Safe. Effective. Guaranteed.™ Local Experience for the Pest Problems You Don't Want to Live With

Whether it’s mice making noise inside the walls, ants appearing in the kitchen, cockroaches hiding around appliances, or something unexplained in the attic, Hollenbeck Pest Control helps Poughkeepsie property owners get answers—and effective solutions.

Pest Control for a City With Many Different Kinds of Properties

Poughkeepsie doesn’t fit neatly into one description.

 

Across the area you’ll find older homes, established residential neighborhoods, apartment and multi-family properties, businesses, restaurants, offices, educational facilities, healthcare properties, newer development, and quieter residential areas farther from the urban center.

 

Each type of property can develop its own pest problems.

 

Older structures may contain gaps, utility openings, aging foundations, basements, wall voids, and other areas pests can exploit. Commercial buildings can face entirely different concerns involving deliveries, storage, food, waste, employee areas, customers, and adjoining properties.

 

Hollenbeck Pest Control doesn’t assume the answer before we’ve seen the problem.

 

We inspect, identify what we’re dealing with, look for conditions contributing to the activity, and recommend a treatment or management plan appropriate for that particular property.

Not sure what pest you're dealing with?

SOMETIMES THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF PEST CONTROL IS THE INSPECTION

Treating the Symptom Isn't the Same as Solving the Problem.

A few droppings beneath a kitchen sink tell you mice have been there. They don’t tell you how the mice got inside.

 

A trail of ants tells you where they’re traveling. It doesn’t necessarily tell you where the colony is located.

 

And seeing a cockroach doesn’t reveal how extensive the activity may be behind appliances, around plumbing, inside wall voids, or elsewhere in the building.

 

Hollenbeck takes the time to investigate.

 

It’s an approach strengthened by more than four generations of pest control experience and the expertise of a Board Certified Entomologist on staff.

