Partnering with a licensed flea control company gives you the best chance of eliminating them completely. However, preparing your home beforehand plays a major role in ensuring the success of your treatment. Completing a few steps before and after your service can help maximize results and prevent reinfestation. Let’s look into what to do before your scheduled flea treatment, as well as what to expect once it’s finished. Things to Do Before Your Flea Treatment Vacuum all areas thoroughly: Focus on the spots where your pets rest, sleep, or spend most of their time. Be sure to vacuum upholstered furniture, including under and between cushions. Wash or replace pet bedding: Launder all pet bedding and soft materials that may be infested. If the infestation is severe, it’s often best to throw away heavily infested items. Dispose of the vacuum bag or canister contents properly: After vacuuming, immediately seal the debris in a plastic bag and discard it in an outdoor garbage bin. This prevents surviving fleas or eggs from hatching and re-entering your home. Clear clutter and move obstacles: Remove boxes, storage bins, or other objects that could block access to baseboards or floors. Clear access allows the pest control technician to treat all necessary areas effectively. Plan to vacate your home during treatment: Everyone, including pets and birds, should leave the home during treatment. Fish tanks can remain if they are tightly covered... --- - Published: 2025-10-28 - Modified: 2025-10-28 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/bees-wasps-exterminators/threats-from-carpenter-bees/ When large bees hover near your porch or wooden trim in Long Island, they are likely carpenter bees. These bees are most active in spring and are often spotted around decks, eaves, and railings. While they live alone and rarely show aggression, their presence is easy to notice. Even though males cannot sting and females only do so when threatened, their wood-boring behavior can cause lasting damage and create openings for future infestations. When it comes to carpenter bees, Arrow Exterminating knows what to do. Our team identifies their presence, removes them, and provides lasting protection for your property. The Real Impact of Carpenter Bee DamageWhen carpenter bees repeatedly bore into your home’s wood year after year, the damage can become lasting. Small entry holes can soon turn into major structural problems. Here’s what their activity can lead to:Visible Wood Damage: The tunnels carved by carpenter bees often appear as short dashes, dots, or shallow trenches on wood surfaces. Unlike termites, these bees don’t stay hidden and frequently leave their entry points exposed. Compromised Support Beams: Carpenter bees boring into support beams gradually weaken the wood’s strength and stability. If ignored, this can lead to warping, bending, or even structural collapse. Fortunately, warning signs usually appear before the damage becomes severe. Distinct Entry Holes: One of the clearest signs of carpenter bee activity is perfectly round holes about the size of a nickel. These openings are often found in rafters, under decks, or other wooden areas where the bees begin... --- - Published: 2025-10-22 - Modified: 2025-11-03 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/rodent-exterminators/how-do-rats-get-into-your-attic/ Below, you'll find the quick answer.

It’s not just your imagination. Many pests become more active indoors during the fall, seeking warmth and shelter as outdoor temperatures drop and food sources become scarce. Homes provide a perfect refuge, with consistent warmth and plenty of nooks and crannies for insects to hide. Some seasonal pests will migrate south or burrow into the ground to survive winter, but others move right inside with you. This survival strategy, called overwintering, allows them to wait out the cold months and reappear in spring. Watching for early warning signs can help you prevent a full-blown infestation later. Our team at Arrow Exterminating offers professional pest prevention and removal services to keep your home pest-free all winter long. By acting early, you can protect your living spaces and enjoy a comfortable, pest-free season. Watch Out for These Fall Indoor Pests No one enjoys seeing bugs crawling across surfaces or hiding in dark corners. Yet the hidden pests often create the most problems, damaging your home as they go. These fall invaders are the ones most likely to seek shelter indoors: Asian Lady Beetles That small bug crawling along your wall might look like a harmless ladybug, but it could actually be an Asian lady beetle. These beetles are slightly larger than typical ladybugs, often orange or tan, and may not have any spots at all. If you see one, there’s a good chance more are nearby, as they tend... --- - Published: 2025-10-20 - Modified: 2025-10-29 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/rat-intelligence-and-behavior/ Rats have roamed the earth for millions of years, evolving into one of nature’s most adaptable survivors. Originally from Asia and Australia, they’ve spread to nearly every corner of the world. In Long Island, they often take shelter near trash bins, food pantries, and dark, hidden areas that provide warmth and a steady food source. Their intelligence and persistence make them remarkably resilient but also troublesome pests. Droppings, gnaw marks, and shredded nesting material are clear signs of their presence. Left unchecked, their populations and damage can escalate quickly. That’s why Arrow Exterminating offers expert rat control. Their skilled team uses proven strategies to remove infestations and restore peace of mind to homes and businesses. Rat Intelligence and Behavior Explained Intelligent, resourceful, and quick to learn, rats have long fascinated scientists studying behavior and problem-solving. Their strong memory and adaptability make them exceptional survivors in both wild and urban environments. However, when these mostly nocturnal rodents begin appearing during daylight, it’s often a sign that an infestation has grown beyond control. Rats are not just clever; they’re also deeply social animals. Communication within their colonies happens through ultrasonic sounds, pheromones, and body language, allowing them to coordinate movement and maintain harmony. These tight-knit communities, called a “mischief,” depend on cooperation. Grooming each other helps build trust and strengthen their social structure, ensuring the group’s continued success. The Eating Habits of Rats Rats can thrive on almost any type of food and quickly adapt their diets to local conditions. Though they... --- - Published: 2025-10-17 - Modified: 2025-10-17 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/why-do-we-see-more-spiders-in-fall/ Key Takeaways: It seems like there are more spiders, but there aren’t. There are actually fewer spiders because many die off when the weather cools down and food becomes more scarce. Even though there are fewer spiders in the fall, you are more likely to see them for a few reasons. Many spiders come inside in the fall, seeking warmer shelter, and you spend more time inside during this time, making it more likely that you see one. Spiders can get into your home through tiny cracks and gaps in your home’s exterior. If it feels like you always see more spiders in the fall, it’s not a coincidence – there is actually a reason for it. In the fall, temperatures start to drop and daylight hours shorten, and while these seem like small changes, they’re actually quite massive to spiders. Due to the cold and less available food, many spiders die off, so there are actually fewer spiders in the fall. So, why does it seem like there are more spiders in the fall? These changes set off a chain reaction that forces spiders to alter their habits, which served them well throughout the spring and summer. Are Spiders More Active in Fall? On average, spiders’ activity level is about the same, but they’re more noticeable when they're active in the fall. Here are a few reasons why: Spiders are young and small in the spring, so even while they’re active, they’re much harder to notice. In the summer,... --- - Published: 2025-09-17 - Modified: 2025-09-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/raccoon-dangers-to-be-aware-of/ Are Raccoons Dangerous? Yes, raccoons can be dangerous for many different reasons, such as the diseases they carry and the risk of injury to your pets. Though they look cute and curious, be aware of the dangers these nocturnal creatures can pose. Raccoons are commonly encountered in urban and suburban areas. Understanding raccoon behaviors and the risks they pose can help ensure the safety of both humans and pets. Raccoon Dangers to Be Aware Of Here are a few known risks that you should be aware of: Raccoons can carry rabies. Raccoons are a primary carrier of rabies, a viral disease that can be transmitted to humans and animals through bites or scratches. It's important to be careful and steer clear of raccoons to reduce the chance of rabies exposure. Raccoons can exhibit aggressive behavior. Raccoons can act aggressively in some situations. This often happens when they feel threatened or trapped. A cornered raccoon might attack to defend itself. This can be dangerous, especially if a mother is protecting her young. Raccoons can cause property damage. Raccoons are notorious for their ability to cause property damage. They can tear through roofs, insulation, and siding in search of food or shelter. Raccoons frequently nest in attics, chimneys, and crawl spaces. This can result in structural damage and pose fire hazards. Raccoons love trash raids. Raccoons are scavengers. They often dig through trash cans for food. This not only creates a mess but also poses a threat to public health by spreading... --- - Published: 2025-09-04 - Modified: 2025-09-04 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/pest-prevention-for-homes-before-and-after-floods/ Flooding is a frequent consequence of the rainy season, and its impact goes beyond just water damage. Rising waters force pests like rats, cockroaches, mosquitoes, and flies into homes, where they can spread dangerous diseases. Inside, these pests reproduce quickly in hidden areas. With their natural habitats disrupted, pests move toward humans in search of food and shelter. This can lead to contaminated surfaces, insect bites, and rapidly spreading bacteria, putting your family’s health at risk. Discover practical steps to protect your home from pests after a flood. Why Do Floods Cause Pest Infestations? Once floodwaters recede, the remaining environment becomes perfect for pests. Stagnant water and decaying debris provide food and shelter, while high humidity speeds up their reproduction. Without intervention, infestations can grow quickly, but proactive pest control can prevent this. Displaced from their natural habitats, pests find their way into homes through cracks in walls, damaged foundations, and broken vents. Overflowing sewers can introduce even more pests and disease. Basements often stay damp long after the flood, making them prime hiding spots that require careful attention. What Flood-Related Pests Should You Watch For? Rising waters force pests from their homes, pushing them toward human dwellings. The pests most commonly found after a flood include: Rats Rising floodwaters force rats from their underground burrows in search of food and safe shelter. These clever rodents can squeeze through openings as tiny as a coin, allowing them to enter homes with ease. Their adaptability makes them especially dangerous after floods.... --- - Published: 2025-08-07 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/a-homeowners-guide-to-total-pest-protection/ When you see a few ants in the kitchen, your first thought is probably, "Oh boy, another thing to deal with. " The truth is, pests are a real headache for any homeowner. They find their way inside through all sorts of little cracks and gaps, and once they're in, they can cause all sorts of problems and just make you feel unsettled.

That’s why we offer other home services like attic insulation, gutter protection, and wildlife exclusion. When you put all these pieces together, you get a defense for your home that actually works. A lot of the do-it-yourself traps and sprays are just temporary patches; they don't fix the real weak points in your house that let the critters in to begin with. Our Home Services for Long-Term Protection Look, if you are just running around trying to deal with pests after you see them, you are always going to be playing catch-up. It can feel like you are just chasing one problem after another. To really get ahead of it, you have to stop the problem from happening again.

A single sting can lead to a life-threatening allergic reaction. If someone in your family is at risk, proactive prevention around your home becomes a matter of safety. For those with allergies to stinging insects, even a day in the yard can be filled with worry. But while you can’t control what happens elsewhere, you can safeguard your home. Strategic prevention can help keep bees, wasps, and hornets away from your property. Try these effective methods to protect your home from bees, wasps, hornets, and other stinging insects: Block off cracks, gaps, and openings around your home Keep trash sealed and clean up food scraps promptly Rethink plant choices and modify landscaping to deter nesting Try natural repellents and avoid floral scents Mow, trim, and remove debris on a regular basis Take care of leaky spigots and standing water Pack soil into animal burrows and yard holes Dress in neutral tones instead of bright colors Stain or seal exposed wood to make it less attractive Stay alert and remove nests before they grow Let’s explore how these methods can effectively defend your home from stinging insects. Top 10 Tips for Preventing Stinging Insect Nests on Your Property Curious why bees, wasps, or hornets keep showing up? It’s simple: they’ve found the essentials they need to survive.

All too often, people see black ants and can’t tell the difference between carpenter ants and “regular” ants. That’s a problem both ways because people might ignore a carpenter ant problem, thinking it’s just a few pests, and only discover the real issue after significant structural damage has been done. Someone else might panic, assuming that any ant is a carpenter ant. While that option is stressful, at least it usually leads to treatment, thereby preventing serious damage and stopping an infestation early. (more... ) --- - Published: 2025-06-19 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/what-attracts-house-centipedes/ With their jittery movements and frightening appearance, house centipedes (Scutigera coleoptrata) are known for surprising homeowners. Although they pose little to no risk to humans, their sudden presence can make even the bravest person uneasy. If one has recently dashed across your floor, you’re likely asking: how did it get inside, and why? The answer is pretty straightforward: house centipedes are drawn to places where they can find food, moisture, and shelter. If your home offers all three, it quickly becomes an attractive hideout. How These Pests Sneak Inside House centipedes don’t need much of an opening to make their way into your home. They’re small, quick, and resourceful. Tiny cracks in the foundation, gaps around plumbing, open vents, loose siding, or worn window seals are all potential access points. Once they get in, they seek out cool, shadowy corners that offer both protection and prey. Since they’re nocturnal, they often go unnoticed at first. By the time you see one, it may have already established a quiet hideaway in spots like crawl spaces, bathrooms, or under appliances. They’re Looking for Their Next Meal Before ever entering a house, centipedes typically live outside beneath mulch, garden stones, or damp leaf piles. When the bugs they feed on move closer to your home, or disappear from the yard, centipedes follow the trail. While they do help reduce populations of unwanted insects, repeated sightings means you likely have an unaddressed pest problem. House centipedes feast on a wide range of household pests,... --- - Published: 2025-06-10 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/cicada-season/ Long Island, get ready for the buzz! In 2025, our region is set to experience a once-in-a-17-year event: the emergence of Brood XIV cicadas. You might be wondering what this means for your property and how to cope with these noisy, red-eyed visitors. Fear not, because Arrow Exterminating is here to help. We understand that the thought of millions of insects swarming your backyard can be unsettling, but we're here to put your mind at ease with this guide. What You Need to Know About Cicadas Cicadas are a type of insect that spend most of their lives underground, feeding on tree roots. In the spring, when the soil temperature reaches 64°F, they emerge en masse to molt, mate, and lay eggs. Brood XIV cicadas, which are expected to arrive in Long Island in mid-May 2025, are known for their distinctive black bodies, red eyes, and loud mating calls that can reach up to 100 decibels. Get Started Today! Get Started with Arrow Are Cicadas a Threat? Not really – these insects are generally harmless to humans and animals. While the idea of a cicada infestation might sound scary, they don't bite, sting, or carry diseases. However, their egg-laying habits can cause damage to young trees and shrubs, as female cicadas create holes in branches to deposit their eggs. This can lead to broken or weakened limbs, which may require pruning or removal. How You Can Get Rid of Cicadas While completely eliminating cicadas from your property may not be... --- - Published: 2025-06-06 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/german-cockroach-prevention/ As someone who believes in taking proactive measures against pest infestations, preventing German cockroaches in your home is not just about pest control. It’s about creating a healthier living environment! These persistent little pests, identifiable by their brownish-tan hue, are a nuisance and a legitimate threat to your peace of mind and well-being. Why Focus on Prevention? German cockroaches are not your average pests. Their small size allows them to hide in the tightest of spaces, making them incredibly challenging to eradicate once they establish themselves. Given that a single female can produce upwards of 50 offspring at a time, understanding how to keep these invaders at bay is essential. Where Do They Come From? Unlike their larger cousins who might wander in from the outdoors, German cockroaches are experts at hitching rides into your home. Here are some common sources of an infestation: Grocery Deliveries and Take-Out Containers: A single egg case hidden in a box can lead to an infestation. Second-Hand Electronics: Appliances with warm motors are attractive to these pests. Used Furniture: Items like dressers and beds can harbor roaches. Shared Living Spaces: In apartments, they can migrate through plumbing and electrical lines, creating a challenge for residents. Signs of a Roach Infestation Monitoring your living space for signs of German cockroaches is vital. Look out for: Droppings: Tiny, pepper-like specks often found in cabinets. Egg Cases: Oval and often found stuck to surfaces. Odor: A musty or oily smell can indicate roach presence.

The good news? A history of termites doesn’t automatically mean a home should be ignored. With the right knowledge and professional guidance, you can confidently move forward in the sale, while preserving your new home’s value. Termites are often referred to as “silent destroyers” for a reason. They can quietly eat away at wood, flooring, and support structures for years before anyone notices. Because colonies take time to grow large enough to detect, it’s easy for previous owners to miss the warning signs. That’s why it’s crucial to include a termite inspection as part of your home-buying checklist. A licensed inspector can spot current infestations as well as signs of past damage or repairs. Let’s break down what to expect if you're considering a home with a termite history, and how to move forward with confidence. Considering a Home With Termite Damage? Here’s What You Should Know It’s completely normal to have concerns about unseen damage or the risk of reinfestation. If the home has an active termite issue, immediate treatment is non-negotiable. But if the damage is old and already repaired, your focus should shift to preventing future problems. As part of your due diligence, ask for a wood-destroying insect (WDI) report. This inspection reveals any past or present termite activity, equipping you with the insights needed to make a smart purchasing decision. Also keep in mind that termite history... --- - Published: 2025-04-10 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/preparing-your-home-for-carpenter-ant-season/ As spring brings along warmer temperatures and beautiful greenery, carpenter ants become increasingly active. Unlike typical household ants, these wood-boring insects tunnel through timber, which can weaken your home’s structure over time. If you start noticing large ants indoors, especially ones with wings, it may be time to arrange a professional inspection. Not sure whether the ants in your home are carpenter ants? Our guide will help you recognize their traits and understand their behavior. Why Carpenter Ants Appear in Spring As the weather warms, carpenter ants become more active in their search for food and moisture. Excess water from rain and melting snow softens wood, making it easier for them to create nesting sites. One of the notable behaviors of the season is their nuptial flight. During this reproductive phase, winged ants, known as alates, take to the air to establish new colonies. Spotting swarms of flying ants near your home may indicate an expanding colony nearby. How to Identify Carpenter Ants in Spring Look for these distinguishing features: Large size (1/4 to 3/4 inch). Dark coloration, often black. Presence of winged alates during mating flights. For a complete identification guide, visit our Carpenter Ant Pest ID resource. Signs That Carpenter Ants May Be Nesting Nearby While carpenter ants are present year-round, certain warning signs are more apparent in spring: Frequent sightings along exterior walls and your home’s foundation Small piles of sawdust-like frass near damp or rotting wood, especially after rain Groups of ants around woodpiles, tree stumps,... --- - Published: 2025-01-02 - Modified: 2025-01-03 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/why-rodents-are-dangerous/ If you’ve spotted a mouse or rat in your house, it’s time to plan rodent control services. By the time you see a single mouse, there could already be hundreds more lurking behind the scenes. Mice and rats both reproduce fast; even a single female of either species could produce 50 or more offspring every year. Combine that with the fact that these offspring will be able to reproduce after just a month and a half, and you’re well on your way to a full-blown infestation. It’s easy for a rodent infestation to spiral out of control if left unattended. But are rodents actually dangerous – or just annoying? Read on to get more insight from the Arrow Exterminating team. How Dangerous Are Rodents, Exactly? Despite how cute they may seem, these small creatures can be extremely dangerous for your property and your family’s well-being. Rodents can cause extensive property damage, spread disease, and more. Potential Diseases Rats and mice are known to carry an immense list of diseases, many of which are potentially severe. The majority of these diseases are actually carried by the fleas and ticks that hitch a ride on the rodents’ bodies. This extensive list includes Lyme disease and salmonella – even the plague! The primary concern from rodents themselves is the hantavirus, which is transmitted via body fluids, especially droppings. Risk of House Fires If rats and mice get inside wall voids, they can chew through insulation and electrical wires. Damaged wires are a recipe... --- - Published: 2024-12-02 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/top-5-tips-to-enjoy-a-pest-free-holiday-season/ The holidays bring joy, gatherings, and delicious food – but they can also bring unexpected guests! Along with the warmth and festive cheer of the season, you may unknowingly invite pests like spiders, ants, and even rodents into your home. Between unpacking stored decorations and bringing in fresh greenery, pests have more than a few chances to sneak in. With these five tips and the help of our expert team at Arrow Exterminating, you can keep your home cozy and critter-free this holiday season. 1. Inspect Decorations for Pest Activity Decorations stored in attics, basements, or garages are often ideal hiding spots for pests. Mice, in particular, love quiet, undisturbed spaces and might use those tucked-away boxes as their nesting spots. When you’re ready to decorate, take a close look at any stored boxes for signs of rodents, like shredded paper or droppings. If you find evidence of mice or rats, it’s best to discard any contaminated items and sanitize the area thoroughly. 2. Check Foliage for Signs of Pests Natural greenery like wreaths, garlands, and Christmas trees add warmth and beauty to your home – but they can also harbor pests. From spiders to aphids, various insects might be hiding in the branches. Give any greenery a good shake before bringing it inside, and visually inspect it for eggs, insects, or webs. It’s better to take a little extra time checking now than to discover unexpected critters later! If you’re buying a fresh tree, it’s worth noting that many... --- - Published: 2024-10-09 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/eastern-equine-encephalitis/ The Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) Virus in Long Island Recent testing in Connecticut and Rhode Island has brought to light the unwelcome presence of the Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) virus from local mosquitoes. It’s a rare but serious disease that Long Island residents need to be aware of, with a mortality rate of about 30% and long-lasting neurological effects among survivors. Infections involving horses and wildlife across the Northeast and as far as Wisconsin are alarming experts. Neighboring states are already responding with pesticide sprays in critical areas. The black-tailed mosquito (Culiseta melanura) is the main culprit in spreading EEE. Traditionally, mitigating mosquito-borne threats involves community-wide pesticide sprays, personal repellents, and education on prevention methods. However, these solutions can only go so far and sometimes come with their inconveniences and inefficiencies. We at Arrow Exterminating specialize in mosquito control services that focus on preventing disease-carrying mosquitoes. By combining local expertise with professional, environmentally sensitive treatment plans, we offer prevention against disease-carrying mosquitoes to those in Long Island. Recent Eastern Equine Encephalitis (EEE) Cases This year, five reported EEE cases within the US, predominantly in the Northeast, have already been reported. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported seven cases in 2023 nationally. Most recently, a New Hampshire resident lost his life from contracting the virus. With more individuals affected this year, it’s clear the threat posed by EEE remains high, emphasizing the crucial need for effective mosquito control strategies.

