Stopping Future Flying Squirrel Infestations in Gladstone, NJ

Flying squirrels had made their way into this home in Gladstone, NJ and were making a mess in the customer's attic. After a thorough inspection of the home, we determined that the flying squirrels were squeezing through the eave of the home. We setup a one-way device over the entrance point, temporarily enclosed the area with hardware cloth, and installed several baited devices. The one-way device is going to allow the flying squirrels to leave the area safely but prevent them from getting back in. After a short period of time, we successfully retrieved all of the flying squirrels and took them to a safer and more humane environment.

We then disinfected the attic and, to prevent any future wildlife intrusions, we installed sturdy, metal flashing over the access point.

Keeping the Mice Out of the Exhaust Vents in Gladstone, NJ

We're returning to this property in Gladstone, NJ to follow up on the mice activity. Previously, we installed several rodent bait stations inside and outside of the home and we're going to replenish all of the stations that have activity in them.

The mice were able to infest the home by utilizing an old exhaust vent. So to prevent that from continuing, we installed a DryerWallVent® over that exhaust vent. This material is made out of heavy-duty galvanized steel and its large opening and angled damper provide maximum airflow efficiency for safe venting. It's sturdy integrated magnets keep the damper closed when not in use which prevents all rodents and nuisance wildlife from getting back in the area!

Once we finish with that, we're going to properly exclude any and all gaps around the home that the mice can use to infest the property.

Stopping Nuisance Birds from Roosting on the Roof in Montgomery, NJ

This homeowner in Montgomery, NJ had enough of pigeons, starlings, and other nuisance birds defecating all over his roof, so he called Bird Solutions by Cowleys for help and we were sent out. Bird droppings are not only hazardous to your health, but they also eat away almost any substrate, particularly tar-based roofing material. A constant accumulation of pigeon droppings can cut the life expectancy of a roof in half.

In order to stop all nuisance birds from roosting on the roof, we installed Shock track. Shock track is a solar-powered, low-profile ledge deterrent system that is effective against all species of nuisance birds and utilizes the principle of fear and flight. The unique electrically charged tracks impart a mild electrical shock when birds land on them. The shock will not harm the nuisance birds but will condition them to avoid the area. The shock track gets affixed to roof, with no screws, and is connected to a solar-powered charger.

We also installed an Eagle Eye bird deterrent onto the roof and secured it in place. The light spectrum reflected back by the Eagle Eye disorient birds in flight by limiting their vision significantly. This causes the bird to deviate in flight and fly to another destination.

Homeowner Attacked by Yellow Jackets While Cleaning in Montgomery, NJ

As this customer in Montgomery, NJ was cleaning off his back porch he got attacked by yellow jackets! Luckily he wasn't allergic to them. Since he is a Home Protection Plan customer, he called us up to come out and get rid of these territorial pests.

The first thing we did was inspect the back porch to find out exactly where the yellow jackets were coming from. Minutes into our investigation, we found it! The yellow jackets were emerging from a small opening underneath the deck where the wood meets the siding. We showed the owner and he mentioned that he will close off that opening on his own once we exterminate the yellow jackets.

So we injected a knockdown aerosol product directly into that opening. Shortly after, we then applied a knockdown dusting application. These treatments will quickly eliminate the yellow jackets. Some time later, we removed the nest, disposed of it, and applied a liquid residual to the area. This treatment is going to eliminate any yellow jackets that return to this opening and prevent them from building another nest.

Mice Are Feasting on Our Bait Stations in Lawrence Township, NJ

We returned to this commercial property in Lawrence Township, NJ to check on the mice activity. On our first visit, we had installed several rodent bait stations around the exterior and throughout the interior of the building. We're back to see if there was any activity and we're happy to report, there was! The mice had devoured the bait in several of our bait stations. One even had a mice nest inside of it! 

This tells us what areas have the most rodent activity and helps us determine what areas need the most attention. So we're going to replenish the bait in all the bait stations and seal up any and all potential openings that the mice are and may be using to infest the interior of the building. Lastly, we scheduled additional follow up visits to monitor the activity.
