In the fall, mice in Walpack move into cabins and homes as soon as nights turn cold. Seal the gaps in October.
A typical Walpack year: carpenter ants and ticks in spring, wasps in summer, then mice from the first cold nights.
Stink bugs and lady beetles gather on sunny south and west walls first. Sealing around windows, siding and attic vents on those sides keeps most of them out.

Walpack Township dates back to October 26, 1731, when it was first mentioned as Walpake in Hunterdon County. The area covered by the present-day township was set off to Morris County upon that county’s creation in 1739, and became part of the newly formed Sussex County in 1753. As of April 15, 1754, Walpack’s boundaries were defined as a “precinct”. Walpack was formally incorporated as a township by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on February 21, 1798. Portions of the township were taken to form Montague Township (March 26, 1759), Sandyston Township (February 26, 1762) and the now-defunct Pahaquarry Township in Warren County (December 27, 1824). Territory was gained from Stillwater Township in 1935.
The Andrew Snable House was built in 1801 and was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 23, 1979. The was added to the NRHP on July 17, 1980.
In 1955 a proposal was made by Congress for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to alleviate flooding on the Delaware River by constructing a dam at the site of Tocks Island. This dam, 10 miles (16 km) south of Walpack, would have created a lake roughly 40 miles (64 km) long and 1 mile (1.6 km) wide. Approximately 72,000 acres (29,000 ha) of the surrounding land, including Walpack, were claimed under eminent domain by the government for this project and thousands of area residents were forced to move out. Although the dam was never actually constructed, the township’s population has been on the decline ever since.