Wasps and yellow jackets tend to be extremely active in autumn while other insects slow down and/or die off, which leads to some confusion as to what wasps and yellow jackets do in cool weather. First, a point of clarity for the terminology – yellow jackets are a type of wasp. They’re often a bit smaller than other types of wasps and can be far more aggressive. The following information refers to both wasps and yellow jackets, but for simplicity, we’ll mostly refer to them as “yellow jackets” since they’re the most aggressive and, therefore, most visible. Why Are Wasps More Aggressive in the Fall? You can guarantee wasps get more aggressive in autumn because of a Lack of food. The queen wasp stops laying eggs when this time comes around, which means there are no larvae (which produce a sweet substance) for adult wasps to feed on. So they search for outside food sources, including your property. Yellow Jacket Behavior in the Fall Unlike some creatures that will store food, yellow jackets have very much of a hand-to-mouth existence... meaning that the food they gather is used to feed themselves, their queen, larvae, or young. None is saved. In the spring, food is abundant, and the colony’s population is at its lowest. However, by the time the weather turns cold in the fall, the colony is at its maximum size, and simultaneously, food sources are starting to dwindle.... --- - Published: 2024-06-17 - Modified: 2025-08-20 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/joro-spider-and-long-island/ The Joro Spider is a species of orb-weaver spider that has recently made headlines as it's been spotted in several states across the eastern United States – including, yes, here in Long Island. The Joro Spider isn’t your typical garden spider. They are large, vibrant, and appear menacing. What could this new spider be? Is it possible that you have come across the Joro Spider? In this blog, we will provide answers to the mystery of this fascinating newcomer. Should any pests become problematic to your property, Arrow Exterminating is here to help. What Does the Joro Spider Look Like? The Joro Spider stands out for several reasons. It’s a large, vibrantly colored spider with a massive web. Seeing a large Joro usually means it is a female, as the spiders exhibit sexual dimorphism. This means that the females and meals vary in appearance from one another. Here’s how to tell male and female Joro spiders apart: Male: Size: Much smaller than females. Color: Darker, less vibrant, with more subdued colors. Web: Does not build webs as females do. Female: Size: Large, with a body length of about 0. 75-1 inch and a leg span of up to 4 inches. Color: Bright yellow and blue body with distinctive red markings. Web: Builds large, intricate webs that can span up to 10 feet. The Joro Spider web is also distinct, as they are large, strong, and golden. The webs can trap a variety of insects.

It lets you go places, offers convenience, and makes you feel liberated. But what happens when your beloved vehicle becomes a hot spot for wasps? Yes, you read that right—wasps can find their way into your car and build nests inside. So, buckle up and explore the world of wasps in vehicles. Why Do Wasps Like to Nest in Cars? Wasps are clever insects, always searching for a good spot to make their nests. And empty cars, with their cozy nooks and crannies, provide the perfect opportunity for these buzzing insects. A car's warm and sheltered interior can mimic the conditions of a natural nest site, making it an attractive spot for wasps to settle in. They can enter through open windows, gaps in the doors, or air vents. Why Do I Have Wasps in My Car? Cars may seem like an odd attraction for wasps, but some reasons can explain their attraction in the first place. Here are some common culprits: Food Residue: Leftover crumbs, spilled drinks, or sweet-scented air fresheners can entice wasps to explore your car for a tasty treat. Shelter: Wasps may choose your car as a haven to build their nest if you park it in an area with little natural shelter. Paper and Cardboard: Wasps are notorious for their love of paper and cardboard. These materials can be an invitation for them to start nest-building.

While not all bees and wasps are aggressive, many will sting if they feel threatened, which can happen accidentally. Bumblebees, for example, are largely considered beneficial since they are pollinators but will sting if provoked. For health and safety reasons, stinging insects should always be removed by professional pest control exterminators. Carpenter bees can damage your home or outbuildings by boring into wood, and so present their own type of threat even if they don’t sting. Since these insects may look similar and are hard to distinguish, it’s always best to call in the experts in stinging insect removal to get rid of potentially dangerous bees, wasps, and yellow jackets.

Prevention is the first step at fighting these pests. Spring is the most common time for crickets to appear as they normally hatch their eggs during this season. As the nymphs or baby crickets start to eat, they begin to grow and molt many times as they reach the adulthood stage. Throughout summer and spring, more generations will develop. Most species of female crickets lay single eggs in moist soil by inserting their ovipositor in the ground and they will extrude the eggs. Over a lifetime, female crickets can lay up to 400 eggs. Most cricket species live from spring until fall season but eventually die as the temperature becomes cold. Crickets are small to medium-sized insects roughly 0. 2 to 2 inches in length and are typically light brown, dark brown, or even black in color. While there are over 100 species of crickets in the United States alone, the most common species in the New York and Long Island area are the House, Camel and Field Crickets. When the crickets become too much of a nuisance, call the professionals with Arrow Exterminating. They are well-versed in identifying and providing pest control any time of the year.

Millipedes don’t sting like wasps or cause structural damage like termites – so they aren’t terrible. However, they can swarm when in large numbers, which looks disturbing. Similarly, earwigs are less destructive and less dangerous than other insects, but they can produce a noticeably bad odor. On the plus side, centipedes eat spiders and other insects, and earwigs are scavengers who eat anything... so they can help deter other pests – though that doesn’t mean you should tolerate them in your home. What’s the Difference Between Millipedes, Centipedes, and Earwigs? Both millipedes and centipedes live in damp areas, predominantly outside, such as under objects and in damp soil. Earwigs, by contrast, live inside homes, especially in cracks and gaps on or near the ground. Centipedes have flattened bodies composed of 10 to 100 segments with a pair of legs on most segments. Millipedes have a similar appearance, but they are brownish and have a pair of legs on each segment. Earwigs look completely different with far fewer legs and a reddish-brown color. However, they have a pair of large forceps on their abdomen. Learn more about our Pest-Free 365+ program, which covers 3 dozen common insect pests, including earwigs, centipedes, and millipedes. Why Is An Earwig Called An Earwig?

The piles of droppings, the chew marks on your food and belongings, and the constant nighttime scratching that sounds like something straight out of a horror movie. If you have rats or mice in the house, it's easy to call a rodent exterminator to clear them out of your property. Unfortunately, there's more to this picture than meets the eye. If the rodents got into your insulation, you may be faced with a costly and frustrating repair. Do Rodents Like Insulation? Mice and rats like a lot of the same things. They both are fond of unsecured trash cans and cluttered areas where they can hide. Most of all, they love hidden spaces that are warm, dark and quiet. The average home offers plenty of that in the insulation in its walls and attic. Rodents are most drawn to fiberglass insulation, but any variety works well for their needs. They tunnel through the material and gnaw at it for food or to make a nest. And all the while they will leave their urine and droppings, and these contaminants will stay behind long after the rodents are gone.

The only thing you can do is remove the damaged insulation and replace it.

While most people recognize that some insects can be a bane to the garden as well as a blessing, they do not necessarily think of rodents. Yet rats and mice (as well as other rodents) are common garden residents. Do Rats Burrow in Gardens? Yes, rats dig homes (known as burrows) about one to six feet deep in gardens. Norway rats, which are commonly found on Long Island, are especially prone to burrowing in a garden. In fact, gardens are prime locations for rats because they like fresh soil with food and water sources. Gardens provide all three necessary items. What Do Rat Holes Look Like? A rat hole will be about 2-4 inches wide. If the hole is newly excavated, fresh dirt will be around the entrance – usually in a fan-shaped pattern. If the rat hole is a little less new, the entrance will be smooth and compacted by the rats traveling the burrow. The depth is another indicator because rat burrows tend to be 18 inches deep and about 3 feet long, on average. Rats can burrow deeper but tend to do so only when they are digging past a fence post, concrete slab, foundation, or similar structures. Is It Okay to Have Mice or Rats in the Garden? Having mice or rats in your garden may sound harmless or even cute, but it is not.

Despite that, they have a certain strange mystique... so let's look at the most common questions people ask about cockroaches. What Eats Cockroaches? That question has two sets of answers – the animals that prey on cockroaches and places where people eat cockroaches. Insects are eaten all over the world for their protein content, and cockroaches are an especially good source. The predators that eat cockroaches cover a wide range that includes other insects. Even entomopathogenic fungi spores “eat” cockroaches by infecting them, gradually killing them, and then consuming the dead roaches. Similarly, wasps will often lay their eggs within cockroach larvae, which then eat the cockroaches when the wasps hatch. Among the creatures that eat cockroaches are: Frogs & Toads Geckos & Skinks Monitor Lizards Iguanas & Bearded dragons Panther chameleons Large species of beetles Hedgehogs Mice & Rats Opossums Turtles Scops owls Oriental magpie robins Jays Coucals Tiger Shrikes Junglefowl Tree pies Makholas Laughingthrushes Babblers Collared kingfishers Pheasants Orioles Peafowl White-breasted waterhen Greater racket-tailed drongos Most species of parrots Most species of Mynas Most species of Starlings Ants Some types of spiders Some types of mites Some types of roundworms Some types of centipedes Praying mantis Additionally, cats eat cockroaches but usually only in the wild.

In reality, squirrels can be very territorial – much like blue jays. In fact, many C. W. Post alumni have stories of squirrels chittering at them as if to tell the students to stay away. Depending upon the type of squirrel, they could be either solitary or live in groups. In case you were wondering, squirrel colonies are called a scurry or a drey. Are Eastern Gray Squirrels Territorial? Eastern gray squirrels sometimes give the appearance of being territorial... . though they actually are not. However, they do tend to form hierarchies of dominance, according to Michael Steele of Wilkes University in Pennsylvania. To establish dominance, the squirrels will act aggressively toward each other and chase one another – which looks like territorialism to the untrained eye. Gray squirrels also do a less aggressive form of chasing in the spring when they are seeking mates. Male squirrels will chase the females. It's not forceful, but rather a ritual as they assess each other. Lastly, young gray squirrels will chase each other to playfully mimic and learn how to fight, just like puppies and kittens do. Squirrels also have a complicated method of communicating. That can involve warning off possible threats of any kind as well as more normal communication when they chitter at other creatures. Are Squirrels Aggressive? While some squirrels are territorial, the species doesn't matter when it comes to a particularly unsavory practice.

For some people, though, the reaction is extreme revulsion or fear. Sometimes that's because of a bad prior experience. In some cases, it's completely understandable if they have an allergy to bee, wasp, or hornet stings. For certain people, it is a full-blown phobia. A true phobia of insects is more than just intense dislike. Instead, it's a strong physical and emotional reaction. For example, someone with an insect phobia even seeing images on TV or a silly toy version could trigger an emotional reaction. Seeing one in person can cause sweating, trembling, anxiety, and other physical reactions.

How can you tell the difference between a mouse, rat, mole, and vole? Read on for a guide to the rodents you may find on Long Island. Rats On Long Island, the vermin from the rat family that you will most commonly find is the Norway rat – which is also known as the water rat and sewer rat. Yes, as those latter two names indicate, they can swim. This species arrived in America in the 1700s on ships. The Nassau County Department of Health says that Long Island may have just as many rats as the city; they can just hide more easily in the suburbs. Rats are easy to distinguish from mice because they’re bigger, 7-9 ½ inches long. Sometimes also called brown rats, they sometimes have a scattering of black hairs among the brown fur on their backs and commonly have a white to gray underside. Contrary to popular belief, rats are not nocturnal. They can be active any time of day, but they have poor eyesight, so they frequently like the nighttime when it is quiet, and fewer humans are active to get in their way. Mice House Mice When you see mice in pop culture, house mice are usually the version depicted. Only 2 ½-3 ¾ inches long, their fur varies from light brown to dark gray with white bellies.

Unfortunately, crickets can easily get into a house – which is why they're called “accidental invaders” – and, once in, they are very difficult to eliminate. So, crickets can end up in your basement spring through fall... though they actively seek out refuge in the fall. Why Do I Have Crickets in My Basement? Crickets tend to seek out shelter as temperatures change. They also seek out food and water, which makes your home attractive any time. Basements are an ideal habitat for spider crickets. As their other name, cave crickets, implies, they like dark, cool, and somewhat damp locations. The average basement fits that bill all too well. What Season do Crickets Go Away? That depends upon whether they have invaded your home. Outdoors, adults will die off during the winter while nymphs emerge in the spring. If they have infested your home, they can technically live there year-round. Do Crickets Have a Larval Stage? Crickets lay eggs. The eggs hatch and turn into nymphs, which some people refer to as “larvae”. They then go through a stage called “instars” before becoming adults. What Do Cricket Nymphs Eat? In the wild, cricket nymphs tend to eat plant matter almost exclusively, as opposed to adults. Nymphs are also ravenous because they need to eat to grow – and they can cause great harm to crops in the wild.... --- - Published: 2020-10-08 - Modified: 2022-03-30 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/blog/tips-for-keeping-your-pumpkins-safe/ Many homeowners decorate with pumpkins in the fall as part of seasonal decorations or for Halloween, but the last thing you want to find are nibbled pumpkins or bugs infesting pumpkins and other decorations.

In the case of crickets and grasshoppers, they are related to each other and a few other well-known insects but that doesn’t mean crickets and grasshoppers are the same. They’re not, and we’ll explain the differences. What’s the Difference Between Grasshoppers and Crickets? Crickets, grasshoppers, katydids, and locusts are all members of the order Orthoptera (the name derives from a word meaning “straight wings”) so all four types of insects have common ancestors. However, they belong to different suborders and have different distinguishing traits. Crickets belong to the Ensifera suborder, and there are more than 900 varieties of crickets. Grasshoppers are members of the Caeliferans suborder, and there are more than 11,000 kinds of grasshoppers. Many people incorrectly identify crickets as grasshoppers. While they do have some similarities in their appearance, grasshoppers and crickets are fairly easy to tell apart. Grasshoppers are bright green so they blend in with grass and plants. Crickets, however, are nocturnal so they’re either pale green or, more commonly, brown so they can hide better from predators at night. Grasshoppers are much larger. Since they’re usually about four inches and crickets are only two inches, grasshoppers are twice the size of crickets. Grasshoppers have very short antennae while crickets have very long antennae. Grasshoppers also have wings, which crickets don’t so they can only jump and crawl while grasshoppers can jump, fly, or crawl. Do Grasshoppers and Crickets Eat the Same Thing?

Some of the most common household pests are carpenter ants and termites. While these two insects share some minor similarities, each type of pest causes its own, unique form of damage. One of the main differences between a carpenter and a termite is the amount of damage caused by each type of insect. Since carpenter ants rip wood apart without ingesting it, they typically cause less damage than termites. However, when a carpenter ant infestation takes hold on your property, you could face very significant structural damage. When comparing carpenter ants and termites, it is also helpful to know that carpenter ants retain their wings, whereas termites lose their wings quite easily. If you find a pile of discarded wings in an area of your home, this is a sign of a termite infestation. --- --- ## Pests - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-10-09 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/ants/carpenter-ant/ Carpenter Ants in Long Island Carpenter ants get their name because they excavate their nests in wood, creating smooth tunnels and galleries. Sometimes mistaken for termites, carpenter ants are wood-destroying pests that tunnel through wood to construct nests. Their nest-building activities destroy the structural integrity of homes and businesses. Carpenter ants do not eat and digest wood, but instead, bore through the wood and hollow it out for nesting. Over time, they seriously damage wood, reducing solid structures to hollow shells. Feeding on a wide variety of foods, carpenter ants prefer the sugary honeydew excreted by plant-sucking insects. Carpenter Ant Habitat Drawn to moisture, carpenter ants can establish nests in a number of different locations. These locations can be either inside or outside of a home or structure and generally near damp, decaying wood. In homes and buildings, the parent nest is generally located outside in a tree, stump, or stack of firewood. Nests are more likely to be found in wood dampened by water leaks, such as attic rafters, roof overhangs, wall voids, hollow doors or columns, and in crawl spaces and behind dishwashers. Indoor carpenter ant infestations are always associated with moisture issues in homes or businesses. Carpenter Ant Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Carpenter ants pose a serious threat to homeowners. Even though carpenter ants rarely bite and are not generally thought of as dangerous, their burrowing activity weakens and destroys the structural integrity of homes and businesses.

Their name is derived from the acrobatic pose of the workers when they are alarmed, with the abdomen raised and arched above the head. Their stinger is shaped like a spatula, which they use to wipe their venom on smaller prey. Acrobat ants tend to nest in hollow stems and twigs and they may tunnel through soft damp wood much like carpenter ants. The ants practice mutualism, which means they tend aphids and feed on the honeydew that the aphids produce. When acrobat ants nest indoors they generally nest inside wood or cavities kept moist with water from leaks. Acrobat Ant Habitat Outdoors, acrobat ants nest in a variety of locations, usually in the deadwood of trees, including branches, stems of trees, and stumps. They are not considered pests of trees and shrubs but they do protect aphids and other insects that are pests. Indoors, acrobat ants nest in woodwork, sometimes moving into abandoned carpenter ant and termite galleries. When found nesting in a home, they prefer doors and window frames that have been damaged by other insects or moisture. When foraging for food, these ant pests prefer kitchen cabinets and pantries. Their presence, whether indoors or outdoors, indicates decaying wood. Acrobat Ant Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Worker acrobat ants have been known to bite aggressively and release a foul odor when provoked. Mild reactions are common and may last from a few hours to a... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/ants/odorous-house-ant/ Odorous House Ants in Long Island Odorous house ants are known for the rotten, coconut-like odor they emit when crushed. Named for their offensive odor, odorous house ants are one of the most difficult household ants to control. These ants lack aggression between nests, actually cooperating with other ants, which allows them to dominate areas they invade. Sometimes referred to as sugar ants, they prefer to nest outdoors and feed on the honeydew produced by aphids and mealybugs. They are more likely to invade homes in rainy weather when the honeydew of plants might be washed away. Odorous House Ant Habitat The odorous house ant will move their nests frequently and can survive in a variety of environments. In selecting a nesting site, the odorous house ant will construct a nest in shallow soil that is often located beneath an object, like a board or stone. Stacked materials, such as lumber, firewood, bricks, rocks, and cardboard are also favorite nesting sites. They forage into structures looking for food and can be found in kitchens and food prep areas. Indoors, odorous house ants prefer areas near moisture—wall voids near water pipes, heaters, leaking fixtures, and damaged wood are all ideal habitats for them.

