Why Broadlands Homeowners Choose Better Termite
57 Years Protecting Loudoun County Homes
Broadlands is a 1,500-acre master-planned community in Ashburn with roughly 4,000 homes built around preserved wetlands, stream corridors, and 150 acres of green space. That environment is great for families. It also makes Broadlands one of the more pest-active communities in Loudoun County.
Better Termite & Pest Control has been protecting homes across Northern Virginia since 1968. We are a third-generation, family-owned company with over 300 years of combined team experience. Our internal research team removed 9 of the harshest chemicals used in our industry and replaced them with reduced-risk products like Essentria, Alpine, and borate-based solutions.
When you call 703-683-2000, you talk to a licensed technician who knows the pest patterns in Loudoun County. No phone trees. No outsourced call centers. Over 400 families have given us 5-star reviews on Google. We have treated over 100,000 homes across the DC Metro area.

Why Broadlands Has Year-Round Pest Pressure
Built on Wetlands, Surrounded by Wildlife
Broadlands was literally built on wetlands. The community is a National Wildlife Federation Certified Community Wildlife Habitat, with Stream Valley Park running through the center and Beaverdam Run draining toward Broad Run and Goose Creek. These waterways, retention ponds, and preserved woodlands are highways for wildlife and the pests that come with them. Mice, voles, and chipmunks travel along stream corridors directly into Broadlands backyards. Mosquitoes breed in every stagnant pool, clogged storm drain, and poorly maintained HOA pond.
The 23 tot lots, community pools, and miles of walking trails throughout the neighborhood create dense landscaping that harbors spiders, ants, and stinging insects. Native plant gardens and mature tree canopy provide cover for wasps and yellowjackets to nest around rooflines and eaves. Broadlands Marketplace and Village Center add commercial dumpsters and food waste that support rodent populations, which then spread into nearby homes.
Modern Homes with Hidden Entry Points
Most Broadlands homes were built between the late 1990s and mid-2000s by Van Metre and associated builders. Brick fronts with vinyl or aluminum siding and attached garages are standard. These homes are relatively new, but 20-30 years of settling has opened gaps around utility penetrations, soffit lines, and garage door seals. Stink bugs pour through siding weep holes every fall. Ants trail along foundation cracks into kitchens. Mice squeeze under garage doors through gaps smaller than a dime.
Townhomes and condos in Southern Walk, Demott & Silver, and The Arbors share walls that let pests travel between units. Garden-style apartments with wooded surroundings face ongoing pressure from mice, outdoor roaches, and spiders. Whether you own a single-family home off Claiborne Parkway or a condo near Waxpool Road, the pest challenges in Broadlands are real and persistent.
Full-Service Pest Control for Broadlands Homes
35+ Pests Covered Under One Plan
Our TriGuard Pest plan covers everything that shows up in Broadlands homes: ants, carpenter ants, roaches, spiders, stink bugs, centipedes, silverfish, camel crickets, earwigs, fleas, ticks, wasps, hornets, yellow jackets, carpenter bees, and more. Every visit starts with a full inspection and ends with targeted treatment inside and outside your home.
Treatments last roughly 90-120 days. Our triannual schedule (3 visits per year) keeps coverage continuous with no gaps. If pests show up between visits, call us. We come back and retreat at no extra charge. Plans start at $39/month with a one-time setup fee. No binding contracts.
Foundation to Roofline, Inside and Out
Inside, we treat cracks and crevices in kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and utility rooms where pests harbor. Outside, we apply a perimeter barrier around your foundation, treating mulch beds, weep holes, soffits, and common entry points. In Broadlands townhomes and shared-wall condos, we pay special attention to wall voids and utility chases where pests travel between units. The non-repellent products we use are picked up by pests and carried back to colonies, eliminating them at the source.
Termite Protection for Broadlands Properties
Moist Clay Soils and Preserved Wetlands Create Termite Risk
Broadlands sits on clay-rich soils with high moisture content, bordered by wetlands and stream corridors. Subterranean termites thrive in exactly these conditions. They travel through the soil and enter homes through foundation cracks, expansion joints, and anywhere wood contacts the ground. Damage can reach tens of thousands of dollars before you notice any visible signs.
We use the Sentricon baiting system. Stations go into the ground around your foundation. When foraging termites find the bait, they carry it back to the colony, including the queen. This eliminates the entire colony at its source rather than just creating a temporary barrier. Our TriGuard with Sentricon Bundle starts at $69/month and includes full pest control, termite baiting, and a yearly termite inspection.
Annual Inspections Catch Problems Early
Every Sentricon plan includes annual inspections where a licensed technician checks stations, monitors for new activity, and inspects your home for signs of termite damage. For active infestations, we offer liquid trenching treatments that create a direct barrier. If you are building or renovating in Broadlands, ask about our borate wood treatments for built-in protection from day one.
Every visit includes dewebbing eaves and entry points around your Broadlands home
Odorous house ants are the most common ant invading Broadlands kitchens and bathrooms
Stink bugs cluster around windows and siding gaps in Broadlands homes every fall
Tamper-proof bait stations protect Broadlands homes adjacent to Stream Valley Park wildlife corridors
Subterranean termites thrive in Broadlands' moist clay soils and can reach homes undetected
Mosquito Control in Broadlands
Wetlands, Retention Ponds, and Storm Drains Fuel Mosquito Breeding
Broadlands was built around preserved wetlands, and the community's stormwater system relies on retention ponds and drainage channels throughout the neighborhood. Add community pools, tot lot drainage, and the Beaverdam Run corridor, and you have mosquito breeding habitat surrounding almost every home. From April through October, these conditions produce heavy mosquito populations that make backyards, patios, and walking trails uncomfortable.
Our technicians use a backpack mist blower to spray vegetation edges, shaded tree lines, and dense landscaping where mosquitoes rest during the day. The treatment combines a fast-acting adulticide with an insect growth regulator that stops new mosquitoes from maturing. This typically cuts mosquito numbers by over 50% within 24 hours of each treatment.
IN2Care: A No-Spray Option for Broadlands Yards
We also offer the IN2Care system for homeowners who prefer a no-spray approach. IN2Care traps lure mosquitoes to a station that infects them with an agent they carry back to nearby breeding sites, multiplying the effect. This is especially effective in Broadlands where standing water is close to homes. Our SeasonGuard+ plan bundles mosquito, tick, pest, and termite coverage starting at $95/month.
Rodent Control in Broadlands
Stream Corridors and Green Space Push Rodents Into Homes
Broadlands' 150 acres of preserved green space, Stream Valley Park trails, and wooded buffers support healthy populations of mice, voles, and chipmunks. These animals travel along creek corridors and landscaped edges directly into residential areas. When temperatures drop in fall and winter, mice push indoors through garage door gaps, utility line penetrations, and foundation cracks. A mouse only needs a gap the size of a dime to get inside your Broadlands home.
Commercial areas like Broadlands Marketplace and Village Center generate food waste that supports rat populations. These rodents then spread into nearby homes, especially in townhomes and garden-style apartments at The Arbors and Southern Walk where wooded borders provide cover.
Our 4-Step Rodent Approach
We start with a thorough inspection to find active trails, droppings, and entry points. We set up tamper-proof bait stations and snap traps in strategic locations. Follow-up visits at weeks 1 and 3 confirm the treatment is working. Ongoing maintenance keeps populations in check long-term. One-time rodent services run $250-$400. You can also add rodent coverage to a recurring plan starting at $39/month.
