Western Pest Services

Insects and Spiders

Ants
Ants can seem like just a nuisance but depending on the kind of ant you have, they can also be destructive. No matter what kind it is, Western can take care of them. Through sanitation strategies and ant treatment techniques, we will fight until the ants and all their friends are gone. Keeping it clean is a great way to keep ant problems away but they are also known to show up in teams anyway. Household ant control can be accomplished, though, with a professional. That’s Western.
Spiders
We will inspect the inside and the outside of your home to find out where the spiders are coming in and what spider pest control would be best.
Termites
Termites are silent destroyers â€“ they live interiorly in wood and soil and a termite infestation can cause thousands of dollars in damage before ever being detected. In the United States alone, Thatâ€™s why homeowners choose a Western Pest Services termite solution and termite treatments. With three methods of termite defense, you can rest assured that your largest investment is in safe hands. Weâ€™ll work with you to choose the best program for your home.
Bed Bugs
Bed bugs are notoriously hard to detect and can be challenging to remove. Theyâ€™re expert hitchhikers â€” sneaking into homes on luggage, clothing, upholstered furniture, and bed frames. Bed bugs are also excellent hiders, but their aggregate pheromone odors can’t hide from animals with sensitive noses, like dogs. The Western Canine Bed Bud detection teams have handlers and pups trained daily using live bed bug scent and are even trained and evaluated with more frequency than the national scent detection standard â€“ which is why our dogs are 95-98% effective at sniffing out just one bed bug. Even just one bed bug egg! They are a great way to be proactive about bed bugs. You can get more information about our dogs here. Whether you have proactive inspections done by our dogs or choose our traditional or heat treatments, Western will discreetly help you eliminate these pests and get back to a good nightâ€™s sleep.
Fleas
Fleas breed quickly, making them difficult to remove which is why professional flea treatment is necessary. We know flea biology and what it takes to treat for them successfully. Why? Fleas carry and transmit tapeworms and the bubonic plague. Their bite and blood feeding can result in flea allergy dermatitis, itching, and in some cases, anemia so a flea infestation can be serious. Fleas are known for jumping onto their host, where they will bite and feed on its blood. While fleas bite humans, they do not live on our bodies or in our hair. They prefer animal hosts to live on and can commonly be found on pets. No wonder bringing in a professional flea exterminator service is so important.
Cockroaches
A cockroach infested house is an unwelcome sight no matter what kind you have. You may not even care what the difference between an American roach and a German roach is. You just want to know about the roach pest control treatments. Western knows not only the difference so we know exactly how to treat for them, but we will not quit until the last one has been exterminated for your home. Even though these species tend to bring similar issues, their varying sizes and temperament make it more necessary than you may think it is to know which cockroach species you’re dealing with. Check out the types of cockroaches that are most common in Delaware, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut and then call us to deal with your cockroach infestation.
Silverfish
Even though silverfish are not harmful to humans or pets and they donâ€™t carry any diseases, we still know you don’t want them scurrying around your home. Our silverfish treatments and silverfish control strategies include products and treatments that will keep these pests to a minimum and help with future silverfish infestations. They feed on starchy materials and items that are high in protein. Silverfish are active at night and will cause damage to books, stored food, and clothing. Noticing holes in those types of things are silverfish signs of infestation. That’s when you’ll want silverfish extermination in your home and that’s when you should give us a call.
Bees
A WDIR focuses on the presence of termites, carpenter ants, carpenter bees, and wood-boring beetles as well as any damage they’ve caused. Some lending institutions require a Wood Destroying Insect Report (WDIR) before issuing a mortgage, so itâ€™s highly recommended you have one done for you. Itâ€™s also a piece of paper that provides peace of mind when youâ€™re looking to buy a home or building. The most important thing to consider when it comes to a WDIR is the experience of the person performing it and how quickly it will get done. Our technicians are trained by our Board Certified Entomologists to know the signs of wood destroying insects. They also know that closings wait for no one. Time is of the essence and we are sensitive to that. Learn more about WDIRs and why Western for them here.