In the Long Island area, pavement ants feed on meat, grease, dead insects, seeds, and sweets. However, their favorite food is the honeydew produced by aphids and mealybugs. Swarms from mature pavement ant colonies occur in the spring but may occur continuously if the nest is located indoors. Ant swarmers are sometimes confused with termites and cause unsightly issues when swarming in commercial buildings. Since they build their nests in pavement, walkways, and sidewalks next to structures, they often make their way indoors in search of food. Pavement Ant Habitat Pavement ants move in slow deliberate motion and trails are often seen at night going to and from food sources. True to their name, pavement ants nest under or near sidewalks, slabs, and concrete, making urban habitats ideal due to the lack of vegetation. When building nests, they place any soil removed in a mound near their nesting site. These mounds are usually discovered on the surface of the ground or next to a patio or sidewalk. Inside homes, ants tend to be found in kitchen areas or the patio, establishing nests inside wall voids, insulation, or under flooring. Pavement Ant Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Pavement ants can bite and sting, but they rarely bite humans. Considered a nuisance pest, pavement ants create unattractive piles of debris on driveways, sidewalks, and inside commercial buildings. Pavement ants contaminate food as they invade homes in large... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/ants/pharaoh-ant/ Pharaoh Ants in Long Island One of the most persistent and difficult ants to control in the Long Island area is the Pharaoh ant. Due to their large colonies, containing up to several million workers and thousands of queens, they are challenging to eliminate. An invasive species, they outnumber native ants, forcing them out of the area. Pharaoh ant colonies can quickly split and form new colonies when disrupted. Because of their splintering ability, they can spread throughout homes and buildings rapidly. Indoors, they will nest in any well-protected areas throughout a structure, but prefer lawns and gardens outdoors. Pharaoh Ant Habitat Searching for food round the clock, Pharaoh ants feed on sweets, proteins, and live or dead insects. Preferring areas near moisture, nests are located near a water resource, such as sprinkler systems and evaporative cooling units. Inside homes and businesses, Pharaoh ant nests are generally located in hard-to-reach locations near moisture, such as bathrooms, kitchens, under floors, and behind baseboards. In hospitals, nursing homes, and food-processing facilities, they appear in kitchens, laundries, boiler rooms, and around heating ducts, toilets, and pipes. Pharaoh ants utilize electrical wiring and plumbing pipes to travel from room to room, which allows them to gain access throughout an entire structure. Pharaoh Ant Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Although Pharaoh ants do not bite, they carry and transmit a number of dangerous pathogens to people and pets, including salmonella and streptococcus. Due to their small size, they can access almost any space, contaminating food and... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/bed-bugs/bed-bug/ Bed Bugs in Long Island Found throughout all 50 states, bed bugs are nocturnal insects that feed exclusively on blood. Humans serve as their primary host, but they also feed on birds and mammals. Bed bugs are secretive and remain well hidden in cracks and crevices located in places where they are not likely to be disturbed. Bed bugs typically feed at night while their host lay fast asleep, and they can live for a year or longer without a blood meal. Their bite is essentially painless, so they are rarely detected at the time of feeding activity. Bed Bug Habitat Bed bugs live in groups and inhabit areas where humans sleep or rest for extended periods of time. Bed bugs are usually transported, unknowingly, from place to place as people travel. They conceal themselves in the seams and folds of luggage, overnight bags, bedding, furniture, and anywhere they can hide. Bed bugs can be found in homes, hotels, apartment buildings, schools, medical facilities, and other areas frequented by the public. These pests favor cracks, crevices, or seams in headboards, mattresses, luggage, backpacks, and upholstered furniture. Bed Bug Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Bed bugs do not spread disease and are not considered dangerous; however, an allergic reaction to several bites may need medical attention. The first sign of a bed bug infestation may be the appearance of bites on the skin or the appearance of small brownish dots on the bed. Bed bugs gain access to people through used furniture... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/bees-wasps-hornets/bald-faced-hornet/ Bald-Faced Hornets in Long Island The bald-faced hornet greatly resembles its yellowjacket relatives and gets its name from the ivory-white markings on its face. Bald-faced hornets are relatively large flying insects and will defend their nests aggressively when they feel there is a threat. These beneficial wasps live in colonies with thousands of individuals and would be a lesser threat to humans if they did not nest in structural voids, attics, and cavities associated with landscaping features. Bald-Faced Hornet Habitat The bald-faced hornet is more likely to build its large, paper nest around areas where humans live, work, and play. These hornets build gray-colored, egg-shaped nests that can become quite large, some growing to 24 inches in length and 30 inches in diameter. Nests are created in spring and early summer by worker hornets chewing on natural wood fibers. Bald-faced hornets will construct nests in trees, under eaves, around light structures on buildings, and inside children’s playhouses. When the nest is finished, it will be the size of a football or basketball. Bald-Faced Hornet Behavior, Threats, or Dangers Bald-faced hornet stings are venomous and can cause pain and swelling for about 24 hours. People who are allergic to bee stings may have similar reactions to a bald-faced hornet sting. Bald-faced hornets scavenge in trash receptacles and forage upon food and beverages consumed outdoors. They also consume ripe fruit in gardens, farms, and vineyards. In the autumn, the combination of cooler temperatures and reduced food stimulates newly emerged reproductive wasps to... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/bees-wasps-hornets/bumblebee/ Bumblebees in Long Island Bumblebees are large and robust insects covered with densely branched setae (hairs). They have short stubby wings and are beneficial as pollinators for many kinds of crops and ornamentals. According to the National Wildlife Federation, their wings beat at least 130 times per second. The beating helps vibrate flowers until they release pollen, which is called buzz pollination. Buzz pollination helps plants produce more fruit. Bumblebee Habitat Bumblebee colonies are small, containing a dozen to a few hundred workers. Most bumblebees nest in the ground, using deserted rodent burrows and shallow cavities excavated beneath patio stones, landscaping timber, piles of compost, and within dense patches of grass. Above ground, they will occupy abandoned bird nests and fiberglass-insulated structural voids associated with outside walls, patio roofing, and decks. Bumblebee Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Bumblebees are peaceful insects and only sting when provoked. Most stings happen when their nest is disturbed. Only female bumblebees sting and unlike honey bees, they can sting more than once. Bumblebees can sting multiple times, but they do not form swarms like honey bees. The pain from a bumblebee sting is less painful than a honey bee sting, however, a sting can be dangerous if it occurs on the head or neck, or if an individual is allergic to their venom. Because bumblebees will sting when threatened, homeowners are advised to seek out a professional bee removal service rather than try to address the infestation themselves. Need help with control? Get Started with... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/bees-wasps-hornets/carpenter-bee/ Carpenter Bees in Long Island Carpenter bees get their name from their habit of boring into wood, creating chambers to raise their young. Along with bumblebee queens, carpenter bees are the largest native bees in the United States. Carpenter bees can be found across the southern United States, including right here in Long Island. Carpenter bees do not eat wood but cause damage to structures by excavating tunnels in wood, particularly in lumber that is dry and weathered. Carpenter Bee Habitat Carpenter bees are not social insects and create individual nests in trees, eaves, or sides of structures. Males and females overwinter in old nest tunnels and emerge in the spring to mate. The mated female selects a suitable piece of wood for nest construction while the male spends most of their time hovering near nest sites. The female excavates a gallery using her mandibles, furnishes her nest with “bee bread” (a mixture of pollen and regurgitated nectar), deposits an egg, and closes the cell with chewed wood pulp. A carpenter bee infestation is usually detected by observing a large amount of sawdust and pollen on the ground below the area being chewed and excavated. Carpenter Bee Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Female carpenter bees are rarely aggressive but will sting if provoked. If a person is stung by a carpenter bee and is allergic to bee venom, they should seek immediate medical attention. Male carpenter bees do not possess a stinger, but can be extremely defensive when protecting and defending... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-10-09 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/beetles/ground-beetle/ Ground Beetles in Long Island Ground beetles make up one of the largest groups of beetles in North America, with more than 2600 species. Most ground beetles are shiny, black or brown and iridescent, and are sometimes confused with cockroaches. Both are dark in color and move quickly, however, ground beetles are harmless, while cockroaches may create larger issues. Ground beetles are very common outdoor insects that occasionally become pests by wandering into houses and buildings by mistake. Ground Beetle Habitat Ground beetles are commonly found outdoors under objects such as wood, logs, rock, and other debris on the ground. During the summer, in many parts of the country, ground beetles appear in tremendous numbers. They feed mostly at night and are attracted to porch lights and other exterior lights. Ground beetles can become an annoyance by crawling into homes and buildings through small cracks or openings, or through open doorways and windows. Once inside, they can be found in hidden, damp areas in the basement or under boxes or other objects on the floor. Ground Beetle Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Ground beetles do not damage household structures or furniture and are harmless to people and pets. When exposed, ground beetles move quickly to find shelter but rarely fly. Outdoors, are actually considered beneficial because they feed on insect larvae. However, during summer, ground beetle infestations inside a home or commercial building can be overwhelming for any property owner. Although certain species have been known to release odorous secretions when... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/cockroaches/american-cockroach/ American Cockroaches in Long Island The American cockroach is known by many names—water bug or palmetto bug— as well as many unprintable expletives. It is the largest of the house-infesting cockroaches, measuring up to 2 1⁄8 inches long with fully developed reddish-brown wings. Despite its name, the American cockroach is not native to North America and was probably introduced via ships from Africa. It is currently found throughout the United States and is second only to the German cockroach in abundance. Adults can live up to one year and an adult female will produce an average of 150 young in her lifetime. American Cockroach Habitat In nature, the American cockroach is found in bat caves and hollow trees. In urban settings, it is a common inhabitant of sewers, storm drainage systems, prisons, factories, hospitals, and hotels. The American cockroach is omnivorous and an opportunistic feeder. It consumes decaying organic matter but is a scavenger and will eat almost anything. It prefers sweets but has also been observed eating paper, pet food, soap, hair, fruit, book bindings, cardboard boxes, cloth, and dead insects. American cockroaches prefer warm, damp environments and can often be found outdoors around drains, garbage bins, trees, and woodpiles. When these roaches venture inside homes in search of food, they often live in damp areas such as basements, garages, kitchens, and bathrooms. American Cockroach Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers American cockroaches have the ability to bite, although they rarely do. These cockroaches are considered dangerous pests because they breed... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/cockroaches/oriental-cockroach/ Oriental Cockroaches in Long Island The oriental cockroach is often referred to as the “black beetle” or “water bug” and is a major household pest in parts of the northwest, mid-west, and the southern United States. This species is attracted to wet and shady perimeter areas and prefers the dark and dampness of basements, cellars, and crawl spaces. Oriental cockroaches are known to climb water pipes and garbage chutes to access the upper floors of apartment buildings. They feed on all kinds of filth, debris, and other decaying organic matter and seem especially fond of garbage and the contents of discarded tin cans. Oriental Cockroach Habitat Oriental cockroaches are common outdoors and live in warm, damp shady areas near the ground. Outside the house, these cockroaches will gather near or under trash cans. When temperatures drop, they may seek shelter indoors but can tolerate cooler weather. Oriental cockroaches may enter homes in food packages from grocery stores or gain access under exterior doors, garage doors, air ducts, and ventilators. Inside, they tend to remain on lower floors and move more slowly than other species. The most common areas to find oriental cockroaches in homes are toilets, bathtubs, sinks, radiators, and pipes. These cockroaches are seasonal and adults generally appear from May through July. Oriental Cockroach Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Oriental cockroaches are not a structural pest in that they do not damage homes, but they do present a serious threat to your health and the health of your family. Cockroaches... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/rodents/deer-mouse/ Deer Mice in Long Island Deer mice often referred to as field mice or white-footed mice, are found throughout North America. Deer mice prefer woodlands, but they are also established in desert areas. Most often found outdoors in rural areas, deer mice rarely invade residential properties. These rodents are a common problem in agricultural areas, and will sometimes look for shelter in homes over winter. Their true danger lies in the fact that they are common carriers of hantavirus. They feed at dusk and dawn and tend to prefer insects, seeds, nuts, and berries. Deer Mouse Habitat Deer mice are nocturnal and spend their days in cup-shaped nests made of stems, leaves, and fibrous materials. Nests are lined with feathers or shredded cloth and can be found in tree hollows, fence posts, abandoned squirrel and bird nests, and the underside of logs and rocks. In homes, deer mice construct nests in low activity areas such as basements, attics, garages, and crawl spaces. Deer mice do not hibernate and may invade homes during winter months seeking shelter in storage boxes, wall voids, and upholstered furniture. Deer Mouse Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Throughout most of the year, deer mice nest in outdoor areas that are quiet, dark, and undisturbed. When the weather gets colder during winter, deer mice tend to invade homes, garages, sheds, and sometimes even vehicles. When they get indoors, they are often found in basements or attics. The biggest threat of deer mice is that they are able to... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/rodents/house-mouse/ House Mice in Long Island The house mouse is found across the United States and ranks as the number one rodent pest in most cities. House mice are commensal, meaning they are generally found living in close association with humans and dependent upon the human habitat for shelter and food. House mice thrive throughout the year and can be found in homes, commercial buildings, open fields, and agricultural lands. They contaminate food meant for humans and pets as they forage, dropping feces and urine along the way. House mice cause considerable damage to structures by chewing through walls and transmit pathogens that cause diseases like salmonella, a form of food poisoning. House Mouse Habitat Outdoors, house mice construct nests in fields and beneath trees and shrubs. Indoors, mice will build nests in quiet undisturbed places like wall voids, kitchen cabinets, attics, and garages. Droppings, fresh gnaw marks, and tracks or rub marks indicate areas where mice are active. Nests are made from finely shredded paper or other fibrous material, usually in sheltered locations. House mice have a characteristic musky odor that reveals their presence. Mice are active mostly at night, but they can be seen occasionally during daylight hours. House Mouse Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers The house mouse is omnivorous but prefers grains and cereals. House mice contaminate food and are implicated in the transmission of diseases such as salmonella and bubonic plague. The house mouse can cause significant damage to structures by gnawing and tunneling through walls. Mice have... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/rodents/meadow-vole/ Meadow Voles in Long Island The meadow vole, which is also called the “meadow mouse” or the “field mouse,” is the most widely distributed vole in North America. Voles resemble rats and mice but have shorter tails and heavier, cylindrical bodies. Voles are poor climbers and usually do not invade homes or other buildings. Meadow voles eat plants, especially grasses and seeds, and are prolific breeders. These rodents build extensive runway and tunnel systems, causing extensive damage to turf and landscape plants. Meadow Vole Habitat Although meadow voles spend considerable time above ground, scurrying about, they spend most of their time below ground in their burrow system. Meadow voles dig short, shallow burrows and make underground nests of grass, stems, and leaves. A protective layer of grass or another ground cover usually hides their runways. You can locate the runways by pulling back overhanging ground cover. Fresh clippings of green grass and greenish-colored droppings about 3/16 inches long in the runways and near the burrows are further evidence of voles. Meadow Vole Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Meadow voles rarely come in contact with humans and therefore pose no major public health hazards; however, they are capable of carrying disease organisms, such as plague and tularemia. Meadow voles are a significant pest to homeowners as they forage for food in gardens and landscape, causing extensive damage to orchards, tree plantings, and field crops. Vole damage to tree trunks normally occurs from a few inches above the ground to a few inches... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/rodents/norway-rat/ Norway Rats in Long Island Norway rats are stocky, heavy-bodied rats and are larger and more aggressive than their cousin the roof rat or black rat. Found throughout the United States, Norway rats are commensal rodents, living near and dependent on the human habitat for survival. Norway rats will eat almost anything but prefer cereal grains, meats, fish, nuts, and some fruits. Like most rodents, Norway rats are most active an hour after sunset and just before dawn. The gnawing activity of Norway rats can cause considerable damage to homes, gardens, and structures. Norway rats are carriers of serious diseases, including jaundice, rat-bite fever, and salmonella. Norway Rat Habitat In general, Norway rats are ground burrowing animals and construct burrows that are 2 to 3 inches in diameter and up to 6. 5 feet in length. Burrows are constructed outdoors beside foundations and gardens. Norway rats are nocturnal and will enter homes at night in search of food, returning back to their burrow. If nests are found inside homes, they are typically in basements and crawl spaces. If a population is large, Norway rats will nest in upper areas of a home or structure. Norway Rat Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Norway rats can damage foundations, slabs, garden crops, and plants as they burrow and gnaw to find food and shelter. Inside homes, Norway rats may cause extensive damage when nesting in walls and attics. Accounts of rodents starting fires through the gnawing of electrical wires have been widely reported.

They are an annoyance because of the itchy bites they leave, however, they also transmit many dangerous diseases, like malaria, West Nile, and Zika Virus. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), mosquito bites result in the deaths of more than 1 million people every year, with the majority of these deaths due to malaria. There are about 200 different species of mosquitoes found throughout the United States, with habitats ranging from deserts at or below sea level to mountain meadows with elevations of 10,000 feet or higher. Mosquito Habitat Mosquitoes lay eggs in stagnant or slow-moving water, so they are commonly found around marshes and lakes. However, needing only a half-inch of standing water to breed, mosquitoes are often found around homes, in kiddie pools, metal buckets, flower pots, and any object that collects rainwater or excess water from irrigation systems. This underscores the importance of homeowners regularly checking their property for containers that could be collecting water, providing a safe harbor for mosquito populations to breed and grow. Mosquito Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Most mosquito species require a blood meal before they can reproduce a batch of eggs. Many people and animals are bitten by mosquitoes with no side effects except the typical itchy welt. And, while a large number of mosquito bites can reduce the quality of life, the diseases these insects can transmit can be serious. Most people... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/birds/european-starling/ European Starlings in Long Island Starlings are best known for being loud and boisterous birds that often nest in urban areas. They are found throughout the United States and nest in large numbers near homes, where their presence can become dangerous for homeowners. European starlings are disliked for their loud vocalizations made at roosting time and because of the filth, they leave behind. Not only are they obnoxious to the senses, but starlings also pose some health risks to humans, by transmitting diseases such as encephalitis, ornithosis, and histoplasmosis. Additionally, starlings are bold, aggressive scavengers and can quickly destroy gardens and crops. European Starling Habitat Starlings can survive in both hot and cold environments, are not fearful of humans, and can become quite comfortable in urban environments where food and shelter are readily available to them. In rural areas, starlings are found in open fields, orchards, and farms. In cities and suburbs, starlings have adapted well, where they utilize a multitude of nesting sites including building ledges, lighted signs, and lamp posts, as well as dryer and stove exhaust ducts and vents. Starlings prefer to roost in tree cavities or small crevices but will choose an attic if these natural habitats are not available. European Starling Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers In addition to being obnoxious and loud when in groups, starlings can cause property damage. Unsightly starling droppings can eat away at pavement and asphalt, and dried droppings have been known to cause asthma. Additionally, European starlings are capable of... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/earwig/ Earwigs in Long Island Earwigs owe their name to the superstition that they purposely crawl into the ears of sleeping people and bore into the brain. Even though earwigs prefer moist, dark places, they choose these places for daytime hiding, not at night when people are sleeping. Earwigs are mostly nocturnal, searching for and feeding on a wide variety of insects and plants after dark. They are more common in the southern and southwestern United States and tend to hibernate during the winter months. Earwigs may seek refuge in homes when conditions outside are too dry, hot, or cold. Earwig Habitat The diet of earwigs consists of a wide variety of plant and animal matter. Earwigs feed on leaves, flowers, fruits, and fungi, as well as on aphids and larger insects such as flies, captured with their pincer-like cerci. Day-time hiding places include under logs, rocks, boards, or dense growth of vines or weeds. Around homes, they can be found in moisture-rich environments such as cracks near swimming pool areas, flower bed mulch, underneath outdoor potted plants, and leaf litter. Inside homes, they will congregate in flaps of cardboard boxes and inside kitchens and bathrooms. Earwig Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Earwigs don't bite people or spread disease, but they can pinch. Although their pincers are not likely to break the skin, a pinch from an earwig can hurt. For the most part, earwigs are considered a nuisance pest during spring and summer. In gardens, they can chew irregular holes in... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/house-centipede/ House Centipedes in Long Island House centipedes are found throughout the United States and have an abundance of legs, fifteen pairs of very long, slender legs to be exact. As terrifying as they look, house centipedes are beneficial invertebrates, assisting homeowners in keeping pests like cockroaches and spiders under control. Though house centipedes are found both indoors and outdoors, accidentally finding one trapped in the sink or bathtub, can be frightening. When outdoors, house centipedes are not considered harmful, but they may be considered pests when they share living spaces with us. House Centipede Habitat House centipedes are attracted to moisture and can be found outside under stones, boards, or sticks or beneath moist leaf litter and other organic matter. When found in homes, house centipedes most often occur in moist cellars, damp closets, and bathrooms, where they feed on insects and spiders. When disturbed, centipedes move quickly toward darkened hiding places. If house centipedes are abundant, there may be an underlying moisture problem in the home that should be corrected. House Centipede Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers House centipedes have a pair of poison claws located behind their head and use them to poison and paralyze their prey, usually small insects. The weak jaws of the house centipede can penetrate the skin, but with difficulty. Bites can result in swelling and pain, but usually are no worse than a bee sting. House centipedes are considered nuisance pests and when they come into your yard, it is often because they are... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/silverfish/ Silverfish in Long Island Silverfish and firebrats have enzymes in their gut that digest cellulose, and will inhabit bookcases, closets, and places where books, clothing, starch, or dry foods are available. Both silverfish and firebrats are capable of swift movement and their ability to move sideways or even jump when disturbed. Since the bodies of these insects are flattened, they can find harborage in very small cracks and crevices, even within narrow book bindings, the loose pages of books, and corrugated cardboard. Silverfish Habitat Silverfish consume both carbohydrates and proteins, and can also be cannibalistic, eating cast skins of dead and injured individuals. These nocturnal insects cannot survive without humidity and will hide during the day in high moisture areas like laundry rooms, under kitchen and bathroom sinks, and in crawl spaces. Silverfish are pests of paper, particularly paper with a glazed finish. They are especially fond of the sizing in paper products, which may consist of starch, dextrin, casein, gum, and glue. Silverfish Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Silverfish do not have wings and instead of moving from place to place by flying, they move in a very quick fish-like manner. If the object they are hiding beneath is moved, they will dart toward another secluded place. Silverfish do not bite or sting, but they can cause significant damage to personal items and food sources. Silverfish have weak jaws, causing them to scrape instead of bite. Their scraping activity results in holes in fabric and clothing, and discoloration of books,... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/sowbug/ Sowbugs in Long Island Sowbugs and pillbugs are found throughout the United States and because they are similar in appearance, their names are sometimes used interchangeably. Often known as roly-polies, pillbugs are able to roll up into a tight ball when disturbed or threatened. However, the sowbug has a pair of tail-like appendages that project out from the rear of its body, preventing them from rolling up to protect themselves. They are easily recognized by their back, which is made up of a number of hard individual plates. Since sowbugs require moisture, they do not survive indoors for more than a few days unless there are very moist or damp conditions. Sowbug Habitat Sowbugs thrive in moist environments and can be found outdoors under mulch, fallen leaves, and rocks. Sowbugs are nocturnal and require humid conditions during the day. Sowbugs are scavengers and feed mainly on organic matter. They may leave their natural habitats at night and crawl about over sidewalks, patios, and foundations. Sowbugs can become a nuisance as they often invade crawl spaces, damp basements, and first floors of structures at ground level. Sowbug Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Sowbugs do not bite or sting and cannot damage household furnishings. Sowbugs are mainly a nuisance pest, especially when they venture indoors. They are harmless to people but can damage the roots of plants when they eat. Sowbugs typically enter buildings through door thresholds, especially homes with sliding glass doors on the ground level.

