Pest Control in Commack, NY

Reviewed by William "Willy" Vizcarrondo, NYS DEC Certified Commercial Pesticide Applicator C1825832. Updated September 23, 2026.

Bobby Bugs provides licensed pest control in Commack, NY (ZIP 11725), with free written quotes and written guarantees on every job. Commack is about thirty minutes from our base in Oyster Bay, straight out the Northern State or Jericho Turnpike.

Commack is a big hamlet, 36,536 people across 12.25 square miles, and it's split down the middle between the Town of Huntington and the Town of Smithtown, so the same house on one side of a street can be in a different town than its neighbor. It was farmland for most of its history. The Secatogue called it Winnecomac, "pleasant lands," the Methodist church went up in 1789 and is the oldest Methodist church building in New York State, and the Harned Brothers sawmill has been running since the 1840s. The farms are gone now, replaced by close to 11,900 housing units, mostly single-family colonials, ranches and splits with about 3.1 people per household, which is a lot of kitchens, garages and finished basements for mice to work through when the weather turns in October.

Four highways cut through the hamlet, the Long Island Expressway, the Northern State, the Sunken Meadow Parkway and Jericho Turnpike, and the retail along Jericho Turnpike and Commack Road is where the rat and German cockroach pressure sits, behind the restaurants and shopping centers and in the apartments and condos near them. The residential streets away from the turnpike are the classic central Suffolk mix: mature oaks and wooded buffers that feed carpenter ants, hornet nests high in the trees every summer, and the older wood-frame homes that give subterranean termites a sill plate to reach. Homes backing the wooded parcels along the parkways see the most squirrels and raccoons.

Bobby Bugs serves all of Commack, both the Huntington and Smithtown sides, plus neighboring Smithtown, Dix Hills, East Northport, Hauppauge, Kings Park and Brentwood.

Commack pest questions

Does it matter whether my Commack house is on the Huntington or Smithtown side?

Not for pest control. Bobby Bugs treats homes on both sides of the town line the same way, and the pests don't know the difference either. The only thing the split changes is which town you call for permits and garbage pickup. Every Commack job starts with a free written quote and carries our written guarantee.

Why do I get big black ants in my Commack kitchen every spring?

Because carpenter ants nest in the mature trees and wooded buffers that run through Commack, and by spring a satellite colony has usually found damp wood in the house, most often around a bathroom, a deck ledger or a window frame. Large black ants indoors in late winter or early spring mean the nest is in the house, not outside. Carpenter ant treatment includes a free estimate and a 6-month written guarantee.

Do you handle hornet nests in tall trees in Commack?

Yes. Bald-faced hornets build their gray paper nests high in the oaks and maples that line most Commack streets, and by August the nests are the size of a basketball. We treat the nest directly rather than spraying from the ground and hoping, and wasp and hornet work carries a 6-month written guarantee.
