Green Program

Now more than ever, it’s important to make good decisions about your home. At GOTHAM Pest Control, we spend all of our time helping neighborhood homeowners preserve the American Dream by practicing responsible pest control.

Every residential service we provide balances a homeowner’s need for effective pest control and environmental sustainability. GOTHAM Pest Control's commercial customers have long benefited from our Integrated Pest Management Approach, which relies on a thorough inspection followed by intervention if, when, and where needed.

For as long as we’ve been in business, we’ve searched for the best methods for pest control. And we’ve also respected the fact that there are certain pests we shouldn’t control - beneficial insects that help maintain a balanced ecosystem. Helpful insects like ladybugs, honey bees, and praying mantises help control destructive insects. If you have a honey bee problem, for example, we invite you to contact your local extension service for information about beekeepers in your area.

We also adhere to policies that restrict the removal of certain pests. For example, to avoid jeopardizing the continuation of the species, we don’t disturb bat populations from May through October when bats are breeding, and the young cannot fly.

We explore and recommend non-chemical means of avoiding and reducing infestations. Easy and effective suggestions like where to stack your firewood, how to store food, and where to seal entry points can deter infestations.

While our regular services remain environmentally friendly, we understand that there are consumers who require special pest management services. Hospitals, schools, and green homeowners can refer to our Premium Green program for information about an individualized approach to pest management.
