Licensed home exterminators. Free pest inspection. Same day pest control appointments across the GTA.
Serving homeowners, renters, and condo residents across Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Markham, Scarborough, North York, and Etobicoke.
Residential Pest Control Toronto homeowners can rely on: GTA Pest Solutions is a licensed & insured exterminator treating houses, condos, apartments, and townhomes across the Greater Toronto Area, using pet-safe methods and backed by guaranteed pest control.
Here’s what separates a real fix from a temporary one. A store-bought spray kills what’s in front of you. Residential pest control finds where pests are living, how they got in, and what’s keeping them there, then removes all three. That’s why our technicians spend as much time in your basement, attic, and along your foundation as they do treating the room where you saw the problem.
Every job follows Integrated Pest Management (IPM), the standard approach used by licensed operators across Ontario: inspect, identify, treat precisely, then prevent. Read more about our IPM-based process.
Our home pest control Toronto service covers the full range of household invaders:
Crawling insects: cockroaches, ants (including carpenter ants), spiders, silverfish, centipedes, earwigs, sowbugs, and carpet beetles.
Rodents: mice and rats, plus entry-point sealing so they can’t return.
Biting pests: bed bugs, fleas, and ticks.
Stinging insects: wasps, hornets, and bees, including nest removal from soffits, decks, and sheds.
Wildlife: raccoons, squirrels, skunks, and birds are handled through our humane wildlife removal service, which uses exclusion rather than extermination.
Not sure what you have? Send us a photo. Our technicians identify pests from images every day; it costs you nothing and often saves an unnecessary visit.
Pest pressure in the Greater Toronto Area follows a predictable annual pattern. Knowing what’s coming helps you act before an infestation takes hold, a core part of seasonal pest control.
| Season | What Becomes Active | What to Watch For |
|---|---|---|
| đ¸ Spring (MarâMay) | Ants, carpenter ants, wasp queens, raccoons, squirrels | â Ant trails in kitchens; scratching in attics |
| â Summer (JunâAug) | Wasps, hornets, spiders, fleas, mosquitoes, cockroaches | â Nests at full size; cockroach activity increases |
| đ Fall (SepâNov) | Mice, rats, spiders, boxelder bugs, cluster flies | â Rodents moving indoors; peak entry season |
| â Winter (DecâFeb) | Mice, rats, cockroaches, bed bugs | â Indoor populations breeding in heated spaces |
The most important window: early fall. Sealing entry points in September and October prevents the mouse problem you’d otherwise be dealing with in January. Rodents need a gap no wider than a pencil.
Not all GTA housing has the same pest profile. We adjust every residential pest control services plan to the building.
the widest range of entry points: foundation cracks, utility penetrations, garage gaps, roof vents, and chimneys. Treatment focuses on a full exterior perimeter plus interior harbourage points. Older homes in Toronto, Scarborough, and Etobicoke often have gaps that newer builds don’t.
pests travel between units through wall voids, plumbing chases, and shared garbage rooms. Treating one unit alone rarely holds. We work with residents and property managers to treat adjacent units where needed, and we coordinate access discreetly.
shared walls mean shared problems, especially for mice and cockroaches. Attic spaces are sometimes continuous between units, which matters for wildlife.
moisture and ground-level entry make these vulnerable to cockroaches, silverfish, centipedes, and rodents. Drainage and grading fixes often matter more than the treatment itself.
Most companies skip this. Knowing what to expect makes the visit easier.
Your technician checks interior harbourage points, the basement, the attic, and the full exterior perimeter. They’ll show you what they find rather than just reporting it.
You get the pest identified, the plan, the number of visits, and a firm price before any treatment begins.
Targeted application to cracks, voids, and entry points. We don’t fog or blanket-spray living areas.
Most treatments require you to be out for a short period. Your technician gives exact timing before starting, so you can plan around it.
Entry points closed, conditions explained, follow-up scheduled if the pest requires it.
Typical prep for you: clear under sinks and along baseboards, cover pet food and water bowls, and remove or cover fish tanks. That’s usually it; we’ll tell you if anything more is needed.