Wasps
We will inspect spots where wasp nests are known to be built and note where the wasps may be depending on the species.
Ticks
We can help with tick control around your home. Our tick treatments will help control the tick population in your yard and our expert education will teach you how keep your pets and children away from them even when you are out and about on a hike. It’s important information because of the few kinds of ticks common in the Mid-Atlantic states, one of them just happens to be the one that transmits Lyme disease. In addition, there are others in our area that transmit Rocky Mountain spotted forever. No wonder tick pest control is so important. No matter the kind of tick you have around your home, you need it taken care of. Thatâ€™s where we come in.
Crickets
Cricket control in your home is only as good as the strategies employed. Our experts know what it takes to keep crickets out of your home. While crickets aren’t harmful, they are fast and can be intimidating to little ones and big ones alike. And the noises crickets make can make for some annoyed employees or sleepless nights at home. Let your conscious be your guide on this one and call us for cricket extermination.
Earwigs
Earwigs are harmless, even though they look like they could pinch. While they technically can, they most likely wouldnâ€™t. They canâ€™t spread disease and contrary to popular belief, wonâ€™t climb into your ear to eat your brain which is quite a relief! Just because they are just a nuisance, doesnâ€™t mean you want them in your home. Thatâ€™s where an earwig exterminator can come in to help.
Mosquitoes
We have several treatment methods to deal with the mosquitoes that can threaten your family and pets in the backyard. Mosquitoes leave irritating bites, but they are more than just a nuisance. In fact, mosquitoes are one of the worldâ€™s deadliest pests. They can spread dangerous diseases such as West Nile virus, Eastern Equine Encephalitis, Dengue fever, Malaria, Yellow fever, and pet heartworms. Donâ€™t let them ruin an outdoor special event or even just dinner on the deck with the family. Call us for mosquito control services including monthly treatments and even mosquito traps as an add-on for 24/7 mosquito control.
Flies
Flies can range from 1/8â€ to 5/8â€ long. Depending on the kind of fly you have, they could be hanging out in your drain, resting on windowsills, hovering around trash areas, or enjoying a sugary spill in the kitchen (or the kidâ€™s room). They can multiply quickly and since they are known to hang our areas with a lot of germs and bacteria, wherever they land they are probably transferring all those germs and bacteria to that spot. That can spread disease.
Centipedes
We know centipede control in your home is important. That’s why our strategies include ongoing plans to help all year long. Centipedes do and can bite. Centipede bites can cause severe pain, swelling, and redness at the site of the bite, with symptoms usually lasting less than 48 hours. Symptoms for those more sensitive to the venom’s effects may also include headache, chest pain, heart tremors, nausea, and vomiting. Victims from centipede bites are often gardeners but if you have a habit of walking in the basement barefoot, you could become a victim, too. Those are just a few reasons why our centipede treatments are important.
Millipedes
We can treat for millipedes in your home using many different kinds of strategies and treatments. While millipedes only occasionally damage seedlings by feeding on stems and leaves, they may enter homes in large numbers during periods of migration and become a considerable nuisance. They do not cause damage inside the home, although they may leave a stain if they are crushed. In addition, a millipede infestation makes heading down to the basement not so fun. Don’t worry. Our millipede extermination services can keep you safe from all those legs.
Beetles
We know the kind of damage beetles can do. Our proven beetle extermination strategies will help keep your home safe from them. From stored food pests to the carpet beetles that seem to be in everyone’s homes, these pests can do some damage if you have a full beetle infestation. Identification is difficult since different beetle species can look very similar, and they can appear tiny to the naked eye. Thatâ€™s why a trained eye is necessary for full identification. Our experts will identify the kind of beetle you have and from there will know the exact strategies to use to take care of beetles in your house.
Hornets
Hornets can be extremely aggressive and can really ruin an outdoor experience. If you have people with allergies around, treating for hornets is essential. But you want to make sure not to treat them in a way that could harm honeybees in any way. It’s best to bring in a professional to make sure to deal with hornets the right way while you stay safely inside. Our hornet treatments include individual treatments as well as control stations as added protection all summer long.
