Cowleys Pest Services Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Bedminster, NJ, was mowing his lawn and trimming his shrubs when he suddenly got attacked by a number of yellow jackets! He ran inside and called Cowleys. Moments later, we were dispatched to assist the customer. When we arrived, the first thing we did was equip our protective bee suit (so we don't get stung) and then began looking for the nest.

After a few moments of searching the area where the owner got stung, we finally located the basketball sized nest! It was cleverly camouflaged in the bushes and would only be noticeable if you were looking for it! We injected a knockdown aerosol application into the nest. A short while later, we injected a knockdown dusting application. Both of these treatments are going to neutralize the yellow jackets almost immediately. After a few moments went by, we removed the nest carefully and disposed of it properly. 

This customer in Montgomery, NJ frantically called Little Rascals after spotting a raccoon entering his home through the gable vent! Once we arrived, we installed a one-way device over the main access point and enclosed the area, temporarily, with hardware cloth. The one way device is designed to allow the raccoon to leave the area, but prevent it from returning the same way. We also installed several baited devices nearby.

A short while later, we safely retrieved the raccoon! We relocated it to a new, humane environment and then focused our attention to the gable vent. Other raccoons, and nuisance wildlife, can still enter the home via the gable vent and cause some serious damage to the attic. To prevent this, we installed a louvered vent guard. The louvered vent guard is made out of heavy-duty Galvannealed steel (which means it won't rust) and is customized to accommodate vents of all shapes and sizes. Now the gable vent is properly protected from raccoons and all other nuisance wildlife!

After getting attacked and stung by several yellow jackets, this homeowner in Montgomery, NJ called Cowleys for help and we were sent out.

When we arrived and spoke to the owner, he had mentioned that he was attacked by his shed, so that's where we began inspecting. Minutes into our investigation, we located a small in-ground yellow jackets nest right next to an old piece of wood behind the shed.

For treatment, we injected a knockdown dusting application directly into the in-ground nest. This will quickly neutralize the yellow jackets. A short while later, we removed the nest and the piece of wood next to the nest (in order to not attract termites to the area), disposed of them, and filled in the burrow. 

We were sent out to a home in Montgomery, NJ, to add some new blown-in cellulose insulation to the attic. The customer has owned the home for over 35 years and hasn't been up to his attic in over 15 years! Since almost all of the fiberglass insulation was falling apart, dirty, and no longer efficient, the first thing we did was take all of it out of the attic and dispose of it properly!

Nest, we disinfected the entire attic from top to bottom. Afterward, we added our makers, to ensure that the proper amount of R-value is added to the attic, and then added over 10 inches of TruSoft blown-in cellulose insulation. Trusoft fills the attic to its recommended insulation levels, has the highest Class-1 fire safety rating, is resistant to mold and pests and is eco-friendly. Not to mention that TruSoft blown-in cellulose insulation maximizes home comfort and optimizes energy usage for year-round peace and savings for the owner!

We were sent out to a home in Montgomery, NJ to remove a number of starlings that were harboring inside the chimney. Starlings have a reputation of being the most annoying and common home-invading birds in the US. They are stocky black birds with short tails, triangular wings, and long, pointed bills. They nest in holes and cavities and often use holes in buildings — primarily dryer vents. The starlings have also had a negative impact on the US economy and ecosystem, which designates them as an invasive species. The uric acid in starling feces can damage paint, plastic, canvas canopies, corrode stone, metal, and masonry. 

A short while after setting up our devices, we safely removed all of the starlings out of the chimney. Now, in order to make sure that both the chimney's are protected from future intrusions, we installed a chimney cap over each one. A chimney cap is a heavy-duty material that's constructed out of 24 Gauge Top and Flange, and 18 Gauge Galvanized Mesh! It is designed to prevent access to the chimney from all nuisance wildlife and birds. Now both chimneys are properly excluded!