    Matt came out for same-day yellow jacket removal. He quickly removed the nest from the foundation while working in the basement. He was very friendly,… knowledgeable, and professional. We are so happy with all the services Hollenbeck offers- the very best! Thank you!!
  • Robert Wickham
    Rob was amazing. He knew exactly what to do and wasn’t afraid to get dirty and get the job done. An absolute professional, and sweet to my young son who was… there too. I am so happy we called when we did!
  • Laura Ingrassia
    Rob from Hollenbeck stopped to help me on his way home from work when he saw me stranded at the side of the road with a flat tire. He was so professional and… cheerful about changing a tire! I would gladly consider Hollenbeck in the future for pest control needs.
  • T Brunson
    I had a great home inspection from Hollenbeck Pest Control. The technician's name was Danielle. She was well informed and extremely patient. She took the time… to explain what the risks were with certain pest's presence and what services Hollenbeck offered to help. She was so well versed in pest control in general and exactly what Hollenbeck 's policies and procedures are in a myriad of scenarios, that I signed up for the annual protection package.
  • Brandi Colon
    We've been with Hollenbeck many years now and have never had a bad experience. Our technician, Max, was extremely polite and addressed all of our concerns! Max… throughly explained everything he planned to do, everywhere he sprayed and even told us specific places he thought we should keep an eye on. He has been to our location before and is always a pleasure to work with!
  • Ada Freeman
    Rob was on time and very thorough. He explained the corrective process and the 3 levels of service. Rob was knowledgeable and I hope to work with him again.
  • Melanie Mattera
    We are quite pleased with the service call by Rob D. From Hollenbeck Pest Control today. Rob was early for our appointment, pleasant and very knowledgeable. … This was our first experience with a pesky mouse and he explained the steps to take to prevent any further unwelcome critter visits. Rob came to assess the situation but was then able to service our issue. At this time we feel more comfortable in our home and welcome the follow-ups. Hollenbeck was recommended to us and now we highly recommend them.
  • Deborah Gilson
    I want to sing the praises of Nora the person who helped me with our pest challenge. She was kind, empathetic and reassured me and gave an action plan to… try. The owners of Hollenbeck are so fortunate to have her as the initial contact for future customers! Thank you for your kindness Nora!
  • Matthew Tether
    Excellent, timely, attentive service with good follow up to make sure we were satisfied. Also best pricing. The best!!
  • Marcy S
    I've used Hollenbeck in the past for more emergent problems. This time I called them in for preventative measures. As in the past they showed up, explained my… options, offered reasonable solutions, and treated the problem. Fernando was extremely knowledgeable, personable and careful. He took my concerns into consideration when formulating a plan. A++
  • Office staff are lovely and got us scheduled right away! Danielle was our technician and she gave us some great information and advice moving forward.
  • I ended up at Hollenbeck Pest Control the other day and had a really great experience. The office staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and took the time to… answer all of my questions without rushing me. You can tell right away that they genuinely care about the people they’re helping. As someone who also owns a pest control business, I pay close attention to how companies operate—and this one stands out. The way they treat customers and how professionally everything is handled speaks volumes about how the company is run. It’s not often you come across a team like this. Truly good people, and I would strongly recommend Hollenbeck Pest Control based on this experience alone.
  • Karen Grodnick
    Great experience with pest inspection and services. Rob is professional, friendly and takes the time to explain everything to me. Office staff (Tiffany) is also… very friendly and helpful. I def recommend!
  • Jennifer Campos
    Robert D. Came out to my home today to assess my house and offer services. Since I live in a log cabin, it was important that we attack the wood eating and… burrowing insects. I was also worried about my dogs and all the birds I seem to attract. He was so thorough in his explanation about the services and what insects I really need to look out for, so I wound up signing up for a program right there on the spot. Robert was great to talk to and work with. Thank you for the great service Robert and I'll see you again soon!
  • Anita Contreras
    Thank you for a wonderful job. I had a hornets nest in a tree hanging into street. I called Hollenbeck because of their great reviews and now I am completely… satisfied too. I was scheduled quickly and easily, my technician was respectful and very thorough in his job. He told me he does his work from his heart. I an very happy with Hollenbeck and if I ever have any other pest issues I will call then first.
  • Maria Ramirez
    Robert did a great job! He was polite, professional, and thorough. He explained everything clearly and provided excellent service. Highly recommend!
  • Christine Susskind
    Fantastic service. They came within 2 hours of my calling and took care of a large wasp nest quickly and safely. Highly recommend.
  • Jeremy Zareski
    I returned home from vacation to find yellow jackets flying around my basement. It was Saturday, but I called Hollenbeck, who I’ve had a service plan with for… the last few years, hoping to schedule an appointment when they opened the following week. Much to my surprise, they said they could dispatch someone same day for a nominal fee. The tech, Robert D., did a great job with a challenging situation involving a huge yellow jacket nest that infiltrated the foundation of my home, taking the time to explain every step he was taking to resolve the problem. I’ve been very satisfied with Hollenbeck in the past, and this experience further reinforces that I’m dealing with the most professional pest control company in the area. I appreciate both the quick response time (same day on a Saturday!) and the quality of the customer service provided in the field. Would strongly recommend. A+++
  • Ian Kennedy

  • Deijana Lebron

Pests Take Advantage of Buildings. We Look for How.

One of the challenges of pest control in Poughkeepsie is the sheer variety of structures.

 

An older home may have undergone additions, renovations, plumbing upgrades, electrical work, window replacements, or other changes over many decades. Each modification can potentially leave small gaps and hidden spaces that aren’t obvious during everyday life.

 

For a mouse, cockroach, ant, spider, or other pest, those spaces can matter.

 

Consider rodents.

 

A homeowner may first notice scratching at night or find droppings in a cabinet. But the mouse you notice inside began somewhere outside. Successful control means looking beyond the immediate evidence and considering how rodents may be entering and what is allowing them to remain.

 

Cockroaches present a different challenge. They favor protected locations with access to food, warmth, and moisture. Kitchens, plumbing areas, appliances, storage areas, and wall voids can provide suitable hiding places. In multi-family or adjoining properties, understanding where activity extends can become especially important.

 

Bed bugs require yet another strategy. They can be transported between locations and hide in extremely small spaces. Finding them doesn’t mean a home or business is dirty, and eliminating them requires a treatment plan specifically designed for bed bugs.

 

Termites are different again because much of their activity can remain concealed. Damage may develop within structural wood before the average property owner realizes there’s a problem.

