Pest control across Passaic County: two very different halves
Passaic County is long and narrow, and the pests change as you drive north on Route 23 or Route 287.
The southern county — Clifton, Passaic, Paterson, Prospect Park, Haledon, Hawthorne, Totowa, Woodland Park and Little Falls — is dense and older. There are many two- and three-families, brick apartment buildings, row-style homes, busy commercial streets and restaurants. Here the everyday calls are mice and rats, German and oriental roaches, bed bugs in multi-unit buildings, and termites in old sill plates along the Passaic River. Paterson's Great Falls area and the river towns also see rats moving after heavy rain.
The northern county — Wayne, Pompton Lakes, Wanaque, Ringwood, Bloomingdale and West Milford — is far more wooded, with lakes, reservoirs and state parks such as Ringwood State Park, the Wanaque Reservoir and Greenwood Lake. Homes are mostly single-family with yards and woods behind them. Calls lean toward wildlife (squirrels, raccoons, bats), ticks and mosquitoes, carpenter ants, stinging insects, and mice coming in from the woods every fall.
Because we're based in Garfield, the southern towns are close by — Clifton and Passaic are right across the river. For the northern towns, visits are usually scheduled ahead and same-day service is sometimes possible.
The most common pests in Passaic County homes
Mice and rats
- Scratching in walls and ceilings
- Droppings in kitchens and basements
- Rat burrows by sheds and trash
Rodents are the number-one call in the county, from mice in Clifton two-families to rats near Paterson's commercial streets. We remove them and seal entry points; mouse service includes 90 days of coverage with unlimited free service calls.
Roaches and bed bugs
- Small brown roaches in kitchens
- Large roaches in basements
- Bites and spots on sheets
Roaches and bed bugs spread easily in multi-unit buildings. Our roach treatment uses gel bait, an insect growth regulator and a follow-up visit, with a 90-day warranty. For bed bugs we offer heat treatment and Aprehend.
Squirrels, raccoons and bats
- Noise in the attic
- Chewed soffit or fascia
- Bats seen at dusk
Wooded north-county towns and older south-county roofs both see attic wildlife. We're licensed by the NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife, use one-way exclusion, and repair chewed soffits, fascia and trim ourselves.

Commercial pest control and apartment buildings in Passaic County
Passaic County has a lot of restaurants, food stores, warehouses and multi-family buildings — especially in Paterson, Passaic, Clifton and along Route 46 and Route 23. Pests in these places spread between units or come in with deliveries, so a one-time spray rarely holds.
- Scheduled service around business hours, with written records of each visit for health inspections.
- Rodent stations outside, monitors inside, and door and dock checks for gaps.
- Building-wide plans for apartment owners: the units around the problem, the basement, trash rooms and pipe chases.
- Pre-demolition rodent baiting for building projects.
