Green Hills Pest Control — Protecting Homes & Businesses From the Mall to Radnor Lake for 40+ Years
Family-owned pest protection for Green Hills’ retail corridor, mid-century homes, and Radnor Lake — for over 40 years.
Green Hills is Nashville’s premier shopping and dining district, anchored by The Mall at Green Hills and the Hillsboro Pike corridor, home to more than 125 stores and restaurants and the legendary Bluebird Cafe, the songwriter’s venue that helped launch Taylor Swift and generations of country artists before her. Most of the neighborhood’s homes are mid-century brick ranches built in the postwar decades, sitting on quiet residential streets that stretch toward Radnor Lake State Park’s 1,200-plus wooded acres just a few minutes south. That mix, a dense luxury retail and restaurant corridor, established mid-century housing stock, and a major state park nearby, is what shapes local pest pressure differently from a straightforward residential suburb. For more than 40 years, our family-owned team has protected Green Hills homes and businesses, from the Hillsboro Pike corridor out toward Belle Meade, Forest Hills, and Oak Hill.
Being home to Nashville’s busiest retail corridor and a mix of established mid-century housing shapes which pests show up and where. Here’s what we see most in Green Hills homes and businesses:
Retail & Restaurant
Retail & restaurant commercial pest pressure
With more than 125 stores and restaurants concentrated around The Mall at Green Hills and the Hillsboro Pike corridor, commercial pest pressure here is constant, ants, roaches, and rodents drawn to food service and high foot traffic. We offer dedicated commercial pest programs for retail and restaurant spaces, scheduled around business hours rather than during peak times.
Termites
Termites in mid-century ranch construction
Green Hills’ brick ranch homes, many dating to the postwar decades, are exactly the age and construction subterranean termites target most. They swarm in spring (typically March through May) and feed year-round below grade. An annual inspection and a monitored barrier matter especially here, where so much of the neighborhood’s housing stock has been standing for 50 years or more.
Ticks & Mosquitoes
Ticks and mosquitoes near Radnor Lake
Radnor Lake State Park’s 1,200-plus acres of hiking trails, wooded terrain, and an 85-acre lake give ticks and mosquitoes plenty of habitat, and both travel easily into nearby yards. Ticks ride in on pets and pant cuffs after time on the trails, while low, shaded spots near the lake breed mosquitoes after rain.
Rodents
Rodents from wooded lots & parkland
Homes on the quieter, more wooded streets near Radnor Lake see more rodent pressure from the tree line than a home in the busier commercial core. Mice move from bordering woods into garages, crawlspaces, and attics looking for shelter, and we seal entry points with that reality in mind.
Ants & Roaches
Ants, roaches & household pests
Like any dense, established neighborhood, Green Hills sees a steady baseline of ants, roaches, and other household invaders working their way in around foundations, utility lines, and doorways. We treat the entry points as well as the interior, so the fix actually lasts.
Seasonal Rodents
The fall rodent push
As temperatures drop from September into November, mice move off wooded lots and parkland and into garages, crawlspaces, attics, and even commercial buildings looking for a warm winter home. Sealing entry points before the first cold snap is far easier than evicting an established population in January.
Your Green Hills Pest Calendar
What to expect through the year across Green Hills’ retail corridor, homes, and Radnor Lake — and when to act:
Spring
(Mar–May)
Termite swarms begin around mid-century ranch construction, and the season’s first ticks and mosquitoes become active around Radnor Lake. Best window for a termite inspection.
Summer
(Jun–Aug)
Ticks and mosquitoes peak near Radnor Lake’s trails and shoreline; ant and roach pressure rises around restaurants and retail with the summer rush; wasp nests grow large on decks and eaves.
Fall
(Sep–Nov)
Rodents move off wooded lots and parkland and into homes and commercial buildings ahead of winter. Prime time to seal up.
Winter
(Dec–Feb)
Rodents settle into attics, crawlspaces, and building voids; overwintering pests hide indoors. The quiet season to plan exclusion and lock in termite protection.

We are new customers of U.S. Pest, having been referred by our next door neighbors. Jimmy was awesome! He called and gave us an ETA, which we really appreciate. Jimmy was very thorough and explained the treatment as he serviced our property inside and out. We look forward to a long relationship with US Pest.
