Pests Covered
Bell Environmental has been servicing homes and businesses since 1963, and it remains on the cusp of advanced technology in the industry today. The company combines innovative technology with eco-friendly solutions to service the greater New York areas. Bell Environmental services residential clients as well as hospitals, schools, hotels, restaurants, shopping centers, supermarkets, libraries, and more. The business coverage area spans Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, and Staten Island. Meanwhile, Bell Environmental services homes in an even broader range, including:
-
Basking Ridge, Bayonne, Bernardsville, Brewster, Bridgewater, Bronxville, Darien, East Hampton, Edison, Elizabeth, Fort Lee, Glen Cove, Greenwich, Hackensack, Hempstead, Hoboken, Huntington, Islip, Jersey City, Kearny, Livingston, Long Beach, Madison, Montclair, Morristown, Mount Vernon, New Brunswick, New Rochelle, Newark, Nyack, Parsippany, Passaic, Paterson, Riverhead, Scarsdale, Shelter Island, Short Hills, Southampton, Stamford, Suffern, Summit, Tarrytown, Wayne, White Plains, Woodbridge, and Yonkers.
Bell Environmental’s pest control services can be summed up in 3 general categories:
-
Bird control
Bell Environmental also covers a variety of birds, a common issue in these areas. Bell Environmental exterminators will help reduce damage, risk, mess, and complaints associated with bird infestations around homes and office buildings.
-
Bed bugs removal
Bell Environmental has a unique approach to bed bug detection. These exterminators use a team of trained hounds to sniff out and find any bed bugs and eggs. Dubbed Roscoe the Bed Bug Dog, this team of canine snoopers actually has certification (no joke, literally WDDO - World Detector Dog Organization, certification), highly trained to detect these nearly invisible pests from within their hiding spots.
-
Pest control
Of course, Bell Environmental also handles more traditional pest infestations, including flying, crawling, and mining bug infestations like ants, roaches, and rodents. Here’s a partial list of the pests covered by Bell Environmental:
-
Pigeons
-
Sparrows
-
Starlings
-
Gulls
-
Roaches
-
Rats
-
Mice
-
Other rodents
-
Ants
-
Flies
-
Spiders
-
Bed bugs
Bell Environmental Pricing
Obviously, pricing for pest extermination is not a one-size-fits-all solution. As with most exterminators, Bell Environmental does not give standard pricing on the website. This is because pest control costs highly depend on the specifics of the situation. Customers will have to speak to a rep directly to get a price quote for their individual situation. One thing we can say is that Bell Environmental is a more cost-effective option because the InstaFreeze solution saves the furniture (mattresses, artwork, electronics, etc.) that may have been infested by bugs, saving you money on buying new items to replace the infested ones.
Bell Environmental Guarantee
Bell Environmental offers a 100% zero-pest guarantee. The zero-pest zone system is so thorough that Bell Environmental backs up its work with this no questions asked guarantee. If any bugs remain alive or repopulate, a technician will return to complete the job without any further payments.
Customer Service
Bell Environmental offers phone and email customer service. Alternatively, you can browse through the website. There is a lot of information, albeit not as organized as we’d like it to be.

Testimonials
“Hi Bell Environmental.
I just had my first bed bug treatment yesterday. Your guys were amazing. Really professional, respectful of my space, and it was obvious that they knew what they were doing. Anyway, thanks again! I’m really happy with the service I’ve gotten.
Thanks!”
Mike, Jersey City, NJ
“I am writing to sing the praises of your Entomologist Field Supervisor. His professionalism, scientific background, obvious command of the state of the art information concerning the eradication of bed bugs, patience and honesty were a ray of bright light during a very stressful situation. Like most of your clients, I called your company seeking answers to my questions concerning how to prevent bed bugs. As opposed to other companies I spoke to, your supervisor gave straight forward, consistent explanations and took the time to insure that I was confident in the process. After speaking to him on the phone, I knew that your company was the one I would work with. Not only did he explain all of the steps of the process to me clearly, he took pictures of the process and had them sent to me contemporaneously so that I could be assured that the services I purchased were truly the services I received. This was extremely important to me as I had heard directly from other exterminating companies that this was often not the case. Your supervisor always returned my calls promptly, coordinated my services with the delivery companies and followed through in every respect.
You are very fortunate to have such a dedicated and knowledgeable employee. In these situations, it is just the kind of customer service and honest delivery of services that you offer that makes all of the difference. Because of this, I will recommend your company to anyone who requires your services.
Thank you once again for all of your help.
Yours Truly,”
Maryann, Bronx, NY
“Dear Bell,
I want to thank your inspector for coming to our apartment on Saturday morning to inspect a potential bed bug scare.
When my wife and I thought we saw a bedbug at 4 am early Saturday, we called Bell Environmental immediately. By 9:30, your customer service representative Shannon had called me back and could not have been more accommodating in calming my nerves and describing the options for treatment and the process around it. I know that you were finishing up at a client site in the city but when you heard about our scare, you came right over. You couldn’t have been more professional and assuring. I also appreciate your taking the time to educate us and our super. I was so happy when you determined that it was NOT bed bugs.
If we ever had a problem again, I’d call you immediately. Thanks again for being so responsive, helpful, assuring and professional.
All the best,”
Adam T., Brooklyn, NY
“Dear Bell Customer Service,
We wanted to take the time to acknowledge the team of employees who performed their services in rectifying a very difficult situation for us. The professionalism, knowledge, and especially the concern that your employees exhibited to us as greatly appreciated. They always made us feel comfortable regardless of the many phone calls placed and questions asked of them throughout the process. It began with a Sunday morning phone call placed to your company which was promptly answered by Mike. We were made to feel that he treated our situation with a true sense of urgency, and came to our house within a matter of hours. He took the time to investigate the issue thoroughly, and proposed a solution to the problem. Although the pricing was more costly than some of your competition, because of the initial contact with Mike, we decided to secure your services. From that point on our comfort level only improved as we dealt with your supervisor Matt and his team of technicians. We’d especially like to thank him for all the visits he made to ensure that the problem was being addressed correctly. We would also like to acknowledge the 7 technicians who showed their knowledge and professionalism when they came to our home to help us get rid of our problem. And a special thank you to your Jack Russell detective Sparky and his handler Andrew. We are obviously very pleased that we chose your company, and if need be, we would highly recommend your services. Thanks again to all for the excellent service and concern you showed.
Yours Truly,”
Carolyn and Dan, Parsippany,NJ
Bottom Line
Bell Environmental offers cutting edge technology, certified, trained detection dogs, and zero-pest zone systems for 100% pest elimination. The only downside to this company is its limited coverage area. It would be a real service to have Bell Environmental expand its coverage area to service more homes and businesses.