 

Even common ants aren’t necessarily simple.

 

Different species behave differently, establish nests in different places, and respond to different management techniques. Correct identification helps determine what should happen next.

 

Outside the building, the list changes with the seasons. Mosquitoes, ticks, stinging insects, fleas, flies, and other pests become more noticeable during warmer months. As colder weather arrives, mice and overwintering insects begin seeking protected places.

 

Commercial properties introduce still more variables.

 

Restaurants, offices, retail businesses, healthcare facilities, institutional properties, warehouses, and other operations can’t all use the same pest management plan. Hours of operation, customers, employees, food handling, deliveries, storage, waste management, adjoining properties, and regulatory considerations can all influence how a program should be designed.

 

That’s why Hollenbeck doesn’t believe good pest control comes out of a one-size-fits-all playbook.

 

It starts by paying attention.

 

Our technicians inspect the property, identify the pest, look for contributing conditions, and develop recommendations around what they find. When an unusual situation requires another level of identification or technical knowledge, our team also has the expertise of a Board Certified Entomologist available.

 

It’s pest control based on understanding the problem before trying to solve it.

Frequently Asked Questions
About Pest Control in Poughkeepsie, NY

What pests are common in New Windsor?

New Windsor properties can experience a wide variety of pest problems throughout the year, including ants, mice, rats, ticks, mosquitoes, stink bugs, spiders, cockroaches, centipedes, flies, fleas, stinging insects, termites, and overwintering pests. Nuisance wildlife such as squirrels, raccoons, bats, groundhogs, and skunks can also cause problems around local properties.

Stink bugs are overwintering pests. As temperatures drop in the Hudson Valley, they look for protected places to survive the colder months and can enter homes through small gaps around siding, windows, doors, utility penetrations, and other openings. Hollenbeck offers exterior overwintering treatments designed to help reduce activity before these pests move indoors.
Ticks are an important concern throughout the Hudson Valley, particularly around properties with wooded edges, leaf litter, groundcover, tall vegetation, and other suitable habitat. Hollenbeck offers targeted tick treatments focused on areas where ticks are most likely to live and breed.
Rodent activity can become particularly noticeable as temperatures fall because mice and other rodents seek warmth, food, and protected nesting locations. Small openings around a home can provide enough space for rodents to gain access to wall voids, basements, garages, attics, and other areas.
Yes. Hollenbeck provides wildlife control for nuisance animals including squirrels, raccoons, bats, groundhogs, skunks, birds, and opossums. Our team evaluates the situation and develops a solution based on the animal and property.
Not every property requires the same service frequency. Hollenbeck offers both single treatments and preventative service plans, with options ranging from weekly service to once-a-year treatments depending on the property’s needs. Our plans can cover more than 30 common pests.

Yes. Hollenbeck offers warranties ranging from 30 days to one year depending on the pest and service performed. Our philosophy is simple: “If the pests return, so will we.”

Yes. Hollenbeck Pest Control is headquartered at 273 Quassaick Avenue in New Windsor, NY. We’re a local, family-owned company that has been operating since 2008, backed by more than four generations of experience serving the Hudson Valley.

Yes. Older homes can present unique challenges because foundations, utility openings, additions, renovations, basements, attics, and other structural features may provide potential pest access or hiding places. Our technicians inspect the property and develop recommendations based on what they find.
Yes. Hollenbeck provides commercial pest management for a variety of businesses and facilities. Service can be customized around the building, type of operation, pest activity, and specific requirements of the property.
Removing individual mice doesn't necessarily eliminate the reason they're getting inside. If entry points remain accessible, additional rodents may continue entering the structure. A more complete approach looks at both the existing activity and how rodents may be accessing the building.
Yes. Correct identification is an important part of pest management. Hollenbeck also has a Board Certified Entomologist on staff, providing an additional scientific resource when identification or a pest problem requires greater expertise.
Yes. Hollenbeck provides professional bed bug solutions. Because bed bugs behave differently from most common household pests, the appropriate treatment begins with confirming activity and evaluating the situation.
Not necessarily. Preventative pest management can help identify developing problems and conditions that may contribute to future activity. Hollenbeck offers both one-time treatments and ongoing service options depending on the needs of the property.
