Stretching from the Delaware River waterfront across from Philadelphia to the oak-pine forests of the New Jersey Pinelands, Gloucester County spans 24 municipalities and more than 300,000 residents. Formed in 1686, the county brings together historic streetscapes in Woodbury, Pitman, Mullica Hill, and Swedesboro; suburban neighborhoods and retail hubs in Washington Township and Deptford; student rentals near Rowan University in Glassboro; preserved farms in Elk and Franklin townships; and major warehouse parks in Logan Township\’s Pureland Industrial Complex and along Route 322 in Woolwich. Zero Pests is a small, local, veteran-owned company where Gloucester County homeowners and businesses deal directly with owner-exterminator Ed Newton (NJ Pesticide License #92354B). With 23+ years of hands-on experience, Ed handles every job himself—no middleman, no revolving door of technicians, and no pushy big-chain upsells.
Common Pests in Gloucester County, NJ
- Termites and carpenter ants: Subterranean termites and carpenter ants target 19th-century cottages in Pitman Grove, older frame houses in Woodbury and Mullica Hill, and wooded lots in Mantua, Washington Township, and Monroe.
- Mosquitoes and ticks: Tidal creeks along the Delaware River (Big Timber, Mantua, Woodbury, Raccoon, and Oldmans creeks), Wilson Lake, Washington Lake, and Pinelands woods in Williamstown, Clayton, and Franklinville drive mosquito and tick activity.
- Mice and rats: Fall harvests push field mice into subdivisions built on former farmland in Harrison and Woolwich, while commercial strips along Route 42, Route 130, and Pureland see year-round rodent pressure.
- Wasps, hornets, and yellowjackets: Paper wasps under deck railings, hornets in trees, and yellowjacket ground nests in lawns are frequent late-summer calls.
- Ants, cockroaches, bed bugs, and spiders: Odorous house ants and spiders are everyday complaints, while apartments, student rentals in Glassboro, and restaurant kitchens face cockroach and bed bug issues.
- Local wildlife: Squirrels, raccoons, groundhogs, skunks, opossums, and bats move along wooded creeks and parklands into attics, soffits, chimneys, and crawlspaces.
