Commercial Insect Removal – New York City

There are countless insects that can invade your property or business year round. Many simply pass by but the ones that cause headaches are the ones that decided to make your location their new home. They can cause major damage and pose health risks or health code violations.

Insects generally nest outdoors; they favor dark, damp, cool places such as underground, under woodpiles, in trees or hollow logs. Most insects are social creatures and live in large groups, working together to make sure their colony survives. Many times insects wander in scouting for food and shelter and decide that your location is the new best place for their expanding colony.

Once inside, insects will feed on and contaminate any food that they can find, and will continue to do so until the source runs out or they are stopped. If you think that not having food in your property will solve the problem. Usually, it won’t because they can also eat the drywall, cardboard, wood, and live up to 45 days without food or water. If they decide they like your location, within a year they can create nests in spaces behind walls, cabinets, baseboards, support beams, boiler rooms and even underneath the floor.

Once it has gotten to that point, usually store bought solutions are not enough. They might take care of the few you see around your property but rest assured there are thousands nesting in the unseen places in your home. It has become a systemic problem and requires a professional, comprehensive solution.
