Pest Control in Jericho, NY

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

Bobby Bugs provides licensed pest control in Jericho, NY (ZIP 11753), with free written quotes and written guarantees on every job. Jericho is about ten minutes from our base in Oyster Bay, so same-day and next-day appointments are typical.

Jericho grew up fast in the 1950s and 1960s, when the old Underhill farmland was sold off for subdivisions, and most of the hamlet is still ranches, split-levels, and colonials from that era. A lot of those homes have been expanded or rebuilt since, and that is where a surprising number of pest problems start: additions and second-story rebuilds leave seams where new framing meets old, and mice and carpenter ants find those seams before the homeowner does.

The north side of Jericho backs up to the wooded estate country of Brookville, Upper Brookville, and Muttontown, so wildlife, carpenter ants, and hornets are steady work on the lots with heavy tree cover. The south side, toward the Jericho Turnpike corridor and Westbury, has more restaurants and commercial buildings, and the homes nearest them see more rodent activity. Termites are a real risk across the whole hamlet because of the age of the original construction.

Bobby Bugs serves all of Jericho and the surrounding communities of Brookville, Upper Brookville, Old Brookville, Muttontown, and Westbury.

Jericho pest questions

I had an addition put on my Jericho house and now I have mice. Why?

Additions create gaps where new framing meets the original house, and those seams, along with new utility penetrations and the crawl space or slab edge under the addition, are exactly where mice get in. It is one of the most common mouse calls we get in Jericho. We find and seal those entry points with steel mesh as part of every mouse job, and the work carries a 60-day written guarantee.

Are carpenter ants common in Jericho?

Yes, especially on the north side of Jericho where lots have mature oaks and maples and back onto the woods toward Brookville and Muttontown. Carpenter ants nest in trees and move into deck framing, window trim, and any wood that stays damp. Seeing large black ants indoors in late winter usually means a colony is already in the house. Carpenter ant treatment carries a 6-month written guarantee.

Should I get a termite inspection on a 1950s Jericho home?

Yes, and especially before buying or selling. Most of Jericho's original homes are 60 to 70 years old, and subterranean termites reach the framing through foundation cracks and slab edges. A termite inspection is a flat fee quoted in writing, and full treatment carries a written guarantee of 1 to 2 years depending on the treatment.
