Pests we treat around Old Tappan
Pests in Old Tappan
What we deal with most around Old Tappan, NJ
Homes bordering fields and wooded areas usually contend with ticks, mosquitoes and wasps in season, and with mice, rats and squirrels seeking shelter once the weather turns. Carpenter ants live in damp or rotting wood, termites feed underground and then move into structural timber, and spiders and cockroaches take up residence in garages, basements and kitchens. Fleas are common wherever pets and yards overlap.
Winters are the colder side here, with about 109 nights a year at or below freezing and around 33 inches of snow. Cold and snow send rodents, stink bugs and boxelder bugs toward heated houses, often through small gaps around utilities. Summer brings about 19 days at 90 degrees or higher, enough to make ants and mosquitoes ramp up quickly once the weather warms.
Weather and pests
How Old Tappan's weather affects pest activity
These are 1991-2020 NOAA climate normals from a nearby weather station. Treat them as a guide and not a forecast. July is the warmest month, with average highs near 86 degrees, and January is the coldest, with average lows around 23 degrees.
Old Tappan sees about 51 inches of precipitation a year, plus about 33 inches of snow. December is the wettest month at roughly 4.7 inches, which is unusual, and it means the moisture peak comes in the cold season instead of summer. Snowmelt and winter rain can seep into foundations and crawl spaces, and heavy snow piled against walls gives rodents cover while they look for entry points.
Because the wet season is winter, an Old Tappan calendar looks a bit different. Spring is for checking what winter left behind, such as damp wood and cracked seals. Summer is for mosquitoes, ticks and wasps. In fall, close gaps before the first hard freeze. From December on, keep snow and firewood away from the walls and watch for signs of rodents in attics and garages.
How we fix it
Pest control services in Old Tappan
Ant treatment in Old Tappan
Ants are among the most common calls we get in Old Tappan, from sugar ants in kitchens to carpenter ants in damp or damaged wood. Activity climbs quickly once spring temperatures arrive. We find the trails and the nest, treat where the colony lives and follow up so they do not simply return.
Rodent control in Old Tappan
Mice and rats look for food, warmth and shelter, and Old Tappan buildings offer plenty of all three. With a long cold season, the pressure builds every fall. Our exclusion-based approach combines inspection, sealing entry points, trapping and monitoring, so you fix the reason rodents got in, not only the rodents you can see.
Termite control in Old Tappan
Termites are a quiet threat because damage often goes unnoticed for years. Regular moisture around foundations makes regular checks especially worthwhile. We inspect for mud tubes, damaged wood and moisture problems, then treat with a plan matched to how your Old Tappan home is built.
Cockroach control in Old Tappan
Cockroaches are hard to get rid of with store-bought sprays. We locate the hiding places, treat cracks, crevices and voids, and use monitoring so we know the treatment worked. It is a common request in Old Tappan apartments, restaurants and older homes alike.
Spider control in Old Tappan
Most spiders are harmless, but nobody wants webs around the door or a spider in the basement. We remove webs and egg sacs, treat the perimeter and reduce the insects that spiders feed on, which keeps them from coming back.
Mosquito control in Old Tappan
Old Tappan's wet weather makes mosquitoes a real nuisance. We treat resting areas in your yard, help you find and remove breeding sites and schedule visits through the warm season so you can use your yard again.