We’d rather tell you the truth than sell you a visit you don’t need.
a handful of ants after a spill, a single spider, occasional cluster flies at a window, or one wasp that flew in an open door. Sealing a food container or caulking a gap solves most of these.
you see droppings, hear scratching in walls or ceilings, find a wasp nest, notice bites overnight, or see cockroaches (especially in daylight, which signals a large population) or when the problem returns after you’ve treated it twice.
retail sprays kill on contact but don’t reach nests inside wall voids. Worse, some products cause cockroaches and bed bugs to scatter into neighbouring rooms or units, turning one problem into several. Rodent baiting without sealing entry points simply invites replacements.
Under Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act, landlords are generally responsible for maintaining rental properties in a pest-free condition, including paying for professional treatment. Tenants are expected to report problems promptly, allow access, and complete reasonable preparation.
If you rent: report the issue in writing and keep a copy. Avoid DIY treatment; it can complicate the professional job and, in some cases, affect your standing in a dispute.
If you’re a landlord or property manager: treating a single unit in a multi-unit building usually fails. We provide documentation suitable for tenant records and can coordinate multi-unit treatment. See our commercial pest control programs for buildings under management.
General information only, not legal advice. For a specific dispute, contact the Landlord and Tenant Board or a community legal clinic.
Treatment removes what’s there. Prevention decides whether they come back.
Mice fit through openings the width of a pencil. Check where pipes, cables, and dryer vents enter the wall.
Leaking taps, poor basement drainage, and blocked gutters attract cockroaches, silverfish, and centipedes more reliably than crumbs do.
Trim branches away from the roof, keep firewood off the ground and away from walls, and clear leaf litter from the foundation.
Seal containers, and don't leave pet food out overnight. Pet bowls are one of the most commonly overlooked attractants.
Secure lids matter more than people expect, especially for raccoons.
Used furniture, luggage after travel, and cardboard from storage are the usual routes for bed bugs and cockroaches.
Treatment removes what’s there. Prevention decides whether they come back.
Every technician is trained and licensed in Ontario. Never a subcontractor.
We know the difference between a Scarborough bungalow's rodent problem and a downtown condo's cockroach issue.
treatments: Chosen with children, pets, and asthma sufferers in mind.
With a firm, written quote before any work starts.
If the pest returns within the guarantee period, we return at no charge.
Where available, including evenings and weekends.
We understand you may not want the neighbours knowing.
We provide house pest control GTA-wide across:
Plus Peel, York, Halton, and Durham Regions. See all areas we serve across the GTA.
A licensed technician will identify the pest, show you where it’s getting in, and give you a firm price, with no obligation.
Cost depends on the pest, your home's size, and how far the infestation has spread. A single wasp nest costs far less than a multi-visit rodent or bed bug program. We quote a firm price after a free pest inspection, with no hidden fees and no pressure to buy a plan you don't need.
Many problems, like wasp nests, a single ant colony, and one-off spider issues, are resolved in a single visit. A home protection plan makes sense for recurring seasonal pressure or properties backing onto ravines and green space. We'll tell you honestly which applies to you.
Yes. Some pest problems can't wait. GTA Pest Solutions offers same day pest control and emergency pest control across much of the Greater Toronto Area, including evenings and weekends where available.
Yes. GTA Pest Solutions is a licensed and insured exterminator operating in Ontario. Every treatment is carried out by a trained, licensed exterminator following provincial regulations and Integrated Pest Management (IPM) best practices.
Absolutely. We remove raccoons, squirrels, skunks, and other wildlife using one-way doors and exclusion methods that cause no harm. During baby season, we reunite young with their mothers as required by the Ontario Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act. After removal, we seal entry points so the animals can't return.
Yes, though we'll usually recommend reporting it to property management first, since building-wide treatment is more effective for cockroaches and bed bugs. If you'd prefer private, discreet treatment of your unit, we can do that too.
We are a trusted pest control service provider offering safe, effective, and solutions homes and businesses.
