Parma Heights split off from Parma Township and incorporated in 1959, and most of the city’s housing followed shortly after — the population went from under 4,000 in 1950 to over 21,000 by 1990, which means the bulk of Parma Heights’ homes are now 50-70-year-old mid-century construction on fully built-out residential streets. With 97 acres of city parkland woven through the community, including the green space around Greenbrier Commons, mature trees and established landscaping are the norm here, not the exception — which is exactly the setup that gives mice, ants, and seasonal pests plenty of cover as they look for a way into a home that’s been settling for half a century.
Common pest pressures in Parma Heights
Mice, especially in homes from the 1950s-70s building boom with aging foundations and settled entry points around doors, windows, and utility lines
Ants, including carpenter ants in older homes with any moisture-damaged wood or aging siding
Spiders and overwintering pests, common in homes near Parma Heights’ parkland and mature residential tree cover
Wildlife, including squirrels and occasional raccoons near the city’s park space
Cockroaches, an occasional issue in the multi-family and rental housing found along the Pearl Road corridor

Why Parma Heights homeowners choose us
A city built out almost entirely in one era, like Parma Heights, has a very consistent pest pattern — but “consistent” doesn’t mean “one-size-fits-all.” We inspect each home for exactly how 50-70 years of settling has created its own specific entry points, rather than running the same generic treatment block by block.
Local expertise
Owner Shawn Payne’s two decades of hands-on pest management and horticulture work, including with the City of Cleveland’s Rockefeller Park Greenhouse, translates directly to the mid-century housing stock and mature, park-adjacent lots found throughout Parma Heights.

From the moment I spoke to Simone on the phone, I knew I was in good hands. She listened intently to the issue I was calling about, told me she would discuss a resolution shortly with her boss and get back to me. She contacted me shortly after with a potential solution and a few days later, Shawn showed up at my home ready to work. He went above and beyond for me and could not have been kinder. I highly recommend you call Lakewood Exterminating for your exterminating needs. Efficient, kind, fair pricing and peace of mind at its finest. Thank you!Posted on Google![]()

If you call this place, a human being answers the phone. They came out a few hours after we called. It’s been about 2 hours and the yellowjackets are mostly dead. Thanks everyone for letting us use our door again!
FAQ
Yes — homes from that era typically have aging foundation seals and settled entry points that create new mouse access over time, even without any visible damage. We inspect specifically for that.
Homes near mature parkland tend to see more ants, spiders, and occasional wildlife activity from the surrounding tree cover, so we factor that into the treatment plan.
Both — we work with landlords and property managers on multi-family buildings along the Pearl Road corridor as well as single-family homeowners throughout the rest of the city.
Traps handle the mice that are already inside; proofing finds and seals the entry points so new ones can’t get in — especially relevant in a city where most homes have been settling for 50+ years.
