Cowleys Pest Services Before & After Photos

One day this customer in Fair Haven, NJ noticed a woodpecker was flying around one of his windows and causing extensive damage to the header! So he called our Bird Services division for help and we were sent out. 

Looking at the photo, you can see that the woodpecker caused some visible and serious damage to the header! First, we cleaned the area, stuffed the opening with steel mesh, and sealed it in place with wood putty. We made sure to blend it in with the same color of the home. Then to deter the woodpecker from pecking another hole, we added two Intimidator bird flashers. The Intimidator reflects the suns rays as the wind spins it around and gives off Ultra Violet "flashes" (ultra violet is a color that birds can see but humans can not). The woodpeckers will relate the UV flashes as a danger and stay away. This is a humane and effective visual deterrent to prevent the woodpeckers from causing any further damage to the home.

This customer in Fair Haven, NJ was cleaning out his attic one day, when all of a sudden he was attacked and stung by several yellow jackets! Since he was a Home Protection Plan customer, he immediately called our office and we were sent out to inspect and treat.

After equipping our protective bee suit, we thoroughly inspected the attic. A few moments into our inspection, we found a HUGE yellow jackets nest underneath the attic insulation in the corner of the attic! First, we injected a knockdown dusting application into the nest. A few moments later, we injected a knockdown aerosol product. Both of these treatments will rapidly exterminate the yellow jackets. A short while later, we removed the nest & any contaminated insulation, and properly disposed of them.

This homeowner in Fair Haven, NJ had several squirrels nesting underneath the solar panels on his roof! Since he had used our pest control service before, he knew we have a nuisance wildlife division and called our office. We were sent out to handle the squirrel problem.

A short while after setting up our devices we successfully and safely retrieved all the squirrels and took them to a safer location. Now we need to prevent them or any other nuisance wildlife from harboring underneath the solar panels. To accomplish that, we disinfected the area underneath the solar panels and then installed a solar panel exclusion kit around the entire perimeter of the solar panels! The solar panel exclusion kit creates a physical barrier to prevent the squirrels from accessing the area beneath the solar panels. This will protect the equipment from any future intrusions from all nuisance wildlife as well as nuisance birds!

One warm morning, this homeowner in Fair Haven, NJ opened his office window, only to spot a huge bald-faced hornet's nest right next to it! Since he is a Home Protection Plan customer, he called our office and we were sent out. 

Since the nest was way high up on the roof, we grabbed our extendable pole, attached a knockdown aerosol application to it, and applied it liberally to the nest. This treatment rapidly exterminates the bald-faced hornets. A short while later, we removed the nest and applied a liquid residual to this area. This application with eliminate any returning bald-faced hornets and prevent them, and any other stinging insects, from building another nest. 

This customer in Fair Haven, NJ recently had a raccoon living in his attic. Although our Little Rascal Nuisance Wildlife team had safely removed the raccoon, it left a huge mess. The insulation was soaked with urine and loaded with feces from the raccoon. So our Attic Systems team was sent out to remove and replace the insulation.

First, we carefully removed all of the contaminated insulation and debris throughout the attic and then disinfected it. We then placed several measuring markers throughout the attic to guarantee that the proper amount of R-value is added and installed Tight Shell Can Light Covers over the recessed lights in the attic. These are made out of a fire resistant material and is specifically designed to stop unwanted air leakage through the recessed lights.

Lastly, we added approximately 12 inches TruSoft blown-in cellulose insulation throughout the attic. Trusoft fills the attic to its recommended insulation levels, has the highest Class-1 fire safety rating, is resistant to mold and pests, is eco-friendly, maximizes home comfort, and optimizes energy usage for year-round peace and savings for the homeowner!
