Bobby Bugs provides licensed pest control in Pelham Bay, Bronx (ZIP 10461), for apartments, co-ops, and houses, with free written quotes and written guarantees on every job. Pelham Bay is about fifty minutes from our base in Oyster Bay over the Throgs Neck Bridge, and we run it with Throgs Neck and City Island on the same route.
Pelham Bay sits in a box of highways, the Pelham Parkway to the north, I-95 to the east, the Bruckner to the south and the Hutchinson River Parkway to the west, with the Country Club enclave across I-95, and it's the end of the 6 train. Most of the land was bought by Thomas Pell in 1654, and the park and City Island were annexed by the city in 1895. About 26,600 people live across Pelham Bay, Country Club and City Island, in apartment buildings along the Bruckner and Pelham Parkway and attached and detached single-family houses on the streets between. The commercial blocks along Westchester Avenue, Buhre Avenue, Middletown Road and Crosby Avenue are restaurants, delis and storefronts with apartments above them.
The park is the other half. Pelham Bay Park, the largest park in New York City, wraps the neighborhood's northeast side with woods, salt marsh, the Hutchinson River and Eastchester Bay, and the homes and buildings along the park edge get what comes out of it: raccoons and opossums in garages and under decks, squirrels in attics, Norway rats moving from the marsh and the park's edges into basements, and mosquitoes off the wetlands. The apartment buildings carry the same building-wide German cockroach and mouse patterns as the rest of the Bronx, unit to unit through shared walls, pipe chases and trash rooms, and the attached houses on the side streets have the sills and slab additions that termites find.
Bobby Bugs serves all of Pelham Bay and Country Club, plus neighboring Throgs Neck, Morris Park, Co-op City and City Island.
Usually raccoons at night and squirrels during the day, with opossums under decks and sheds. The largest park in the city is a lot of woods and marsh for wildlife, and the homes along its edge are the first warm place the animals look in fall. Nesting removal includes sealing the entry with wire mesh and carries a 6-month written guarantee.
Yes. Apartment buildings and co-ops along the Bruckner, Pelham Parkway and Westchester Avenue are the biggest part of our Pelham Bay work, mostly for German cockroaches and mice that move through shared walls, pipe chases and trash rooms. We treat the unit and the adjoining voids, work with management on building-wide treatment, and roach and mouse work carries a 60-day written guarantee.
Because the park's marsh edges, the Hutchinson River and Eastchester Bay give Norway rats water, cover and burrow sites year round, and the restaurants along Westchester and Buhre Avenues give them food. Rat work near the park means interior trapping, sealing entry points along the foundation, and locked exterior bait stations that we service, with a 60-day written guarantee.
