WE SERVE ALL BARNSTABLE COMMERCIAL & RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES Barnstable, Massachusetts was founded in 1639. At first, this Cape Cod town only consisted of farms. It wasn’t long after that the local merchants turned their attention to agriculture, fishing, and salt works. These significant industries contributed to the town’s early economy, helping shape it into what it is today. Although these industries help the town thrive, the old homes and building of this town don’t come without their challenges – including pests. Greenhow proudly offers offers pest control services to Barnstable businesses and all 50,000 residents, across all seven villages: Barnstable Village, Centerville, Cotuit, Hyannis, Marstons Mills, Osterville, and West Barnstable. Much like the rest of Cape Cod, including the rest of Barnstable County, Barnstable has its fair share of sandy dunes, rocky coasts, and thick woodlands. The north region of Barnstable is home to Barnstable Harbor and Sandy Neck Light, with miles of forests and Wequaquet Lake at the center of the town. This terrain makes attracts the risks of pests like mice, spiders, termites, ticks, and more. Because of Barnstable’s proximity to the Atlantic, many of the local homes and businesses are constructed out of materials like wood. Unfortunately, wood-based buildings often fall susceptible to unwanted pests like termites, ants, and rodents.
