Groundhogs
Groundhogs will cause extensive damage to your property and landscape. Groundhogs rarely pose a threat to humans or pets, as they are more afraid of them than anything. They sometimes emit a shrill “whistle” when frightened and will run into their den opening. However, a cornered groundhog will fight to defend itself and, like all mammals, they can carry the rabies virus. Care and respect need to be taken when dealing with wildlife, including the groundhog. We offer Groundhog Trapping Service in New York NY, Westchester County NY, Rockland County NY and Orange County NY. Give Us A Call Today. 1-844-305-8999.

Webbing Clothes Moths
Webbing Clothes Moths tend to hide when disturbed, so you might not notice you have an infestation until after the moths have already damaged your fabric, fur, or feathered items. Clothes moths are often confused with Indianmeal moths, but the two are actually very different, primarily in the materials on which they feed and the places they are found. Indianmeal moths are pantry pests while clothes moths, as their name indicates, feed on fabrics. If you see moth damage Give Us A Call Today. 1-844-305-8999.

The return of winter means you'll be spending more time in your home, but you won’t be the only one seeking shelter. As temperatures drop, mice and rats head indoors to search for food, and they pick your house for their new residence. These pesky pests invade your home in a variety of crafty ways. Mice can squeeze through a hole the size of a pencil eraser. If you see mice in your home Give Us A Call Today. 1-844-305-8999.

Differences between mice and rats may seem obvious to many, but some of the differences may be more subtle than you think. The typical House Mouse is anywhere from two to four inches in length, as opposed to the common, and much larger, Norway Rat which measures seven to nine inches in length. Of course they both fall into the rodent family and both cause extensive damage if they invade your home.

Boxelder Bug
The boxelder bug is a North American species of true bug. At about 1/2-inh long, boxelder bugs are black with three red stripes, vertical edge lines on their bodies, and red lines on the edges of its wings. It is found primarily on boxelder trees, as well as maple and ash trees. You may find the red edging of its black wings to be rather pretty, but when boxelder bugs invade your home, they can become quite a nuisance! Although this red and black bug does not cause damage, few people enjoy having large insects crawling out of cracks, onto their walls, windows, lights, or furniture.

Many yellow jackets are ground-nesters. Their colonies can be found under porches or steps, in sidewalk cracks, around railroad ties or at the base of trees. Sometimes the queen uses a wall void of a building as a nesting place. Some yellow jackets build aerial nests in bushes or low-hanging branches or in the corners of buildings and other manmade structures.

Recognizing that you have clothing moths will be your first step to eliminating them from your home. The signs aren’t usually apparent until you discover damage wrought by the clothes moth larvae. Clothing moths primarily seek out animal-based fabrics, as well as fur, hair, leather, feathers and taxidermy. If those materials can’t be found, the larvae of these bugs will also eat lint, dust, cotton and linen because they are often saturated with tasty oils.

The American cockroach, also colloquially known as the waterbug, but not a true waterbug since it is not aquatic, or misidentified as the palmetto bug, is the largest species of common cockroach, and often considered a pest.
American cockroach are an average length of around 4 cm (1.6 in) and about 7 mm (0.28 in) tall.[8] They are reddish brown and have a yellowish margin on the body region behind the head. Immature cockroaches resemble adults except they are wingless.
The insect can travel quickly, often darting out of sight when someone enters a room, and can fit into small cracks and under doors despite its fairly large size. It is considered one of the fastest running insects.
