Hazel And Friends

squirrel-2Personally, I like squirrels….as long as they stay outside.  The Nutt family in Northern Ireland used to like squirrels.  In fact they liked them well enough to name one furry little scavenger “Hazel.”  The squirrels first came calling to the Nutt household about six years ago.  Fast forward to eighteen months ago and it seems that the once nice squirrel/family friendship fizzled.

Taking over the backyard was not enough for the squirrels.  They have now decided to move inside, despite the pleas from their once human friends.  The squirrels have caused quite a bit of damage to the home.  They have chewed big holes in the roof and as a result squirrels are living in the attic, walls and under the floor boards throughout the entire house.  At night the family can hear the squirrels running from place to place throughout the house.

The family has used poison to kill the squirrels.  The problem is that when the squirrels ate the poison, they died in the walls of the home.  Soon the flies came and caused a horrible mess that made matters even worse.  There does not seem to be an end to the squirrel nightmare this family is encountering.

It makes you wonder if perhaps the surname is drawing the furry creatures inside! 

If squirrels are busting through your roof, living in your attic, walls or under your wood flooring, it’s time to call out a professional squirrel remover to get the job done right.  At Stern Environmental Group, we specialize in 24 hour emergency squirrel removal services in the New York City metropolitan region serving, New York City, parts of New Jersey, and parts of Long Island.

Should NJ, NYC Bed Bugs Infested Hotels be Sued?

Should tourists be allowed to sue NJ, NYC hotels if they were bitten by bed bugs while staying in the building? It depends on the situation. If hotels are adhering to standards established by experts to prevent bed bug infestations and are hiring qualified pest control companies and following their suggestions for treatments perhaps an apology to hotel guests that were attacked by bed bugs should suffice. Hotels in NJ, NYC, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens and Manhattan can’t strip search everyone and rummage through every guests luggage looking for bed bugs. Even if they have the opportunity to inspect all the items in suitcases those little bed bugs are hard to find.

If there is no negligence or malice involved maybe hotel owners shouldn’t have to pay out big piles of money for bed bug bites. One could argue they should sue hotel guests for bringing the little critters in and infesting their building. Sometimes people just have to be content with the idea that sometimes unfortunate things happen and suing isn’t appropriate. However, if the hotel owner is aware of a bed bugs infestation and does nothing about it and does not warn his guests then sure slap a law suit on him.

If you have bed bugs call a NJ, NYC bed bugs pest control professional to destroy them.