Boxelder bugs usually feed on the leaves, flowers, and seed pods of the box elder tree, although they occasionally occur on maple and ash trees. These bugs often become nuisances in the fall as they congregate in search of an overwintering site. Like many other pests, boxelder bugs will often be seen either when they enter a home to overwinter, or when they emerge as spring rolls around. Boxelder Bug Habitat In the fall, adult boxelder bugs assemble on the south sides of trees, rocks, and buildings to warm themselves in the sun. After large masses of bugs accumulate, they tend to fly to nearby buildings or other protected sites where they hibernate for the winter. They will enter homes and buildings and hibernate within the walls of the structure. Boxelder bugs do not reproduce inside homes but enter through windows, doors, ceiling lights, soffit and dryer vents, outdoor faucets, and on the siding of a home. Boxelder Bug Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Boxelder bugs are generally not known to bite, though there are rare reports of defensive biting. These bugs do not sting and are not known to cause damage to homes, however, their feces can stain light-colored surfaces. During the winter months, individuals or small parties of boxelder bugs enter homes and fly into windows, bathtubs, and sinks, congregating on the floor... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/stink-bug/ Stink Bugs in Long Island Stink bugs are large, oval, or shield-shaped insects found throughout the United States. They get their common name from the odor of the chemical that they produce in glands on their abdomen, possibly as a defense against predators. Stink bugs are primarily cropping pests, damaging fruit and fruit trees. They can become a nuisance pest for homeowners when they enter homes in the fall looking for warmth. Stink bugs are attracted to the south side of structures on warm fall days in search of protected, overwintering sites and can enter homes in large numbers. Stink Bug Habitat In the wild, stink bug adults spend the winter months in cracks or under the peeling bark of older or dead trees. In early autumn, stink bugs look for wintering sites. Outdoors, they can often be found on the outsides of buildings, in leaf litter and vegetation. When brown marmorated stink bugs enter homes, they congregate near doors, windows, and other entry points. They seek out narrow spaces to hide, preferring high and cool locations. Stink bugs can be found in cracks under or behind baseboards, around window and door trim, and around exhaust fans or lights in ceilings. In the spring, adults move from overwintering sites to host plants. Stink Bug Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Stink bugs do not bite or sting and are not harmful to people, houses, or pets. While the insects are not dangerous, they are noisy and notorious for their pungent smell. Homeowners... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/spiders/black-widow-spider/ Black Widow Spiders in Long Island Widow spiders are known worldwide for their ability to cause pain and suffering in humans. Both males and females can range from dark brown to black, but only the females have the characteristic hourglass or spots on their abdomen. The clutter associated with human structures provides an ideal habitat for the black widow. These spiders are common around homes, barns, outbuildings, and rock walls. Though it is the most venomous spider in North America, black widow bites are rarely fatal, but they can be very painful. Black Widow Habitat Black widow spiders typically live outdoors, preferring to nest in quiet, dark, undisturbed areas near to the ground. Widows build irregular, erratic-looking webs and live in crevices or recesses within rock piles, block walls, sprinkler valve boxes, and undersides of patio furniture. Garages, outdoor sheds, and playground equipment are also popular spots to find black widows. Preferring to stay outdoors, black widows are typically brought into a home or structure, either in a box or on furniture. One of the most obvious signs of a black widow spider infestation is the presence of messy, irregular webs in the home or around the property. Black Widow Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Black widow spiders, despite their venom, are typically non-aggressive. These spiders will only bite if provoked, commonly when they’re pinched, squeezed, or pressed. Most bites happen when a human accidentally brushes a hand against a black widow, typically when reaching to grab an item, or cleaning... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/webworm/ Webworms in Long Island The fall webworm is native to North America and is found throughout most of the United States and southern Canada. Caterpillars construct large, unsightly webs on the outer ends of tree branches while they feed in late summer and early autumn. They are distinctly different from the Eastern Tent-Caterpillar, which prefers to create webs in the crook of tree branches. Webworms feed on the leaves of at least 80 species of shade, nut, and fruit trees. Although they don’t cause permanent damage, their webs can be unsightly in large amounts. Webworm Habitat The fall webworm lives in areas where host trees occur, namely hardwood forests and landscapes. Infestations are most common on trees growing in open areas, such as along roadsides, in yards, and on forest edges. Fall webworm moths are attractive white moths emerging between May and July to mate. Female moths lay several hundred eggs on the undersides of leaves, and when the eggs hatch, young larvae construct a nest by webbing leaves together. Larvae feed on foliage enclosed by the nest, which expands as the larvae develop. Webworm Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Webworms do not bite, are not poisonous, and are considered to be more of a nuisance pest. Although the webs are unsightly, defoliation by fall webworms usually causes little harm to the tree. Most trees are already preparing for winter dormancy, so few energy reserves or nutrients are lost. However, most property owners prefer to eliminate webworm nests. Since fall webworms... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/%pest_cat%/pine-snake/ Pine Snakes in Long Island Known as one of the largest snakes in North America, pine snakes are an average of 6 feet long but can grow to be 8 feet long. True to their name, these snakes are often found in pine woods or dry coniferous forests. They feed on rodents, small mammals, birds, and their eggs, lizards, and insects. Pine snakes will often enter animal burrows in search of the next meal. Using an unusual technique to kill its prey, by pressing the animal against the burrow walls using its strong body.

True to their name, they are brown in color with rows of dark spots and stripes down their backs. They are also on the smaller side, as they grow to be no more than 21 inches long. Brown snakes are often confused for copperheads, which is why so many are killed when seen in suburban areas. Brown Snakes Habitat Brown snakes are commonly seen in residential or urban environments, as they prefer to spend time under trash rather than stones and rocks like other snakes. They prefer to venture out at nighttime, hibernate during the winter, and are hunted by birds of prey and even larger snakes. These secretive and shy snakes eat slugs, snails, earthworms, grubs, and beetles. Brown Snakes Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers The brown snake is harmless to humans. It is often mistaken for the copperhead snake, which is venomous, and killed when they are spotted in suburban areas. However, these nonvenomous snakes lack the classic hourglass pattern found on copperheads. They can be beneficial in gardens as they feed exclusively on soft-bodied invertebrates such as slugs and earthworms. If you are having an issue with brown snakes on your property, it is best to consult a professional pest control company for removal. Need help with control?

