Whether you live in Rockaway borough or out in the township, Prestige Pest Unit can help with pest control, exterminator services and rodent removal in Rockaway, NJ. One local team handles the ants in spring, the wasps in summer and the mice and stink bugs in the fall.
Prestige Pest Unit is owner-run and based in Franklin, NJ, serving Morris and Sussex County. You deal with a small local team that explains what it found and what it will do about it.
Pest control, exterminator and rodent removal in Rockaway are often one job. Mice and carpenter ants use the same gaps near the foundation and in damp wood, so we inspect and treat the whole home, not just the one pest you saw.
October is when mice, stink bugs and lady beetles start looking for a way into Rockaway homes. Sealing gaps around windows, vents and the foundation now keeps them out for the winter.
Homes near the Rockaway River and the lakes stay damp, which draws carpenter ants and other moisture pests in spring and summer. In the fall the focus shifts to mice and stink bugs. A fall inspection covers both.

Rockaway was formed as a borough on June 19, 1894, from portions of Rockaway Township, based on the results of a referendum held the previous day. Additional portions of Rockaway Township were annexed by the borough in 1908.
The borough shares its name with the Rockaway River and the neighboring township. The name is derived from a Native American term, variously said to mean “place of sands”, “creek between two hills” or “bushy” / “difficult to cross”.
The First Presbyterian Church of Rockaway was founded in 1758. Many veterans of the American Revolutionary War are buried in its cemetery. The current brick church was built in 1832.
