Collingswood,

Exterminators

Collingswood, New Jersey is a small town located in Camden County, just a few miles from Philadelphia. The land was originally home to Lenni Lenape Native Americans. In the late 17th century, Quaker settlements began to appear along the Cooper River and Newton Creek. The majority of present-day Collingswood was farmland owned by the Collings family throughout the 18th and 19th centuries.

Historic homes, including the Collings-Night homestead, dot the area. One of the oldest is the Stokes-Lees mansion, built in 1707. Collingswood is also the location of part of Harleigh Cemetery, where Walt Whitman is entombed.

Collingswood’s history as a Quaker settlement influences its present. Established as a dry town, the rules have changed slightly over the years. Restaurants still don’t sell alcohol, but they do allow their customers to bring their own beer or wine. In 2015, an ordinance passed allowing craft breweries to open in town as long as they don’t serve food. Haddon Avenue is a favorite spot for shopping and premier restaurants that received national recognition in USA Today’s 2018 choice for the best small-town food scene.

The Year-Round Threat of Pest Infestation

The town of Collingswood is located in a valley east of the Delaware River. Its proximity to Philadelphia provides plenty of entertainment options, while still offering outdoor recreation opportunities in Knight Park. Summers are humid and warm, but temperatures drop drastically during the cold and snowy winters.

Local weather patterns and plenty of parks to provide vegetation offer the ideal conditions for pests to thrive. Unfortunately for residents, the threat of pests is high all throughout the year. Spring and summer provide ample opportunity for populations to climb. Once fall sets in, these rodents and bugs start scurrying to find a warm environment and often find their way into homes. Pests common to the Collingswood area include:

• Ants
• Bats
• Cockroaches
• Crickets
• Fleas
• Flies
• Hornets
• Mice
• Millipedes
• Mining Bees
• Mites
• Mosquitoes
• Moths
• Rats
• Silverfish
• Spiders
• Stink bugs
• Termites
• Ticks
• Wasps

If you don’t take steps to prevent pests, or intervene when you see signs they are present, they can quickly become a major problem in your home or business. Keep your property safe with expert pest control solutions.
