We are a locally owned and operated company with over 12 + years of industry experience. We value honesty and integrity in all aspects of our business. We specialize in Bed Bug Exterminating and a variety of related exterminating projects. We pride ourselves on the quality of our work as well as our commitment to outstanding results. We look forward to building lasting relationships with our clients and guarantee your satisfaction!

"After a week of disturbed sleep worrying about a bed bug situation, I contacted Ace Bed Bug. I had been in the apt of a good friend who unknowingly had bed bugs and I got bitten! I was horrified and rushed home only to worry that I brought them back with me. I called Ace and Luis immediately picked up the phone and was at my house by 8 AM that day after hearing my anxious voice. Luis is wonderful...a very reassuring and professional individual who listened carefully and empathetically to my hyper anxious concerns. He inspected all my furniture and asked where else I would like him to look. Thankfully, he did not find any bedbugs, but gave me great advice about how to spot and avoid them showing me an illustration of what the life cycle of a bed bug looks like and where to find them. I never realized how much an exterminator needs to be a therapist in these situations ....LOL. I highly recommend Luis for his skilled experience, kindness , promptness and patience. Thank You Luis!

"'m sorry, I didn't answer earlier; I did not see this email until last Thursday, although I was looking for it. When I first spoke to he told me he can only come tomorrow at 7:30 in the morning to see the job and to discuss what he will do and give me a contract. I was reluctant to have him come this early beacause my son and husband would not be available but i agreed because I figured he was just coming to look. He came early and looked only in one place instead of looking around the whole house and told me that he is sure that I have a raccoon problem because of the opening in the eaves. He told me he wants to cover the hole with chicken wire and a one-way door and the raccoons will leave through the exit. I tried disputing this idea, but before we drafted a contract he went to work patching up the hole. It probably took around 20 minutes and he claimed he was finished. I was all alone, early in the morning for me, when i couldn't think straight, so I just wanted to finish up with him. I said the job was guaranteed for a full year so I asked him hw much I owed him and I paid him $800 cash. And he gave me a receipt marked "raccoon" and charged me the full price for trapping a raccoon, which he never did. When my son, who lives with me appeared, he was furious. He said the problem stemmed from a different hole, and the hole that he patched up was originally a small hole which he may have enlarged to convince me that I have racoons. I undersood that ithe same treatment for racoons would also solve the sqirrel problem. My son called him and lost his temper while confronting him with accusations that he was scamming us. He got insulted and hug up on him. The next day I called him and told him there was another hole to tackle, so he agreed to come the next day. He did come, and I showed him where the hole is. He saw that it would be quite difficult to access it. In the meantime, my son came out and tried to talk to him. The conversation got rowdy, he got offended, and, in short, refused to deal with us and ran away. Nothing was accomplished and he refused to set up some traps, which he could have easily done inside my house because I have trap doors to the eaves. We have done it in the past and were successful. That took place last week, and since then, I am at my wits' end. We have several squirrels running around in the attic, and I cannot call a roofer until I get rid of them. They sound like they are damaging the house and we are getting very nervous. I would prefer to discuss this on the phone. My phone number is 929-302-1637. My home no is 718-871-2585."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Bed bugs typically will not go away on their own. If there are no humans or animals around, they will need to leave to find a host for feeding. But otherwise, bed bugs can live for several months to a year, and the adult females can lay hundreds more eggs in their lifetime. An infestation is only likely to get worse without hiring an exterminator.

To clean a trash can with maggots, combine chlorine bleach and hot water in a 1-to-1 ratio and pour about half a gallon of the solution into the bottom of your garbage can. Just make sure there aren’t holes in the can before doing so. Close the lid, and let the fumes go to work to kill the maggots. Rinse the can with a hose outside. Consider finishing up with a bleach disinfectant and a scrub brush before letting the can dry completely. You can also consider hiring an exterminator near you for a quick, easy solution to maggots in your garbage cans.

Pantry bugs are rarely able to get into sealed packages, but they may try. If you find pests on or around a sealed food item, check inside to make sure the food is still clean. Not sure whether a package is contaminated? Spread the contents onto a cookie sheet and use a flashlight to look for pests.

Moles live underground and feed on insects. They dig and move through tunnels, usually in meadows or forests but sometimes in lawns and gardens. They are about 6 inches long with large claws, tiny eyes, and hidden ears. 

Shrews do not dig their own tunnels but will use other animals’ tunnels, and are about 3 to 4 inches long. They look similar to mice and feed on insects.

Voles are similar in size to moles but have large eyes and small but visible ears. Rather than eating insects, voles are herbivores that prefer seeds, grasses, and plant roots.

To kill fruit flies outdoors, you'll want to make a homemade insecticide or find a plant-safe, nontoxic product. Fill a garden sprayer with your chosen solution and apply it on your plants and around the base of your home's exterior. Take care to limit your exposure to insecticides, as they can irritate skin and eyes. Always rinse garden fruits and vegetables before eating them.
