"John came to our house promptly. He even called to say he'd be a half our late, something that's rarely done anymore! He quickly and efficiently got rid of the wasp nest. Though we hadn't seen any ants after I placed lots of ant traps around infested areas, I mentioned the problem. After hearing facts about ant infestation, we decided to have the house perimeter treated as well. John was friendly, knowledgeable, cooperative and informative."

Wildlife Solutions of Westchester performs a detailed inspection to determine the type of animal problems and the best approach for removal. Further recommendations for excluding the animal from entering the building are also provided. For example, dryer and exhaust vents provide perfect spots for birds to nest. Squirrels and bats will exploit gable vents which are not screened or which are poorly screened. Mice, rats and snakes will exploit gaps along a foundation or the corner channels of a brick, vinyl or wood sided home. Exclusion is the process of installing the necessary barrier to a structure or area keeping animals out. Call or click for your FREE estimate today!

"scanned our home- locating likely entry of a bat; noticed a few ants in our bedroom, but could not identify the source. a few weeks later a hole in outer walls was not only an entry point for the ants but yellowjackets"

Your home will be inspected & documented w/annotated phots provided to show what has made it in and how including but not limited to water in your basement, mice, bats, flying squirrels. In addition, This will help you understand what needs to be done to stop them from getting inside in the first place and then we can professionally seal it with non-chewable materials. We service lower Fairfield County, CT and parts of Westchester County, NY. Brian’s career in the pest control business began over 25 years ago. He spent three years in the southern United States learning from a world-renowned entomologist (among others) and helped start the Sentricon baiting program for termites with Dow Elanco. Brian advanced through the field to eventually run a major sales force and acquired a distinctive edge in the business. Through this experience, Brian realized he wanted to return to his home state of NY and create his own niche in the rodent control market. He developed a highly successful approach, rejecting the easy but environmentally unsound approach of poison – and instead relying on hard work, common sense, and the correct materials to prevent rodents from entering people’s homes in the first place. Fast forward a few years, and Brian began to realize there were additional niches in this area that needed to be more friendly towards the environment and the clients’ health. He therefore co-invented the Enviroboot® Dust Suppression System to help control the toxic silica dust that is produced when concrete is broken with a jackhammer. The result was a reduction in toxic dust greater than 97% according to the EPA and was awarded the 2006 US EPA CLEAN AIR EXCELLENCE AWARD. Brian M. Sweig has a special set of skills and licenses in NY and CT including Nuisance/Wildlife, Home Improvement, and Home Inspection (CT), Mold Assessment and looks forward to helping make your home a better place for you and your family.

"Brian came, inspected the house, gave us a detailed description of all the problem areas with pictures, and followed up with a quote to seal. We were apprehensive about the quote because it was less detailed than we were used to. BUT, after a conversation with Brian, we determined he knew what he was doing and decided to proceed. It's taken me a while to review him because I wanted to see how the sealing turned out. We're going on 2 years without bats and mice! Our whole process took two separate weeks, because they determined we had nursing bats while they were sealing and bats can't be removed with babies (not what I wanted to hear, but Brian follows the rules). Brian has been responsive to questions long after completing the job with us. He's a wealth of knowledge and I highly recommend his service!"

"Beware, tried to rip off my elderly parents. My parents entered into a MONTHLY contract with them for pest control. So they showed up at beginning of month to install some bait stations and said they would be back in a few weeks to check they were installed correctly. WE ARE STILL IN THE SAME MONTH. The tried to double charge the month of July to follow up on the initial installation. They kept saying "it's a monthly charge" and we told them WE HAD PAID FOR THIS MONTH... and then when we SHOWED THEM that we had already paid for July they changed to story to a "new fee".... There are other businesses that are not shady, use them and stay away from "knockout""

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.

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

Yes, many companies offer convenient options to accommodate service timing needs.

Whereas a honeybee can only sting you once, a yellow jacket can sting you multiple times because they don’t leave stingers in the skin. In the unfortunate case that you get stung by a yellow jacket, it’s important to react calmly and quickly. Immediately ice the affected area until the swelling subsides. You may also take an antihistamine if necessary. If you experience an allergic reaction to a yellow jacket sting or have been stung several times, seek medical care right away. 

Look for consistent buzzing sounds, visible hives, or increased bee activity around your property.

In certain cases, yes, the bees may go away on their own, but it’s a risk. Some bee types, such as bumblebees, create seasonal nests and then die out as their new queens seek homes elsewhere. But in most cases, you can’t count on the bees leaving naturally. It’s also not a great idea to leave openings in your walls any longer than you have to, which can attract other pests or cause moisture damage.

No, ground bees are not detrimental to the health of your lawn. In fact, the small holes created by ground bees can actually offer beneficial aeration which moisturizes and nourishes the ground. Additionally, ground bees are highly regarded as vital pollinators, meaning they help plants to reproduce. Unless you’re battling a severe infestation, leaving ground bees undisturbed can boost the health of your yard and the environment.
