pass inspection every time. That means scheduled pest treatments, monitoring stations, sanitation recommendations, and documentation your inspector actually wants to see.

Office and commercial building pest control

Nothing kills workplace morale quite like a mouse running across the conference room during a quarterly review. We service office buildings, coworking spaces, and commercial properties with regular treatment plans that keep the pests out and the complaints off your property manager’s desk.

Warehouse and industrial property pest control

Large facilities with loading docks, storage areas, and high ceilings are basically open invitations for rodents, birds, and insects. We design integrated pest management programs for warehouses, distribution centers, and light industrial spaces in the Albany area. If you’re storing food products, pharmaceuticals, or anything with regulatory requirements, pest management is part of legal compliance.

Property management pest control in Albany

If you manage apartment buildings, multi-family units, or rental properties, you already know that one tenant’s problem becomes everyone’s problem. We offer property management pest control plans with scheduled service, unit-by-unit treatment when needed, and reporting so you can document everything for tenants and owners.

Healthcare and assisted living facility pest solutions

Hospitals, nursing homes, and medical offices have zero tolerance for pest issues, and for good reason. We provide discreet, regularly scheduled commercial pest management for healthcare facilities with a focus on patient safety and regulatory compliance.

We’re local. We’re not a national franchise dispatching someone from three hours away who’s never seen a Capital Region basement. We know that Albany’s older housing stock means more entry points. We know that the damp springs and cold winters here create specific pest pressures that a company based in some other state wouldn’t think about.

We’re also not going to sell you a treatment you don’t need. If you call about a pest problem and the answer is “seal the gap under your garage door and you’re fine,” we’ll tell you that.

We’d rather earn your trust and your referral than charge you for a service that isn’t necessary.

Licensed. Insured. Actually from here. Give us a shout for a free estimate.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS OF OUR ALBANY EXTERMINATORS

What services do you offer?

We’re the local pros that can remove any bug or rodent from your home or business quickly and effectively. We get rid of ants, bats, bed bugs, bees, birds, chipmunks, coyotes, ground bees, fleas, foxes, hornets, meerkats, mice, moles, possums, rabbits, raccoons, rats, roaches, skunks, squirrels, termites, voles, wasps, woodchucks, and so much more. If there’s any unwanted guests residing on your property, we’ll take care of it. It’s always best to prevent infestations whenever possible, so call early and often to save yourself some dough.

Where areas do you service?

We service residential and commercial properties in Albany, Cohoes, Latham, Green Island, Delmar, Ravena, Colonie, Menands, Troy, Saratoga, Saratoga Springs, Waterford, East Greenbush, Schenectady, and more. If you live anywhere near Albany, Saratoga, or Schenectady County, we’ve got you covered.

Why should I choose you over the other guys?

Our company was built on a culture of trust and integrity, and we make this promise: we will always be honest and up front with you about the cost of our services. We know that many organizations in the area quote one price and then add fees as they do the work, which is dishonest and frustrating to you as the customer. We treat our customers like family, and you’ll get the highest quality pest extermination service available.

I’ve got bats…can you help?

Our Albany bat removal service is second to none. Bats get into home attics and vents through any available opening and start nesting. They leave guano (bat poop) all over the place, which is toxic and needs to be removed as soon as possible. Our bat exclusion specialists will safely remove them, bat-proof the gable vents, and seal off any other openings that may cause future problems. We offer bat removal in Troy as well if needed.

What does albany pest control cost?

Typically $100 to $500 depending on the specific issue. I wish we could give you a set number, but we have to know what type of pests we’re dealing, how many, and where they are so we can identify the most effective path forward. We are one of the most affordable pest solutions in the area though. The cost will depend on the type of insect or rodent that you want to remove, the difficulty of the job, and how much equipment and time we need to do it. Give us a call, tell us what’s going on, and we’ll see if we can help.
