Ford's Hometown Services

Ford's Hometown Services is a Worcester pest control and lawn care company that says it has been family-run since 1941. Its website traces the business from founder George Ford Sr. to current president Christopher Ford, with a fourth generation joining in 2018, and lists residential and commercial pest management, termite and WDI inspections, tick and mosquito programmes, wildlife exclusion and lawn care across Central Massachusetts. On Google it holds 4.9 stars from 981 ratings, and Thumbtack shows 4.9 stars from 100. A recent customer on the company's Ultimate plan said Robert showed them two corners of the garage that were rodent highways, after earlier visits had only set bait and traps in the attic and basement. A recent customer with two-plus months of rodent activity said the house was silent within 2-3 days of the first setup, and that a follow-up visit patched what they could not reach under 3 ft of snow and stuffed the bulkhead. A 2026 customer said Jeffrey added bait boxes around the basement and attic and no mouse had been heard all winter. A recent customer said Jadon walked the whole perimeter for a hornet problem, pointed out problem areas and handled the spraying and traps. A recent customer said Matt Rousseau came out for carpenter bee and mole/vole treatment and explained each step. A recent customer who has had Ford's lawn service for many years said the lawn was the best looking they had ever seen it. In a 2025 review, a customer with three properties said the company wanted another $750 on top of quarterly fees after a rat was seen, and they ended service. In a 2025 review, a hornet customer said 5 nests were found and 2 charged, but a return trip for 3 more nests the next day would cost $99. In a 2023 review, a customer who paid almost $400 for mice control said the contract covered two visits and a third would cost an extra $100, despite a three-month warranty they had been told about.