They are known for their characteristic stripe along the entire length of the spine, making them easy to identify. Common garter snakes are not poisonous and generally completely harmless. These highly adaptable snakes are found throughout the nation and can survive in a variety of habitats and in a variety of climates. Common Garter Snakes Habitat Garter snakes have dens that are often found under large rocks or structures. They are often seen along the perimeter of buildings, under stepping stones, or in rock fences. Unlike other types of snakes, garter snakes give birth to live young. Their diet is wide-ranging, but their prey typically includes snails, slugs, crickets, and other insects. Larger garter snakes have been known to eat birds, small mammals, and frogs. The common garter snake hibernates from late October until early April in natural borrows or holes and under rocks. Common Garter Snakes Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Garter snakes don’t have fangs and are not venomous, however, they do have small teeth and can bite. Their bite can become infected if not cleaned and cared for properly. Although the condition is rare, some people are allergic to garter snake saliva. Even though garter snakes are mostly harmless, they can cause quite a scare if encountered in your home or garden. Most people are startled and frightened... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/spiders/brown-recluse-spider/ Brown Recluse Spiders in Long Island The most common North American recluse spider is the brown recluse, also referred to as the ‘violin’ or ‘fiddleback’ spider because of the violin-shaped marking on its dorsum. Found throughout Long Island, brown recluse spiders are rare outside their native range. In general, these spiders are widely over-reported and less common than perceived. Brown recluse spiders are venomous, but bites do not always result in large, necrotic lesions where surrounding tissue dies. Often, the bite goes unnoticed and only results in a pimple-like swelling. Brown Recluse Spider Habitat As their name implies, brown recluse spiders are reclusive. In nature, recluses are found in cracks and crevices in and under rocks or the loose bark of dead trees. Recluse spiders prefer to squeeze themselves into tight spaces and are found more commonly on rough surfaces such as paper, wood, and cardboard rather than smooth surfaces such as ceramic and metal. Recluses benefit from human-altered environments, where they are readily found under trash cans, plywood, tarps, rubber tires, and storage boxes. Brown Recluse Spider Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers The venom component of all recluse spiders is capable of causing necrotic skin damage. Fortunately, brown recluse spider bites are rare and only occur when the spider feels directly threatened. Of medical concern is that the brown recluse seeks refuge inside shoes, underneath clothes left on the floor, in gardening clothes, or gloves left in the garage. Although brown recluse spider bites are rare, the venom can sometimes... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/ants/little-black-ant/ Little Black Ants in Long Island The little black ant is a common structural pest and very common in Long Island. Little black ants are highly adaptable and are not usually associated with indoor colonies. Typically nesting outdoors, little black ants access homes or structures in search of food. They are omnivores, feeding on both plant and animal foods. Little black ants feed on a variety of foods including sweets, meats, grease, insects, and even feed on bird feces. Relentless pests, little black ants can be difficult to eliminate. Little Black Ant Habitat The colonies of little black ants may contain several queens and be heavily populated. Generally, little black ant infestations start outside and can be traced back to mulch, stones, a stump, tree, log, fence, or pile of lumber or bricks. Indoors, little black ant colonies will nest in wall voids and cabinets, as well as, within and behind foundations and brick or stone veneer. When colony populations are at their peak, little black ants may spread throughout a structure quickly, invading every gap and crack or crevice. The sight of little black ants inside homes may signal a larger infestation outdoors or within the structure. Little Black Ant Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Despite the fact that little black ants have a small stinger that doesn't really do any damage, they can become a considerable pest when they invade a home in large numbers. These tiny invasive bullies are aggressive and have been known to wipe out entire... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/bees-wasps-hornets/european-hornet/ European Hornets in Long Island The European hornet, also known as the brown or giant hornet, gets its common name from being introduced to the eastern United States from Europe in the mid-1800s. These hornets are found in 30 states, from the eastern U. S. as far west as Louisiana and the Dakotas. European hornets are much larger than yellowjackets, and unlike most stinging insects, can be active at night. Adults, possibly seeking prey, come to light in the evening and can be a source of great concern for homeowners. European Hornet Habitat European hornets are social wasps that normally build their nests in hollow trees, but will also utilize wall voids and attics of houses. Their nests will rarely appear freely suspended like the football-shaped bald-faced hornet nests. European hornet nests are generally located 6 feet or more above ground, and will occasionally be constructed on the sides of homes. In some instances, a portion of the gray, papery nest extends outside the cavity or void. An average hornet nest will have 200 to 400 workers by late summer and they can become aggressive if they feel threatened. European Hornet Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Although large and fierce-looking, European hornets will not sting unless threatened and tend to leave people alone. However, this hornet is capable of stinging multiple times, and those that may be allergic to their venom should seek medical attention when stung. European hornets can cause issues for homeowners by nesting in barns, hollow trees in... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/bees-wasps-hornets/velvet-ant-wasp/ Velvet Ant Wasps in Long Island Commonly referred to as the red velvet ant or cow killer ant, the velvet ant is actually a solitary wasp. Due to a painful sting, tough outer skeleton, and foul-smelling chemical excretions, it appears that the velvet ant does not have any predators. They get their name due to the fuzzy velvet appearance of females, which are wingless and often brightly colored. Males cannot sting and are harmless, but the females have an extremely painful sting, as suggested by the name “cow killer” given to some of the larger species. Their bright colors are actually a signal warning predators to stay away. Velvet Ant Wasp Habitat The velvet ant wasp is typically seen running around open areas, sometimes erratically, in late summer. They may be seen in lawns or pastures or wandering into buildings. Velvet ants are external parasites of bees and wasps, taking over their nests in the ground. A few species of velvet ants paralyze flies and beetles. Consequently, there are no identifiable nests to treat. Females usually search for host nests on the ground, especially on bare, sandy soil. Male velvet ants are often found on flowers. Adult velvet ant wasps feed on nectar and water. Although uncommon, velvet ant wasps occasionally enter structures in search of prey. Velvet Ant Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Although velvet ants are very docile and rarely come into contact with people, the female velvet ant has a very potent and toxic venom. A sting generally... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/birds/woodpecker/ Woodpeckers in Long Island Woodpeckers are found throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Certain species of woodpeckers cause damage to wooden structures by their pecking or drilling of holes. Typically, holes in structures are made in an attempt to construct a nest site or to feed on insects present in the wood. The drumming of a woodpecker on the woodwork or gutter of a home can be a major annoyance. Drumming is a springtime activity of males proclaiming their territories and may occur several times throughout the day. Woodpecker Habitat Woodpeckers live in forests, backyards, and various other types of habitats where trees are available. As evening falls, woodpeckers look for roosting cavities, either an old abandoned hole or a cavity they excavated specifically for roosting purposes. Woodpeckers excavate nesting holes at the start of the breeding season, usually in late April and May. These birds are very selective when choosing sites, and wooden houses or buildings in the suburbs and rural areas are most apt to be damaged by woodpeckers. Woodpecker Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Damage to wooden structures and trees may take several forms. Holes may be drilled into wooden siding, fascia boards, or window casings. Woodpecker damage to utility poles can be severe and widespread in some regions, requiring pole replacement. In addition, woodpeckers will commonly peck out insects from infested wood on structures, particularly the larvae and pupae of the carpenter bee. Woodpeckers are protected by the Federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act as migratory, nongame... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/cockroaches/asian-cockroach/ Asian Cockroaches in Long Island In 1986, the Asian cockroach was identified as a newly introduced species to the United States when a professional pest control operator collected these insects in Long Island. He referred to them as German cockroaches, but upon further investigation, the cockroaches were found to be Asian cockroaches. Although adult German and Asian cockroaches are similar in appearance, unlike German cockroaches, Asian cockroaches are strong fliers with sustained flights of at least 120 feet. The Asian cockroach is only a pest during periods of peak adult populations, in early spring and summer. Asian Cockroach Habitat Unlike German cockroaches, which prefer to live indoors and are a major household pest, Asian cockroaches prefer to live outside in mulched beds, compost piles, leaf litter, and lawns. When people first see Asian cockroaches they may think they are seeing little flying moths, or German cockroaches because the two species look similar. These roaches become active at sundown and are attracted to lights. They often fly inside structures through any opening such as lighted doorways or windows. Many people become upset when they see Asian roaches inside their homes, however, indoor infestations are rare occurrences. Asian Cockroach Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers The behavior of Asian cockroaches is very different from the German cockroach. The Asian cockroach is an accomplished flier, prefers to live outdoors in shaded areas, mulch, grass, and compost piles, and rarely invades homes. At dusk, this species becomes active and adults are attracted to light reflected off... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/cockroaches/brown-banded-cockroach/ Brown-Banded Cockroaches in Long Island The name “brown-banded cockroach" comes from the pronounced bands of color across the wings of adults and bodies of nymphs. In North America, the brown-banded cockroach is thought to be present in most states and lives in buildings that maintain relatively high temperatures. This cockroach is similar to the German cockroach with its small size and body shape but can be distinguished by its lack of two dark stripes. Both brown-banded and German cockroaches are obligatory domestic roaches, which means they do not live outside and rely solely on conditions created in our homes and buildings for survival. The brown-banded cockroach is sometimes referred to as the “furniture cockroach” because it is distributed evenly throughout households, including non-food locations, such as bedrooms, under chairs and tables, and behind pictures and other objects on walls. Brown-Banded Cockroach Habitat Brown-banded cockroaches prefer warmth and tend to be found up and away from the floor in closets or in heat-generating appliances. Brown-banded cockroaches are good climbers and can be active at night and during the day. Females seek out warm, dark places where they can attach their yellowish-brown egg capsules, and prefer walls, ceilings, tables, bedding, or furniture. Brown-banded cockroaches feed on a variety of materials including human food, starches, dyes, glue, books, stamps, and clothing. Brown-Banded Cockroach Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Brown-banded cockroaches are not aggressive and do not bite. These roaches reproduce at an alarming rate and one female can produce up to 600 young in... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/cockroaches/smokybrown-cockroach/ Smokybrown Cockroaches in Long Island The smokybrown cockroach is a tropical urban pest in many parts of the United States and is common in Texas, the Gulf Coast, throughout Long Island, and in some areas of California. This species is usually found outside in decorative plantings and planter boxes, woodpiles, garages, and water meter boxes; it may occasionally inhabit municipal sewers. They sometimes invade homes, spreading bacteria as they take refuge in areas such as attics, bathrooms, and kitchens. Adults can fly, especially on warm humid evenings. Smokybrown Cockroach Habitat Smokybrown cockroaches need moisture to survive, and outdoors they are found in mulch, woodpiles, leaf litter, and tree bark— locations used as protection against drying out. These roaches are occasionally found indoors preferring the upper parts of buildings; they also live under shingles or siding and sometimes get into trees, shrubs, and other vegetation during summer months. Smoky Brown roaches are sometimes found in kitchens, bathrooms, attics, and near points of entry such as garage and crawl space doors. Smokybrown Cockroach Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Though their preferred habitat is outdoors, smokybrown cockroaches can still cause problems for homeowners, especially in humid environments. They live in a variety of disgusting places, from piles of dead leaves to storm drains and sewers, and even eat bird droppings. When entering your home, they will bring dangerous bacteria with them, contaminating cooking and eating surfaces. Their skin may also trigger allergies in sensitive people. They rarely survive in dry indoor environments, though rare... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/fleas-ticks-mites/deer-tick/ Deer Ticks in Long Island Deer ticks, also known as blacklegged ticks, are the primary carrier of Lyme disease in the United States. Widely distributed across the eastern U. S. , they are predominantly found in humid, deciduous forests. Their distribution relies greatly on the distribution of their reproductive host, the white-tailed deer. Both nymph and adult stages transmit diseases such as Lyme disease, Babesiosis, and Anaplasmosis. In 2018, there were approximately 23,558 confirmed cases of Lyme disease, making it the most common vector-borne disease in the United States. Deer Tick Habitat Deer ticks live in shady, moist areas at ground level, clinging to tall grass, brush, and shrubs, usually no more than 18-24 inches off the ground. Ticks also live in lawns and gardens, especially at the edges of woods and around old stone walls. Deer ticks will not be found out in the middle of your lawn, preferring yards that border wooded areas. Ticks also live in ornamental plantings and gardens, or any environment that offers available shade, and high humidity. Deer Tick Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Deer ticks bite, and the greatest risk of being bitten occurs during spring, summer, and fall. However, adult ticks may be out searching for a host any time winter temperatures are above freezing. Stages most likely to bite humans are nymphs and adult females. To avoid being bitten, apply an insect repellent containing an EPA-registered ingredient, such as DEET. Also, consider wearing long-sleeved shirts and pants, preferably light-colored so ticks will... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/fleas-ticks-mites/flea/ Fleas in Long Island Fleas are small, wingless blood-sucking parasites that live on the exterior of their host. Adult fleas feed only on the blood of warm-blooded hosts, which they must obtain in order to survive and reproduce. Fleas are the most common ectoparasites found on cats and dogs, so they frequently turn up as household pests. Fleas are annoying to people and pets, especially during spring and early summer when their numbers tend to increase dramatically. Flea Habitat Fleas thrive in many climates but prefer moist, humid, and shady areas. The area underneath a porch or deck can turn into an overwintering site. Areas with tall grass, leaf litter, weeds, wood piles, gravelly areas, and sandy patches are all attractive to fleas. Even the tiniest crack in the concrete can harbor fleas and they especially shrubs, leaves, and trees, but do not fare well in sunny areas or open grass. Fleas usually enter structures attached to pets, and they can quickly find refuge in homes. Flea larvae do not like the light so carpets, bedding, pet beds, and upholstered furniture make cozy homes for fleas, flea eggs, and flea larvae. Flea Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Fleas feed mainly on non-human animals but may bite and infect humans. Bites from fleas look like small red dots and may occur in two or three groups or clusters around feet, ankles, and legs. Though they may trigger allergic reactions, flea bites will not often have a serious impact on a person's health.... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/whitefly/ Whiteflies in Long Island Whiteflies are tiny, sap-sucking insects that fly around plants when disturbed. They are not true flies and are more closely related to scales, mealybugs, and aphids. Whiteflies derive their name from the mealy white wax covering the adult’s wings and body. These pests are more commonly associated with plants growing in greenhouses but also occur in plants grown in homes. All stages of whiteflies feed on plant sap, using their piercing-sucking mouthparts. Infested leaves can yellow and drop, reducing plant vigor, but usually not killing the plant. When infested plants are disturbed, great clouds of the winged adults fly into the air. Whitefly Habitat Whiteflies can develop rapidly in warm weather, and populations can build up quickly in situations where natural enemies are ineffective, and when weather and host plants favor outbreaks. Large colonies often develop on the undersides of leaves. Whiteflies suck plant juices and, in turn, produce a sticky substance known as honeydew. Honeydew left on its own can cause fungal diseases to form on leaves. Whiteflies breed all year round in warmer parts of the country, moving from one host to another as plants are harvested or dry up. Whitefly Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Whiteflies are not known to bite humans, but they do have piercing mouthparts they use to extract fluids from plants. As whiteflies excrete honeydew, plant leaves may be sticky or covered with black mold. The honeydew attracts ants, which interfere with the activities of natural enemies that may control... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/yellow-fly/ Yellow Flies in Long Island Yellow flies are sometimes mistaken for deer or horse flies and are just as unwelcome due to their painful bite. Found in the south-eastern parts of the United States from New Jersey to Texas and Long Island, their physical appearance is similar to deer flies and many people get confused when trying to identify them. Like mosquitoes, it is the female fly that is responsible for inflicting a bite, as males are mainly pollen and nectar feeders. Yellow flies are most likely encountered in the heat of summer and early fall weather. Yellow Fly Habitat Adult yellow flies are strong fliers and are often found near the larval habitat, but they may move considerable distances to find a blood meal. Yellow flies congregate in shaded, humid areas on the edges of forests, rivers, and creeks, avoiding large, open, sunny areas. Larvae are aquatic or semi-aquatic and have been found in deeply shaded areas in root mats of trees, always beneath the water surface. Yellow flies prefer warm and humid weather conditions and are most active during the daytime just before twilight. Domestic animals, including dogs, are attacked readily, although the fly's preference for shade makes it less of a pest to cattle and horses in open pastures. Yellow Fly Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers The bite of the female yellow fly is one of the most serious bites, according to The University of Long Island. Like mosquitoes, female yellow flies require a blood meal before they... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/chinch-bug/ Chinch Bugs in Long Island There are several chinch bug species that prefer different types of grass. Many lawns see chinch bug activity each year. When the bugs occur in large numbers, they can be detrimental to lawn health. They are most active in the warm summer months and thrive in sunny areas. Due to their minuscule size, they are difficult to spot. For this reason, they often aren’t found until damage has been done to your lawn. The main sign of chinch bugs in Long Island is the presence of yellow or brown spots on your lawn. Chinch Bug Habitat There are a variety of chinch bug species that infest different types of grasses. Western chinch bugs target Kentucky bluegrass, ryegrass, and zoysia grass. The hairy chinch bug infests Kentucky bluegrass, English ryegrass, red fescues, and bentgrass. Southern chinch bugs target St. Augustine, zoysia, and Bermuda grasses. In any case, they prefer areas where the grass is in full sun. Lawns are their main target, but they can infest leafy debris, heavy thatch, and even piles of cut grass. Some species can inhabit agricultural crops as well, including corn, rice, small grains, and sorghum. Chinch Bug Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Their life cycle can occur in just 6 week's time and molt through five stages before they become adults. As a lawn pest, chinch bugs can easily threaten the health of an otherwise healthy lawn. When these bugs feed on lawns, they inject a toxin into the plants or... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/clothes-moth/ Clothes Moths in Long Island Clothes moths are fabric pests and are among the few animals that can digest keratin, the fibrous protein found in animal hide, hair, feathers, and horns. There are two different types of clothes moths in North America — the webbing clothes moth and the casemaking clothes moth. The larva is the damaging stage of the clothes moth and both species feed exclusively on animal fibers, especially wool, fur, silk, feathers, felt, and leather. Serious infestations of clothes moths can develop undetected in dwellings, causing irreparable harm to clothing and decorative items. Clothes Moth Habitat Unlike some other types of moths, clothes moths are seldom seen because they avoid light. They prefer dark, undisturbed areas such as closets, basements, and attics. Indoors, clothes moth larvae are frequently noted on woolen clothes, carpets, upholstered furniture, and old wool rug remnants in the attic. Lint from wool rugs and pet hair behind baseboards and in flooring cracks all serve to invite moth infestations. A favorite egg-laying site is a carpet under the rear legs of a sofa, a spot rarely reached by a vacuum cleaner. Adult moths do not eat fabric, but their presence means that eggs will be laid soon, producing fabric-eating larvae. Clothes Moth Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Articles commonly damaged and destroyed by clothes moths include sweaters, scarves, coats, blankets, rugs, down pillows and comforters, upholstery, toys, decorative items, and taxidermy mounts. The larvae prefer to feed in dark, undisturbed areas such as closets, chests,... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/house-cricket/ House Crickets in Long Island The house cricket was introduced into Canada and the United States in the 18th century and attracted the attention of early writers by its serenades and whimsical habit of chewing on clothes. House crickets are nocturnal and omnivorous, feeding readily on various foods, and are particularly attracted to liquids, especially fermented beverages such as beer or sweetened vinegar. House crickets are drawn to warm moist environments, seeking food and shelter within homes and structures as temperatures cool down in the fall. House Cricket Habitat During warm weather, the house cricket lives outdoors in piles of debris, rocks, firewood, and lumber. They may also be seen in compost bins and garbage dumps during the winter, as well as in houses, sheds, and other shelters. With the coming of cold weather, the house cricket enters homes and is active in warm areas of the house. House crickets are nocturnal and usually first make themselves evident at dusk when they begin to seek food in homes. Homeowners may also be alerted to their presence by the familiar chirping sounds made by males. When attracting females, males rub their front wings together causing a chirping sound. House Cricket Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers House crickets do not bite or spread disease, however, they can become a nuisance if they gain entry into a home, damaging clothing, carpets, and areas covered in fabric. Because these crickets are attracted to warmth, they are often present in the vicinity of the fireplace, kitchen,... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/ladybug/ Ladybugs in Long Island Ladybugs, also called lady beetles or ladybird beetles, one the most visible beneficial insects due to their feeding on harmful insects. They are natural enemies of many insects, especially aphids and other sap feeders. A single ladybug may eat as many as 5,000 aphids in its lifetime. Many species of ladybugs are present throughout the United States and are common in most habitats. At times, however, these beetles make a nuisance of themselves by invading homes. Ladybug Habitat Ladybugs can be found in many different habitats including forests, grasslands, rivers, and in cities and suburbs. These beetles mainly live in shrubs, trees, fields, gardens, and sometimes within homes. Aphids are a ladybugs’ main source of food and they often lay their eggs near aphid colonies. Ladybugs hibernate in mass over the winter, usually in protected places like cracks in rocks, tree trunks, and in buildings and homes. Ladybug Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Ladybugs are important beneficial insects to have around as they prey on aphids and other insects that can destroy gardens and crops. However, in some areas, these beneficial beetles can become a nuisance when they enter homes. Ladybugs are overwintering insects and when one ladybug finds a suitable spot to hibernate, it produces a pheromone that attracts other ladybugs to the site. It is not uncommon to find dozens, if not hundreds of ladybugs congregating together in clumps. Quite often, a few misguided beetles get confused and enter homes through electrical outlets and other... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/millipede/ Millipedes in Long Island Millipedes, sometimes called “thousand leggers”, are household pests. These creatures normally live outdoors where they feed on damp and decaying wood and vegetable matter, as well as tender roots and green leaves on the ground. Many millipede species protect themselves by means of glands that secrete an unpleasant odor. Millipedes are found in every U. S. state, including Alaska and Hawaii, as well as in Puerto Rico. Millipede Habitat In nature, millipedes are scavengers and feed mainly on decaying organic matter. They occasionally feed on young plants but the damage inflicted is seldom significant. Millipedes have high moisture requirements and tend to remain hidden under objects during the day. Millipedes often leave their natural habitats at night and crawl about over sidewalks, patios, and foundations. At certain times of the year, especially during autumn, they may migrate into buildings in great numbers. Millipede Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers While millipedes sometimes enter structures in large numbers, they do not bite, sting, or transmit diseases, nor do they infest food, clothing, or wood. Millipedes are simply a nuisance by their presence, often invading crawl spaces, damp basements, and first floors of structures at ground level. Frequent sightings of these pests indoors usually mean that there are large numbers breeding on the outside in the lawn, or beneath mulch, leaf litter, or debris close to the foundation. Because of their moisture requirement, millipedes do not survive indoors for more than a few days unless there are very moist or... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/pillbug/ Pillbugs in Long Island As one of the only crustaceans adapted to live on land, pillbugs are common throughout the United States. Pillbugs and sowbugs are similar-looking pests that are more closely related to shrimp and crayfish than to insects. Often known as roly-polies, pillbugs are able to roll up into a tight ball when disturbed or threatened. They are easily recognized by their back, which is made up of seven hard individual plates. Since pillbugs require moisture, they do not survive indoors for more than a few days unless there are very moist or damp conditions. Pillbug Habitat Pillbugs thrive in moist environments and can be found outdoors under mulch, fallen leaves, and rocks. Pillbugs are nocturnal and require humid conditions during the day. These crustaceans are generally found in moist soil along with sowbugs, millipedes, and earthworms. Pillbugs may leave their natural habitats at night and crawl about over sidewalks, patios, and foundations. They can become a nuisance as they often invade crawl spaces, damp basements, and first floors of structures at ground level. Pillbug Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Pillbugs do not bite or sting and are not known to pose any threats to humans. They do not contaminate food or spread diseases. Pillbugs are mainly a nuisance pest, especially when they venture indoors. They are capable of feeding on tender plant tissue and occasionally cause considerable damage to garden transplants and seedlings. Pillbugs typically enter buildings through door thresholds, especially homes with sliding glass doors on the... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/nuisance-wildlife/chipmunk/ Chipmunks in Long Island Chipmunks are small, ground-dwelling members of the squirrel family known for their burrowing habits and love of nuts. Found throughout the United States, chipmunks are a common problem for homeowners. Chipmunks have pouches inside of their cheeks in which they store food when foraging. Although they don’t enter homes as often as mice and rats, chipmunks occasionally burrow underneath homes. Chipmunks destroy gardens and fruit trees by gnawing on strawberries, plums, apples, and other fruits for their flesh and seeds. Chipmunk Habitat Chipmunks are most comfortable in areas with plenty of ground cover, living in open deciduous forests and at the edges of woodlands. Their favorite habitats include logs, trees, stumps, shrubs, and rocks. Chipmunks can also be found in bushy areas and in rocky areas like walls near houses and other buildings. In urban settings, they often dig up and eat newly planted garden seeds and flower bulbs. They commonly dig unsightly burrows in lawns and flower beds in which they nest. Occasionally, they take up residence in attics or other sites that are a distance above the ground. Chipmunk Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Chipmunks pose no real threat to people, but they can disrupt the garden and occasionally enter the home. Costly damage may result when chipmunks excavate burrows beside building foundations and beneath poured cement porches, patios, and walkways. Furthermore, chipmunks will nest beneath residences, sometimes gaining access into living spaces, basements, and crawl spaces through gaps and cracks in structures. Chipmunks cause... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/nuisance-wildlife/fox-squirrel/ Fox Squirrels in Long Island Fox squirrels are found throughout the eastern and central United States and have also been introduced into cities in the western U. S. Fox squirrels spend most of their time in trees during the day, foraging for food. These squirrels are omnivores, eating everything from plant matter to insects and birds. Like other tree squirrels, fox squirrels will enter homes, building nests in attics, walls, chimneys, rooflines, and inside garages. Fox squirrels carry diseases such as tularemia and ringworm that are transmissible to people. Fox Squirrel Habitat Fox squirrels prefer open, savannah-like habitats, where trees are widely spaced and the understory is open. Fox squirrels need large trees with cavities or holes in them for building nests to raise their young. They are most common in oak-hickory forests but are also found in live oak, mangrove swamps, and pine forests. Because of this habitat preference, fox squirrels do well in urban and suburban settings. These pests will enter homes and attics, causing damage to wiring, gardens, and lawns. Fox Squirrel Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Fox squirrels sometimes cause damage around homes and gardens, where they feed on immature and mature nuts, fruit, and a variety of other plants. During the fall, squirrels dig holes in gardens or in turf where they bury nuts or other seeds. This storing of food, which they may or may not ever retrieve, raises havoc in the garden and tears up a well-groomed lawn. Squirrels sometimes gnaw on telephone cables... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/nuisance-wildlife/gray-squirrel/ Gray Squirrels in Long Island Gray squirrels are small to medium-sized rodents with bushy tails that are commonly found outdoors, climbing trees and foraging for food. Also known as tree squirrels, they get their common name from the fact that they are found in wooded and urban areas, nesting in trees to avoid predators. Gray squirrels eat a range of foods consuming roughly one and a half pounds of nuts and seeds a week. They also consume tree bark, tree buds, berries, and some types of fungi found in the forests. Gray Squirrel Habitat Squirrels utilize two types of nests: tree cavity dens and leaf nests called dreys. Leaf nests are usually used during summer and are found in the top fork of a tree or in the crotch of a limb. The number of active nests per squirrel is thought to be about three, depending on the density of squirrels in the area. Most squirrels are capable of constructing a nest in one day. If they have access, they will build nests in attics or structures. Once inside, these rodents will gnaw on electrical wiring in walls and attics causing shorts and possibly even fires. Gray Squirrel Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Squirrels do not hibernate and use their nests for resting and shelter, especially during the cold winter months. If you notice a squirrel’s nest on your property, do not attempt to remove it yourself. Squirrels may bite or attack if provoked, especially if their young are present. Squirrels... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/nuisance-wildlife/shrew/ Shrews in Long Island Shrews are among the world’s smallest mammals. Worldwide, there are over 250 species recognized, with over 30 species identified in the United States. Shrews primarily feed on insects, earthworms, slugs, and spiders and will also feed on small animals, seeds, roots, and other vegetable matter. Because of their small size, shrews lose body heat rapidly. In order to maintain constant body temperature, they have a high metabolic rate and consume food every three to four hours. In a 24-hour period, some species of shrews will consume three times their body weight. Typically shrews are born, live, and die within a year, but some may live just under two years. Shrew Habitat A shrew’s habitat depends on the species, but they are typically near structures, occasionally invading buildings. Often reusing tunnels made by moles and voles, they live in gardens and wooded areas where food supplies are abundant. They prefer to live in fields, marshy areas, and forests—wherever there is leaf litter or thick plant cover. Shrew Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Shrews do not have a considerable negative impact on humans and go about their lives unnoticed by most people. They occasionally become a nuisance when they live in close proximity to humans because of their aggressive nature. Shrews occasionally fall into window wells, attack pets, feed on stored foods, contaminate stored foods with feces and urine, and bite humans when improperly handled. Due to their hostile nature and ability to move fast, shrews are difficult to... