  We have used their services to help with spiders and insects 2 years in a row.each Time the treatment far exceeded the timeframe which was fantastic since my autistic son struggles a lot with this. Not only this but they even offered a complimentary exterior spray at our new home after we had our house burned down and lost everything.

Great services, amazing work and fantastic kind people. We will never use anyone else!! And they are forever in our hearts!

  Today marks 10 years my family and I have being using Bugman Pest Control for our house on Silverdale in Mission. I remember becoming a client when Nigel (father of current owner Bryce) was considering retiring! Which says a lot. This is generational extermination! I always felt apart of the Bugman family. I really liked every tech that came through over the years. Even though I was sad loosing Nigel in the beginning, I was pleasantly surprised with each replacement; learning well from the exterminator before them. This is probably the reason I've stayed a client for so long. Big thank you to a company who has had my back over the years and never tried to rip me off.

What Your Neighbours Are Saying About The Bugman

Why Abbotsford Chooses The Bugman

A downtown apartment, rural acreage, warehouse, and restaurant can give pests very different ways in. Our technicians take the building, its surroundings, and how the property is used into account before recommending a plan.

Local technicians serving Abbotsford and surrounding Fraser Valley communities
A familiar technician who gets to know the property and keeps communication clear
Pest identification and inspection before a treatment plan is recommended
Targeted service planned around occupants, pets, customers, employees, and site use
Preparation and re-entry directions explained before treatment
Follow-up, warranty, and maintenance options explained clearly for the selected service

Our Integrated Pest Management approach considers the pest and the access, food, water, and shelter supporting it. This reduces unnecessary pesticide use and keeps prevention central to the service.

Residential Pest Control in Abbotsford

We work in homes of all kinds, from detached houses and rural properties to apartments, rentals, and strata communities. Your technician will shape the service around the pest, the building, and the people or pets who use the space, with preparation explained before work begins.

Commercial Pest Control in Abbotsford

Commercial programs can be planned for offices, restaurants, retail, warehouses, agricultural and food facilities, and strata properties. Depending on the risk, service may include treatment, monitoring, documentation, and corrective recommendations planned around site operations.

Preventative Pest Control in Abbotsford

If a property sees the same pests each season, receives frequent deliveries, shares walls, or stores food or animal feed, recurring service can help catch new activity earlier. It can also provide added reassurance for businesses where even a small pest problem may interrupt the day.

A Practical Approach to Pest Prevention

Good prevention starts with understanding what is happening at the property. The entry point, moisture source, or storage issue that matters in one building may have little to do with the problem next door.

Seal gaps around foundations, doors, vents, soffits, siding, roofs, and utility lines after confirming that no animal or active nest is trapped inside
Repair plumbing and roof leaks, improve drainage, and ventilate damp storage, crawl, and utility spaces
Keep garbage, recycling, food, pet food, seed, and animal feed closed and clean
Reduce clutter and keep storage accessible enough to reveal droppings, gnawing, webbing, and insect activity
Move firewood and dense vegetation away from exterior walls where practical
Use regular inspections in commercial, agricultural, rental, and multi-unit properties where early detection reduces disruption

Professional prevention is not automatic spraying. It combines monitoring with appropriate physical, cultural, mechanical, and targeted treatment measures for the site.

Common Pests in Abbotsford

Pest activity in Abbotsford looks different from one property to the next. Homes and commercial buildings create different conditions than farms, wooded lots, storage facilities, and other year-round indoor spaces. Below are some of the pests The Bugman is commonly called to inspect and treat.

Ant Control

Carpenter ants are associated with wood and often benefit from moisture, while smaller ants may enter around foundations and trail toward food. Professional ant control identifies the species and likely nesting area before targeting the colony.

Wasp Control

Wasp nests can develop beneath eaves and decks, inside wall or roof openings, in sheds, and underground. Wasp control is especially important when activity is close to doors, paths, work areas, play spaces, or people with sting sensitivities.

Rodent Control

Mice and rats may enter houses, garages, crawl spaces, barns, warehouses, and storage areas through surprisingly small openings. Rodent control may include trapping, secure baiting where appropriate, monitoring, sanitation guidance, and exclusion recommendations.

