Pests in schools are something no one wants to hear about or deal with. One sighting and students can spread the news fast, parents complaining and damaging your establishment's reputation. Whether you run a school, college, or university, we deliver Education Pest control services tailored to the demands of academic settings. You can trust our team at Assured Environments to protect your learning spaces while working discreetly with minimal disruption to the everyday routine - you can be sure that we will support and help uphold your institution's reputation.
If you manage an educational facility anywhere in New York, or New Jersey, Assured Environments has the expertise and specialist knowledge to protect your campus from pest problems disrupting learning.
We have worked with schools, colleges, and universities in New York and New Jersey for over 90 years, and we know about the unique pest challenges they face. Pests find it easy to move in when there are shared spaces with high foot traffic, such as cafeterias, dormitories, and food handling areas. As pests find it so easy to infest these places, it's harder to control them without the right approach.
We have a tailored, structured approach to providing pest control in educational facilities. Our team of technicians builds a pest management program designed for your campus needs. Our Integrated Pest Management (IPM) principles help identify pest risks, reduce attractants, and put controls in place that help prevent pest activity before it starts.
We know school environments run on tight schedules, so we coordinate services around your academic calendars to avoid interfering with lessons, exams, or events. We're also equipped to support emergency issues when fast response matters most.
Whether you manage a single school building or a large district, our approach stays the same; smart, preventative, discreet and responsive.

Across schools, colleges, and universities, pest activity often starts in places where people eat or gather. These frequent problem areas are cafeterias, locker rooms, dorms, and kitchens. Rodents and insects can begin in a dorm room and easily move through the building, looking for more resources such as food, and quickly cause infestations throughout the building.
Pests usually found in education facilities include ants, cockroaches, mice, flies, and rats. Bed bugs are also usually a concern and issue, especially in university housing or school dormitories. Bed bugs are hitchhikers who can travel unnoticed on backpacks and luggage. So if you are at the beginning of the school year and an infestation of bed bugs breaks out, they may have found a student's suitcase on holiday and stayed till they found their way into your facility.
No two educational facilities are the same, which means none of our pest control services should be the same, either. When you work with Assured Environments, no matter which of our services you require, you can rest assured that it will be customized to your specific needs. Whether your campus includes lecture halls, dormitories, athletic centers, or labs, our pest control for educational facilities is flexible enough to support them all.
Rats and mice are a serious problem for New York’s educational facilities. They sneak inside through small access points around door and window frames, and usually feed on garbage. Once they’re established, rodents are very difficult to remove without professional help. Luckily, Assured Environments can remove rodent infestations and keep them from getting in again.

Flies are attracted to any sources of food or moisture. They frequently make nests inside residue left behind in dirty drains. The longer flies infest a drain or other source of moisture, the more trouble they can cause. Assured Environments cleans drains, removes nests, and makes sure flies can’t establish themselves again.
Several varieties of pests, including flies, silverfish, moths, centipedes, and even rodents can make nests inside residue left in dirty trash chutes. This is a particularly egregious problem, because once established in chutes, pests often spread throughout the building. Assured Environments can clean trash chutes and ensure that pests can’t access them again.
Bed bugs hitchhike into buildings on boxes, bags, and clothing. Once inside, they seek out dark, warm areas… and begin to spread. Assured Environments’ special K-9 identification units find bed bugs with 97% accuracy, and then we use the latest technology to wipe them out. You can learn more and meet the dogs here!
Cockroaches are very common infestations throughout New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut’s educational facilities. They sneak in through small access points and nest in dark, humid, and secluded places. Assured Environments can wipe out cockroach infestations, remove nests, and make sure they can’t come back.