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/pantry-pests/confused-flour-beetle/ Confused Flour Beetles in Long Island A number of beetles infest flour and grain-based products and are known as flour beetles. Of these species, the confused flour beetle and the red flour beetles are the most economically dangerous. The confused flour beetle occurs commonly in the northern part of the United States. This beetle is omnivorous, eating both plants and animals. Flour beetles are extremely important pests of flour, being the most commonly encountered pests in flour mills. They feed on grain dust and milled cereals, but are unable to attack sound and undamaged grain. Confused Flour Beetle Habitat The confused and red flour beetles live in the same environment and compete for resources. Flour beetles can be found not only inside infested grain products but in cracks and crevices where grain may have spilled. Flour beetles infest cereal, cake mix, cornmeal, crackers, and dry pet food, chocolate and nuts, and seeds (such as birdseed). Both adults and small, off-white larvae will be found in an infested food item. The adult beetles often wander away from the infested material and will be found inside pantries and cupboards or anywhere in the home. Confused Flour Beetle Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Confused flour beetles do not bite or spread disease, however, they give off a displeasing odor, and their presence encourages mold growth in grain. They are attracted to grain with high moisture content and can cause a grey tint to the grain they are infesting. Common signs of an infestation are... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/spiders/fishing-spider/ Fishing Spiders in Long Island Fishing spiders are large spiders and are similar to wolf spiders in size, shape, and coloration. These spiders get their name as they live near water and have been reported to catch small fish and aquatic insects. Fishing spiders are commonly found in wooded areas and may enter homes near waterfronts or wooded areas, wandering into garages, basements, and storage sheds. These spiders attract attention because they can walk across the surface of a pool or stream and when chased, will dive and remain underwater for a short while. Fishing Spider Habitat Fishing spiders are typically found near bodies of water, primarily around lakeside vegetation, boat docks, and other structures. In residential areas, they commonly live in and around pools and can infiltrate homes. Living close to wooded areas increases the chances of seeing or otherwise encountering fishing spiders. These spiders can climb trees, making their way onto roofs where they slip through crevices and unsealed windows. Fishing spiders may also enter through cracks in damaged foundations. Though they prefer to live outdoors, they may head inside seeking a place to hibernate over the winter. Fishing Spider Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Fishing spiders may be large and look menacing, however, their venom is not toxic to humans. They are not household pests, but for those who suffer from arachnophobia, the sight of one of these robust pests can be cause for alarm. If a fishing spider accidentally wanders into the garage or gets into the... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-10-09 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/beetles/varied-carpet-beetle/ Varied Carpet Beetles in Long Island The varied carpet beetle, which gets its name from the various colors on its back, is considered to be the most common carpet beetle in Long Island. Carpet beetles are small insects that eat carpet and other natural fibers. Carpet beetle larvae are usually the first to catch a homeowner’s eye, as they are frequently striped and are covered in bristles, causing them to appear furry. As these larvae mature, they will shed their “shells,” which is another common way that carpet beetle infestations are identified. Varied Carpet Beetle Habitat Outdoors, female beetles search out spider webs, bees, wasps, or bird nests as locations to lay their eggs. These nests and webs contain dead insects, beeswax, pollen, feathers, or other debris that can serve as larval food. Varied carpet beetles are present in many homes without being noticed. In small numbers, they can actually be beneficial to your home in the sense that they are good at breaking down old organic matter and “cleaning up” after other insects. Adults usually appear in spring or early summer; indoors, you'll often find them near windows. Varied Carpet Beetle Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Carpet beetles are scavengers. In homes, particularly large, old homes, this species commonly becomes entrenched in attics feeding on dead insect remains; it then moves down into the home to infest Oriental rugs, wall hangings, and wood-based wall-to-wall carpeting. The varied carpet beetle has been recorded feeding on a great variety of animal and... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/bees-wasps-hornets/mud-dauber/ Mud Daubers in Long Island Just as their name implies, mud daubers are solitary wasps that construct nests or brood chambers from mud. There are many species of mud daubers and they are commonly found throughout the United States. Besides its unique nest, one of the easiest ways to identify a mud dauber is by its thread-like waist separating its abdomen and thorax, which helps differentiate it from other types of wasps. Mud daubers are not aggressive and typically do not sting unless their nest is directly threatened. Mud Dauber Habitat Mud daubers live in nests constructed by the female population of the colony. Mud daubers build cylindrical nests that look much like an organ pipe. Nests consist of short mud tubes constructed side by side and are most often located in shaded areas like porch ceilings, under eaves, or in sheds and barns. The female mud dauber collects spiders, paralyzes them with her sting, and then places them inside mud chambers within the nest. She deposits an egg on top of one of the spiders in the chamber before sealing it off. The larval wasp hatches and feeds on the spiders provided, molting several times before pupating and transforming into an adult wasp. When nests appear to have round holes on the outside, this is an indication the wasps have emerged and the nest is inactive. Mud Dauber Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Mud daubers do not defend their nests and are rarely aggressive. These wasps are beneficial insects as... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/bees-wasps-hornets/paper-wasp/ Paper Wasps in Long Island There are over 22 species of paper wasps in the U. S. , and most of them are brownish in color with yellow markings. Often confused with yellowjackets, paper wasps are sometimes referred to as umbrella wasps, and are most easily identified by their nests. Paper wasp nests often look like an upside-down paper cone and typically hang from a horizontal surface in a shaded, protected location. Like other types of wasps, paper wasps feed on insects, spiders, and the like. Paper Wasp Habitat Paper wasp nests are known to look like upside-down umbrellas and have a papier-mȃché feel to them. Unlike yellow jackets, paper wasp nests are somewhat open and not completely covered. Nests can most often be found either on tree branches or under eaves, attic rafters, and porch ceilings. Because nests can be built directly on a home, these wasps have been known to make their way indoors through holes in attic vent screens or underneath shingles. Paper Wasp Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Similar to mud daubers, paper wasps are considered to be beneficial to the environment for keeping the insect population under control. They also assist in pollination by feeding on nectar. Paper wasps are considered aggressive and have been known to sting repeatedly when threatened. For this reason, it’s important to never disturb their nest. Stings can be extremely painful, which is why you should leave it up to a professional wasp control company to control paper wasp infestations in... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/bees-wasps-hornets/yellowjacket/ Yellowjackets in Long Island Found throughout the United States, yellowjackets are the most infamous wasps. These beneficial wasps live in colonies with thousands of individuals and would be a lesser threat to humans were it not for their opportunistic behavior of nesting in structural voids, attics, and cavities associated with landscaping features. Adult yellowjackets feed mainly on fruit juices and other sweet liquid materials, whereas their larvae are fed bits of soft-bodied insects like caterpillars and flies. These wasps are known to become more aggressive in the late fall and early fall months. Yellowjacket Habitat Yellowjackets can be divided into ground nesters, which frequently use old rodent burrows and aerial nesters. Above-ground nests are found among the leafy branches of trees and shrubs and also on structures. Occasionally, the nest may be constructed on the side of a building, in wall voids, under eaves, crawlspaces, and attics. The entrance of the nest is normally a hole located at the bottom. These aerial nesters don’t become scavengers in the fall, but they are extremely defensive when their nests are disturbed. Locating the nest, through observing flight patterns, is essential to eliminate them. Yellowjacket Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Yellowjackets are slow to sting unless their nest is threatened. However, yellowjacket stings pose a more serious threat to humans than bees, because a yellowjacket's stinger is not barbed like a honey bee, allowing it to sting repeatedly. Some individuals are more sensitive than others, due to allergic reactions, and should seek medical attention... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/bees-wasps-hornets/honey-bee/ Honey Bees in Long Island These bees are active pollinators that, true to name, produce honey. Their colonies can survive for years. Queen honey bees are slightly larger than male honey bees, also known as drones. They are found all over the nation and pollinate more than 100 types of crops. The two main types are Africanized honey bees and European honey bees. The latter is much more aggressive than the former. Honey bees will swarm when the colony becomes too large for its hive. Honey Bee Habitat Honey bees often build their nests in tree crevices, but will occasionally build nests in attics or chimneys. Honey bees are most visible in summer and late spring when new queens leave their old colonies along with thousands of workers to build new nests in tree hollows or crevices. At this time, large groups of bees can be seen swarming together to find a new nesting place. It takes a swarm approximately 24 hours to locate a new nesting site. While most swarms are harmless, certain species of bees, like the Africanized honey bee, are extremely aggressive and may attack unprovoked. Honey Bee Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Honey bees do sting, but can only sting once. Only female workers are capable of stinging and are not likely to sting when foraging for nectar and pollen in the backyard. Bee stings generally happen when these docile bees are provoked or accidentally crushed. The stinger of the honey bee, having barbs, will remain in... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/cockroaches/german-cockroach/ German Cockroaches in Long Island The German cockroach is distributed worldwide and is the most prevalent species in and around homes, apartments, supermarkets, food processing plants, and restaurants. Ships, especially cruise ships and naval vessels can also be heavily infested. These roaches prefer warm humid environments and infestations are frequently found in residential and commercial kitchen environments, and bathrooms. When infestations are large, they can spread to other parts of a building. This species reproduces the fastest of the common pest cockroaches—a single female and her offspring can produce over 30,000 offspring in a year. German Cockroach Habitat German cockroaches are found primarily in kitchens, bathrooms, or other areas where daily access to water is available. If sanitation is poor, the German cockroach can successfully expand its normal habitat to include all portions of a structure where adequate food, water, and shelter exist. German cockroaches prefer to hide in wooden and paper materials, as well as electrical equipment. These roaches can also be found hiding in cabinets, drawers, up under sinks, and inside heat-producing appliances like dishwashers, microwaves, and coffee makers. German Cockroach Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers German cockroaches are not known to bite humans, however, foraging cockroaches are vectors of disease, depositing germs or bacteria in areas they inhabit. German cockroaches can also cause allergic reactions due to the insects leaving fecal matter and cast skins around the home, causing skin rashes, watery eyes, sneezing, nasal congestion, and asthma. In addition to spreading disease, German cockroach infestations may cause... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/birds/pigeon/ Pigeons in Long Island Found throughout the United States, the feral pigeon is a year-round pest and adapts well to man-made environments. Feral pigeons are often the most troublesome bird pest for homeowners in urban areas, as well as in small rural communities. The abundance of shelter provided by the design of many homes and buildings assures that pigeons have ample places to roost, loaf, and nest. Pigeons deface homes and structures and more seriously, are known carriers of diseases such as cryptococcosis, toxoplasmosis, salmonella, food poisoning, and more. Pigeon Habitat In the wild, pigeons often live on or near large, rocky cliffs. In cities and towns, pigeons are dependent on humans to provide them with food, roosting, and nesting sites. These birds nest on window ledges, roofs, in air conditioning units, traffic lights, commercial signs, and under bridges. Although they prefer grain and seed, pigeons consume garbage, insects, bread, and other handouts from people. Wherever they nest, food and water are often in plentiful supply, but when it isn’t, the birds seek resources from nearby rural or undeveloped areas that are generally within their flight range. Pigeons can breed year-round, and peak mating seasons are spring and fall. Pigeon Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers The serious and constant public health problems feral pigeons create are unmatched by any other bird species. Pigeons are known to carry or transmit several diseases and their droppings and feathers can contaminate food destined for human consumption. Their droppings deface and accelerate the deterioration of... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/birds/house-sparrow/ House Sparrows in Long Island Sparrows are an invasive species found throughout the United States and are one of the most abundant songbird pests in the world. House sparrows are small birds that can create big issues. Both sparrows and their droppings can carry pathogens that are harmful to humans. Tough, adaptable, and aggressive, sparrows can survive in city neighborhoods and in rural areas, where it may evict native birds from their nests. These birds build messy nests and are largely dependent on humans for both food resources and nesting sites. House sparrows are implicated in the transmission of over 25 diseases to humans, pets, and livestock. House Sparrow Habitat House sparrows are especially attracted to man-made structures because they usually offer numerous safe spaces to build nests with many potential food options. Nests are composed of twigs, grass, paper, and string, and are built-in gutters, vents, soffits, lamp poles, on rafters, building ledges, and almost any conceivable elevated, sheltered spot. Their nests are often hot spots for bugs and parasites that can make their way into buildings. Also, in some areas, sparrow nests can create fire hazards. House Sparrow Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Sparrows love to stuff their nesting materials into tiny gaps – the perfect size is about 1 to 3 inches. This can include the framework of structures, letters of signs, corrugated overhangs, and even dryer vents. Around homes, gutters, and drainage pipes clogged with sparrow nests often back up, which can cause extensive water damage. Nests... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/spiders/house-spider/ House Spiders in Long Island The domestic or common house spider is the most commonly seen spider in North America. Most often encountered indoors, the house spider is a nuisance pest because of its webs more than the spider itself. A house spider's web is often called a cobweb and is made up of many crisscrossing strands of sticky silk. Cobwebs are generally found in corners of rooms and ceilings. A house spider is an excellent trapper, preying on any insect that is unfortunate enough to walk or fly into its sticky web. If their webs do not yield prey, the webs are abandoned and a new site is chosen. House Spider Habitat Common house spiders like living in quiet, undisturbed areas where moisture and food are available. They can usually be found in gardens, backyards, basements, attics, barns, sheds, and any other type of man-made structure. If left undisturbed, house spiders can live as long as seven years in the same web in places like attics, basements, and garages. When outside, female spiders die in the cold and males rarely live longer than a year. House Spider Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Domestic house spiders move quickly, are not aggressive, and will often retreat when confronted. If cornered with no possible escape, house spiders may bite, although documented cases of domestic spider bites are extremely rare. If bitten, the symptoms may include slight pain, swelling, and itching. House spiders do not cause any property damage and are actually beneficial as... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/spiders/orb-weaver-spider/ Orb-Weavers Spiders in Long Island If there was a poster child for spiders, it would probably be the orb weaver, which builds the familiar circular-shaped webs often found in gardens, fields, and forests. Orb weavers are found throughout the world, except for the Arctic and Antarctica. These arachnids are large, conspicuous, and many are very colorful. They spin elaborate webs in concentric circles in the garden and wait for nearby prey to become entangled. Orb weavers generally have poor vision and rely on web vibrations to locate and identify prey. Orb-Weaver Spider Habitat Like all spiders, orb weavers are carnivores, feeding primarily on insects and other small organisms that get trapped in their sticky webs. They are most abundant in summer, in garden areas, and around the home. Orb-weavers spin large, circular webs that can be as wide as six feet or more, often between buildings and shrubs. Homeowners may not even be aware of the spiders' presence unless they walk outside after dark and see the web in a lighted area or walk into the web in the dark. Often, the edge of an eave is used as upper support, with the bottom frame lines attached to a shrub or the ground. Orb-Weaver Spider Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Orb weavers can bite, but seldom do and their bite is not toxic to humans. Orb weavers are generally harmless and can be a nuisance when they build large webs in places inconvenient for humans. Occasionally, they will wander into a... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/spiders/wolf-spider/ Wolf Spiders in Long Island Wolf spiders are active hunters and cause the greatest concern when encountered in homes. These spiders have excellent vision, allowing them to see humans approaching them, at which point, they flee. Many wolf spiders are nocturnal and use a reflective structure to maximize vision at night. Shining a flashlight at ground level will often allow one to see the green eye shines of this spider reflected from 10-30 feet away, depending on the spider’s size. Wolf spiders are rarely pests, but they sometimes wander into houses, where their large size often frightens homeowners. Wolf Spider Habitat Wolf spiders are active hunters that patrol the ground for insects, small spiders, and similar prey. They do not use webs to capture prey and actively hunt in the open during the day and night, often living by the thousands in leaf litter and grassy areas. Some wolf spiders build small burrows and defend a territory, others are free-roaming. Because they are so numerous, and such voracious predators, wolf spiders are a very important part of any ecosystem in which they occur. Female spiders may sometimes be seen with their young riding on their backs until they are independent enough to go off on their own. Wolf Spider Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Wolf spiders can bite, but their bites are extremely rare. While they may be fast and aggressive when hunting their insect prey, they don't usually bite people unless they are provoked or mishandled. A wolf spider bite... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/termites/eastern-subterranean-termite/ Eastern Subterranean Termites in Long Island The eastern subterranean termite is a social insect and the most common and widely distributed termite in North America. Due to its wide distribution, it is considered the most economically important and damaging species in the U. S. Termites consume cellulose, the main structural component of plant cells. Any wood material in a home is a potential food source, but it may also damage non-wood material in search of food. Termites rarely show themselves in the open, and infestations can be difficult to detect until the damage becomes severe. Eastern Subterranean Termite Habitat Eastern subterranean termites live in the ground and feed on plant materials. In structures, they live in walls, basements, crawl spaces, and other damp areas. Termites swarm in the spring to find a mate. Winged termites are attracted to light and will swarm around doors and windows. After fluttering about for a short time, the termites break off their wings and pair off, becoming king and queen of a new termite colony. A common sign of termites is the presence of mud tubes, inside or outside of a home. Termites make these earth-colored tubes primarily as a protected runway from the earth to the wood they feed upon. Eastern Subterranean Termite Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Because termites consume cellulose, any wood material in a house is a potential food source. Termites are secretive, and when termite damage becomes evident, it is usually the result of a few years of infestation. The... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/%pest_cat%/common-water-snake/ Common Water Snakes in Long Island Found throughout Long Island, the common watersnake often basks on logs and rocks. It also lounges or hides in reservoirs and in the limestone rip-rap that lines the river’s shoreline. Feeding primarily on fish and amphibians, the common water snake prefers slow-moving fish. Once water snakes reach about 1. 5 feet in length, their food preference changes from fish to frogs and other larger animals like salamanders and toads. Common Water Snakes Habitat The species is common along major rivers, where it can often be found basking in tree limbs hanging over the water. Active day and night, common water snakes search for prey on the lake or river bottom, investigating under rocks, branches, and in crevices for hiding prey. They prefer warm, permanent, shallow water with access to basking locations such as rocky ledges, logs, and bridge piers. They can be found in both urban and rural settings. In the fall they may be found away from water as they travel to hibernation spots. Common Water Snakes Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Though non-venomous, common water snakes are known for their readiness to bite, so care should be taken when interacting with them. When threatened, common water snakes will expand their jaw and flatten their head to make them look larger. They will strike and bite, as well as release musk if captured. If you are having an issue with common water snakes on your property, it is best to consult a professional pest... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/bees-wasps-hornets/cicada-killer-wasp/ Cicada Killer Wasps in Long Island Cicada killer wasps are one of the largest wasp species in North America. Female wasps often attack cicadas in flight, sting them until they become paralyzed, and take them back to the nest to feed her larvae. Cicada killers are found throughout the U. S. , Mexico, and parts of Central America. These wasps dig holes or burrows, preferably in soft, sandy, and well-drained soil. They may be found on sloped terrains, in flower beds, along patio edges or sidewalks, as well as in the yard. Cicada Killer Wasp Habitat Cicada killer wasps appear as adults in late June or July and are mostly seen visiting flowers or digging burrows in sandy or light soil. The cicada killer wasp nests in the ground near cicada populations. Frequently, dozens of their burrows are located in lawns and on golf courses. A pile of soil often surrounds the entrance. The male wasp flies guard duty over the lawn, chasing away potential predators. Cicada Killer Wasp Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Unlike other wasp species, cicada killers are not very aggressive and rarely sting humans or pets unless they are disturbed. Males are aggressive and territorial but do not possess a stinger. A sting from a cicada killer wasp can be painful and their venom may cause an allergic reaction in some people. Cicada killers can be a nuisance if they are found on your property. Female wasps dig fairly large burrows, making quite a large mess near... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-10-09 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/beetles/asian-lady-beetle/ Asian Lady Beetles in Long Island The multicolored Asian lady beetle was introduced into the United States from Asia to control aphids, scale, and other crop pests from 1978 to 1981. It is now widely distributed across the nation. Asian lady beetles may enter homes in large numbers and have become consistent overwintering pests in buildings and homes. Asian Lady Beetle Habitat This species is a voracious predator of crop pests and produces several generations per year. Their tendency to aggregate and ability to enter structures often causes this insect to become a significant structural pest. Hundreds and even thousands of these beetles have been found in and on homes. Asian lady beetles can be found in attics, wall voids, on siding, inside closets, and may be attracted to light. Asian Lady Beetle Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Although Asian lady beetles may bite, their bite does not seriously injure humans or spread diseases. If handled or crushed, they will emit a foul odor and leave a stain. In fall, beetles seek out crevices and protected areas around homes to spend the winter, congregating in attics, wall cavities, cracks around door frames, and within soffits and wall voids. If a large number of beetles gain access inside of homes, they can stain drapery and clothing. Asian lady beetles cannot survive sub-freezing temperatures, although they can survive within homes and buildings that provide adequate warmth and humidity. If you are dealing with an infestation, always contact a licensed beetle technician. Need help... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-10-09 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/beetles/black-carpet-beetle/ Black Carpet Beetles in Long Island The black carpet beetle is the most common and most destructive carpet beetle in Long Island. It destroys any household products that contain keratin, a principal protein found in animal hair and feathers. Plant materials such as cereals and grains, as well as synthetic fabrics not derived from animal matter, may also be attacked. Additionally, dried insect specimens, such as those found in insect collections, are also destroyed. Black Carpet Beetle Habitat Outdoors, female beetles search out spider webs, bees, wasps, or bird nests as locations to lay their eggs. These nests and webs contain dead insects, beeswax, pollen, feathers, or other debris that can serve as larval food. Black carpet beetle adults are attracted to flowers, and in the spring, they may fly into homes and buildings. The larvae may wander from the nest into the attic and other parts of the house. Very often, black carpet beetles are brought into the house with old woolens and carpeting. Sometimes, black carpet beetles are introduced into homes or buildings in stored products such as dried dog food. Black Beetle Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Black carpet beetles are scavengers. In homes, the black carpet beetle is a pest in kitchen cupboards, as well as in woolen carpets or clothing storage areas. Infestations can stem from bird nests, animal carcasses, or accumulations of dead insects such as flies or lady beetles in attics or basements. Stored products like cereal, pet food, birdseed, are other possible sources... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-10-09 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/beetles/cigarette-beetle/ Cigarette Beetles in Long Island The cigarette beetle is found throughout the world and the United States. It is an important pest of tobacco where the eggs are laid in the folds of newly harvested, baled, or bundled leaves in storage, but never on live plants in the field. Five or six generations per year may occur in warm localities, and in the U. S. , three generations can occur per year. They can also be found in food storage areas and are known to chew through books, manuscripts, furniture fabrics, and other organic materials. Cigarette Beetle Habitat Cigarette beetle adults are strong fliers and will fly on late afternoons and dull cloudy days. These beetles are active all year long and will infest storage areas or warehouses that contain dried tobacco. In the southern parts of the country, cigarette beetles may fly to homes from nearby warehouses and cause a re-infestation. They will also invade homes to feed on cereal, flour, and other stored products that are a staple of most pantries. Cigarette Beetle Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Cigarette beetles are not considered harmful to humans or pets. Their habit of infesting people’s food and pet food makes them a nuisance pest. This cosmopolitan species will infest dried vegetable materials including tobacco wherever it is stored and is the most destructive pest in stored tobacco. It is also a very serious pest of books, where it may cause injury to the binding and the leaves. If an infestation is... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-10-09 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/beetles/elm-leaf-beetle/ Elm Leaf Beetles in Long Island Several types of beetles damage elm leaves, but one invasive pest is a severe threat to elm trees. Found throughout the United States and Canada, Elm leaf beetles are common insects that chew the leaves of elm trees, especially favoring Siberian and English elms. Adult elm leaf beetles chew holes in elm leaves and larvae feed on the leaf surface, producing injuries that make leaves look lacy. Elm leaf beetles often spend winter in and around buildings and can be an important nuisance pest in homes, as they often enter attics, crawlspaces, and living areas seeking winter shelter. Elm Leaf Beetle Habitat Adult elm leaf beetles overwinter in protected locations, often in houses or other structures. In homes, they find protective locations to overwinter, like attics and crawl spaces, and then emerge in the spring. Adults move to elm trees where they lay their eggs in groups of 5 to 25 on the underside of leaves. Elm leaf beetles feed upon all elms, and larvae skeletonize the leaf surface, causing damaged foliage to turn brown to whitish. Elm leaf beetles, when abundant, can entirely defoliate large elm trees, which eliminates summer shade and reduces the aesthetic value of trees. Elm Leaf Carpet Beetle Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Elm leaf beetles are nuisance pests as they do not bite or sting and they do not reproduce or feed indoors during the winter. They do not harm people or the wooden components found in homes. The... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-10-09 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/beetles/emerald-ash-borer/ Emerald Ash Borers in Long Island The emerald ash borer is a highly destructive wood-boring beetle that feeds on the tissue of ash trees. Since its discovery, the beetle has killed hundreds of millions of ash trees in North America. The emerald ash borer spreads through the transportation of wood, especially firewood. Once the emerald ash borer has been detected within 10-15 miles of an area, the trees within that area may be at risk. Emerald Ash Borer Beetle Habitat The emerald ash borer lives in any area with a population of ash trees, including black ash, green ash, and white ash. Adult emerald ash borers fly to ash trees to eat and lay eggs. Larvae feed on the nutrient-rich tissue just under the ash tree’s bark, forming S-shaped lines in the tree. This feeding process disrupts the trees’ ability to move food and water from their roots to their leaves, eventually killing the tree. As a new adult exits the tree, it chews a D-shaped hole in the bark. Emerald Ash Borer Beetle Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Emerald ash borer beetles do not bite or sting, however, since the discovery of this beetle in the United States in 2002, it is estimated that millions of ash trees have been killed. These beetles are mostly transported by human activity, moving firewood or other wood products, and nursery stock infested with beetles. Signs of infestation are usually noticed first in the top canopy and include thinning and yellowing leaves, D-shaped holes... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-10-09 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/beetles/japanese-beetle/ Japanese Beetles in Long Island The Japanese beetle is a widespread and destructive pest of lawns, landscape, and ornamental plants in the United States. Japanese beetles are a serious pest of turf, trees, shrubs, flowers, and crops. Although adults will feed on over 300 species of plants, grubs feed mainly on the roots of grasses. Difficult and expensive to control, these beetles feed on grassroots, damaging turf, golf courses, and pastures. Japanese beetles were first found in the U. S. in 1916 in New Jersey and have since spread throughout various states. Japanese Beetle Habitat Japanese beetles have a wide host of plants they can feed on and can live anywhere there is sufficient foliage. They are not limited to forests or grasslands and often live on farms, cities, and even your garden. These beetles are especially common on roses, beans, grapes, and raspberries. Japanese beetles have a voracious appetite and are most active on warm sunny days, feeding in groups under direct sun. Adult beetles can fly, allowing them to easily move throughout a homeowner’s landscape. These pests begin eating at the top of plants and work their way down. Japanese Beetle Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers While Japanese beetles do have powerful chewing mouthparts for munching on leaves, they do not bite people. However, the estimated damage and cost of controlling Japanese beetles in the U. S. is over $460 million each year! Due to their distinctive feeding pattern, damage caused by Japanese beetles can be easy to recognize.... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/fleas-ticks-mites/american-dog-tick/ American Dog Ticks in Long Island The American dog tick is distributed east of the Rocky Mountains and in a few western states such as California, Idaho, and Washington. As its name suggests, the American dog tick is most commonly found on dogs, but it will readily attack larger animals, such as mice, deer, cattle, horses, and even humans. Pets and humans may contract diseases like Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and Tularemia from a single tick bite. American dog ticks can survive for up to 2 years at any given stage if no host is found. American Dog Tick Habitat American dog ticks are found predominantly in areas with little or no tree cover, such as grassy fields and scrubland, as well as along walkways and trails. Residential areas containing overgrown shrubs, weeds, tall grass, and clutter attract the rodents that are hosts for immature ticks. Adult ticks climb onto a grass blade or other low vegetation, cling to it with their third pair of legs, and then wave their legs when a potential host approaches. As the host brushes against the vegetation, the tick will grab onto the passing animal or human. American Dog Tick Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers The highest risk of being bitten occurs during spring and summer, and adult females are most likely to bite humans. Nymphs and adults can transmit diseases such as Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and Tularemia. To avoid being bitten, apply an insect repellent containing an EPA-registered ingredient, such as DEET. Also,... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/fleas-ticks-mites/chigger-mite/ Chigger Mites in Long Island Chigger mites or redbugs infest people and animals during the summer months, causing intense itching and irritation. In the United States, chiggers are mostly found in the southeast, south, and midwest. They are most active from early spring to early autumn, until the first frost. Chigger larvae do all the damage and do not burrow into the skin, as it is commonly believed; rather they attach on the surface of the skin or at the rim of a hair follicle. Chigger Mite Habitat Chigger mites prefer damp, grassy, and wooded areas, especially at the edges of forests. They can be found near lakes and streams, and even on your lawn. Adult chiggers may often be seen as large brilliantly red-colored mites crawling over lawns and pavements. Adult chiggers spend winter underground and will deposit eggs during the first warm days of spring. The adults soon die and the eggs hatch into chiggers, which crawl about and eventually make contact with people or other hosts. Chigger Mite Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Chigger mites usually hide in thick brush, grass, parks and gardens, grassy fields, and in moist areas around rivers or lakes. All of these areas are popular with humans for recreation, hiking, and camping. After coming into contact with flesh, they will settle down and begin to feed. Most chiggers will attack around the ankles or under the knees, although some go higher up to attack the crotch and armpit areas. Once bitten, the body... