# Philadelphia Pest Control > Philadelphia Pest Control treats homes, apartments and businesses across Philadelphia and the inner suburbs in Delaware, Montgomery and Camden counties. The work here is shaped by the housing: about four in ten city homes predate 1940, and most are rowhouses or twins with shared party walls and cellars that let Norway rats, mice and German cockroaches travel from one address to the next. Humid summers bring mosquitoes to park edges and creek valleys, eastern subterranean termites swarm from late winter into June, and stink bugs crowd warm brick fronts each fall. A technician inspects first, explains what was found, and confirms the price before any treatment starts. Phones are answered 24/7 and same-day visits are scheduled when available. ## Key facts - Business: Philadelphia Pest Control - What: Residential and commercial pest control - Phone: (855) 974-4733 (+18559744733) -

Termite swarms usually appear from February to June, stink bugs seek shelter in September and October, and mosquitoes and ticks are active outdoors from spring into fall. The dates shift with the weather, so use this as a set of likely windows. - [Norway Rats in Philadelphia Rowhouses](https://philadelphiapestcontrol.shop/guides/norway-rats-philadelphia-rowhouses/): The Norway rat is the most common rodent in Philadelphia, according to a city Health Department program assessment from 2015. In rowhouses it moves along shared walls, cellars, utility lines and rear alleys, so a sighting in one house often points to a route that reaches the next. - [German Cockroaches in Philadelphia Apartments](https://philadelphiapestcontrol.shop/guides/german-cockroach-apartments-philadelphia/): German cockroaches are the most common cockroach in Pennsylvania buildings, according to Penn State Extension. They are drawn to moisture, grease and cracks, and in apartments they travel between units through pipe chases, shared walls and kitchen plumbing, so one unit's problem often reaches the next. - [Bed Bugs in Philadelphia Rentals](https://philadelphiapestcontrol.shop/guides/bed-bugs-philadelphia-rentals/): Bed bugs in a Philadelphia rental move on people, luggage and used furniture, and they can spread between units.
