Arrow Exterminating has been serving Long Islanders and New Yorkers for more than sixty years—since Bernard Stegman founded the company in 1947. Now under the management of his daughters; Jackie Grabin and Debby Tappan, Arrow is one of the largest pest control companies in the New York metropolitan area. There are several things that have always set Arrow apart: • We’ve always been willing to take on problems others won’t, and to do whatever it takes to help our clients. • We are always accessible. When Bernard Stegman founded the company, he gave clients his home phone number. We try to be just as accessible today, and always give free phone consultations. • We inspect every property carefully before deciding on treatment. We won’t just come in and spray chemicals indiscriminately. • We have a fulltime, board-certified entomologist on staff to help us understand the way insects behave, to make our treatments as effective as possible. • Our staff receives extensive training, and many have been with us for several decades. We know the quality of our staff determines the quality of our company, and we’re very proud of the team we have. Nassau County Consumer Affairs license: #HI84714.

"Mr Martinez came over and answered all my questions and was very thorough. He kept me informed through the whole process. They got all the raccoons removed and I am very happy with their work. I would highly recommend them."

"I was not completely satisfied because they did not completely take care of the ant problem and I have not noticed much of a difference regarding the mice that they said we had. The person who did the estimate also did not communicate with the person who came out to do the work, so we got different messages from them."

When you choose Cowleys, you’ll have a local New Jersey pest control company with resources big enough to quickly get to your home or business, yet small enough for you to be a valued customer.

"Very bad investment. $1400 up front to trap foxes. Foxes were all over the yard each night. Scott set the same traps with the same bait and didn't catch foxes for two weeks. Unable to adapt and adjust despite nightly failure. This company is a big money grab with no real level of competence. Scott is just not able. "

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

You should never try to remove a bee's nest yourself because it can be extremely dangerous. The amount of bees that can live in a hive depends on the type of bee, but honey bees can have up to 80,000 bees living in a hive. People who are allergic to bees can have life-threatening reactions from a single sting. So, it's best to leave bee nest removal to the professionals who have the knowledge and equipment to do so safely.

If you’re dealing with a bee colony on your property, you might wonder if they’ll leave naturally over time. The answer depends on their circumstances. Bees often relocate if the hive becomes overcrowded, food is scarce, or they face a threat. With that said, if a hive’s location is safe, warm, and with plentiful food sources, they are unlikely to relocate on their own, and the hive may persist for many generations.

You might be tempted to call your local municipality to remove animals from your property, such as a groundhog burrowing in your yard or raccoons getting into your trash cans. However, they typically only remove domestic animals like dogs and cats from properties, or sick and injured wildlife that pose a public safety risk or health threat, such as a rabid animal. They typically do not capture or remove healthy wildlife.

Animal removal professionals have the tools, knowledge, and skills to trap and remove wild animals adequately and humanely. They also can relocate them correctly.

In many places, killing bees or destroying a hive is discouraged or regulated due to their crucial role as pollinators. Specific laws vary by region, and certain bee species are protected due to declining populations. Some states require permits or restrict who can remove or exterminate bee colonies. Always check local laws before attempting to manage or remove a beehive.

If you seal bees in a wall and don’t leave them any way to escape, they may make one of their own. Otherwise, they’ll die inside the wall, and that creates many additional problems. It takes a long time, and the bees will start rotting, which can make your home smell miserable. All the dead bees and any honeycombs they may have created will also attract a number of bugs or other pests to your home. That’s why we suggest removing the bees entirely, and not trying to seal them away.
