Installing New Door Sweeps to Exclude the Rodents in Oceanport, NJ
This customer in Oceanport, NJ, had a problem with rodents infesting her business. How were they getting in? Through a large gap underneath the two front doors. After our Pest Control team came out and successfully removed all the rodents from the property, we were called out to prevent them from getting back in.
To do that, we installed an Xcluder® Rodent Proof Door Sweep underneath each door. Xcluder® door sweeps feature Xcluder fill fabric, providing a barrier impenetrable to rodents and other pests, along with a durable weather seal that can pay for itself in energy savings. Now the rodents are properly excluded from the front entrance of the building.
Back to Exclude the Mice from Home in Bradley Beach, NJ
We returned for a follow up visit at this property in Bradley Beach, NJ to check on the mice activity. As we inspected our rodent bait stations that we set up around the exterior and interior of the home, we found that several of them had activity in them. So we replenished each and every single one!
After that, since the mice were able to get into the home by squeezing through several gaps around a number of utility pipes, we began excluding them! First, we stuffed each opening with chew-proof mesh, which mice HATE the taste and feel of. Afterward, we sealed them with a waterproof, premium adhesive. After that, we scheduled several additional follow up visits with the homeowner to comeback and replenish the bait stations until the mice are no longer infesting the property.
Yellow Jackets on the Balcony in Rumson, NJ
A property manager of an adult community in Rumson, NJ, called our office after one of the residents reported seeing a bunch of yellow jackets on her balcony. Once we arrived, we immediately spotted the yellow jackets nest poking out of the siding of the balcony!
For treatment, we injected a knockdown aerosol and a knockdown dusting application. Both of the treatments rapidly exterminate the yellow jackets. A short while later, we removed the nest, disposed of it, and applied a liquid residual to the area. This application will exterminate any yellow jackets that return to this area as well as prevent them from rebuilding another nest.
Bald-Faced Hornets Setting Up Above the Back Door in Rumson, NJ
We were sent out to the home of a new customer in Rumson, NJ to get rid of some hornets. When we arrived, we found the volleyball-sized nest right above the back door. As we got closer, we identified them as bald-faced hornets.
These nasty stinging insects are aggressive and territorial. So aggressive that if anyone or anything comes within close proximity of their nest, they will attack! What's even worse is that they can actually sense vibrations in the air and remember an invader's face!
For treatment, we injected a knockdown dusting application into the nest, waited a few moments, and then injected a knockdown aerosol application. Both of these applications quickly exterminate the bald-faced hornets. We then removed the nest, properly disposed of it, and treated the area with a residual product. This will neutralize any bald-faced hornets that return to this area as well as prevent them, and all other stinging insects, from building another nest.
Mouse problem in Asbury Park, NJ
Recently, I was called out to an apartment unit in Asbury Park, NJ after the tenants had complained that mice were observed scampering about the living room. Upon arrival, I placed four RTU (“ready-to-use”) bait stations in the corners of the living room so that I could figure out where the mice were coming from based on whether and how much of the bait was taken.These bait stations fit flush against a wall or corner where mice travel and a curious mouse can’t resist entering and exploring. Once inside, the interior baffles lead them to the bait. These bait stations are the safest way to keep mouse-killing product in residential locations away from children and pets.
On my follow-up visit, I observed that two of the four stations had activity. For those two stations, the bait was pretty much gone. So, doing some more investigating for the access points into the apartment, I found a hole under the slats of a radiator behind the hot water pipe. I sealed the hole with a chew-proof copper mesh and rebated the RTUs. Once the mice hiding inside are eliminated, with their entry point closed, this troublesome mouse infestation should be completely resolved in a short amount of time.
