Editorial Review
Our Take on Standard Pest Management
Standard is the oldest firm in this ranking and still family-run, with an entomologist on staff for tricky cases. Recent reviews are strong and specific. The website talks mostly to building managers, so homeowners should ask about residential pricing.

Company Background
About Standard Pest Management
Standard Pest Management has been treating New York City apartments and storefronts since 1929, by its own account, and its blue vans with the cartoon ant work out of 25-80 Steinway St in Astoria. The company says it is now in its 97th year and its fourth generation of family ownership. Josh Bloom, quoted on the site as vice president, says quality assurance runs through every level of the service.
The company's site lists a long menu: rodent exclusion, cockroach and bed bug treatment, termite inspection and remediation, mosquito and tick control, bird deterrents, wildlife proofing and even power washing for building exteriors. It also has a page about the entomologist on staff, which is useful when the pest is unusual or the problem keeps coming back. The site displays QualityPro and BBB marks, and commercial accounts get a second review from a quality control division.
Reviews from the last few months mostly name one technician, Tony, who customers describe as punctual and thorough. Two households mention young children or dogs and say he planned treatments to keep chemical exposure down. One reviewer notes the roach job was still in progress, which is common with German cockroaches in older buildings.
Google shows 4.9 from 682 Google reviews, read November 11, 2026.
Standard suits Queens and Manhattan households who want a firm with a long track record and an in-house entomologist. Because the website is pitched at commercial clients, homeowners may need to ask how residential visits are priced. Before booking, request a written plan, the DEC business registration number and the certification of the assigned technician, and ask whether follow-up visits are included.
