Pest Control Services In New York
In the city it’s rats, roaches and bed bugs. Upstate it’s mice, carpenter ants and cluster flies once the weather turns.
Termite ControlSubterranean termites are active in downstate New York and the Hudson Valley. Older wood porches and basements get hit first.
Roach ExterminationGerman roaches travel through pipes and walls in apartment buildings. The whole line of units usually needs treatment.
Rodent ControlNorway rats in NYC, mice everywhere. Upstate farmhouses see a mouse rush every October.
Bed Bug TreatmentBed bugs are a constant in NYC apartments and hotels. Treat early, before they spread to the next unit.
Ant ControlCarpenter ants chew into damp wood in upstate homes. Pavement ants come up through cracks in the city.
Wasps & HornetsYellow jackets nest in walls and under siding. Late summer is when they sting the most.What To Know About Pests In New York
New York runs through all four seasons, from humid summers to cold, snowy winters, and pests work around every one of them. Rodents are the big story here. House mice and Norway rats are a year-round problem, and infestations spike in autumn as they head indoors for warmth.
Dense apartment buildings make it worse, since roaches and bed bugs spread fast through shared walls and floors. Add in summer mosquitoes breeding in basements and drains, plus carpenter ants and subterranean termites going after wood, and you’ve got pressure all year.
When Pests Are Most Active In New York
- Spring
- Termites swarm in May. Carpenter ants wake up, and ticks come out in the Hudson Valley and Long Island.
- Summer
- Mosquitoes in basements and backyards, wasps under eaves, and roaches at their busiest in hot buildings.
- Fall
- Mice and rats head indoors. Upstate homes get cluster flies and lady beetles on sunny walls.
- Winter
- Heated buildings keep roaches and bed bugs going. Rodents nest in walls and boiler rooms.

CockroachesCockroaches are a year-round issue in New York’s older buildings and apartment complexes. They travel through shared walls and plumbing, so one unit’s problem often becomes the whole building’s problem.Common Pests In New York

New York Pest Control FAQs
Can’t find your answer? Send us a message.
How much should pest control cost in New York?
Angi’s national range for a one-time general treatment is $300 to $550. In New York City, Angi puts a one-time visit at $450 to $825, and bed bug jobs in apartments start around $1,000.
Ask if the price covers follow-up visits. Bed bugs and roaches almost always need one.
Is my landlord responsible for pests in NYC?
Yes. NYC housing rules require landlords to keep apartments free of pests like roaches, mice and bed bugs, and Local Law 55 requires them to fix the causes too.
Report it in writing. If nothing happens, call 311 to file a complaint with HPD.
How do I stop roaches coming from my neighbor’s apartment?
Seal gaps around pipes under sinks and behind the stove. That’s how they move between units.
Use gel bait, not sprays. Sprays push roaches into the walls and into the next apartment.
What are the big flies in my upstate house in fall?
Probably cluster flies. They spend summer in fields and come into attics and walls for winter.
They’re harmless but annoying. Sealing gaps around windows and siding in late summer keeps most of them out.
How long does bed bug treatment take?
Heat treatment can clear a unit in one day. Chemical treatment usually takes two or three visits over a few weeks.
Wash and dry bedding and clothes on high heat before the tech arrives.
Are treatments safe in a small apartment?
Yes. Licensed techs use products made for indoor use. Keep kids and pets out of treated rooms until they dry.
In small spaces, gel baits and dusts in cracks are often used instead of sprays.
Can I get rid of mice myself?
You can trap a few. Seal holes with steel wool and caulk, especially around radiator pipes.
In a building, mice come from the walls and other units. If they keep coming back, the landlord or a pro needs to handle it.
