We're in the prime time of year for squirrels finding their way into attics & crawlspaces as they look for a warm place to shelter through the winter months.

Keep your ears open for unusual scratching noises in the ceiling or walls of your home - and call us promptly if you do!

Left unchecked, a squirrel infestation can wreck havoc by destroying insulation, and can even become a dangerous situation by damaging wiring and creating biological hazards. 😲🐿

Pest infestations can happen in any building, not just homes or restaurants. 🪳

Warm weather means that pests will continue to bug us into fall season - particularly ants, mosquitos, and ticks here in NJ. 🕷
