OnGuard Pest Control, a family-owned pest management company with over 40 years of service in New York City, has announced the opening of a new location in Staten Island. This expansion brings the company's eco-friendly and customer-centric pest control services to one of the city's fastest-growing residential and commercial markets. The new office will offer the same detect-eliminate-prevent approach that has established OnGuard as a trusted name across the city, addressing common pests such as bed bugs, rodents, roaches, and ants.
“Staten Island has been asking for us for a long time, and we're thrilled to finally bring OnGuard's brand of pest control to the borough,” said Todd Corsello, President and Owner of OnGuard Pest Control. “Our approach has always been about more than just spraying and leaving. We inspect, we educate, we use eco-friendly methods whenever possible, and we build a real plan with every customer so the problem doesn't come back. That's the same standard we're bringing to every Staten Island home and business we serve.”
OnGuard has built its reputation on licensed and insured technicians, customized treatment plans, and a stated position as New York's #1 eco-friendly pest control provider. The company's three-step process—detect, eliminate, and prevent—is designed to identify the root cause of an infestation, resolve it safely and economically, and then seal off entry points and attractants to prevent future issues. This proactive approach not only addresses immediate problems but also aims to reduce the need for repeated chemical treatments, aligning with growing consumer demand for environmentally responsible services.
The expansion into Staten Island is significant for several reasons. It marks a strategic move into a borough that has seen substantial residential and commercial development in recent years, increasing the demand for reliable pest management. By establishing a local presence, OnGuard can provide faster response times and more personalized service, which are critical in pest control where timely intervention can prevent extensive damage and health risks. Moreover, the company's commitment to eco-friendly methods distinguishes it in a market where many competitors still rely on conventional, potentially harmful pesticides. This aligns with broader trends toward sustainability and health-conscious living, making OnGuard's services particularly appealing to families and businesses that prioritize environmental stewardship.
Beyond its core services, OnGuard also runs a quarterly community giving initiative called “OnGuard Gives Back,” partnering with local and national charities. The most recent partnership with One Simple Wish helped grant 22 wishes for children and youth in foster care, including clothing, school supplies, and birthday gifts. This community focus enhances the company's reputation and fosters loyalty among customers who value businesses that give back. The Staten Island expansion is expected to continue this tradition, potentially increasing the company's positive impact in the borough.
The new Staten Island location can be reached at the company's main line, (347) 948-9284. With this opening, OnGuard now serves residential and commercial customers across Brooklyn, greater New York City, and Staten Island, with phone support and online booking available for both new and existing customers. This accessibility ensures that residents and business owners can easily request services and schedule appointments, further streamlining the customer experience.
In an era where urban pest problems are on the rise due to factors like climate change and increased travel, having a reliable, eco-friendly pest control provider is more important than ever. OnGuard's expansion into Staten Island not only meets a local demand but also sets a benchmark for responsible pest management in urban environments. By combining proven methods with a commitment to sustainability and community engagement, OnGuard is well-positioned to become a leading pest control provider in the borough, offering peace of mind to its customers while protecting both public health and the environment.
