Professional Pests Control
Oakland is a Bergen County borough with a strong connection to outdoor recreation. Surrounded by lakes, trails, and forests, it’s more spacious than other nearby cities but suburban at its core. Pests thrive in the local vegetation, but infestations inside homes and buildings are also common.

Oakland Is Bound by Beauty & Connected to Nature
Oakland is a northwestern Bergen County borough that stands apart in the area for its rocky terrain, hilly woodlands, gorgeous scenery, and staggered layout. It’s firmly placed in the middle of one of Mother Earth’s masterpieces, surrounded by glistening lakes and reservoirs and the majestic Ramapo Mountain State Forest. This appeals to the outdoor lover in everyone; there’s ample opportunity to stretch your legs, cast a line, or take a sunset hike.
Born into boroughhood in 1902, the town lacks the extensive history of other New Jersey cities, but it’s rooted in similar traditions: farming, ironworks, and agriculture. Blossoming as a residential community and commuter-friendly neighborhood, it expanded as transportation entered the mainstream. Now, it carefully blends its past with the present day, tethered to traditions while embracing modern amenities. Locals are tight-knit, active, and connected to nature.
Misunderstood Menaces and Aggressive Stingers
New Jersey is full of arachnids, insects, and rodents, and Oakland is no exception. Pests can be found here year-round, often entering homes and buildings in search of food and heat.
Spiders are creepy pests and often misunderstood. While some can be venomous, most are harmless (and good for pest control around your house). They prefer dark, undisturbed places like attics, basements, and window wells, and range in size from teeny tiny to sell-your-house humongous.
Stink bugs are a smelly species that releases a strong odor when feeling threatened. They also release odor when crushed (that’ll teach you not to squash them!). Although they’re not dangerous to humans, as they don’t spread disease like ticks or mosquitoes, they are a major nuisance indoors, particularly in autumn when they relocate from your front yard to your living room walls.
Yellow jackets are large and aggressive wasps with painful stings. Unlike bees, they don’t lose their stingers when they get all stabby, which means they can sting until they tire. They build nests underground, in structures, or inside wall voids, and they’re highly defensive; they’ll attack at any perception of threat.
Pennsylvania wood roaches don’t typically invade Oakland homes like their cockroach cousins (but it can happen). They don’t reproduce indoors, which keeps them on the outside looking in. Most infestations can occur in leaf litter, wood piles, and mulch. While they don’t seem to stalk lightbulbs the way moths do, they do like light, and an illuminated pile of firewood can increase the odds of attracting the whole gang.
Crickets are good luck charms, until they take over your garage. Only male crickets chirp, doing so to attract mates, ward off threats, or ensure you don’t get a good night’s rest before your big meeting. They’re attracted to moisture, warmth, and light, and can cause significant damage to fabrics, books, and plants.
