Seasonal Pest Patterns
Spring/Summer: As temperatures rise and rainfall increases, mosquitoes, ants, and subterranean termites thrive. Ticks are highly active along wooded trails and lawns, while stinging insects build nests under eaves, playground equipment, and bleachers.
Fall/Winter: Cold and snowy conditions drive mice, rats, and cockroaches indoors in search of warmth. Stink bugs, lady beetles, and spiders often appear in attics and basements. Termites remain active wherever soil is moist, and melting snow may draw ants and millipedes to foundations.
Pest Species and Treatments
New Jersey is home to three disease-transmitting tick species: the black-legged (deer) tick, lone star tick, and American dog tick. These pests thrive in wooded and grassy areas like Saddle River County Park. Eastern subterranean termites are the leading wood-destroying insects in the region, posing serious risks to Ridgewood’s historic homes and wooden decks.
Excel’s Integrated Pest Management (IPM) method protects Ridgewood residents with:
- Detailed inspections of homes and businesses.
- Sealing of cracks, gaps, and other entry points.
- Moisture control to make environments less attractive to pests.
- Safe, low-toxicity treatments designed to eliminate pests without harming people, pets, or the environment.
Our proactive approach ensures Ridgewood homes, parkside properties, and local businesses remain pest-free year-round.
