Keeping the Groundhogs Out with Dig DefenseĀ® in Tinton Falls, NJ

A homeowner in Tinton Falls, NJ was having an issue with groundhogs harboring under her shed. Fortunately, at the time of our inspection, the groundhog had moved on and was no longer hiding under the shed. However, if nothing is done, the groundhog will return and continue to harbor under the shed and cause structural damage.

The best method to protect this shed is to remove all the debris surrounding it and install Dig Defense®. Dig Defense® is a below-ground fence system that is 15 inches deep and 4 feet across and protects structures against invasive nuisance wildlife and feral animals. 

Repairing the Damage from Woodpeckers in Fair Haven, NJ

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.

Large Yellow Jackets Nest Under the Attic Insulation in Fair Haven, NJ

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.

Stopping the Squirrels From Nesting Underneath the Solar Panels in Fair Haven, NJ

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!

Garbage Cans Causing an Ant Infestation in Spring Lake, NJ

This homeowner in Spring Lake, NJ had ants all over her kitchen counter, so she called our office and we were sent out to inspect and treat. When we inspected the interior, we found some ant activity on the kitchen counter, but nothing too large. It wasn't until we went outside and found ants trailing from her garbage cans into the kitchen. The homeowner immediately started to clean out hr garbage cans and move them away from her home.

In the meantime, we applied a gel bait to the ant trails on the kitchen counter and treated the baseboards, cracks, and crevices in the kitchen and the two adjacent rooms with a liquid non-repellent. Afterward, we went outside and applied a granular bait to the grassy areas and then treated the entire exterior with a liquid residual. The ants will bring any of these treatments back to their nest and share them throughout their colony.  A short while later, the ants are extreminated.
