Serving Rockingham County since 1984

Sitting entirely within the Merrimack River watershed, Auburn is a town of about 5,000 that was named “New Hampshire’s Most Beautiful Town” and was in the top 20 of the New York Times’ list of “Top 200 Towns to Raise a Family.” Auburn takes its name from the poem “The Deserted Village,” which begins:

Sweet Auburn! loveliest village of the plain,

Where health and plenty cheered the labouring swain

Where smiling spring its earliest visit paid,

And parting summer’s lingering blooms delayed

Auburn’s largest lake, Massabesic Lake, extends over 2,500 acres in Auburn and neighboring Manchester. And it’s no secret that where there’s water – especially that much water – there are going to be pests. Pests like …

Ants: Ants can spoil more than just a picnic – they can spoil your whole house. Certain breeds of ants that crop up in the Auburn area can work their way into your home’s wood and damage critical load-bearing studs. Other types of ant can invade your kitchen or pantry and make their way into your food, contaminating it and making it unfit for human consumption. You can see how ants can end up costing you a fortune if they get a foothold. Call Colonial Pest Control now and spend a little money, or spend a lot of money down the road dealing with those pesky ants.

Flies: Nothing like a flying little repository of filth, sickness, and disease, is there? The reputation flies have is a justified one. They exist on garbage, filth, excrement, and human remains. They’re also incredibly annoying. Not exactly the life of the party. Don’t chase flies around with rolled-up newspapers and let your house pile up with fly carcasses. Give us a call and let us get rid of them for you – quickly, safely, and with no muss.

Cockroaches: Little creatures that give flies a run for their money on the nasty scale, cockroaches are not just confined to Auburn or New Hampshire or even New England – they’re everywhere. They’re also very tough to locate and incredibly resilient, and if you see one cockroach, it’s virtually guaranteed that there are more. People are sometimes under the mistaken impression that cockroaches only show up in dirty, unkempt homes, but that’s not necessarily true – one good-sized bit of food that accidentally rolls under the refrigerator can be enough for a cockroach to set up shop and start a family. If you’ve got an infestation, call Colonial Pest Control at 1-800-525-8084. We’ll serve them an eviction notice.
