Professional Pest Control Company in Basking Ridge, NJ

The manager of a commercial warehouse in Basking Ridge, NJ called our office after multiple workers spotted an massive amount of stink bugs in one of break rooms. So we were sent out to inspect and treat. As we inspected the break room, we noticed that the stink bugs were coming from a small hole in the ceiling tile. We asked the manager what was above that area and he said the attic, so we inspected that area too! As we were examining the attic, we found even more stink bugs throughout the area as well as a couple of small holes in the roof. Turns out this was how the stink bugs were getting inside the warehouse!

Stink bugs get their name for the stench they give off when crushed. They are also known as shield bugs because of the shield-like shape of their body. stink bugs can be green or brown in color and approximately one-half-inch in size, possibly even larger. As the weather turns cooler in the fall, they will move indoors and spend the winter months inside of wall voids, attics, flooring, and other hidden areas of the home. Once inside, stink bugs are very difficult to control. The best strategy when it comes to stink bugs is to prevent them from ever entering your home or business!

We informed the manager about the holes in the roof and he mentioned that he will hire a roofer to take care of that. In the meantime, to control the stink bugs, we installed a fly light up in the attic and in the break room. These devices use an insect-attracting lamp to lure insects to an adhesive trapping glue board. They lure and capture virtually any flying insects such as house flies, bottle flies, mosquitoes, gnats, and moths. Afterward, we treated around the exterior door frames and window frames of the warehouse with a residual application. When the stink bugs land on the treated surfaces they will come in contact with the application and be eliminated. Lastly, we scheduled several follow-up visits to monitor the infestation and apply any additional treatments if needed.

This homeowner in Basking Ridge, NJ, was sitting outside on her back porch, enjoying the beautiful weather. Suddenly, she noticed a number of yellow jackets flying around the corner of her pergola. Since she is HIGHLY allergic to bee stings, she carefully went inside and gave our Pest Control division a call. 

Once we arrived, we equipped our protective bee suit and began our inspection. That's when we noticed that the yellow jackets were harboring inside a small gap between the top of the pergola and the siding of the home. So we grabbed our extendable pole, attached a knockdown dusting application to it, and applied it directly into the gap. This treatment will exterminate the yellow jackets almost immediately. A short while later, we applied a residual application to the area in order to eliminate any yellow jackets that return to this area as well as prevent them from building a nest. 

As we were treating this home in Basking Ridge, NJ, we noticed a large amount of yellow jackets going in and out of a small gap up in the corner of the pergola in the front yard. To eliminate them quickly, we injected a residual dusting application directly into the gap. Once they’re gone, we’re also going to treat the area with a liquid non repellant. This product will exterminate any remaining yellow jackets that return to this area as well as prevent them from building another nest. 

A property manager of an office building in Basking Ridge, NJ, noticed an unusually large amount of yellow jackets hovering around a particular area on his building near the security camera. Since he uses our Pest Control services at his home, he decided to give us a call to come out and treat his business! 

As we closely inspected the area, we discovered that the yellow jackets weren't nesting around the security camera, they were nesting IN the security camera! This presents a dangerous situation for anyone coming into the office, as the yellow jackets were right by the front door and they're known to be quite aggressive and territorial. 

For treatment, we injected a knockdown aerosol application directly into the small gaps of the security camera. This treatment will rapidly exterminate the yellow jackets. Afterward, we treated the area, as well as the entire building, we a liquid residual product. This treatment will exterminate any remaining yellow jackets as well as prevent them from building a nest. 

A new customer in Basking Ridge, NJ called our office after finding a number of ants in her family room. During our inspection, we found the ants crawling along the baseboards and identified them as odorous house ants. Odorous house ants are tiny, fast ants that give off a rotten coconut smell when they're crushed or startled. After identifying them, we inspected the exterior and noticed that the ants were infesting the home by crawling underneath a small exposed section of the siding on the side of the building.

We treated the entire exterior of the home and, with the owners permission, the baseboards, cracks, & crevices in the family room with a non-repellant liquid application. The odorous house ants will come in contact with this application, return to their nest, and then transfer the treatment throughout their colony. A short while later, the ants will be exterminated. Once they're eliminated, the homeowner will contact a contractor to repair the siding.
