New York Exterminating is an ACE-led, Midwood-based pest control company (1115 E 13th St, Brooklyn, NY 11230), and German cockroach elimination is what we’re known for across Brooklyn. From the brownstones of Park Slope and Bedford-Stuyvesant to the prewar buildings of Flatbush, Midwood, and Brighton Beach, German cockroaches spread between units through shared walls and plumbing lines — so we treat the source unit and its neighbors together rather than spraying one apartment and waiting for the call to come back.
Our German cockroach service is designed to eliminate the infestation in a single visit, not to put you on a monthly spray contract — follow-up visits are for verification only, never re-application. Whenever possible, the same technician handles your home, we don’t blame your housekeeping, and we’re led by Jorge Bedoya, an Associate Certified Entomologist (ACE) and NYSDEC-licensed applicator (#15140). We work in English and Spanish, and we serve all five boroughs plus Nassau and Westchester.
Brooklyn has logged 7,938 rodent complaints to NYC 311 in 2026 (January 1 through October 13) — more than any other borough, ahead of Manhattan at 5,094 and Queens at 4,465. The heaviest pressure sits in central and north Brooklyn, where rowhouses share walls, cellars and party-line sewers:
| ZIP | Neighborhood | 311 rodent complaints, 2026 |
|---|---|---|
| 11233 | Bedford-Stuyvesant / Ocean Hill | 606 — the highest of any ZIP in NYC |
| 11226 | Flatbush | 495 |
| 11221 | Bushwick / Bed-Stuy border | 465 |
| 11216 | Bedford-Stuyvesant west | 463 |
| 11238 | Prospect Heights / Clinton Hill | 377 |
| 11225 | Prospect Lefferts Gardens | 359 |
| 11213 | Crown Heights | 326 |
| 11206 | Williamsburg / Bushwick | 306 |
These are the blocks our walking-route technicians cover daily from our Midwood base. In October 2026, one NYE visit treated a three-apartment German cockroach bundle in a Bedford-Stuyvesant rowhouse — all three units in a single day, so the building stopped passing the problem between floors.

In Brooklyn, German cockroaches live inside appliance motors, cabinet joints and plumbing voids, so treating what you see never reaches the colony. Our ACE-led Trio Protocol hits the colony three ways in a single visit:

When you search for an “exterminator in Brooklyn, NY,” you want more than a one-time spray — you want a Brooklyn exterminator who knows the borough’s brownstones, pre-war walk-ups, and mixed-use buildings, and who treats the source instead of just the symptom. As a Brooklyn-based, ACE-led Brooklyn pest control company, New York Exterminating has cleared everything from German cockroaches in Flatbush kitchens to bed bugs in Park Slope rentals and rodents in Bushwick basements.
Hiring a local Brooklyn pest control service means a faster response, neighborhood-specific know-how, and an exterminator who is accountable to the community — not a national call center. Every Brooklyn exterminator job is led by an Associate Certified Entomologist (ACE), so you get a correct identification and a targeted treatment plan on the first visit.
New York Exterminating has protected Brooklyn homes and businesses for more than a decade. We’re not a national call center — we’re a Brooklyn-based company with an Associate Certified Entomologist (ACE) on staff, NYSDEC registration (#15140), and crews that know the difference between a Park Slope brownstone, a Sheepshead Bay waterfront home, and a Borough Park multi-family building. From the southern beaches to the northern brownstone belt, we treat the pests that actually come with each kind of property — and we back every job with ACE-certified care.
Brooklyn’s mix of century-old brownstones, prewar apartment buildings, attached homes, and dense restaurant corridors creates pressure from every direction. We handle German cockroaches in restaurants and apartments, American and Oriental roaches (“waterbugs”) in damp basements, mice and rats that move through old foundations and party walls, discreet bed bug infestations in multi-unit housing, pavement and carpenter ants, termites in historic wood framing, and raccoons, squirrels, and birds near the borough’s parks. We also provide WDO inspections and termite letters for Brooklyn buyers and sellers.
We offer same-day and emergency appointments throughout Brooklyn, free estimates and phone quotes for homes and businesses, discreet scheduling for apartment buildings and restaurants, and bilingual (English/Spanish) service. Whether you own a single-family home, manage a multi-unit building, or run a restaurant, we tailor a reliable treatment plan to your property and your neighborhood.
An Associate Certified Entomologist (ACE) on staff, NYSDEC registration #15140, science-driven and low-impact treatments that protect historic homes, reliable service, free estimates, and a local team that has served the borough since 2010 — that’s the difference between us and a national chain.
Brooklyn is one of the most pest-pressured places in the country, and the reasons are built into how the borough is put together and how densely people live here. With more than 2.6 million residents packed into row houses, walk-ups, and towers, Brooklyn pest control has to account for a housing stock that spans three centuries — and the pests each style of building invites.
Pre-war brownstones and row houses. Park Slope, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Clinton Hill, and Fort Greene are full of century-old brownstones with shared party walls, cellar-level kitchens, and original wood framing. Those wall cavities and void spaces give mice, rats, and German cockroaches protected highways between floors and between attached homes, which is why treating a single unit is rarely enough.
Walk-ups and multifamily buildings. Across Flatbush, Sunset Park, Crown Heights, and Bay Ridge, older walk-ups share risers, trash rooms, and drop ceilings. German cockroaches ride from apartment to apartment along plumbing chases, so a roach problem in one kitchen is usually a building problem — the reason our exterminators in Brooklyn, NY coordinate treatment across connected units instead of chasing one apartment at a time.
New condos and mixed-use construction. Even brand-new towers in Downtown Brooklyn, Williamsburg, and Gowanus are not immune. Ground-floor retail, shared refuse rooms, and construction that ties into aging city infrastructure give rodents and roaches an entry point long before residents move in.
Restaurant and commercial corridors. Corridors like Smith Street, Fifth Avenue in Park Slope, Bedford Avenue, and Eighth Avenue in Sunset Park concentrate restaurants, groceries, and food storage — a constant food source that feeds cockroach and rodent populations in the residential buildings next door.
Waterfront, parks, and the subway. Rats thrive along the edges of Prospect Park, the Gowanus Canal, and the Coney Island and Sheepshead Bay waterfront, and they travel the subway lines and sewer network that stitch the borough together. Ground-floor and basement apartments near these corridors see the heaviest rodent pressure.
Put together, this is why the same three problems dominate the borough: German cockroaches in multifamily kitchens, mice and rats near parks, waterfronts, and the subway, and bed bugs moving through shared multi-unit housing. Effective Brooklyn pest control means treating the source and the whole building, not just the symptom — and it is part of our wider NYC pest control services across all five boroughs.
