Before & After Photos

One day, this homeowner in Fair Haven, NJ was cleaning out his attic when all of a sudden, he was attacked by a number of hornets! He quickly left the attic and took a look on the outside of his home. That's when he discovered a soccer-ball sized hornets nest about 50 feet up at the peak of his home. He called Cowleys for help and we were sent out. 

Once we arrived and investigated the nest, we identified them as bald-faced hornets. Bald-faced hornets are social stinging insects that have white markings on their face. They're EXTREMELY aggressive and territorial. So aggressive that if anyone or anything comes within close proximity of their nest, they will attack! What makes them even scarier is they can actually sense vibrations in the air (when you mow your lawn) and remember their invader's face! Using our extendable pole, we treated the bald-faced hornet nest with a knockdown aerosol application.

A short while later, we injected a knockdown dusting application into the nest. Both of these treatments quickly exterminate the bald-faced hornets. After some time had passed, we removed the nest, disposed of it, and applied a liquid non-repellant residual to the area. As we removed the nest we noticed a small gap around a utility wire. This was how the hornets were getting into the attic! We sealed it up with a premium, waterproof adhesive. The residual that we applied will neutralize any bald-faced hornets that return to this area and prevent them, and any other stinging insect, from building a new nest.

A new customer in Little Silver, NJ contacted our Little Rascals Nuisance Wildlife Division after seeing a raccoon rip apart his gable vent and enter his home. Over time, the gable vents get weathered and dry rotted. This makes it easier for raccoons as well as squirrels to break into the home. 

After we safely removed and relocated the raccoons to a new, humane environment, we disinfected the attic area and removed the old, broken gable vent. We did offer to replace the gable vent, but the homeowner mentioned that he will fix it on his own at a later date. As a temporary solution, we installed Pest-Blok over the gable vent. Pest-Blok doesn't restrict the airflow to the attic, undergoes a silicone-protected polyester coating process that makes it last longer, and guards the home against raccoons, squirrels, pests, birds, and all other nuisance wildlife.

A property manager of an apartment complex in Little Silver, NJ, called Little Rascals for assistance after his maintenance team found several squirrels in one of his tenants' attic. When we arrived, we started thoroughly inspecting the exterior of the building and noticed squirrel hair near the gutters. We took a closer look and determined that the squirrels were entering the unit via the builders gap. A builders gap is the gap between the fascia board, where the gutter is hung, and the roof decking. It's caused when roof decking is stopped too short and isn't flush with the fascia. The gap is meant to help with airflow throughout the attic, but also presents an opportunity for squirrels, as well as raccoons, birds, and bats, to infest the attic.

There was one area of the fascia that was chewed out by squirrels, so we installed a one-way device over it, temporarily enclosed the area with hardware cloth, and set up several baited devices nearby. The one-way will allow the squirrels to safely leave the attic but prevent them from getting back in. A short while later, we successfully retrieved all the squirrels and relocated them to a new, humane environment.

To prevent any future infestations from squirrels, or any other nuisance wildlife, from the building we installed Pest-Blok over the builders gap. Pest-Blok doesn't restrict airflow, undergoes a silicone-protected polyester coating process that makes it last longer, and guards the home against squirrels, pests, birds, and all other nuisance wildlife.

This property manager of a condo association in Tinton Falls, NJ called our office after her maintenance team found an active hornets' nest on the window of a vacant unit. Once we arrived a took a closer look at the nest, after equipping our protective bee suits, we identified them as bald-faced hornets.

Bald-faced hornets are social stinging insects that are a close relative to yellow jackets. The surface of their upper midsection almost looks triangular from the side, and they have white markings on their face. They are EXTREMELY aggressive and will not hesitate to sting anything that invades their space. What makes them even scarier is they have smooth stingers, which means they can sting over and over again, can actually sense vibrations in the air, and remember their invader's face!

We treated the nest with a knockdown aerosol and a knockdown liquid application. Both products exterminate the bald-faced hornets almost immediately. A short while later, we removed the nest, properly disposed of it, and cleaned the area.

After spotting a squirrel coming out of his property, this customer in Tinton Falls, NJ immediately called Little Rascals for help and we were sent out. As soon as we inspected the home, we immediately spotted their access point - a chewed out opening in the soffit! So we installed a one-way device over the access point, temporarily enclosed the area off with hardware cloth, and then set-up several baited devices nearby.

A one-way device allows the squirrels to safely leave an area but prevent them from getting back in. Not long after setting up our devices we safely retrieved all of the squirrels and took them to a new humane location. After that we then installed Pest-Blok over the damaged area of the soffit. Pest-Blok is a sturdy material that undergoes a silicone-protected polyester coating process, which makes it last longer. Additionally, it doesn't restrict the airflow to the attic & guards the home against squirrels, birds, and other nuisance wildlife.
