Why Long Island City Has a Crickets Problem
Long Island City's mix of converted industrial lofts, high-rise apartments, and commercial spaces along Jackson Avenue and Court Square creates unique environments where crickets seek shelter, especially during cooler months. The proximity to Gantry Plaza State Park and the waterfront, combined with older warehouse buildings and new construction, means crickets often migrate indoors seeking warmth and moisture.
Why Choose Us for Cricket Control in Long Island City
Cricket infestations are primarily an exterior-to-interior problem — populations build up outdoors around foundation plantings, mulch beds, and exterior lighting, then migrate inside through gaps under doors and in the foundation as temperatures drop in fall. Our treatment applies a residual exterior barrier around the entire foundation perimeter, targeting the mulch beds, entry points, and harborage areas where crickets concentrate. Interior treatments focus on basement perimeters, utility areas, and any indoor harborage sites. We also recommend switching exterior lighting to yellow bug lights, which attract far fewer insects, as a preventive measure. Our 30-day guarantee covers re-treatment if crickets persist indoors after our service.
