Aardvark Pest Management

Aardvark Pest Management is a Philadelphia pest control company that uses integrated pest management, or IPM, to address the conditions behind an infestation rather than only the visible bugs. The company handles bed bugs, cockroaches, ants, mosquitoes, rodents and stinging insects in houses, apartments, offices, restaurants, and healthcare and school buildings. Founder Marty Overline started the business in 1995 in Frankford.

Each job begins with an inspection to find the pest, its entry points and the conditions that support it, followed by targeted treatment and a prevention plan. Customers receive a clear report on what was found and what to watch for next. Requests can be sent through the web form or by phone, and the company aims to respond within one business day. Urgent problems, such as stinging insect nests near entrances, can be called in directly, and same-day response is often possible in the Philadelphia area. Service also reaches Bensalem, Upper Darby and Trenton.
