Greenfield Park is a 4.8 km² borough of Longueuil. Founded in 1911, the former town was merged into Longueuil on January 1, 2002, and it is the only Longueuil borough with official bilingual status (arrondissement bilingue). The Wikipedia article describing it gives 17,084 residents at the 2006 census. The hôpital Charles-Le Moyne is on its territory, the borough office is on boulevard Churchill, the centre communautaire René-Veillet on rue Parklane, and boulevard Taschereau crosses it. Streets such as rue Bellevue and rue Hart are lined with single-family and split-level homes under mature trees.
An established, bilingual neighbourhood under the trees
Greenfield Park has more than a century of history as a municipality. Its residential streets, mature trees and decades-old houses make for a different profile than denser Vieux-Longueuil or Saint-Hubert.
The most common pests in Greenfield Park
Mice. Foundations and utility entries in houses several decades old let mice in during the fall. The page on mice in the house covers sealing.
Carpenter ants. Shade and moisture from mature trees, and the aged outdoor wood of decks and fences, attract colonies. See how to handle carpenter ants under mature trees.
Bed bugs. In rental units, they move from one unit to the next and arrive with furniture and moves. See the page on bed bugs and landlord obligations.
Wasps. Soffits, hedges and sheds host them from June to September: see wasp nests.
Squirrels and raccoons. Big trees give access to roofs. See the pages on squirrels and raccoons.
The local calendar
- April to June: carpenter ants.
- June to September: wasps.
- September to November: mice; squirrels looking for an attic.
- Year-round: bed bugs in rentals.
The work and the timing
In Greenfield Park, a typical job starts with a walk around the house: foundation, utility entries, outdoor wood, branches over the roof. For an apartment, the inspection has to include neighbouring units when bed bugs or cockroaches are involved. No timeline is guaranteed here: ask for the method and the number of visits in writing.

Frequently asked questions
Greenfield Park is part of Longueuil: which town do I pick on the form?
Pick Greenfield Park: the request is routed to the Longueuil agglomeration zone, just like Vieux-Longueuil and Saint-Hubert.
Why mice in Greenfield Park homes?
The borough was founded in 1911 and many of its houses are several decades old. Their foundations and utility entries have had time to crack, which lets mice in during the fall.
Do big trees attract carpenter ants?
Indirectly. Mature trees keep shade and moisture around houses and drop dead branches. Aged outdoor wood, such as decks and fences, then becomes a good nest site.
Bed bugs in a rental unit: who has to act?
In Québec, the landlord must keep the dwelling in good habitable condition, and the tenant must notify them promptly. Adjacent units should also be inspected, because bed bugs move from one unit to the next.
Can a trapped raccoon be moved in Greenfield Park?
No. Longueuil, which includes Greenfield Park, is on the list of municipalities where moving a live raccoon or skunk is prohibited, because of raccoon rabies.
Who calls the exterminator in a Greenfield Park apartment building?
In a rental unit, the landlord has to have it treated, and the tenant must report the problem promptly, ideally in writing. In a single-family home, the owner-occupant makes the request.
Do the neighbourhood's big trees put the roof at risk?
A branch touching the roof is a bridge for squirrels and raccoons, and shade keeps soffits damp. Trimming back a few metres from the roof solves a good share of unwanted visits.
