# Westwood Pest Control

**Trade:** Pest Control · **Address:** 139 Winter St, Westwood, MA 02090, USA · **Phone:** (781) 762-3333 · **Website:** https://www.westwoodpestcontrol.com/ · **Languages:** English

**Rating: 4.2/5** (medium confidence) — from 132 reviews across 4 sources.
100% of sentiment-scored reviews read net-positive. Last 6 months: 13 reviews, 0 negative.

## The honest read

Ninety-plus reviews describe the same thing over and over: a wasp nest gone within hours, mice trapped and the actual entry points sealed, and one person — Paul — showing up himself to do the work and explain it as he goes. Westwood Pest Control is a small, owner-operated shop based in Westwood that people call for the pest problems that can't wait: a hornet nest by a bedroom window, mice suddenly active in the walls, carpenter ants working the siding.

The pattern holds up across the record. Google shows a 5-star average from 149 ratings, and the written history backs it up — 132 reviews dating back to 2021 across four sources, with 14 more in just the last six months and none of them negative. Customers keep citing the same specifics: Paul (and on some recent jobs a technician named Brian) finding and closing the openings mice were using rather than just setting traps, showing up same-day or the next morning for an active hornet or yellow-jacket problem, and returning a week or two later to confirm the job held. One customer described a mouse problem a previous company never solved; Westwood found the access point the mice were using, sealed it, and the droppings stopped within a week.

There isn't much of a caution to raise here — the written record has no negative reviews on file, and pricing comes up repeatedly as a plus rather than a complaint, with several customers specifically noting it beat bigger, corporate pest-control outfits and doesn't require signing up for a membership plan.

This reads like the right call for an urgent rodent or stinging-insect problem where you want someone out fast who will walk you through what they're doing — less a standing quarterly-service contract and more a business built around solving one active pest problem at a time.

**Strengths:**
- Same-day response — quick to hornet, wasp, and yellow-jacket emergencies
- Rodent removal — seals entry points and follows up until resolved
- Owner does the work — Paul personally handles and explains each job
- Fair pricing — no membership required, called out as reasonable repeatedly