Yellowjackets
Yellow jackets can be extremely aggressive and if you inadvertently disrupt their nest, they will actually chase after you to sting you â€“Â multiple times!. If you have people with allergies around, treating for yellow jackets is essential. But you want to make sure not to treat them in a way that could harm honeybees in any way. It’s best to bring in a professional to make sure to deal with yellow jackets the right way while you stay safely inside. Our yellow jacket treatments include individual treatments as well as control stations as added protection all summer long.
Moths
We know what it takes to deal with moths in your home. No matter what kind of moth youâ€™re dealing with, then can be a pretty destructive pest â€“ which is why you need a moth exterminator. If you have moths in your closet, you know the holes in sweaters that can result. Did you know moths in your pantry can actually destroy food? You need a moth control strategy that takes care of them before they can do the damage. With Western, you can consider moths controlled.
Stink Bugs
We will customize a plan to help with stink bug control and effectively get rid of the stink bugs in your home.
Stinging Insects
Itâ€™s extremely important to know the actual species of the stinging insect pest you are dealing with. Thatâ€™s where our Board Certified Entomologists come in. Wasps aren’t generally aggressive but they will sting if they feel threatened â€“ and it doesn’t take much. Honeybees on the other hand are so important to the environment that we will not treat or remove them. We can bring in a professional beekeeper to take them off your hands if thereâ€™s an allergy in your household, though. Identification is key with stinging insects.
Mites
Despite its name, thereâ€™s nothing lucky about finding a clover mite. This dark reddish-brown pest, which is smaller than a pinhead, does not pose a threat to human health or cause major damage to homes or buildings, but it can be a severe nuisance when it invades structures. When smashed, adult clover mites leave behind a red stain, especially on items such as curtains, wallpaper, rugs, and other furniture that are lighter in color. If you see clover mites inside your home, you should call in an exterminator to perform the proper clover mite removal and clover mite treatments.
Aphids
Spotted lanternfly damage comes mostly from the honeydew they leave behind as they feed. This sweet, stick excretion not only can create sooty mold if left alone, but it will also attract the pests that enjoy eating sweet items like this including stinging pests, ants, and aphids. If you have a large spotted lanternfly infestation, the amount of honeydew they will excrete can make it look like rain coming off the leaves of the trees and cover the ground underneath.
Gnats
Because flies are easily welcomed into your house through small tears in screens and even opening and closing doors, fly prevention isn’t available but strategies for fly exterminator and fly removal are! There are more than 110,000 species of flies in the world. Fortunately, there are about four types of flies that are prominent in New Jersey, New York, Delaware, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut. Unfortunately, the fly control treatment should be customized depending on the kind of fly in your home. So, which one are you seeing? Learn more about each fly species to help you identify the pest you’re seeing. Flies are commonly referred to as gnats. So any fly control is gnat control. Any fly treatments are gnat treatments! But knowing what kind of fly you have is important to figure out which treatment will help reduce their population.
Pill Bugs
Pill bugs are harmless unless youâ€™re a young plant â€“ which they can really damage. They canâ€™t spread disease and canâ€™t bite. Just because they are just a nuisance doesnâ€™t mean you want them in your home, though. Pillbug treatments and pillbug removal should really be done by a professional. Thatâ€™s when a pill bug exterminator can come in handy.
Sow Bugs
Sowbugs are harmless unless youâ€™re a young plant â€“ which they can do damage to. They canâ€™t spread disease and canâ€™t bite. Just because they are just a nuisance doesnâ€™t mean you want them in your home, though. Sowbug removal and sowbug treatments should be done by a professional. Thatâ€™s when a sowbug exterminator can come in handy.
Boxelder Bugs
While boxelder bug bites are rare, they can pierce the skin with their mouthparts, leaving a red spot that can be mistaken for a mosquito bite. Unlike crushing the spotted lanternfly, crushing a boxelder bug is not recommended since they often let off an unpleasant odor in defense when handled or smashed. We know all about boxelder bugs and the best way to control them. Boxelder bug waste is an orange and red liquid that can stain fabrics so calling in a boxelder bug exterminator like Western is your best bet.

