Residential Pest Control | Gernatt Pest Solutions | WNY

In Western New York, seasonal pest activity is more than a nuisance—it’s a recurring threat to your family’s comfort and safety. Gernatt Pest Solutions delivers certified, family-safe pest control tailored to residential needs. Whether you’re facing ants in the kitchen, wasps around the deck, or rodents in the basement, our NYSDEC 7A-certified treatments are built for lasting protection. We don’t just spray and leave—we identify root causes, seal entry points, and build a defensive barrier around your home. With every treatment, we use products that are safe for pets and children once dry, offering true peace of mind.

With over 20 years of field experience, Ben Gernatt delivers the precision that comes from inspecting, diagnosing, and solving pest issues in thousands of local homes. As a certified NYSDEC 7A applicator, his approach goes beyond surface-level fixes. We use targeted applications on home exteriors, low-impact interior treatments as needed, and eco-conscious solutions like essential oils and pheromones. The result? Headache-free protection that works the first time—and keeps working. This isn’t guesswork; it’s professional pest control designed for homes like yours.

We know what matters most to you: your family, your pets, and your peace of mind. That’s why every product we use is chosen for its safety and effectiveness. Once dry, our treatments are completely safe to be around—no need to leave the house for hours or worry about toxic residue. Prefer a chemical-free approach? We also offer botanical solutions, exclusion work, and mechanical traps tailored to your comfort level. It’s all part of our commitment to balancing real results with residential safety.

Are your treatments safe for kids and pets?
Yes. All our products are safe to be around once they’ve dried. We also offer botanical and chemical-free alternatives if you prefer.
How many treatments will I need?
It depends on the pest. Wasps and ants often require one visit, while cockroaches or rodents may take 2–5 treatments.
Do I need to leave the house during service?
Usually not. Most treatments allow you to stay home safely—especially once dry. We'll advise based on your situation.
Can you prevent pests from coming back?
Yes. Our exclusion work seals entry points and creates a perimeter to help keep pests from returning.
What areas do you serve for residential calls?
We serve homes throughout Western New York, including Erie, Niagara, Cattaraugus, and surrounding counties.