Cockroach Control

Cockroaches can be introduced in deliveries and spread through plumbing, utility routes, shared walls, kitchens, and storage areas. Effective cockroach control depends on the species, harbourage, food and moisture sources, and cooperation between affected spaces.

Bed Bug Treatment

Bed bugs move with luggage, furnishings, and people, and can affect homes, rentals, care settings, and other occupied spaces. They are not caused by poor housekeeping. Bed bug treatment starts with confirmation, preparation guidance, and a method suited to the infestation.

Spider Control

Spiders often become more noticeable where exterior gaps and insect prey allow them to remain. Spider control can address indoor webbing and harbourage while also considering the insects that are supporting the activity.

Silverfish Control

Silverfish prefer humid, protected spaces and may feed on paper, adhesives, fabrics, and other materials. Silverfish control should be paired with improvements to moisture, ventilation, cardboard storage, and access to quiet harbourage.

Termite Control

Termites are not the only insects that can be associated with wood damage or discarded wings. Identification is essential before treatment. A professional termite inspection and treatment plan helps distinguish termites from ants and other wood-infesting pests.

How The Bugman Handles a Pest Problem

Tell Us What You Have Noticed

Tell us what you have noticed and where. Photos and details about sounds, droppings, bites, damage, or previous treatments can help us prepare for the visit.

Inspect the Relevant Areas

The technician checks the affected and connected areas for evidence, entry points, harbourage, food, moisture, and travel routes.

Identify the Pest

Correct identification matters because similar-looking pests can require very different responses.

Build a Customized Treatment Plan

We explain the recommended service, preparation, access, precautions, expected timeline, and applicable follow-up or warranty terms.

Complete the Treatment

Treatment may involve targeted products, traps, baits, heat, nest removal, exclusion, or another site-specific method.

Reduce the Chance of Recurrence

Based on the inspection, your technician may recommend repairs, sanitation, moisture control, storage changes, monitoring, or scheduled follow-up.

Elijha PennerSeptember 2026 ★★★★★

Meghan did an absolutely excellent job explaining the entire process and helping me understand what would work best for my situation when it came to treating my home for bed bugs. She was very kind, patient, and incredibly well-spoken, which made an already stressful situation feel much more manageable.

What I appreciated most was how she was able to slip in some humor and a few laughs along the way. It genuinely made me smile and helped ease my nerves while discussing a situation that can be pretty uncomfortable and stressful.

Meghan was knowledgeable, compassionate, and made me feel like I was in good hands from start to finish. I truly appreciate the way she handled everything and took the time to make sure I understood my options.

5 stars all the way! Thank you, Meghan!

Susan PreastJanuary 2024 ★★★★★

I am so pleased to recommend "Bugman Pest Control"services in Abbotsford. After trying unsucessfully for several weeks to get rid of tiny ants in my basement, I phoned "The Bugman" to book an appointment. My serviceman, Michael, arrived as scheduled a few days later. He listened carefully to my concerns and made suggestions on the best way to address the ants that would be appropriate for our home. We were asked to leave for a few hours while the treatment was completed (both inside and out). When we returned home there was no odour, no residue and NO ANTS! Thanks for your expert service, Michael!

KristaMay 2025 ★★★★★

Fantastic service with this company. I had them come out to my place in mission a couple years ago and the woman was amazing to deal with. So kind and helpful, did he job extremely well and eradicated the carpenter ants that were plaguing my life.

Now my current home, in abbotsford we thought we had rats in the roof. We set a trap and thought we caught one. It was a squirrel instead. They came and dealt with it.

Thank you so much to both of the fantastic employees.

10/10 would recommend. For all my pest issues (hopefully never again though) I will call bug man!

