Awesome Exterminating Company, Inc.

Awesome Exterminating has been at pest work on the South Shore since 1983, by the Better Business Bureau's account — incorporated in Massachusetts the following year and still a five-person shop out of Pembroke, with Richard Wilson as president. The jobs run both residential and commercial: general extermination plus termite inspections. BBB grades the company A+, and a South Shore real-estate site lists it under pest control at the same Pembroke phone number. For a homeowner who wants a long-running local exterminator rather than a national chain, this is a straightforward call. Ask what a termite inspection covers and what happens if the problem comes back, and confirm pest-control licensing and insurance before scheduling.