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/fleas-ticks-mites/clover-mite/ Clover Mites in Long Island Clover mites are considered a nuisance pest, invading structures by the thousands, primarily in the spring and autumn. Clover mites are distributed worldwide and found throughout the United States. Where once clover mites were considered an occasional invader, they are now a serious pest due to the housing boom associated with suburban sprawl and installation of well-fertilized lawns growing close to the foundations of houses. Clover Mite Habitat Clover mites overwinter chiefly in the egg stage, under bark, in cracks in fence posts, under sheathing of buildings, in cracks in the foundation, or in dry, protected sites. Winter eggs begin to hatch very early in spring, and one generation is completed during the spring and early summer. Clover mites are sun-seekers and will gather on sunny southern and eastern exposures of homes. When clover mites have thoroughly infiltrated a building, they can be an extreme nuisance to the homeowners. Clover mites will look like dark red specks crawling around siding, doors, windows, drapes, curtains, and furniture. Clover Mite Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Clover mites are pests not because they bite or cause disease, but simply because they can invade a structure in unbelievable numbers. In 1954, one single bedroom was estimated to have 250,000 mites crawling on the floor! When crushed, clover mites leave a red stain that is not blood, it's just their natural color. Since clover mites are so small, homeowners may not even recognize them in their house until they have spread.... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/fleas-ticks-mites/lone-star-tick/ Lone Star Ticks in Long Island The lone star tick is distributed from central Texas, eastern Oklahoma, north to Missouri, and eastward in a broad belt across the southeastern United States. Along the Atlantic coast, its distribution extends northward to coastal areas of New Jersey and New York. Bites from the lone star tick are painless and commonly go unnoticed, remaining attached to their host for as long as seven days until it is fully engorged with blood. While it is not a factor in Lyme disease, the lone star tick does transmit bacteria that can cause several types of illnesses. Lone Star Tick Habitat Lone star ticks are found in wooded areas and fields and are more common around homes and buildings in secluded or rural areas. Adults are known to feed on large mammals, especially cattle and white-tailed deer. It is an ectoparasite of a wide range of domestic mammals like cattle, horses, goats, sheep, cats and dogs, and poultry. Humans are also commonly bitten by all active stages. This species is rarely found living indoors, and if found inside, it will generally be discovered on dogs or cats. Lone Star Tick Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers The lone star tick is known to bite humans, and although they do not transmit Lyme disease, a bite from the lone star tick can cause people to develop an allergy to red meat, including beef and pork. This specific allergy is related to a carbohydrate called alpha-gal and is best diagnosed... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/fleas-ticks-mites/spider-mite/ Spider Mites in Long Island Spider mites are the most common mite pests and among the most universal of all garden and farm pests. Mites pests feed on houseplants, fruit trees, vines, berries, vegetables, and ornamental plants. Although related to insects, mites aren’t actually insects but members of the arachnid class along with spiders and ticks. Spider mites are tiny eight-legged animals closely related to spiders and are important pests of ornamental trees, shrubs, and bedding plants. Under favorable conditions, spider mites can build up rapidly and seriously threaten plant health. Spider Mite Habitat Spider mites may feed and reproduce all year on plants that retain their green leaves throughout the winter, such as indoor houseplants. In colder areas and on deciduous trees that drop their leaves. They begin feeding and laying eggs when warm weather returns in spring. Spider mites feed on plant leaves by piercing leaf tissues and sucking the green liquid that oozes out. Leaves appear bronzed after the green color is lost from many tiny feeding spots. Heavily infested leaves and branches can become covered with an almost invisible webbing. Spider Mite Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Spider mites reproduce rapidly in dry, hot weather and are most common from June through September. Mites cause damage by sucking cell contents from leaves. At first, spider mite damage will appear as small yellow or brown spots on the leaves of plants. If the plant is heavily infested, the plant's health will suffer and it may develop completely yellow... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/fleas-ticks-mites/springtail/ Springtails in Long Island Springtails are tiny and occur in various shapes and sizes, however, they all have an appendage, called a furcula that is tucked up under their abdomen. When a springtail is disturbed, it releases the furcula, which propels the insect through the air and away from danger. These minute insects occasionally invade homes and are particularly prominent in basements, bathrooms, and kitchens. Most reports of hundreds or thousands of tiny, dark jumping insects can be correctly diagnosed as springtails. Springtail Habitat Springtails sometimes alarm homeowners by appearing in large numbers in moist indoor areas such as kitchen sinks, bathtubs, and in the soil of houseplants. They may also be found outdoors in swimming pools, moist landscaped areas or vegetable gardens, and on the surface of mud puddles. They usually appear in the spring and early summer, but can be found year-round in moist environments. Springtail infestations are usually associated with dampness, organic debris, and mold. Springtail Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Since springtails jump when disturbed, they are sometimes confused with fleas. However, springtails do not bite humans or pets, nor do they spread disease or damage household furnishings. Mainly a nuisance pest, springtails can become a problem in newly constructed buildings because of damp building materials and wet plaster. As the building dries, the springtails will die off or leave. They can also be a nuisance around swimming pools when they fall in and drown in large numbers, often coating the pool surface. Although unsightly in the... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/black-fly/ Black Flies in Long Island Black flies are small, blood-sucking insects, found in many parts of the United States and Canada. Common names for this pest include buffalo gnats and turkey gnats, and they are known to fly around people's heads, occasionally getting into eyes and ears, as well as crawling into the hair. Only the females are blood feeders and will readily bite humans and animals. Black flies may sometimes occur in enormous numbers in the late spring and early summer, particularly in the more northern latitudes. Black Fly Habitat Black flies breed exclusively in running water, and larvae and pupae develop in flowing, typically non-polluted water, with a high level of dissolved oxygen. The immature stages of black flies develop in oxygenated water sources, therefore adults are usually associated with slow-moving streams, creeks, or rivers where the immature stages develop. Flowing water does not necessarily imply white water rapids, but water must be moving. Water in lakes and ponds that are not flowing is unsuitable for black fly development. Black Fly Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Black flies can be annoying biting pests, but none are known to transmit diseases to humans in the U. S. The bites of black flies cause different reactions in humans, ranging from a small puncture wound where the original blood meal was taken to a swelling that can be the size of a golf ball. Reactions to black fly bites are collectively known as "black fly fever” and include headache, nausea, fever, and... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/blow-fly/ Blow Flies in Long Island Blow flies are one of the most common flies found around dead animals. They prefer highly unsanitary habitats, and because of this, they may be vectors of disease pathogens, such as dysentery. These flies are distinguished by their bright metallic appearance and are abundant around commercial, institutional, industrial, and residential buildings when they are located near recycling centers, garbage dumps, slaughter-houses, and meat processing plants. Blow flies can pick up faint traces of odor of decay and can fly up to 12 miles in search of a suitable carcass to lay their eggs. Blow Fly Habitat Blow flies thrive best in weather that is warm and humid. They normally lay their eggs on meat, fish, or dead animals, but will also lay eggs in decomposing organic matter, like garbage, animal manure, decaying vegetables, grass clippings, and poorly managed compost piles. Under ideal temperatures, blow flies can develop from egg to adult in as little as 7 days. Many homeowners have witnessed this behavior as a mass emergence of maggots crawling from their backyard trash cans when kitchen waste placed in these trash cans was not sealed in a plastic trash bag. Blow Fly Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Blow flies do not bite or sting. They are, however, strongly attracted to human foods and garbage, making cooking outdoors difficult when they are present. As with house flies, they may be involved in the transmission of disease agents acquired from garbage or animal feces and subsequently deposited... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/cluster-fly/ Cluster Flies in Long Island Cluster flies are a member of the blowfly family and are widely distributed throughout the United States, except for the states bordering Mexico. These insects enter houses in the fall to hibernate and often gather in secluded and sometimes inaccessible places, such as wall cavities, attics, and false ceilings. In the spring, cluster flies become active and in attempting to leave their hibernation site, they commonly end up inside the living space of homes and buildings where they become a nuisance. In early spring, they are sluggish but do not fly about noisily in buildings like other flies. Cluster Fly Habitat Cluster flies normally live outdoors where they frequent flowers and ripe fruits. With the approach of cool weather, they enter homes and buildings to overwinter. Here they hide, often in clusters, in nooks and dark corners, underneath clothing in closets, beneath curtains, in wall voids, and behind pictures and furniture. The increasing warmth of spring days induces activity, and flies may emerge from hibernation, inside, rather than outside the home. Once inside, the flies crawl sluggishly over the walls and often fall into food on the table. Cluster Fly Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Unlike typical blowflies, cluster flies are not believed to be a health hazard because they are not attracted to human foods. However, their presence can be annoying, as they tend to travel in huge swarms of thousands of flies. In the fall, as adult flies seek shelter to spend the winter... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/crane-fly/ Crane Flies in Long Island Crane flies are found all around the world in temperate or tropical climates and are often confused with mosquitoes, as they look like super-sized versions of those blood-sucking insects. Although their long bodies and thin legs resemble giant mosquitoes, crane flies do not bite people. In fact, they are sometimes called mosquito hawks or mosquito wasps, even though they don’t prey on mosquitoes. The larvae of this species can be damaging to turf and lawns as they feed on the roots, crowns, and above-ground portions of grass plants. Crane Fly Habitat Crane flies can be found in lawns, turf, compost piles, and in moist soil around ponds and streams. Adult crane flies emerge from the soil beneath turfgrass and other grassy areas in late summer and fall. Females lay eggs that hatch into small, brown, wormlike larvae commonly referred to as "leatherjackets". The leatherjackets feed on the roots and crowns of clover and grass plants during the fall and then spend the winter as larvae in the soil. Around mid-May, they enter a nonfeeding pupal stage and remain just below the soil surface. In late summer, pupae wriggle to the surface and emerge as adults. Crane Fly Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Adult crane flies do not bite or spread diseases, although crane flies in lawn grass can be problematic. Crane fly larvae feed on crowns and grass blades on warm nights, damaging lawns and turf. Damage often becomes noticeable in March and April and appears... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/drain-fly/ Drain Flies in Long Island Drain flies, also called moth flies, belong to the family Psychodidae and get their name because they often breed in drains. They are found throughout the United States and can become an annoyance in homes, sometimes appearing suddenly from sinks and bathtub drains. They can breed in tremendous numbers in sewage treatment plants and then be carried away by the wind to nearby buildings, where they can crawl through fly screens. Drain Fly Habitat Drain flies develop in muck or gelatinous material that accumulates in sewage disposal beds, septic tanks, moist compost, or dirty garbage containers. They may also emerge from drains of sinks or bathtubs, from tree holes, rain barrels, moist organic solids, or bird nests that have accumulations of fecal material. Drain flies gather, mate, and lay eggs in moisture or standing water. The slimy film that forms in sewers and drains is a favorite breeding spot. Inside structures, they are strongly attracted to light and will be found on glass windows, doors, lamps, and indoor lighting. Drain Fly Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Drain flies do not bite people or animals or do damage to structures or plants. However, because these flies originate from filthy sources, they have the potential of being mechanical vectors of diseases. Populations of these insects can become a nuisance in homes, and their presence is almost always linked to a clogged drain. In residential homes, the most common breeding sites are bathroom drains. Drain flies are weak fliers... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/fruit-fly/ Fruit Flies in Long Island Over 177 species of fruit flies occur in North America, north of Mexico, and eight species are believed to be common in the United States. The scientific name, Drosophila, means “lover of dew” probably suggesting these flies require moist environments to reproduce. They are known as fruit, vinegar, or pomace flies and are often confused with other small flies found in structures. Fruit flies are vectors of disease, consuming bacteria and sugar from decaying foods and can often be seen near bowls of fruit, glasses of wine, garbage, and trash cans. Fruit Fly Habitat Fruit flies are small flies that can pass through ordinary insect screens and are often found in homes, restaurants, fruit markets, bars, salad bars, and any other place where fruits and vegetables are found. They will often enter structures from nearby dumpsters, trash receptacles, and damp compost piles where fruits and vegetables have been disposed of. Fruit flies lay large numbers of eggs on fruit, and the hatched larvae feed on the fruit. Fruit flies are active during periods of warm weather; single generations may develop in less than a week when temperatures are between 80° and 89°F. Fruit Fly Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Unlike some insects, fruit flies do not sting or bite. They are primarily nuisance pests, however, results of a recent study showed that fruit flies are capable of transferring E. coli, Salmonella, and Listeria to surfaces and relocating E. coli from a contaminated source to fresh, ready-to-eat... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/fungus-gnat/ Fungus Gnats in Long Island Fungus gnats are small, delicate-looking insects with long wings and spindly legs. Occasionally they can become a nuisance in residential and commercial buildings where ferns and other house plants containing soil rich in organic matter serve as a breeding source. Their larvae primarily feed on fungi and organic matter in the soil, but they also chew roots and can be a problem in greenhouses, nurseries, and interior plantscapes. Adults are attracted to lights and are often first noticed at windows or light fixtures. Fungus Gnat Habitat Outdoors, fungus gnats are attracted to moisture and problems may occur in areas where the landscape has been overwatered or in low-lying areas that remain extremely wet following heavy rainfall. Fungus gnats are attracted to light, and indoors, they can be seen hovering near windows. However, compared to house flies, fungus gnats are weak flyers and generally remain near potted plants. They can also be found in high moisture areas in the home including, kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and crawl spaces. Fungus Gnat Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Adult fungus gnats do not bite or damage plants, their presence is primarily considered a nuisance. Fungus gnat larvae do all the damage, and when present in large numbers, they can damage roots and stunt plant growth, particularly in seedlings and young plants. Significant root damage and even plant death has been observed in interior plantscapes and in houseplants when high populations were associated with moist, organically rich soil. Therefore, a houseplant... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/garbage-fly/ Garbage Flies in Long Island Also known as house flies, garbage flies can be easily identified by the four long stripes on top of their middle body region. They do not have the ability to bite and instead have a mouth more suited for sponging up liquid food. Female flies are typically larger than the male and have a visibly wider distance between their red-colored eyes. Garbage flies have gray and slightly yellow bodies as well as an upward bend in one of the wing veins. Garbage Fly Habitat Garbage flies are generally found in the greatest numbers during the hotter summer months. Eggs are laid in warm, moist, organic materials such as manure, garbage, lawn clippings, decaying vegetables, and fruits, or soils contaminated with any of these materials. Under optimal summertime conditions, house flies can complete their development from egg to adult in as little as 7 days. Garbage Fly Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Garbage flies are considered a nuisance due to their close proximity to humans. In some cases, these flies can carry a variety of harmful diseases to humans and animals alike. Because they breed and feed in waste, they have the ability to pick up bacteria, viruses, and fungi and transfer or spread them by contaminating the food and water they come into contact with. In serious cases, people have experienced food poisoning and even tuberculosis linked to garbage fly infestations. Always contact a professional fly control expert for help with garbage flies. Need help with... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/gnat-midge-non-biting/ Gnats in Long Island Gnats and midges are common names for a large number of small, non-biting flies found throughout the United States. These flies typically breed in aquatic environments and can emerge from these sources in high numbers. Most species that affect homes and buildings are nighttime fliers that are attracted to the light on buildings. People are often troubled by the presence of these insects as they confuse them with mosquitoes. However, unlike mosquitoes, midges and gnats lack a biting needle, and because of this, they cannot spread disease. Gnat Habitat Gnats and midges are most common in spring and summer and are important pests around lakes, rivers, and aquatic areas where they lay their eggs. Although they are weak fliers, they can be carried long distances by downwind, migrating from nearby ponds, lakes, or rivers to swimming pools, homes, and buildings. Many gnats and midges are attracted to light and can be a nuisance, landing on people or entering homes or businesses. These tiny flies do not feed and only live long enough to mate, lay eggs, and die. Gnat Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Although they do not bite, during peak emergence, immense numbers of gnats and midges move into adjacent residential or industrial areas causing annoyance and damage. Lake-front homes, sporting facilities, recreational areas, and businesses are often blanketed by these insects. Midges and gnats fly in swarms that look like clouds and can completely cover houses, vehicles, patio furniture, and plants in the landscape. Where... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/horse-fly/ Horse Flies in Long Island Horse flies and deer flies are large, heavy-bodied insects that are persistent pests of wildlife, livestock, and humans. Their blood-sucking habits also raise concerns about the possible transmission of disease agents. They are notorious pests of horses, mules, cattle, hogs, dogs, and other mammals, including humans. Deer flies, which commonly bite humans, are smaller with dark bands across the wings and colored eyes similar to those of horse flies. An attack by a few of these persistent flies can make outdoor work and recreation miserable. Horse Fly Habitat Horse flies and deer flies can be found near aquatic habitats that support larval development. Most horse flies and deer flies are found in brushy or low-lying pasture areas near creeks, streams, or tanks that provide damp soils in which the immature stages develop. Natural environments include freshwater wetlands, saltwater marshes, and open areas within forests. They survive by burrowing down into the sand or gravel substrate of the water body they inhabit. Horse Fly Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Female horse flies and deer flies can and will bite people, and the painful bites may occur on any part of the body. The bite often results in visible bleeding wounds and general first aid-type skin creams may help to relieve the pain from bites. In rare instances, there may be allergic reactions involving hives and wheezing. These flies are significant livestock pests with their painful and persistent biting behavior. Heavy attacks can lead to reductions in weight... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/house-fly/ House Flies in Long Island Found on every continent except Antarctica, the house fly is one of the most familiar of all insects. House flies are generally found in the greatest numbers during the hotter summer months and generally live in close proximity to humans and animals. These pests breed in animal wastes and decaying organic material, including animal corpses and food waste from which they can pick up bacteria and viruses that may cause human disease. House flies defecate almost every time they land, contaminating food, with the potential to spread disease. House Fly Habitat In rural areas, manure piles are often the main source of house flies, and in urban areas, piles of fermenting lawn clippings commonly generate large numbers of flies. Animal manure is a favorite breeding medium for flies with the most important sites being horse manure, human excrement, cow manure, fermenting vegetable refuse, dumpsters and refuse containers, and household garbage. Some species of flies can live and breed in recycling containers, and fly problems are common in recycling centers. House Fly Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Although house flies do not bite, they are capable of transferring more than 100 different pathogens, including salmonellosis, typhoid, and tuberculosis. Pathogenic organisms are picked up by flies from garbage, sewage, and other sources of filth, and then transferred on their mouthparts, through their vomitus, feces, and contaminated external body parts to human and animal food. They can carry a wide range of germs from filthy breeding sites to the... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/lovebug/ Lovebugs in Long Island Lovebugs get their name as they are often seen in pairs or "stuck" together when mating. Closely related to gnats, mosquitos, and sand flies, lovebugs are social insects that swarm in large numbers. Their flights generally occur in late spring and summer, just after the females emerge. During this time, lovebugs become a nuisance as they enter homes, splatter on windshields of vehicles, and land in the mouths of joggers and cyclists outdoors. Lovebug Habitat Like many insects, lovebugs enjoy dark, wet, and humid habitats. When looking for a suitable site to lay her eggs, female lovebugs will seek out moist areas that contain food like rotting grass, mulch, or compost beds. If a structure is located close to an area that is known for lovebug infestations, it increases the likelihood that insects will enter the home. If excess moisture exists in damp areas of homes like basements or storage rooms, it may encourage the type of vegetation that lovebugs like to feed on, attracting these nuisance pests. Lovebug Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers While lovebugs do not bite humans or pets, they can cause a great deal of damage and odor to affected homes and cars. A lovebug’s acidic body chemistry can wreak havoc on the paint of vehicles. Their fatty tissue can eat through a car's finish when left in the sun. As they perish in large numbers on windshields, hoods, and radiator grates, after a few hours, they can become almost impossible to remove... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-08-21 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/flies/no-see-um-midge-biting/ No-See-Ums in Long Island No-see-ums and biting midges are a significant human pest and are found throughout the United States, primarily in coastal areas and farming operations. These small blood-sucking gnats are known to feed on warm-blooded vertebrates and are often confused with black flies because of their similar bites. Female midges are the ones who bite, needing the protein from blood to begin producing eggs. Biting midges will attack any kind of mammals such as birds, reptiles, amphibians, and livestock. Their bite is out of proportion to their size, and the Native Americans in Maine very appropriately designated these tormentors as “no-see-ums”. No-See-Um Habitat The natural habitats of no-see-ums and biting midges vary by species. These flies breed in coastal salt marshes, mud-caked flatlands, freshwater areas, and damp holes in trees. Breeding places are often in densely shaded areas at the edge of grass marshes. Their favorite locations are near decaying leaves that are protected from the heat of the sun. Adult midges prefer to lay their eggs in wet organic matter, such as mud around settling ponds on livestock operations, decaying leaf litter, manure, and other vegetation. No-See-Um Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Biting midges and no-see-ums are extremely annoying, but none are known to transmit diseases to humans in the United States. A common observation upon experiencing a bite from this insect is that something is biting, but the person suffering cannot see what it is. While their bites can cause welts and intense itching, these small insects... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/common-insects/camel-cricket/ Camel Crickets in Long Island The name camel cricket is derived from the rounded hump on the insect's back that resembles the hump of a camel. Sometimes referred to as “cave crickets” or “land shrimp,” they are more closely related to katydids than true crickets and do not chirp. Camel crickets are widespread in the United States and often move inside dwellings during hot, dry weather and have been observed feeding on clothes and lace curtains. Due to their size and quick jumping ability, camel crickets can be quite disturbing to homeowners. Camel Cricket Habitat Camel crickets prefer damp, dark environments. Outside, camel crickets are found living in leaf litter, under logs or stones, in tree holes, in hollow logs, or stacks of firewood and other cool, damp areas. They may move into homes during the fall when seeking a place to overwinter. Camel crickets may commonly be found in crawl spaces or basements, occasionally in large numbers; however, they may also be found in living areas, garages, and storage rooms. Camel crickets can also be found in considerable numbers in attics above two-story homes. Camel Cricket Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Camel crickets do not spread disease and do not bite, however, they can become a nuisance if they gain entry into a home, damaging houseplants, clothing, and fabrics. Camel crickets are nocturnal and will be observed by the homeowner in the evening when the lights are turned on in a dark room. When threatened, camel crickets leap when frightened,... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/nuisance-wildlife/groundhog/ Groundhogs in Long Island Groundhogs, also called woodchucks, are large rodents and are widely distributed across the United States. Groundhogs are among the few animals that are true hibernators, fattening up in spring and summer and hibernating in burrows during the winter months. Groundhogs are very common in rural areas but are also frequently seen in suburban neighborhoods. The groundhog is actually a member of the squirrel family, and its front feet are very powerful tools used for digging burrows. Groundhogs can become a real pest for homeowners as they burrow under vegetable and flower gardens, sheds, and outdoor structures. Groundhog Habitat These large rodents are herbivores, and a groundhog's diet can include fruit, plants, tree bark, and grasses. Groundhogs dig burrows near vegetation that can be as deep as five feet and generally have more than one entrance. The entrance hole is made larger as the animal grows and will eventually be a foot wide with a mound of soil around it. Burrow entrances are usually well-hidden and can be difficult to find. Groundhogs often hide these holes by digging them underneath vegetation or loosely covering them up with leaves and sticks. The network of tunnels can cover an area underground ranging from 8 to 66 feet and is used for several years. Groundhog Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Groundhogs are docile creatures, rarely come in contact with people, and pose no major public health hazards. They are considered nuisance pests because they are capable of causing extensive damage to... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/nuisance-wildlife/mole/ Moles in Long Island Moles are small insect-eating mammals and are widespread across the United States. Contrary to popular belief, moles are not part of the rodent family and are highly specialized digging machines. They spend most of their time underground and some are even semi-aquatic. Although their presence is well known by their recognizable mounds, they are rarely seen. Moles cause significant damage through their burrowing activity, which dislodges plants and dries out their roots. In lawns, the resulting mounds and ridges are unsightly and disfiguring. Mole Habitat Moles prefer wooded areas as their natural habitat, but they are also comfortable in residential yards and farm fields. Moles live almost entirely underground in a vast network of interconnecting tunnels. Active year-round, moles are particularly busy in spring and fall, frequently creating shallow tunnels just below the surface where they capture worms, insects, and other invertebrates. Moles are beneficial in that a typical 5-6 ounce mole can eat as much as 50 pounds of insect pests and grubs in a year! During rainy periods, molehills are abundant as earthworms move toward the surface. Mole Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Since moles are seldom present above ground and rarely come into contact with people, they are not considered to be a physical threat to humans. Contrary to popular opinion, moles will not eat vegetation in residential and rural landscapes. However, their surface tunnels can disturb plant roots, which can cause distress. In lawns, molehills make walking and mowing difficult, sometimes damaging the... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/nuisance-wildlife/opossum/ Opossums in Long Island There are at least 103 species of opossum, but the Virginia opossum is the single species found in the United States. About the size of a large house cat, opossums are considered beneficial mammals because they eat a variety of insects and snakes, causing many property owners to consider them beneficial. Opossums are nomadic, seldom staying long in any one place, and utilizing abandoned burrows or crawl spaces. They may sometimes become a nuisance to homeowners when foraging for food and shelter. Opossum Habitat Possums do not dig dens or burrows underground, however, they will live in those that have been abandoned. They will wait for another animal to abandon their home before moving in, and actually prefer to live in trees for the protection they provide. They may enter attics, walls, and crawl spaces of homes if they have access. The presence of an unusual and foul odor in your home may point to there being a possum living in your walls Opossum Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Opossums pose no major threat to humans or pets. Their teeth are not meant for attacking or even preying on animals; their teeth are good for chewing and holding. They do not attack humans and instead will play “dead” when danger is perceived. Opossums don’t dig holes, destroy gardens, bite, sting, or stay in one place for very long. However, opossums can carry various parasites and diseases. They are not the cleanest of animals and carry a strong... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/nuisance-wildlife/raccoon/ Raccoons in Long Island Raccoons are stocky mammals and are distinctively marked with a black “mask” over their eyes. Found throughout most of the United States, and into northern South America. raccoons are nomadic, but only within a marked territory. They do not dig or make nests but prefer to mark locations, remembering them as available shelters. Raccoons are active year-round but may take cover in dens during periods of severe winter weather. For homeowners, raccoons are notorious “backyard bandits”, rummaging through garbage cans, popping kiddie pools, and generally causing mayhem. Raccoon Habitat Raccoons prefer wooded areas near water and natural habitats, sleeping in abandoned burrows, and the crooks of trees. In urban settings, raccoons will make their homes in empty crawl spaces, underneath porches, and within attics. Raccoons roam around rural or urban areas, finding food where they can and scouting new locations. They will eat almost anything, including insects, fruit, vegetables, and small animals, if necessary. Raccoons are nocturnal and notorious for raiding garbage cans during overnight hours. Raccoons are attracted to gardens or homes because they offer a food resource and potential den sites. Raccoon Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers While not all raccoons have rabies, raccoons, in general, are major hosts of rabies in the U. S. , especially in the eastern part of the country where their populations are increasing. Pets should be properly vaccinated to mitigate this threat. Raccoons will kill poultry, destroy bird nests, and damage gardens or crops. They can destroy a home’s... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/nuisance-wildlife/red-squirrel/ Red Squirrels in Long Island The red squirrel is often known as the pine squirrel, chickaree, or North American red squirrel. Compared to other squirrels in the region, the red squirrel is much smaller. They are usually slightly larger than a chipmunk. It typically feeds on conifer cones They are considered granivores but may feed on other items. They have also been observed feeding on spruce buds, needles, mushrooms, flowers, and berries. Red Squirrel Habitat Red squirrels are widely dispersed throughout the North American continent, typically wherever conifer trees are found. They build their nests mostly out of grass and construct nests in tree branches. They very rarely nest below the ground. Usually, red squirrels have several nests in their respective territories. Red squirrels have been reported nesting in homes using insulation as their material. Red Squirrel Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Red squirrels are known to be one of the more territorial species of squirrels. They are very active throughout the entire year. Female red squirrels give birth in the spring with three to seven offspring in each litter. Red squirrels prefer nesting in trees outside your home but, as mentioned previously, they have been known to make their way indoors. If they get inside, they could use your insulation as the material for their nesting. If you are having an issue with red squirrels, it is best to consult a professional wildlife control company for removal. Need help with control?

