Fumigation for Long Island’s Historic Homes and Artifacts


The Vanderbilt Museum in Centerport

Suburban Exterminating offers fumigation services in the maintenance and conservation of the historic and unique sites on Long Island.  The North Shore of the island, in particular, is dotted with the remarkable estates of the tycoons of the early 20th century, like Vanderbilt and Roosevelt.  There are dozens of museums, art galleries and parks built around these historic sites in hopes of preservation.   For more information on Suburban’s fumigation services, both commercial and residential, call (516) or (631) 864-6900.

Galleries and museums are prone to develop and transfer infestations because:
  • They borrow objects from outside sources
  • Have heavy foot traffic
  • Have dark areas that harbor pests 
  • They store undisturbed materials for long periods of time

At Suburban, trained, certified and licensed fumigation technicians are equipped in the latest technology of fumigation monitoring.  This process was designed to protect products:
  1. in storage 
  2. exhibits 
  3. shipments

Personal collections are highly susceptible, as well, because they are not scrutinized as thoroughly as museum objects.  At the Suburban headquarters in Smithtown, there is a fumigation vault for personal collection.  The vault is 24’ long X 8’ wide X 8’ tall.  All suspected items can be brought to Suburban Exterminating directly for a fumigation treatment and protected with the care and handling your artifacts and prized possessions deserve.

For information about Suburban Exterminating, call (631) 864-6900 or (516) 864-6900

Suburban Exterminating Holiday FOOD DRIVE with The INN


Suburban's elves get into the holiday spirit by giving back to Long Island's needy!

Suburban Exterminating is proud to announce that we will be participating in a Food Drive this holiday season for the benefit of The INN.  From November 28 through December 16, 2011, Suburban will be collecting nonperishable packaged food and canned goods. Suburban has been reaching out to The INN through Twitter recently, and together we’ve found a great project to benefit the needy people of Long Island at this special time of year.


The INN (Interfaith Nutrition Network) addresses the issues of hunger and homelessness on Long Island by providing food, shelter, long-term housing, and supportive services in a dignified and respectful manner. Founded in 1983, The INN is a not-for-profit, volunteer-based organization with a dedicated staff, a broad base of community support and a commitment to educate the public about these issues.   For further information on The INN, how to help, donate or volunteer, visit www.the-inn.org, or contact the Communications Department for information at 516.486.8506 ext 115. The demand for food items is greater than ever.  You donations make it possible to feed The INN’s guests.  


In the spirit of this giving season, Suburban Exterminating asks its employees, customers and neighbors to donate canned and nonperishable foods and goods.  Some suggestions are canned vegetables, meats, fish, fruits and soups.  Dry goods such as pasta, rice and cereal are also needed.  Because there are almost 110,000 Long Island children who face hunger every day, dry milks, almond milk or soy milk are of great importance.  As well, baby formula, diapers and personal hygiene items are always in demand.  Please NO GLASS containers, as these may break.


There will be designated boxes through out the Suburban office to make your donation.  For monetary donations and further information, call Bob Wiemer at (631) 864-6900 or email bwiemer@suburbanexterminating.com.


Look for these donation boxes around the Suburban Exterminating offices to donate canned goods and nonperishable goods