Isabel ThomasSeptember 2023 ★★★★☆

Four stars because I've only had the initial consult and set up. So far it has gone smoothly: I feel like i want room to adjust for further services and follow up. The initial email was so very thorough I felt absolutely confident when the tech arrived. I had no questions at all, and that is unusual for me. There wasn't a step wrong or anything miscommunicated, and so very polite and friendly both the admin and the tech. I love it when people have knowledge and not just Information. So, what everyone else said, plus this...I wouldn't go with anyone else when these guys are so good.

We had Sue come by today to help us with a potential mice issue, and she was fantastic. She arrived right on time, was very pleasant, and took the time to clearly explain the whole process to us.

Great communication with the Bugman team as they provide a two-hour window of arrival and a text 15min prior to arrival. I had a wasps nest that Sue took care of promptly and efficiently. I've used the Bugman in the past (cockroaches-- truly a nightmare) and while I hope to not have any more pests, I'm grateful I have them to lean on in the future if needed!

Sarah E BraatenSeptember 2023 ★★★★★

I can't recall the name of the young man that came out but boy was he helpful! We had two large (thankfully empty) wasp nests in our attic and as a person with a severe allergy, they came the next day and removed them. He also provided me with quotes for other services and was very knowledgable and clean. He was fully prepared in his bee-suit and it was service with a smile. Will definitely use them again!

Abbotsford Pest Control FAQs

How much does pest control cost in Abbotsford?

Cost depends on the pest, property, access, activity level, treatment method, and follow-up needs. The Bugman offers free quotes and may recommend an inspection when more information is needed.

How often should I schedule pest control?

One-time service may suit an isolated issue, while properties with recurring activity, food handling, shared walls, or frequent deliveries may benefit from scheduled monitoring tailored to the site.

Are treatments safe for children and pets?

Precautions depend on the treatment and where it is used. Tell the team about children, pets, aquariums, sensitivities, and special-use areas so preparation and re-entry requirements can be explained.

How long does pest control take to work?

Timing depends on the pest and method. Your technician will explain the expected response, what activity may remain temporarily, and when follow-up should occur.

What pests are common in Abbotsford?

Common concerns include ants, wasps, mice, rats, spiders, flies, silverfish, cockroaches, and bed bugs. The likely pest depends on the season, property, and inspection findings.

Do you provide both residential and commercial pest control?

Yes. The Bugman serves homes, rentals, strata properties, offices, restaurants, warehouses, retail sites, farms, food facilities, and other commercial properties in Abbotsford.

What is preventative pest control?

Preventative pest control combines inspection, monitoring, exclusion, sanitation, moisture management, and targeted treatment to reduce risk and identify problems earlier.

Does The Bugman offer a pest control guarantee?

Warranty and follow-up terms vary by pest and service. Ask what is included, how long coverage lasts, and which conditions or preparation requirements apply.

Booking, paying and scheduling in Abbotsford

The questions above cover the treatment. These cover everything around it.

Do I pay before the work, or after?

A deposit books the appointment and the balance falls due once the work is finished. You are not asked for the full amount before a technician has been to the property, and the quote is free, so the number comes before the commitment.

If I cancel, do I get my deposit back?

Yes, provided you tell us before the appointment. Call 604-854-2847 as soon as you know the visit is not needed, and the deposit is returned. One of the reviews further up this page is from an Abbotsford customer who cancelled and had exactly that.

Will I get an arrival window, or do I have to wait all day?

You get an arrival window. If the job before yours overruns, we call you instead of letting the day disappear. The office runs Monday to Friday and does not book weekends, so choose the weekday that costs you least.

Is your technician licensed to apply pesticide in BC?

Yes. Every pest control technician in British Columbia must hold a licence under the Integrated Pest Management Act. The Bugman is a family-run, government-licensed company with more than 30 years of experience, and the certificate is available to see at the door.

Will I get the same technician each visit?

On an ongoing programme, yes. Customers on a regular schedule work with a dedicated technician who comes to know the property and its pest history, which matters on a recurring ant or rodent problem where last season's findings shape this season's plan.

Who do I call if I still see activity after the visit?

The office, on 604-854-2847. Describe what you are seeing and where. The technician reassesses the property and treats again where it is needed. Which follow-up visits are included depends on the service you booked, so ask about it before the job starts.
