Pest Control in Brooklyn Heights, Brooklyn, NY

## Common Pests in Brooklyn Heights ### Mice and Rats House mice and Norway rats are the most-reported pest problem throughout Brooklyn Heights. Proximity to Brooklyn Bridge Park and older building foundations drive rodent pressure. Norway rats burrow along building perimeters; house mice squeeze through openings as small as a dime. ### German Cockroaches The Montague Street corridor and older multi-unit buildings sustain German cockroach pressure. These roaches move through plumbing chases between units. ### Bed Bugs Brooklyn Heights has high residential turnover. In attached brownstones, active infestations can migrate through wall voids to neighboring units. ### Carpenter Ants The neighborhood's brownstone and wood-frame row houses contain older structural wood with moisture damage. Look for frass near window frames, baseboards, and exterior trim. ## Seasonal Activity This Spring May brings active carpenter ants, termite swarmers in brownstones (late April through early June), and mosquito breeding near Brooklyn Bridge Park. ## Service Areas We serve Brooklyn Heights (ZIP 11201), including Remsen, Pierrepont, Montague, Henry, Hicks, Columbia Heights, Clark, Orange, and Cranberry Streets.
