South Shore Mosquito & Tick Control

South Shore Mosquito & Tick Control is a Kingston-based, family-owned pest service whose base looks less like a customer list and more like a long-running relationship — Google shows 233 ratings averaging 5 stars, and reviewers repeatedly mention they're on their third, sixth, or even tenth season with the company. Its Better Business Bureau grade is A+. Two things come up again and again: the organic, pet- and water-safe spray, and how communicative the crew is. Customers describe advance notice before each visit, a bug report afterward, and Ben, the owner, named by several reviewers, sending the team back for an extra spray if ticks or mosquitoes reappear between treatments. That responsiveness shows up specifically in accounts from homeowners near woods, wetlands, and vernal pools — Pembroke, Kingston, Weymouth, Quincy — who describe going from a serious tick problem to effectively none. A handful of reviewers also mention the company holds pricing steady on renewal rather than raising it each year, and that fleas, ants and stink bugs get treated as add-ons alongside the core mosquito and tick program. The written record here is unusually clean — 27 reviews in the last six months alone, none negative — and nothing in it raises a real concern to flag. The one thing worth clarifying up front is what counts as an add-on: flea, ant and stink-bug treatment come up as extras layered onto the mosquito and tick service, not as standalone offerings, so it's worth confirming coverage if a secondary pest is the main reason for calling. For a household near woods, water, or a wetland that wants an organic option and wants to actually hear from the company between visits, this is what the reviews describe. Multi-year customers are the norm here, not the exception.
