Rodent Control in North Vancouver
Rats and mice are a year-round problem across the North Shore, especially in established neighbourhoods like Lynn Valley, Edgemont, and Capilano where mature landscaping and proximity to forested areas provide easy cover. Our rodent control program includes full inspection, targeted trapping, and entry point sealing to stop infestations at the source.
We don’t just eliminate current activity — we identify what attracted rodents in the first place so they stay gone. That’s why North Vancouver homeowners have trusted us for 40 years.
What’s included:
3 visits starting at $425 (setup plus 2 follow-ups)
Indoor and outdoor rodent control
Year-round protection programs available


Ant Control in North Vancouver
Carpenter ants and pavement ants become active across the North Shore in late winter as temperatures rise. Homes near forested areas in Canyon Heights, Blueridge, and Seymour Heights are particularly vulnerable to carpenter ant damage. We locate the colony source, not just the trails you see inside, and apply treatments that eliminate the entire nest. Early treatment in February and March prevents costly damage by summer.
Our ant control approach follows integrated pest management guidelines with safer options for homes with pets and kids.

Pest Detective North Shore Reviews
Pest Detective Serving North Vancouver with over 412+ Google Reviews.
“I contacted Pest Detective to report carpenter ant activity in my home. I contacted North Shore Pest Detective and left a message for a technician, who contacted me in a very short period of time. An appointment was arranged and the technician arrived punctually, presented himself professionally, investigated the situation and then explained it to me (in terms that I could understand) how the problem could be treated. He provided me with options for treatment and the advantage of one option over another. Once we decided upon which treatment I would pursue, he booked an appointment. On that date, he and another fellow arrived several minutes early. Lyle, the original technician, introduced me to his co-worker, explained the treatment procedure to me again, told me how long the process would take and went to work. The work was done in precisely the way it was described to me and in exactly the time frame I was told that it would be. I was very impressed with Lyle’s professionalism and would highly recommend these people.”
“Super customer service! They took my call on the weekend …the service representative on phone was professional, paid attention and really seemed to care about solving my pest issue ….once the appointment was set, the technicians that arrived were on time and really nice to deal with! Unbelievable! I know nobody wants pest problems or wants to even talk about it… but if you do need someone to deal with your unwanted guests one day…just call Pest Detective! Problem solved.”
“All of your staff are very helpful and polite and knowledgeable. The response of your technicians is prompt and professional. It’s really quite a relief – and even a pleasure – doing business with your company. Thanks again!”
We have been Pest Detective customers for 16 years. We were first introduced to their services when we renovated our home and found carpenter ant nests in the walls. While the walls were exposed, Chris and staff did a treatment of the entire house, inside and out and took care of the problem. We learned about their annual maintenance program and continued that until about 3 years ago. Then, I guess we got busy and forgot about the annual treatments, which was a mistake because in that time, the critters were back seeking a way to once again establish their old stomping grounds. Last year after observing more activity than usual, we called Pest Detective and resumed the annual maintenance program. Our storage room had to be treated for ants nesting in the walls. They kind of sneak up on you like that, likely because they live in homes in the area where regular treatment is not maintained. So we have continued to have our home treated each year with success that has brought peace of mind. We would like to say that every staff member we’ve met over the years has demonstrated appropriate knowledge and safe practice when applying these pesticides. They have always taken the time to answer questions, provide information about their products, and explain things. Staff are respectful and carry out their work in a highly professional manner. Overall, we have been pleased with the consistency and quality of service over the years and would highly recommend Pest Detective as an excellent choice for any kind pest control.
Arriving on time, they worked like a team. In EXTREME heat in our small crawlspace attic, Nicky crawled along the floor like a contortionist—the space was so small. She was talking to the raccoon like a household pet, trying to make Mommy Raccoon be calm—what patience!!!! They certainly have empathy and passion towards the animals. They set a cage on the roof (the raccoon entrance). Mommy entered the cage, then it was back into the hot crawl space attic to remove the four babies. Thank you Pest Detective…..you do excellent work.
