ABOUT US

Our Roots: Local Ownership and Regional Commitment

Gernatt Pest Solutions was founded to raise the standard of professionalism and safety in pest control throughout Western New York. Owned and operated by Ben Gernatt, a 20-year industry veteran, our company is deeply rooted in the region—serving Erie, Niagara, Cattaraugus, Chautauqua, Allegany, Wyoming, Genesee, and Orleans counties. Our story began in Lawtons, NY, with a vision to blend advanced pest management techniques with the personalized service only a local expert can offer.

Ben’s journey from residential apprentice to Senior Inspector for leading regional firms set the bar for our company: technical mastery, reliability, and honest communication. Every service, from wasp nest removal in Buffalo to rodent exclusion in North Collins or commercial food facility treatments in Jamestown, is grounded in NYSDEC 7A and 7F certifications. We understand the unique challenges of Western New York homes and businesses—delivering pest solutions that are safe for families, pets, and the environment. Our commitment extends beyond treatment: we provide education, prevention strategies, and owner accountability that national franchises can’t match.
