Top pests in New Milford homes and apartments
Bed bugs
- Itchy bites in lines or clusters
- Tiny dark spots on mattress seams
- Shed skins or live bugs in bed frames
Bed bugs ride in on luggage, used furniture and visitors. They don't care how clean a home is, and they spread between units in apartment buildings.
Mice
- Droppings in drawers and under the sink
- Chewed food packages
- Scratching in walls at night
Mice move indoors as the weather cools, through gaps around pipes, garage doors and foundations. They breed fast once they're in.
Cockroaches
- Small brown roaches in kitchen cabinets
- Specks behind the fridge and stove
- Big dark roaches near basement drains
German roaches live in kitchens and spread through apartment buildings; larger roaches come up from drains and damp basements.
Bed bugs in New Milford: signs and what to do first
Bed bugs are one of the most common reasons New Milford residents look us up. They hide in mattress seams, box springs, bed frames, headboards, couches and the cracks near where people sleep, and come out at night to feed.
Signs to look for:
- Itchy bites, often in a line or small cluster, on arms, legs, neck or back.
- Small rust or black spots on sheets and mattress seams.
- Tiny pale eggs and shed skins in seams and corners.
- Live bugs: flat, oval and reddish brown, about the size of an apple seed.
What to do before we come: don't move to another bedroom or the couch — bed bugs follow you and spread. Don't throw out furniture yet, and skip foggers and store sprays, which scatter them into walls. Wash and dry bedding on high heat, and bag clothing you need to keep separate. Our bed bug prep checklist walks you through it.

Bed bug heat treatment vs. Aprehend
We offer both, and we'll recommend the one that fits your home after we inspect:
| Heat treatment | Aprehend | |
|---|---|---|
| How it works | Rooms are heated to a temperature that kills bed bugs and eggs | A fungal spore treatment (EPA Reg. No. 73079-15) applied where bed bugs travel; bugs that cross it pick it up |
| How fast | Kills bed bugs exposed to the heat during the treatment | Label: kills bed bugs within 7 days of contact |
| After treatment | No lasting barrier once rooms cool down | Label: up to 3 months of continued control |
| Good fit for | Heavy infestations, lots of clutter or furniture | Lighter cases, sensitive settings, follow-up protection |
| Prep | More prep: some items removed or protected from heat | Less prep in most cases |
Read more on heat vs. other bed bug treatments. In apartment buildings, units next to, above and below an infested unit should be inspected too. Landlords, see bed bugs in apartments.
Mice and rats once the weather turns
Find the way in
We check garage door corners, pipe and AC line openings, foundation cracks, vents and the gaps under siding.
Remove them
Trapping or baiting placed where it's safe for kids and pets.
Seal it
Entry points closed with stainless steel mesh that mice and rats can't chew through.
90 days of coverage
Our mouse service includes 90 days of coverage with unlimited free service calls in that time.
Rats showing up in a bathroom or basement with no outside gap? We do rodent smoke testing of drain lines to find a broken pipe, which a licensed plumber then repairs. Nearby: mouse exterminator in Bergenfield.
Roaches in apartments and two-family homes
New Milford has a mix of single-family houses, two-family homes and apartment complexes. In shared buildings, German roaches move through walls, pipe chases and trash rooms, so a problem in one kitchen often comes from next door.
Our roach method: gel bait placed in the cracks, hinges and gaps where roaches hide, an insect growth regulator that stops them from breeding, and a follow-up visit to check and re-treat. No fogging the whole apartment. Roach treatment carries a 90-day warranty.
To help it work: stop using sprays before the visit, clear under the sinks, keep food sealed, and get rid of extra cardboard. In a building, treating the surrounding units at the same time gives the best result. See our apartment building pest control page for owners and managers.
Mosquitoes, ticks and stinging insects near the water
New Milford sits along the Hackensack River, with parks, brooks and plenty of tree-lined yards. That's lovely in summer, and it also means more mosquitoes, ticks and wasps.
- Mosquitoes: they breed in standing water — clogged gutters, buckets, planters and tarps. Our yard treatments target the shady spots where they rest. Mosquito treatment starts from $95 plus tax.
- Ticks and fleas: ticks wait in tall grass and leaf litter along yard edges. For fleas, every pet needs vet treatment first; then the home and yard are treated together. See flea and tick control.
- Wasps and yellow jackets: nests under eaves, in shrubs and in the ground. We remove them; honey bees are relocated with a beekeeper. See bee and wasp removal.

New Milford Pest Control Questions
Do you provide pest control in New Milford, NJ?
Yes. Silver Bullet Pest Control serves New Milford and all of Bergen County from our base in Garfield. We treat bed bugs, mice, rats, roaches, ants, wasps, ticks, fleas, mosquitoes, termites and wildlife in homes, apartments and businesses. Same-day visits are often available. Call or text 973-510-2585.
How do I know if I have bed bugs?
Look for itchy bites in lines or clusters, small dark spots on mattress seams and sheets, shed skins, and flat reddish-brown bugs about the size of an apple seed. Check seams, box springs, headboards and couch cushions. Text a photo to 973-510-2585 and we'll confirm.
Which bed bug treatment is better, heat or Aprehend?
It depends on the home. Heat kills bed bugs and eggs exposed during the treatment and suits heavy infestations. Aprehend's label says it kills bed bugs within 7 days and gives up to 3 months of control, and it usually needs less prep. We recommend one after inspecting.
Should I throw out my mattress if I have bed bugs?
Usually not. Mattresses can be treated, and throwing one out can spread bed bugs through the building as it's carried out. Wait until after the inspection; if you do replace furniture later, wrap or mark it so nobody takes it home.
Can bed bugs spread between apartments?
Yes. They travel through walls, outlets, pipe gaps and hallways. In an apartment building, the units next to, above and below an infested unit should be inspected. Landlords and tenants should communicate early so treatment can be coordinated.
What does your mouse service include?
Trapping or baiting where it's safe, sealing entry points with stainless steel mesh, and 90 days of coverage with unlimited free service calls in that time. If mice show up again during those 90 days, call and we come back.
How do you get rid of roaches in an apartment?
We use gel bait in the cracks where roaches hide, an insect growth regulator to stop breeding, and a follow-up visit. Roach treatment carries a 90-day warranty. Treating neighboring units at the same time works best in shared buildings.
How much does pest control cost in New Milford?
Prices depend on the pest, the size of the home or building, how established the problem is and how many visits are needed. Quotes are free. Mosquito treatment starts from $95 plus tax; other services are quoted after we see the problem.
Are you licensed?
Yes. Silver Bullet Pest Control holds NJ License 90568B, is licensed by the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife for wildlife work, and has over 15 years of experience and 4.9 stars on Google.