Animal Control

Bats
We will inspect your home to see where the bats are whether it be in your walls or in the attic, so we know where to focus.
Raccoons
Raccoons actually help keep your yard free of pests including small rodents and wasp larvae. They also have been known to tear holes in air ducts and even live within the HVAC system. That would be an expensive fix â€“ may as well spend way less on raccoon exclusion services instead.
Wildlife
The damage invading wildlife cause can be costly. We’ll help escort the little critters out and close up potential entryways and, if necessary, install discreet prevention measures to make sure they don’t come back in. Beyond damage prevention, our wildlife exclusion services ensure that animals are out in their natural habitat, doing what they do best for us â€“ helping the ecosystem.

Bird Control

Birds
We’ve been providing rodent, wildlife, bat, and bird exclusion services to our customers for years. That accumulated experience gives us the knowledge we need to make your home less inviting for bothersome pests. Long story short, we make it tough for them to get inside. Our exclusion services can save you big time in the long term by reducing cleanup costs associated with trapping, removing, and cleaning up critters. Whether we’re closing up potential entryways or installing discreet prevention measures, we have a solution for your home. We can even help you pay for it easier with the Western Payment Plan. Get details here. And don’t forget that cleanup from wildlife like this should be done by a professional as not to contaminate the air in your home. Let us help with our pest cleanup program.
Sparrows
There are three species of birds that are prominent to our area. Pigeons have become aggressive and not afraid of people at all â€“ especially when food is available. Anyone who has been to the Jersey shore knows that. You can recognize house sparrows by the series of single note chirps they emit. Starlings are known to compete with, displace, and kill many native birds and their young.
Starlings
Birds may seem like a non-issue, but what you don’t realize is they carry many different kinds of diseases, and their dropping are both a health hazard and a slip and fall risk. Because you don’t want to hurt the house sparrows, starlings, or pigeons that may be hanging around, Western has many humane bird control strategies to choose from to prevent birds. We know which tactic would work best? depending on the type of bird you have around your home. Learn more about each species that is most prominent in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Connecticut.
Pigeons

Rodent Control

Rodents
We will find not only the rodents but where they are getting in so we can focus our treatment methods.
Mice
Everybody knows that rats and mice are nasty, dirty creatures, but they also can chew threw electric wires, creating fire hazards. Through rodent extermination and exclusion work, we will fight until the rats and mice that are in your home are all gone. Mouse control and rat control in your home are better left to a professional rodent exterminator. Thatâ€™s Western.
Rats
Our rat control treatments and strategies deal with them on a biological level. Rats are difficult to treat for and if you see one, there are definitely more around. We know how to take care of the rats that are there and even help keep them out in the future. Besides the many diseases Norway rats can carry and transfer, if you have a rat infestation, their droppings and urine can cause allergic reactions and even trigger asthma. In addition, they can be aggressive when you approach their nest. Their front teeth never stop growing so they gnaw on cardboard, drywall, and electrical wires â€“ which they mistake for grass and roots. Besides being destructive, a rat infested house can be a fire hazard because of the chewed electrical wires. They will travel up to 100 feet from their nest so neighbors could be inadvertently feeding them and exacerbating the rat problem. We know all of this and can use our expert knowledge to take care of them.
Squirrels
All types of squirrels help with forest renewal when the nuts or seeds they forgot about sprout and grow. But if they make their way into your attic, they can chew electrical wires, damage structural wood, and defecate into insulation. Having squirrel exclusions installed can help.
Voles
These furry friends truly help with insect control. Without their voracious appetites, the rodent and insect populations would explode. But besides the obvious issue with skunks, rodents like woodchucks and voles can chew through electrical wires causing a fire risk. You don’t need those pests inside the home and the risk they bring with them. Exclusion work will help keep groundhogs, skunks, and other critters out from under sheds, decks, and porches.
