Our pest control services in Burnaby
We work with 3 kinds of customers, and each gets a service set up for how they use their space.
- Residential pest control. Houses, townhomes, condos and basement suites. We treat the problem you called about and show you how to keep it from coming back.
- Commercial pest control. Restaurants, offices, warehouses, strata and rental buildings. Regular service visits, monitoring and sealing, with reports for your records.
- Construction pest control. Rodent baiting before demolition and pest programs for active sites, so rats don’t move into the houses next door.
Common pests in Burnaby homes
Burnaby’s mild, wet climate and mix of older houses, new towers and green space means we see the same handful of pests all year.
- Rats and mice. Roof rats and Norway rats are active across Burnaby, especially near construction and ravines. See rat removal and mouse extermination.
- Ants. Pavement ants in spring, and carpenter ants and moisture ants in damp wood. Start with our ant control page.
- Bed bugs. Common in apartments, condos and rentals, where they spread between units. See bed bug extermination.
- Wasps. Nests peak from July to September, under eaves and inside walls. See wasp nest removal.
- Cockroaches. Mostly German cockroaches in multi-unit buildings and restaurants. See cockroach extermination.

Phebe T., Google review, 5 stars
“Pest Boss is truly a boss of all the pests and got to experience it first hand. I hate spiders and mostly kill them myselves but this time I don’t have to as Pest Boss took care of their webployees. I also had a mice problem due to 2 constructions going on in the neighbourhood. Mice traps were super helpful and the poison boxes installed in the garage was a game changer. Highly recommended.”
Utsav J., Google review, 5 stars
“The ants took over our home this year. After spending about a month attempting to take care of it ourselves with various traps, potions and remedies, we called Pest Boss. … by the next day we had no ants. It’s been about two weeks now and still no ants. Thank you Pest Boss!”

What’s the hardest pest to get rid of?
Bed bugs and German cockroaches. Both hide in tiny cracks, breed fast and spread between units in apartment buildings, so they almost always need more than 1 treatment. Carpenter ants can also be tough when the nest is hidden inside a wall.
Is hiring an exterminator worth it?
For a few ants on the counter, store-bought bait may be enough. For rodents, bed bugs, cockroaches, carpenter ants or a wasp nest in a wall, a professional usually costs less in the end than months of products that don’t reach the source.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. After a few simple questions, we can usually give you a free estimate over the phone, 24/7. Call 778-953-2677 or send us a message.
Are your treatments safe for kids and pets?
We choose the lowest-impact treatment that works, and we’ll tell you before we start if you need to keep kids or pets out of an area and for how long.
