Overall

Cavanaugh's did what they said

Called them for a bee problem after going thru 3 cans of spray myself. I just couldn't get rid of bees myself as they must have gone deep inside my house. Cavanaugh's came out same day, gave quote and did the work. Bees were gone the next day. It was a little more expensive than I expected, but I didn't really shop around. They did honor 10% off coupon from yellow pages. Overall relieved bees are gone!

Residential Pest Control
Commercial Pest Control

We ensure that every facet of your company is safe from rodents, insects, and other pests. We offer services for all sorts of commercial buildings, including but not limited to...

Insects and Spiders

Ants
Household ants can find their way into any home, so you see them from time to time. However, when you see more than the occasional ant, it’s important to know exactly what type of household ant you’re dealing with. Ants differ significantly depending on the species, and if you have an infestation, you want to know exactly what species you’re dealing with.
Spiders
Ticks are arachnids, like spiders or mites. They have two body segments and eight legs. Ticks are generally quite small, measuring less than 3 mm, and can be identified by their brownish round bodies. Ticks also have pronounced mouths, which they use to cut through the skin and feed on the blood of their hosts.
Termites
Whether it’s the post office or the courthouse, a pest problem can be distracting and troublesome for any government employee. Mice behind the mail bins and termites in the courtroom walls can cause structural damage, and ant or beetle infestations may create an uncomfortable environment for workers and visitors alike.
Bed Bugs
Finding multiple mysterious bites on your body can be startling, and the very idea of a pest in your bed can make you uneasy. If you’ve noticed a few bites here and there, you may be wondering if you have an infestation of bed bugs in your home.
Fleas
If you own a pet, you know that keeping fleas out of your house is important for your pet’s health and comfort. However, even your best efforts sometimes cannot prevent you from needing fleas pest control. Cavanuagh’s Termite and Pest Services can help you eliminate fleas from your home in Flanders, NJ or a nearby city. Read the information below to figure out if fleas are your main pest problem.
Cockroaches
Cavanaugh’s Professional Termite and Pest Services has been servicing hotels since we opened our doors nearly 75 years ago. Our professionals know how important it is for you to keep a clean, safe hotel for your guests. Pests and critters do not mix well with areas of lodging and food. Don’t lose customers to an ant, cockroach or bed bug problem. Call us immediately to get the problem addressed as soon as possible.
Bees
Bumblebees and honeybees buzzing around your Freehold, NJ flower garden are a common sight in the summer time. The fuzzy, black-and-yellow insects collect nectar to bring back to their hives, feeding the colony while pollinating your plants. Bees are often more helpful than harmful, but some can damage your property or pose a danger to your children or pets.
Wasps
Wasps, on the other hand, have long, thin, pointed abdomens, and lack the hairs that bees use to gather pollen.
Ticks
Most people think of ticks as outdoor nuisances that only cause problems if a person has adventured out in the woods. Unfortunately, you can also run into ticks right in your own Freehold, NJ backyard. If you’ve found ticks on your body or on the body of someone else in your household, but you weren’t in an area known for ticks, you may have an infestation on your property.
Mosquitoes
Mosquitos leave annoying, itchy red bumps when they bite you, but they are more than a minor nuisance. Mosquitoes carry diseases between hosts, leading to outbreaks of malaria, West Nile Virus, Zika virus, and dengue fever, among others. Each of these diseases can prove fatal to humans who contract them, so mosquito population control is essential for preventing further infection.
Flies
It’s easy to confuse mosquitoes with another relative, the crane fly, as the insects have similar body shapes. However, mosquitoes rarely grow larger than three-fourths of an inch, while crane flies can measure over two inches long. Crane flies don’t bite, so they don’t transfer disease, and in fact eat mosquitoes, providing natural pest control.
Beetles
Hornets
Bees share many features with their cousin, the wasp. Because of their similar appearances, many people mistake honeybees for wasps or hornets. This is problematic because bees are passive insects that won’t attack unless they feel threatened, while wasps are often predators that may attack without provocation. Wasps also aren’t great pollinators, so they don’t offer the same benefits as bees.
Yellowjackets
If you have particularly aggressive insects on your property, you might have a problem with yellow jackets. Yellow jackets are a unique species of wasp that present a unique challenge to any homeowner who finds them on their property.
Stink Bugs
Stink bugs are aptly named for the scent glands on their abdomens that release a foul odor. But even more disturbing than the smell is the sheer amount of eggs the females can lay, leading to quick and total infestation in a manner of days and weeks. Between June and September, the female will deposit clusters of 25 eggs on the undersides of leaves, which hatch in just five days. One female can produce more than 400 eggs in her short life span.
Stinging Insects
Yellow stinging insects seem to come in all shapes and sizes in New Jersey. Initially, you might not care if the stinging insects in your backyard are bees, hornets, or yellow jackets. But some of these insects, especially aggressive wasps, are more annoying and dangerous than others.
Mites
Have you noticed tiny red bugs crawling on your windowsills or on the sunny side of your house? You may have an infestation of clover mites. Pest control is the most reliable way to rid your residence of these insects. Read on to learn how to identify them and when to bring Cavanaugh’s Termite and Pest Services to your house.
Boxelder Bugs

