BROOKHAVEN PEST CONTROL
& EXTERMINATION

Typical Brookhaven Pest Control Problems

Brookhaven is unique in that it reaches all the way from the North Shore to the South Shore of Long Island. It draws visitors to both shores. However, in the beautiful town of Brookhaven, wasps have proven to be a pervasive problem from the north end to the south end. Unfortunately, wasps like yellow jackets and bald-faced hornets run common and are much more aggressive than most bees. They will attack if they feel humans are invading their space. That space may very well be a front porch, swing, or overhang. For many, wasp stings raise a painful welt that swells and disappears after a few days. For others, stings can cause major allergic reactions that last much longer or cause anaphylaxis, which is life-threatening. Fox Pest Control is here to help if you find yourself dealing with wasp issues.
