Garrie Pest Control is a Full service pest control company which has been providing state-of-the-art pest control to the Tri-State area for over 40 years. We are one of a select group of companies authorized to provide the Sentricon* System which totally eliminates termite colonies using ounces of low toxicity pesticide.

"They are very nasty / rude and not professional on the phone. When we call, it takes almost a week for them to show up. We recently called and scheduled for a date and when they Didn’t show up we called them again and they said no one called to schedule anything and we’re very rude about it. I’ve been a client with them for just over 3 years. The first year was amazing service but the last 2 years is making me look into other options."

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."

Hi, my name is John, and I'm the founder of Trapper John Wildlife Management Services. I pride myself on old fashion values that were instilled by my mom. When I was a teenager of which I still can recall clearly today how important my first job was to me. It was more to me than just independence, but rather on pushing the limits of my job position. I didn't just want to be good at what I was doing, but rather the best at it. I then began understanding people, people’s needs and how vital customers are to the success of a brand. At the very same time I also began noticing how many companies lost the fundamentals of serving customers and from their Trapper John came to light. Since then (Trapper John) I have been featured in "The Brooklyn paper", The New York Times", on the popular "NHK" Japanese cable channel, reviews on "Yelp" and let’s not forget Angie's List. Through more than 20 years of experience in urban wildlife issues, we've proven that even the most difficult problems have a humane solution. Our clientele span a wide range of satisfied customers, including large organizations such as Verizon, Home Depot, and New York City governmental agencies, as well as numerous industrial, commercial, and residential consumers. We are "not" a pest control company that uses and/or sprays dangerous chemicals and poisons. We use a winning combination of modern high tech equipment and in depth wildlife experience. We only deal with "wildlife species". As a result, we provide you a solution that offers long term peace of mind. If you wish to contact us then, please only do so by via phone. Thank you

"Squirrels had gotten into our roof timbers and were scratching around making a racket. Every morning and every evening I could hear them above my bedroom and they were driving me crazy. I decided to contact Trapper John because of his Angie's List recommendations. He figured out where they had entered and put up a one way squirrel door so that when they came out to forage they would not be able to get back in. Sure enough, after a day or two, they all left. John then plugged up the hole. I would recommend his services to anyone who is having problems with invasive wildlife. He was very pleasant and informative about wildlife and other problems he noticed around the property."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Professional services cost between $75 and $150, depending on the size of the home and the severity of the infestation. Multiple treatments often increase costs.

Droppings from cockroaches, squirrels, mice, bats, and birds can resemble rat poop, making it easy to confuse one for another. Mouse droppings are smaller and more pointed, cockroach droppings resemble tiny black specks or ground pepper, and bat guano can look similar but usually crumbles into powder. Bird droppings sometimes have a similar shape, but often include white uric acid deposits. If in doubt, it’s best to consult a pest control professional for proper identification and removal.

If you want to get rid of rats fast and don’t mind the price, we suggest contacting pest control. They have the methods, experience and equipment to handle the job as quickly as possible, along with suggestions on how to make sure rats won’t pose any problem in the future. It’s the most complete response available to homeowners.

Clean your drains with either a bleach solution or a mixture of apple cider vinegar, baking soda, and boiling water. Repeat the process several times in one week to ensure you've killed the whole nest.

Ticks love to hide in long grass, mulch beds, leaf piles, and wooded areas, so minimizing these things in your yard can help stop them from making a home there. If you live in an area with lots of wildlife, it's also helpful to put up a fence so that deer and other animals don't bring ticks into your yard.
