Plymouth, Massachusetts – July 31, 2026 – PRESSADVANTAGE –
Pilgrim Pest Professionals has been named a winner in the pest control category of the Best of the South Shore (BOSS) awards for 2026, marking the fourth consecutive year the company has received the recognition. The awards are presented by South Shore Home, Life and Style magazine and are decided by public vote among readers across the South Shore region of Massachusetts.
The 2026 result extends a streak that began in 2023 and now spans four straight years of category recognition. The BOSS program invites residents to nominate and vote for local businesses across a wide range of categories each year, which means the pest control award reflects customer sentiment rather than the decision of an internal or industry panel. For a service business that works inside homes and places of business, that distinction carries weight.
“Winning this award four years in a row means a great deal because it comes directly from the people we serve,” said Daniel Milloy, general manager of Pilgrim Pest Professionals. “Our team shows up for South Shore families and businesses every day, and having residents vote for us again is the clearest sign that the work is landing where it matters most.”
Pilgrim Pest Professionals provides pest management and wildlife control services to residential, commercial, and municipal clients throughout southeastern Massachusetts. The company operates from its headquarters in Plymouth and has expanded its service area across the South Shore and surrounding communities over the past several years. Its work covers common household and structural pests as well as the seasonal wildlife issues that affect properties in the region. Demand for that work tends to rise and fall with the New England seasons, and the company staffs and schedules around those patterns so that customers can reach a technician when an issue appears rather than weeks later.
Company leadership tied the repeat recognition to an emphasis on trained technicians, responsive scheduling, and clear communication with customers before, during, and after a service visit. Pilgrim Pest Professionals has also maintained a record of local involvement, including charitable contributions to area organizations and support for veteran causes through community fundraising, activity the company describes as central to how it operates on the South Shore.
“We do not take this kind of support for granted,” Milloy said. “Each year we set out to give our customers a reason to choose us again, and this recognition tells us that we are meeting that standard. It also motivates the whole team to keep raising it.” The company said it plans to continue investing in staff training and service capacity through 2026.
The BOSS awards have grown into one of the more widely followed local recognition programs in the South Shore area, with readers of South Shore Home, Life and Style casting votes across dozens of business and lifestyle categories. Repeat recognition within a single category is relatively uncommon, and a four-year run reflects sustained customer preference rather than a single strong season. The company’s three earlier wins in the pest control category came in 2023, 2024, and 2025, and it was named Cranberry Country Chamber of Commerce Business of the Year for 2023.
Pilgrim Pest Professionals is a family-owned provider of pest management and wildlife control services based in Plymouth, Massachusetts. The company serves residential, commercial, and municipal clients across the South Shore and southeastern Massachusetts in accordance with applicable state licensing and industry standards.