Bats
Physical Characteristics: There are 9 species of bats that are most frequently found in our area. Bats are the only mammal with webbed wings making them capable of true and sustained flight. Different species differ in size but in our area, they tend to average between 2-6” in length.
Moles
Diet: It is a common misconception that moles enter gardens to feed on plants and roots; moles feed primarily on grubs, earthworms and other insects found in the soil underground. Because they are unable to survive without eating for more than 12hrs, moles will generally consume between two and three times their body weight every 24 hours.
Raccoons
Physical Characteristics: Raccoons are mammals known for their dexterous front paws, facial mask and bushy tail. They can range from 18-36” in length and can weigh between 8 and 20 pounds. Raccoons are usually nocturnal, but can appear during the daytime in search for food.
Wildlife
Inspections: The first thing to do in wildlife control is a proper inspection. We will determine if groundhogs are causing damage to your property.
Opossums
Physical Characteristics: Opossums are the only marsupials found in North America. They are easily identified by their long tails, pointed faces with hairless ears and tails that aid them in climbing. Opossums are normally gray but extreme temperatures and diet can cause their coats to change from gray to red to brown. They grow to approximately the size of a large house cat, ranging from 26-28” in length and can weigh up to 15lbs.

Birds
Sparrows
Sparrows: Sparrows are generally small, plump, brown and grey birds with short tails and short powerful beaks and range from 4.5-7 inches and 0.47-1.5 oz in weight.
Starlings
Starlings: Starlings are a medium-sized bird ranging in color due to the iridescence of their plumage. their size can range from 6.5″-8″ in length and can weigh from 1.2-10oz.
Pigeons
Pigeons: Pigeons are a dull colored bird, usually gray with dark stripes on the winged section. Depending on species, pigeons can range between 5.9 to 29.5 in length and 0.066 to above 4.4 lb in weight.

Rodents
Businesses need to run at top efficiency to stay profitable. Distractions, including pests like insects and rodents need to be eliminated.
Mice
Rats
Here at Cavanaugh’s Professional Termite and Pest Services, we specialize in pest control as it pertains to mice, rats and other rodents. These pests can invade both residential and commercial properties, with the most common being the House Mouse and the Deer Mouse. The White-Footed Mouse, the Black Rat and the Norway Rat are all native to New Jersey. They gain access to your home or business in the winter, make a nest to get warm, and start breeding.
Squirrels
Physical Characteristics: Gray squirrels are mostly gray in color with a brown undertone, white bellies and have a large bushy tail. They are the most commonly encountered wildlife in our area because they are very active during the day. Squirrels range between 15-19” in length from nose to end of their tail and weigh up to 15oz.
Gophers
Lawn and tree management. We remove burrowers like moles, gophers, and insects while also fertilizing plants and aerating lawns.
Chipmunks
Inspections: The first thing to do in wildlife control is a proper inspection. We will determine if skunks are the problem. Skunks are famous for being smelled long before ever being seen. Evidence of a skunk are faint “skunky” odors, holes in the soil on your property, rolled back sod, barking animals and the absence of smaller rodents such as squirrels and chipmunks.
