Cowleys Pest Services Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Princeton, NJ had an issue with turkey vultures roosting on her home and underneath her porch. So our Bird Solutions division was sent out to help.

First, we disinfected all of their roosting areas on the roof and underneath the porch. After that was done we installed a new and sturdy lattice to properly close off all the open areas around the porch. To stop the turkey vultures from roosting and defecating all over the roof, we installed shock track. These unique, electrically charged tracks impart a mild electrical shock when the turkey vultures land on them. The shock will not harm them but will condition them to avoid the area. The shock track gets affixed to roof with no screws and is connected to a solar-powered charger. Now the home is excluded from turkey vultures.

Previously, this customer in Raritan, NJ had several flying squirrels residing in his attic. So he contacted Little Rascals for help and we were sent out. A short while after setting up our retrieval devices, we safely and successfully retrieved all of the flying squirrels in the property and took them to a safer location. Now we're going to prevent them from getting back into the home!

Since the flying squirrels were entering the home via the gable vent, we fashioned a louvered vent guard and installed it over that area. A louvered vent guard is made out of heavy-duty Galvannealed steel (which means it won't rust) and is customized to accommodate vents of all shapes and sizes! Now the gable vent is properly protected from all types of flying squirrels and nuisance wildlife!

Over the years Atlantic City Electric has been having issues with barn swallow flying in and nesting above the I- beams in the loading dock area. When asked by Cowleys pest control company for a solution, we immediately went out to the job site and installed Bird Slope on top of every I- beam. Bird Slope prevents birds from landing and nesting in those areas permanently.

Squirrels had tore a hole right into the gable vent of this home in Rocky Hill, NJ and were taken up residency in the customers attic. Actually, squirrels, and other nuisance wildlife, infesting a home via the gable vents is very common. Over time, the gable vents get weathered and raccoons, squirrels, birds, and bats have no problem ripping away these vents to find shelter inside a home.

Once we set up our retrieval devices, some time later, we retrieved all of the squirrels and took them to a new, humane location. We then disinfected the harborage area, went back to our trucks, and fashioned a louvered gable vent. This material is made out of heavy-duty Galvannealed steel (which means it won't rust) and is customized to accommodate vents of all shapes and sizes! Once we finished, we installed it over the gable vent. Now the area is properly protected from squirrels as well as all nuisance wildlife!

A business owner was experiencing a rat issue around his property in Bernardsville, NJ, so he called Cowleys for help and we were sent out. After inspecting the entire property, we found a number of rat burrows in the back of the building near the stairs to the basement. Rats create burrows to travel from their nest to a food source and to escape predators. Rat burrows usually contain a main entrance and 1 or 2 exit holes away from the main entrance.

We installed a number Ready-to-Use rodent bait stations near each of the burrows. After that, we then installed several snap traps that are inside temper-proof, child resistant boxes near the burrows. We also filled in a few of the burrows that were no longer in use by the rats. Lastly, we scheduled several follow-up visits to monitor the rat infestation, apply any additional treatments, and replenish the bait stations as needed.
