Victorian-era Swarthmore and leafy Nether Providence, from just next door in Morton. Same prices, no travel fee.
Swarthmore Borough (6,543 people in 2020) and Wallingford, the largest community in Nether Providence Township, share a school district, the Media/Wawa train line and Crum Creek, which runs between them. Prodigy Pest Solutions has been family-owned by Matt and Sabrina Kelley since 2012, and we are based in Morton, about a mile from Swarthmore. We handle mice, ants, stinging insects, carpenter bees, mosquitoes, termites and bed bugs in both towns.
Every technician who comes to your home is a Pennsylvania state-certified pesticide applicator, and Matt is an Associate Certified Entomologist (ACE). Philadelphia Magazine named us Best Bed Bug Removal. Fastest way to a price: text a photo of the pest, droppings or damage to 267-603-1811 for a fast, free quote.

Much of Swarthmore's housing dates from the Victorian period through the 1920s, and about 31% of homes in the 19081 ZIP were built before 1940 (U.S. Census). Older stone foundations, porches and attics give mice and insects easy ways in. Penn State Extension notes a mouse can fit through a hole about the size of a dime, so our rodent service seals gaps and holes smaller than a half dollar.
About 71% of homes in the 19086 ZIP are single detached houses, with a typical build year around 1961 (U.S. Census). Decks, wood trim, mulch beds and mature trees are where carpenter ants nest and carpenter bees bore.
The Delaware County Health Department reported West Nile virus-positive mosquito samples from the Cunningham Fields trap in Swarthmore in July, August and September 2025. In2Care mosquito stations help cut down backyard mosquitoes.
Crum Creek runs between the two towns and Ridley Creek forms Nether Providence's western edge, with the Taylor Memorial Arboretum in Wallingford and the Scott Arboretum on the Swarthmore College campus. Wooded creek banks mean ticks in season, so text us in the spring.
Penn State Extension says eastern subterranean termites are found throughout Pennsylvania, and swarms usually appear between February and June.
