Greenwood is Johnson County's largest city and the closest one to our Shelbyville office, so it is on our routes nearly every day. The housing runs from the older homes around Old Town Greenwood and the neighborhoods off Madison Avenue, through the ranches and split-levels built in the 1960s and 70s, to the newer subdivisions spreading west through Center Grove and south toward Whiteland. Add the apartment communities along US 31 and County Line Road and the restaurants around Greenwood Park Mall, and every kind of pest problem shows up somewhere in the city.
Pest Assassin has serviced Greenwood since 2018. Residential plans with no contracts, commercial programs for the retail and apartment corridor, and a technician who inspects before treating anything.
Pests We Treat Most in Greenwood
- Ants Odorous house ants and pavement ants are the top call from spring through fall in every part of Greenwood.
- Rodents Mice in the older neighborhoods each fall, and rats around the restaurant and retail corridor along US 31.
- Roaches German cockroaches spread through shared walls in the apartment communities, and American roaches come up through basement drains in the older homes.
- Termites The 1960s and 70s housing stock has the slab cracks, crawl spaces, and mulch beds that subterranean termites use.
- Stinging Pests Paper wasps under eaves and yellow jackets in wall voids and ground nests from July through September.
- Spiders Brown recluse in the older homes and garages, and wolf spiders coming in from the fields around Center Grove in the fall.

About Greenwood, Indiana
Greenwood sits directly south of Indianapolis in Johnson County along US 31 and Interstate 65. It is known for Old Town Greenwood and its restaurants, the Greenwood Park Mall and the retail corridor around it, parks like Craig Park and Freedom Park, and the rapidly growing Center Grove area to the west. Greenwood has made a point of keeping green space and tree cover as it grows, which is good for residents and for the wildlife and insects that share it.
We regularly service Old Town Greenwood, Center Grove, the neighborhoods off Madison Avenue, the US 31 corridor, the County Line Road apartment communities, Craig Park, the neighborhoods toward Whiteland, and Stones Crossing. If you are anywhere in or around Greenwood, we cover you.
Greenwood Pest Control Questions
It depends entirely on the pest. Ants and wasps are usually handled in one visit with a follow-up. German cockroaches take two or three visits because egg cases hatch after the first treatment. Termites and wildlife are jobs, not visits. The inspection tells you which you have before anything is quoted.
Yes. Treatments are targeted, so a visit can address ants in the kitchen and wasps on the deck and set rodent stations on the same trip. Anything outside your plan's covered list is quoted before we treat it.
Live trapping and one-way doors are the standard humane methods, and they work when the entry points are sealed afterward. Indiana regulates trapping and relocation of wildlife, so this is a job for a licensed company rather than a hardware-store trap.
Yes, both individual units and entire communities. Roaches and bed bugs travel through shared walls, so we work with property managers to treat connected units together. Bed bug heat treatment is handled by Instant Bed Bug Assassins.
