Frequently Asked Questions

There are a number of common household pests that people in Long Island experience. Some of the most common include ants, cockroaches, mice, and rats. These pests can enter your home in a number of different ways, including cracks and crevices in the foundation, open doors and windows, and even through the plumbing.

If home infestations are left untreated, the problem will only get worse. The pests will multiply and spread, and the damage they cause will increase. Ultimately, this can lead to health problems for the occupants of the home, as well as structural damage to the property itself.

At Extermicore, we recommend that you contact a professional pest control company like us to treat your home for insect infestations. We have the experience and expertise to properly identify the type of insects infesting your home and to provide the most effective treatment. Doityourself methods are often ineffective and can even make the problem worse.

There are a few insects that can be difficult to get rid of and it really depends on the severity of the infestation. If the infestation is small, then it might just be a matter of using the right products and following the proper protocol. However, if the infestation is large, then it might require calling in a professional pest control company like Extermicore. Some of the hardest insects to get rid of include:

Cockroaches – Cockroaches are one of the hardest insects to get rid of because they are very resilient. They can live without food for up to a month and can survive without water for up to two weeks. They also reproduce very quickly, so if you have even one or two cockroaches, it’s likely that there are many more hiding in your home.

Termites – Termites are another difficult insect to get rid of because they live in colonies that can number in the millions. They also eat wood, which means they can cause a lot of damage to your home if they’re not dealt with quickly.

If you’re dealing with any of these insects, it’s best to call in a professional pest control company like Extermicore. We have the experience and expertise to deal with these pests quickly and effectively, so you can rest assured that your home will be pest-free in no time.

We recommend that you do the following in preparation for your extermination appointment:

  1. Clear out all food items, dishes, and cooking utensils from the areas that will be treated.
  2. Remove all pet food and water bowls from the areas that will be treated.
  3. Cover or remove any exposed food items in your pantry or cupboards.
  4. Cover or remove any exposed pet food.
  5. Seal off any open containers of food, beverages, or spices.
  6. Pick up any loose items from the floor, including toys, clothing, shoes, etc.
  7. Move any furniture or obstacles that may be in the way of the exterminator.
