Do I Need Pest Control?
Being able to recognize the signs of an infestation is incredibly important because many pests are very good at hiding. In Newark, we often see pests taking residence for months—or even years—before homeowners realize there’s a problem. Fortunately, there are clear warning signs you can watch for.
You should call our Newark pest control team if you notice:
-
Droppings: Tiny pellets or stains in crawlspaces, basements, behind appliances, pantries, or cabinets are strong indicators of infestation.
-
Odd pet behavior: Your pet may sense pests before you do—if they show unusual alertness or agitation near walls or floors, bugs or rodents might be around.
-
Property damage: Chewed wires, holes in drywall or furniture, stubborn grease marks, or shredded plant matter could all be the work of insects or rodents.
-
Nests: Pests such as rodents often build nests from paper, fabric scraps, leaves, or grass in attics, voids, or behind walls.
Are Pests Harmful?
Not only do pests make people uncomfortable, but they can also be incredibly harmful to both your health and your property—especially in densely populated urban areas like Newark, NJ. Many pests are not just a nuisance; they are known carriers of dangerous diseases and can cause extensive structural damage. For instance, termites alone are responsible for billions of dollars in property damage each year. Similarly, rats are notorious for chewing on wires and insulation, creating fire hazards and damaging vital systems within homes and businesses.
In addition to creating property damage, a handful of pests are known to carry and transmit diseases, viruses, and bacteria to humans. These include:
-
Mosquitoes: Mosquitoes can spread the West Nile virus, Zika virus, dengue, malaria, and more.
-
Rodents: Rodents can transmit tularemia, hantavirus, salmonella, and more.
-
Ticks: Ticks are most commonly known to spread Lyme disease, but they can also spread babesiosis, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, ehrlichiosis, and more.
-
Fleas: Fleas transmit the bubonic plague, murine typhus, tularemia, and more.
