Mosquitoes and Ticks Long Branch NJ

Mosquitoes and ticks, the worst parts of summer, both carry and transmit disease.

It’s no secret that mosquito population control is critical in summer. Mosquitoes breed in swampy areas and anywhere water collects. When they bite you, they can transmit West Nile Virus, Zika virus, and dengue fever, among others, all of which are dangerous life or death risks to humans.

Ticks (arachnids) will attach themselves to you to feast on your blood, transmitting dangerous diseases such as Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Have you not been in an area known for ticks? Have you located a tick on your body, on your child’s body or your pet? It’s very possible you have an infestation on your property.

Cockroaches Long Branch NJ

Your dependable cockroach exterminator in Long Branch NJ will craft a customized plan for removal as well as a plan to guard against future infestations.

The most common cockroaches in New Jersey include:

• German Cockroaches
• American Cockroaches
• Oriental Cockroaches
• Smoky Brown Cockroaches
• Woods Cockroaches
• Brown Banded Cockroaches

It’s true that even the cleanest of homes can have roach infestations, whereby roaches are attracted to grease, sugar or other foods. These things usually get trapped in hard to reach places that you’re not aware of, such as in drains, behind refrigerators and dishwashers, and in cracks and crevices within cupboards.

Molting regularly and discarding their skin, cockroaches’ skin particles become airborne and can trigger severe asthmatic reactions, usually in kids. They also spread disease such as E.coli throughout your home or business, which is a great reason to get rapid roach removal in Long Branch NJ.

We welcome you to call our trained roach exterminators in Long Branch NJ so they can visit your property and perform a comprehensive inspection.

Rodents Long Branch NJ

Need help with rodent control in Long Branch NJ? Don’t hesitate to call our qualified rat exterminators. Because of contamination of food by droppings, urine and hair, rodents cause costly damage to homes and business annually.

Rapid rodent control in Long Branch NJ is also critical. Rats and mice are destructive, especially their ability to chew through wires and cause electrical wire fires. Breeding is another problem, as they have been known to produce between 30 and 80 offspring in one year!

Here are three tips to keep them from entering your home:

• Practice good hygiene and limit the supply of food and water.
• Ensure your doors, windows, and screens are weather sealed with no cracks.
• Seal openings near the tops of structures, such as roof vents, eaves, roof-top AC units and overhangs.

Bed Bugs Long Branch NJ

Bed bugs are the most active right before dawn, piercing your skin with two hollow tubes. One will inject saliva and one will suck out your blood. You may notice blood stains on the sheets, or you may have itchy, red welts on your skin.

Take instant action when you suspect your home has bed bugs, as your best bet for eradication is to stop them in their tracks. A bed bug exterminator will effectively eradicate these parasites that feed off your blood and crave warm areas such as bedding.

While the peak feeding period for bed bugs in Long Branch NJ is one hour before sunrise, it’s unlikely you will feel their bites right away. Usually, the itching shows up hours later. Because it’s not easy to tell if you actually have bed bugs, you should rely on a specialist in bed bug removal in Long Branch NJ to make this call.
