Summer 2026 Update
Burnaby Pest Control — What's Active Right Now
Your summer pest activity report for Burnaby and the surrounding Metro Vancouver area
Our licensed technicians are on the ground across Burnaby every day this summer. Here's what we're actively treating right now — and how to protect your property before pests settle in.
Wasp and hornet colonies grow fast all summer, with nests appearing under Burnaby eaves, soffits, decks and sheds. They get more defensive as the season goes on, so the earlier you book wasp nest removal, the safer and simpler the job.
Pavement ants, odorous house ants, spiders, earwigs and sowbugs are at full summer strength and turn up in Burnaby kitchens, bathrooms, basements and around foundations. Summer is the right window for perimeter ant control and spider treatment to keep them outside.
Carpenter ants forage heavily and build satellite nests in damp structural wood through the warm months. Fine sawdust near baseboards and faint rustling in walls at night are common signs — treating the parent colony now stops the damage before it builds.
Rodents stay active through summer and keep breeding as juveniles spread into new territory — steady pressure on Burnaby homes and businesses. Rodent control and exclusion now make fall far easier.
Current Summer Pricing
Wasp/hornet nest treatment $195 (additional nests $105) • Spider treatment from $350 • Rodent Control Program from $450 (interior or exterior; $575 in & out) • Perimeter Pest Control from $435 • Inspections $170. Prices + GST.

Ant Control Burnaby
Carpenter ants thrive in Burnaby’s older neighbourhoods where mature trees and damp wood give them easy access to homes and garages. From South Burnaby heritage properties to newer builds near SFU, ant colonies can tunnel through structural wood for months before homeowners notice sawdust or frass around baseboards. Our Burnaby ant control service includes full inspection, targeted injection treatments for carpenter ants, and exterior perimeter treatments to stop trails before they reach your foundation.
Bed Bug Exterminator Burnaby
Burnaby’s high density condo towers and apartment buildings around Metrotown, Brentwood, and Edmonds make bed bug infestations a growing concern.

Our Burnaby bed bug exterminator team uses targeted heat treatments and professional grade products to eliminate infestations at the source. If you are seeing bites, blood spotting on sheets, or live bugs in mattress seams, contact us for a thorough inspection and same day treatment plan.

What are the most common pests in Burnaby homes?
Burnaby's mix of older South Burnaby homes, high-rise condos around Metrotown and Brentwood, and proximity to green spaces like Deer Lake and Burnaby Mountain creates ideal conditions for rodents, carpenter ants, bed bugs, cockroaches, and wasps. Rats and mice are active year-round thanks to our mild winters, while carpenter ants peak in spring and summer in homes with damp wood or mature trees nearby. We also handle wildlife like squirrels and raccoons around Burnaby's greenbelt neighbourhoods.
How do I know if I need an exterminator in Burnaby?
Call a Burnaby exterminator if you are seeing pests daily, finding droppings or gnaw marks in multiple rooms, noticing sawdust near baseboards or door frames, or if DIY sprays and traps have stopped working. For high-risk pests like rodents, bed bugs, and carpenter ants, professional treatment is almost always more cost-effective than repeated DIY attempts that let the problem spread.
Do you offer rodent control in Burnaby?
Yes. Our rodent control Burnaby program is a three-visit service that includes a full inspection, entry-point sealing with steel mesh and caulk, professional trap placement, and a prevention plan specific to your property. As a rat exterminator and mouse exterminator serving all of Burnaby, we tackle the most common pest complaint in the city — rats and mice in crawlspaces, garages, and condo garbage rooms. We also offer poison-free snap-trap programs for homes with pets or children.
Can you get rid of dead animal or rodent odor in Burnaby?
Yes — dead-rodent odor is one of the most common calls we get, especially after a mouse or rat dies inside a wall or crawlspace. Our Burnaby technicians locate and remove the source where accessible, treat the area, and pair it with rodent-proofing so it doesn't happen again. If the smell keeps coming back, it usually means there's still an active rodent problem to solve at the root.
Do you treat bed bugs in Burnaby?
Absolutely. Our Burnaby bed bug exterminator service starts with a thorough inspection to confirm the infestation and its extent, followed by targeted treatment using products considered safe for pets and family once properly applied and dried. Bed bugs spread fast in multi-unit buildings and condos, so early professional treatment is the most reliable way to stop them — DIY rarely reaches every hiding spot.
When is carpenter ant season in Burnaby?
Carpenter ant season in Burnaby typically runs from late March through September, with swarms peaking in spring when winged ants emerge to start new colonies. Burnaby's mature tree canopy and older wood-frame homes give carpenter ants easy access to damp structural wood. If you spot large black ants indoors or piles of sawdust near baseboards, contact our ant control Burnaby team before structural damage gets worse.
Why are wasps showing up so early in Burnaby this year?
Due to warmer spring temperatures and mild winter conditions, wasps are becoming active much earlier than usual across the Lower Mainland, including Burnaby. These early appearances often mean nests are forming sooner and can grow larger throughout the season. To learn more about why wasps are arriving early and how to protect your property, check out our latest blog: Wasp Season Vancouver & Lower Mainland 2026.
Do you offer emergency or same-day pest control in Burnaby?
In most Burnaby neighbourhoods, yes — we offer fast same-day or next-day service for urgent problems like aggressive wasp nests, sudden rodent activity, or bed bugs before a move. Call our Burnaby team early in the day for the best chance at same-day scheduling.