Skunks are found throughout the United States and are known to produce an oily, yellow sulfur-alcohol compound that contains sulfuric acid. This pungent liquid is stored in two separate scent glands located on each side of the anus and can be squirted accurately at targets as far as 6 to 10 feet away as a self-defense mechanism. The secretion is acrid enough to cause nausea and can produce severe burning and temporary blindness if it strikes the eyes. Skunk Habitat Skunks construct dens in burrows and will often use abandoned burrows dug by ground squirrels, foxes, or coyotes, enlarging them if necessary. In urban settings, they den under decks, porches, or beneath buildings. If other suitable dens are unavailable, skunks will burrow and construct dens. Skunks do not hibernate; but in regions with colder weather, they may congregate in communal dens during the winter. Skunks are attracted to residential areas by the availability of food, water, and shelter. Skunk Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Skunks are primarily nocturnal animals and their activity around buildings may go unnoticed until one takes up occupancy beneath a porch, deck, slab foundation, or has an encounter with another animal, such as a dog. A pet that exhibits an offensive smell, is an indicator that a skunk may be nearby. Skunks have been found infected... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-03-18 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/beetles/drugstore-beetle/ Drugstore Beetles in Long Island The drugstore beetle, also known as the bread beetle or biscuit beetle, is a common insect that infests stored foods, seeds, and other materials. This beetle acquired its name from its tendency to eat herbs and plants which were often used in making many drugs, including poisonous substances such as belladonna and strychnine. The larvae of the drugstore beetle can cause considerable harm as they chew their way through food, herbs, and plants, leaving holes, damaging products, and making the food unusable. Drugstore Beetle Habitat The drugstore beetle thrives in warmer climates but can be found worldwide, especially in climate-controlled structures. Female drugstore beetles lay their eggs in almost any dry organic substance. Seasonings, grains, pet foods, books, wooden objects, and even aluminum foil, are popular items infested by these beetles. Adult drugstore beetles can fly, bore through wood, and can be identified by their rapid skittering movement. Drugstore Beetle Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Drugstore beetles do not bite people and are not known to spread disease. They are considered unwanted pests due to the problems they cause for homeowners and businesses. It is in the larval stage that beetles do the most damage as they live, eat, and excrete waste within the products they've infested. Since the female drugstore beetle can lay more than 100 eggs at a time, she can make entire batches of food products unsalable. This means a drugstore beetle infestation in a home pantry or business can cause considerable monetary... --- - Published: 2025-03-18 - Modified: 2025-10-09 - URL: https://arrowexterminating.com/pest-info/pantry-pests/indian-meal-moth/ Indian Meal Moths in Long Island The Indian meal moth is a global pest and received its common name because it feeds on the meal made from Indian corn or maize. The Indian meal moth is easy to identify due to its characteristic wing pattern where the rear half of the wings is distinctly copper or bronze-colored. These moths are general feeders upon grain and grain products, dried fruits, seeds, graham crackers, nuts, powdered milk chocolate, and candies. Home infestations can be traced back to nearly any food source but commonly originate in dried pet food or birdseed. Indian Meal Moth Habitat The Indian meal moth is the most common food-infesting moth found in homes, grocery stores, and any place where dried pet foods are produced or stored. Adults do not eat, and larvae feed constantly on grain products, spinning large amounts of silken webbing over the food sources. Since it prefers the coarser grades of flour, it is the most common insect found in packages of whole wheat, graham flour, and cornmeal. Nuts are also a common breeding source, especially the nut caches of squirrels in attics and chimneys. Indian Meal Moth Behaviors, Threats, or Dangers Though Indian meal moths do not bite or pose any serious health risks, they are a nuisance in the home as they infest grain and stored pantry products. The larvae do considerable damage as they contaminate food and deposit silken webbing on food products. The waste from contamination is greater than the amount... --- ---
