Pest Control in Roslyn, NY

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

Bobby Bugs provides licensed pest control in Roslyn, NY (ZIP 11576), including Roslyn Heights, Roslyn Harbor, Roslyn Estates, and East Hills, with free written quotes and written guarantees on every job. Roslyn is about twenty minutes from our base in Oyster Bay.

The village of Roslyn sits at the head of Hempstead Harbor, in a valley between steep hills, with Gerry Park and the Roslyn duck pond in the middle of town. Gerry Park was built on what used to be a swamp, and the low center of the village is still the wet, moisture-heavy part of town: rats along the harbor and the pond, moisture pests in basements, and carpenter ants in the old wood. The village was settled in 1643, and the historic district has some of the oldest wood-frame houses in Nassau County, which means termites and carpenter ants in original sills, porches, and clapboard.

Up the hills, the rest of the 11576 ZIP is different. Roslyn Heights is mostly 1950s splits and ranches with attached garages that give mice their way in every fall. East Hills and Roslyn Estates are larger homes on wooded lots, and the tree cover around the Nassau County Museum of Art grounds in Roslyn Harbor pushes raccoons, squirrels, and hornets onto the properties that border it.

Bobby Bugs serves all of the Roslyn area: Roslyn, Roslyn Heights, Roslyn Harbor, Roslyn Estates, East Hills, Flower Hill, and Greenvale.

Roslyn pest questions

Are historic homes in Roslyn village more prone to termites?

Yes. The historic district's wood-frame houses, some dating to the 1700s and 1800s, have original sills, porches, and clapboard sitting close to damp ground at the bottom of the valley, which is the combination subterranean termites need. Mud tubes on the foundation and swarmers indoors in spring are the usual signs. A termite inspection is a flat fee, and treatment carries a written guarantee of 1 to 2 years depending on the treatment.

Why do homes near Gerry Park and the harbor in Roslyn get rats?

Because the pond, the head of Hempstead Harbor, and the old swampland under Gerry Park give Norway rats water and cover, and the restaurants in the village give them food. Rat work in the low part of the village usually means interior trapping, sealing entry points along the foundation, and locked exterior bait stations that we service, with a 60-day written guarantee.

Do split-levels in Roslyn Heights get mice?

Yes, especially from October on. Roslyn Heights' 1950s splits and ranches have attached garages and lower-level utility entries that give mice easy access once nights turn cold. Sealing those entry points with steel mesh is part of every Bobby Bugs mouse job, and it carries a 60-day written guarantee.
