Pests We Treat Before & After Photos

Recently, we were sent out to an adult community in Pine Beach, NJ to eliminate an active bald-faced hornets nest in the garden area. Bald-faced hornets are social stinging insects that are a close relative to yellow jackets. The surface of their upper midsection almost looks triangular from the side, and they have white markings on their face. They're EXTREMELY aggressive and territorial. They won't hesitate to sting anything or anyone that invades their space.

After equipping our protective bee suit, we found the nest hanging in one of trees. We liberally treated the nest with a knockdown liquid product and a knockdown aerosol application. Both treatments will exterminate the bald-faced hornets quickly. A short while after, we removed the nest, and the branch it was attached to, and disposed of them both properly.

We were recently sent out to a home in Middletown, NJ, to treat for yellow jackets. Apparently, a swarm of yellow jackets was discovered as the homeowner was renovating the living room. Once we arrived, we equipped our protective bee suit, and began inspecting the living room. That's when we noticed the humongous yellow jackets inside the wall! Judging by its size, it's been there for quite some time!

For treatment, we injected a knockdown aerosol application into the nest, waited a few moments, and then injected a knockdown liquid application. Both of these treatments will quickly exterminate the yellow jackets. After a short period of time, we removed the large nest and properly disposed of it. Now the owner can safely continue with his renovations.

As we were treating this commercial property in Middletown, NJ we noticed some yellow jackets hovering around an area on the lawn. We took a closer look and discovered that the yellow jackets had an in-ground nest in this area!

Yellow jackets construct paper-like nests underground that may contain thousands of larvae and adult workers! Foraging ground-nesting yellow jacket workers could come in contact with people who hangout in their backyard or are just mowing their lawn and (since yellow jackets are territorial) attack the unsuspecting victims over and over again!

For treatment, we injected a residual dusting application directly into the burrow. This application neutralizes the yellow jackets almost immediately. A few moments later, we dug up the nest, disposed of it properly, and then filled in the burrow.

This homeowner in Brick, NJ was mowing his lawn one warm, sunny morning when all of a sudden, he was attacked and stung by several yellow jackets! Fortunately, he was a Home Protection Plan customer, so he stopped what he doing and called Cowleys for help.

When we arrived, we equipped our protective bee suits and began inspecting the area where the owner was attacked. Several moments into our inspection, we found a large yellow jackets nest in the bushes! They were expertly hidden and the owner, nor his family, had any idea they were there!

So we injected a residual aerosol application into the nest, waited a few moments, and then injected a residual dusting product. These treatments exterminate the yellow jackets quickly. A few moments later, we removed the nest & the branch it was attached to and disposed of them properly. 

We're returning to this business in Eatontown, NJ to check up on the mice activity in the basement. As we inspected our rodent bait stations, we did find some activity in a number of them. So we replenished the bait in each and every station throughout the basement, the main areas of the office, and around the exterior of the building. 

Once that was done, we stuffed each and every opening that the mice were and could be using around the building with chew-proof metal mesh. Next, we sealed them in place with a waterproof, premium adhesive. Finally, we scheduled several additional follow-up visits to replenish the bait stations until the mice are gone for good.
