Bobby Bugs provides licensed pest control in Port Washington, NY (ZIP 11050), with free written quotes and written guarantees on every job. Port Washington is about twenty five minutes from our base in Oyster Bay, and we serve the whole Cow Neck peninsula.
Port Washington sits on a peninsula with Manhasset Bay on one side and Hempstead Harbor on the other, so water is never far from any house here. About 16,700 people live in roughly 6,300 homes, and the housing runs from Victorians and prewar colonials near the train station and Main Street, to waterfront condos and co-ops in Manorhaven and along the bay, to the estates of Sands Point. Two shorelines, marinas, the town dock, and waterfront restaurants keep rats established year round, and homes within a few blocks of either shore see far more rodent activity than the rest of Nassau County.
The older housing near the harbor has the county's classic problems with wood and moisture: carpenter ants in porches and window frames, termites in original sills and foundations, and mice in fieldstone basements every fall. The hills above town were sand mines a century ago and are now wooded parkland and golf course, and the properties bordering them and the Sands Point preserve see raccoons and squirrels in attics.
Bobby Bugs serves all of Port Washington and the villages of Sands Point, Baxter Estates, Manorhaven, Flower Hill, Port Washington North, and Plandome Manor.
Because the peninsula has water on two sides, and Manhasset Bay, Hempstead Harbor, the marinas, and the waterfront restaurants give Norway rats shelter and food year round. Homes near either shoreline, the town dock, and Main Street see the most activity. Rat work here usually means interior trapping, sealing entry points along the foundation, and locked exterior bait stations that we service. It carries a 60-day written guarantee.
Yes. Waterfront condos and co-ops in Manorhaven and along the bay are a regular part of our Port Washington work, mostly for mice, rats, and cockroaches. Apartment and condo jobs are quoted at a flat rate over the phone, and mouse, rat, and cockroach treatments each carry a 60-day written guarantee.
Yes. Much of Port Washington's housing is prewar, and older homes near the water combine the two things termites need most: original wood sills and constant moisture. A termite inspection is a flat fee quoted in writing, and if treatment is needed it carries a written guarantee of 1 to 2 years depending on the treatment.
