The prices people ask for most: a bed bug exterminator starts at $429. An exterminator for mice runs $409 to $429, and a carpenter ant exterminator $399 to $399. An exterminator for cockroaches starts at $429.
Wasps have their own pricing, because the work is done at the nest rather than by the room. One nest is $189, a full treatment covers every nest we find for $259, and each extra nest is $39.

In Dorval Bed Bugs Arrive by Plane
Dorval lives with the airport. A good share of people here work at it or for what surrounds it, and a good share travel more often than average. That gives a city where the number one bed bug vector is not a second-hand couch and not July 1: it is a suitcase.
A bed bug does not jump and does not fly. It moves in luggage, clothing and bags, and it lives for months without feeding, which means a suitcase put away in a closet in February can still be a problem in May. That is why Dorval cases often start without anyone being able to say when.
The routine that removes most of the risk is three steps, and none of them costs anything:
- At the hotel, before unpacking. Lift the corner of the fitted sheet at the head of the bed and look at the mattress seam and around the box spring: you are looking for small dark specks, not insects. Keep the suitcase on the metal luggage rack, never on the bed or the floor.
- Coming home, do not take the suitcase to the bedroom. Open it in the garage, the entryway or the laundry room.
- The dryer, not the washer. It is the heat of drying that kills, not the wash. Thirty minutes on high for everything that travelled, including what was never worn.
If you are already past that, just say so on the phone. A case caught early, in one bedroom, is the cheapest job on this page; the same case six months later has the living room and the baseboards.
The rest of Dorval is an ordinary residential city, with post-war houses along the lake and newer streets behind them. There mice, carpenter ants and wasps lead, on the usual calendar. The warehouse and cargo sector feeds the rats.
Bed Bugs
The hardest pest on this page, and the one where do-it-yourself does the most damage.
What you see: bites in a line or a small cluster on skin left uncovered at night, then small dark spots near the mattress seam and in the headboard joints.
Why Dorval: travel. A suitcase, a carry-on, a uniform brought home. Unlike a couch picked up at the curb, nobody knows when it came in, so the inspection covers the whole room rather than one object.
What fixes it: preparation and follow-up. They live for months without feeding, so the second visit is not optional. Do not take anything out of the room before we have looked.
From $429, up to $549 for a 10 ½, and $469 for a house.
Mice
Call a pest exterminator for mice early rather than late. One mouse in October is a family in January, and an exterminator for one mouse is the cheapest visit on this page.
What you see: droppings along a baseboard, the size of a grain of rice, then scratching in a wall around dusk.
Why Dorval: a mouse fits through a gap the width of a pencil. Hardened weatherstripping at the attached garage door is our number one entry point, then the dryer vent and the pipe runs. The large maintained grass areas around the installations keep a reserve of them nearby.
What fixes it: finding the entries, not just laying bait. You get the list in writing, with what we sealed and what is left to do.
If the house is a rental or you are away often, tell us: an empty house is quieter, so activity goes unnoticed for longer and the first sign is usually droppings in a cupboard rather than a noise at night.
From $409 in a unit, $429 for a house. Perimeter control is $299.
Carpenter Ants
A carpenter ant exterminator looks for water before looking for ants. They do not eat wood, they hollow out damp wood to nest in.
What you see: big black ants indoors, sawdust under a window or a porch, and a swarm in May. Winged ants mean an established colony.
Why Dorval: the streets along the lake have older houses, big trees and wooden porches, and being near the water keeps outdoor wood damp longer.
What fixes it: treating the colony and fixing the moisture. Treating the house without looking at the trees and the back of the yard means doing it again next year.
Indoor from $399, $399 for a house. Outdoors, $129 for one visit or $327 for three.
Wasps, Cockroaches and Rats
Wasps peak in August: steady traffic at one point, a soffit, the corner of a shed, a hole in the lawn. Do not touch it yourself. One nest is $189, a full treatment is $259.
An exterminator for cockroaches treats a building, not a door: roaches move through plumbing stacks and shared walls, so an exterminator for roaches covers the neighbouring units. From $429 in a unit, $469 for a house, $499 for a restaurant.
Rats follow containers, loading docks and construction sites, so mostly the edge of the cargo sector. From $409, perimeter control $299.

Tell us what you are seeing and what kind of home it is. If it is bed bugs, tell us how long and whether anyone has travelled. A photo helps: a blurry insect is usually enough.
When Dorval Pests Show Up, Month by Month
- March to May. Carpenter ants swarm once the wood thaws. March break and then spring travel bring bed bugs back.
- June to August. Wasps peak in August, and travel season makes summer our biggest period for bed bugs.
- September to November. The first cold nights push mice indoors.
- December to February. Holiday travel, then the suitcases coming home. A case that appears in January often started in December.
Why Call Us Instead of Someone Else
- The price before the visit. Not a range: the number published on this page.
- We do not sell products. We do the treatment.
- Unmarked vans. No logo on the vehicles or the clothing. With bed bugs it is the first thing people ask.
- Follow-up is included. If it comes back inside the warranty, so do we, at no cost.
- Approved products. Registered for occupied homes, and no incident reported to the Quebec Poison Control Centre in 14 years.

Questions from Dorval Residents
I travel often. How do I avoid bringing bed bugs home?
Three steps, all free. At the hotel, before unpacking, lift the corner of the fitted sheet at the head of the bed and look at the mattress seam and around the box spring, looking for small dark specks rather than insects; keep the suitcase on the metal luggage rack, never on the bed or the floor. Coming home, open the suitcase in the garage, the entryway or the laundry room, not the bedroom. Then the dryer, not the washer: it is the heat of drying that kills, thirty minutes on high for everything that travelled, including what was never worn.
How much does bed bug extermination cost?
From $429 for a unit, up to $549 for a 10 ½ depending on the number of rooms, and $469 for a house. The price covers both visits, because the eggs survive the first treatment. The inspection is included. A case still confined to one bedroom costs the bottom of that range; the same case six months later costs the top.
What is the average cost of pest control in Quebec?
The averages you find quote an inspection billed separately, then a treatment somewhere between a few hundred and over a thousand dollars. We do not work from an average: $399 for insects and $409 for mice in a 4 ½, inspection included, and the full grid is published on this page.
When should I call an exterminator?
As soon as the signs repeat: bites that come back every night, noises several nights running, droppings you keep finding in the same place. For bed bugs, do not wait until you see one: dark specks at the mattress seam are enough to call on, and a case caught early stays in one bedroom.
How do I choose an exterminator?
Licensed technicians, liability insurance, and a written warranty with the follow-up inside it rather than billed separately. Then three questions: is the price given before the visit or after the inspection? Does the quote cover the treatment or only the inspection? And what happens if it comes back inside the warranty?
Do you handle raccoons and skunks?
No. We do not trap or relocate wildlife: no raccoons, skunks, squirrels, groundhogs, birds or bats. That needs a licensed wildlife specialist. We treat mice, rats and insects.
The prices shown are estimates for the most common cases and can change without notice. We do our best to keep them current. Your final price depends on what the technician finds on site: how far the infestation has spread, how easy the affected areas are to reach, the condition of the property, and how many visits the job needs. You always get the exact price before any work starts.
