Company Background
About Birch Fumigators
Birch Fumigators has a history most companies can only claim on a banner. The site says it has served Edmonton since 1900, through two world wars and the Depression, and that the Baxter family has owned it since 1964. The office and yard are at 20508 118A Ave NW in the Winterburn industrial area on the west edge of the city, which City of Edmonton assessment records list as commercial.
The pest list is long and local: mice, voles, squirrels, skunks and porcupines, pigeons and other birds, cluster flies, hornets and wasps, ants, spiders, cockroaches, bed bugs and mosquitoes. For homes, Birch sells recurring service on a weekly, monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly schedule as well as one-time calls. It describes humane rodent control methods and puts weight on sanitation advice and monitoring so problems are caught early.
The team page names people, which is rarer than it should be. Mark Beck joined in 2011 as a trainee technician and became operations manager in 2018. Ryan Baxter, of the owning family, and Cameron Moffitt work in sales and service. The site shows logos for the Pest Management Association of Alberta, the Canadian Pest Management Association, the National Pest Management Association and the Better Business Bureau.
Birch's Google rating, 4.5 from 137 reviews, is at the low end of this list, so read recent reviews for your kind of problem. Office hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays. The company also sponsors the Stollery Children's Hospital and a veterans food bank.
