Cranbury, NJ Exterminator & Pest Control

Spring and summer pests

Warm months bring pavement ants and odorous house ants trailing into kitchens and bathrooms, and carpenter ants gnaw at moisture-damaged wood around porches, window frames, and anywhere a gutter has been leaking. Carpenter bees puncture perfectly round holes through fascia boards and deck railings, giving themselves away to our ant control teams with small mounds of sawdust.

Mosquitoes emerge wherever water remains stagnant, which in Cranbury means agricultural drainage ditches, birdbaths, clogged gutters, and shady corners of the yard. Ticks hide in tall grass along property edges and wooded borders. And then there are wasps, yellow jackets, and hornets nesting under eaves, inside fence posts, and in sheds nobody has opened since last fall.

Ant control and mosquito control from our Cranbury team targets the source rather than just the ants on your counter or the mosquitoes on your deck. We target their colonies, breeding grounds, and access points.

Fall and winter pests

When temperatures fall, rodents head indoors. Mice can squeeze through openings smaller than a dime, which is a real problem when your house has a 50-year-old foundation with settling cracks and utility line penetrations that weren’t sealed correctly. Rats play the same game but go for larger openings like basement windows, garage door gaps, and damaged dryer vents.

Stink bugs cluster on warm walls in September and October searching for any crack that gets them inside. Wildlife such as squirrels, raccoons, and bats start treating attics and crawl spaces as their personal winter hide-aways.

Year-round threats

Certain pests are indifferent to the calendar. Subterranean termites chew through structural wood silently, and by the time you notice the damage, they have been at it for months or years. Bed bugs hitch rides into homes on luggage, second-hand furniture, and clothing at any time of year. Cockroaches repeatedly settle in basements, crawl spaces, and commercial kitchens wherever there is moisture and darkness.

Termite control from Excel uses perimeter monitoring stations combined with targeted treatments to collapse colonies before they reach structural elements. Our bed bug treatment process begins with a detailed inspection, followed by both chemical and heat-based methods to eliminate every life stage.
