Bobby Bugs provides licensed pest control in Oceanside, NY (ZIP 11572), with free written quotes and written guarantees on every job. Oceanside is about thirty five minutes from our base in Oyster Bay.
Oceanside is a South Shore hamlet of about 32,600 people, one of the densest in Nassau County, and most of it was swamp and marsh before it was filled and built up between the early 1900s and the late 1970s. The town came to look like Levittown: capes, ranches, and splits on small lots, block after block, with attached garages and finished basements. That history is the pest story. Land that used to be marsh stays wet underneath, and the low-lying blocks near the canals, Reynolds Channel, and the Marine Nature Study Area get Norway rats along the bulkheads, American cockroaches up from drains and sewer lines, and moisture pests in every basement.
The higher, drier blocks up toward Rockville Centre and Baldwin get the same October mice as every postwar neighborhood on Long Island. Long Beach Road, the main commercial strip, keeps rats fed behind the restaurants and shopping centers, and the marsh edges push raccoons, opossums, and hornets into the yards that border them.
Bobby Bugs serves all of Oceanside and neighboring Rockville Centre, Baldwin, East Rockaway, Island Park, and Lynbrook.
Because much of Oceanside was marsh, and the canals, Reynolds Channel, and the Marine Nature Study Area give Norway rats water and burrow sites year round, while Long Beach Road's restaurants give them food. Rat work here means interior trapping, sealing entry points along the foundation, and locked exterior bait stations that we service, with a 60-day written guarantee.
American cockroaches, which come up from sewer lines, floor drains, and the wet ground under the low-lying parts of Oceanside. They get treated at the drains and entry points, which is different from a German roach kitchen job. Cockroach treatment carries a 60-day written guarantee.
Usually the next day, often the same day. For most pests we can quote over the phone and schedule on the same call. Call (516) 509-6001 with the pest and the type of home.
