Common Pests in Cedar Knolls and Morris County

Cedar Knolls is located in eastern Morris County completely within Hanover Township. Older homes, full-grown trees, good-sized lawns, and plenty of greenery is very typical suburban New Jersey. It’s also prime territory for just about every pest you can think of.

From March through September, the Cedar Knolls calls are mainly about carpenter ants, mosquitoes, ticks, carpenter bees, wasps and other stinging insects. Carpenter ants are very resistant to treatment, especially in homes with any moisture damage to the wood as they don’t eat it like the termites do – instead, they excavate it for a nesting site and the damage is cumulative. Mosquitoes have plenty of places to breed in standing water like birdbaths, clogged gutters, and low spots in yards, while ticks are very much a health concern in Morris County with all the Lyme disease in northern New Jersey.

As the cold hits, the rodents move in. They require a warm place and your garage, basement, or crawl space is the perfect environment. We also see an increase in calls about spiders in the fall as they follow the smaller insects into the warm space and now are found in the corners of ceilings or sitting in closets.

Termites don’t recognize seasons. They do their work all through the calendar and you don’t notice until it’s too late. If you’re purchasing or taking part in a property transaction in Cedar Knolls, have a termite inspection done before it’s finalized. It’s one of those things that won’t set you back a lot, and can save you a lot of trouble.
