As the weather warms up across the Jersey Shore, so do the pest problems. Spring is the start of mosquito season, ant infestations, and increased rodent activity—which makes now the time to take proactive steps to protect your property.
In a recent video collaboration with Jersey Shore personality and Toms River native KChev (Kevin Chiaravalloti), Dan Latini—better known as Dan the Bug Man—talks candidly about what makes his approach to pest control different. And why, when you see a pest, you shouldn’t think twice.
Don’t think: Who can? Dan Can.
Passion and Purpose Behind Every Service
Dan Can Home Services is more than a pest control business—it’s a locally owned, community-centered service with a real passion for protecting homes, businesses, and families.
“I’m all about passion,” Dan explains. “People in this area know me as Dan the Bug Man. I know it’s cheesy, but I tell everyone—if you see a pest and you want it gone, don’t think who can—Dan can. Friends and family not included.”
That humor, combined with deep industry knowledge and firsthand experience in the food service world, makes Dan an asset to both homeowners and business owners throughout New Jersey.
Customized Pest Control for Homes and Businesses
One of the most important aspects of Dan’s work is tailoring each pest control plan to the needs of the customer.
- Most residential pest control visits are scheduled every three months.
- For mosquito or tick issues, Dan recommends more frequent service—typically every 3 to 4 weeks during spring and summer.
- Restaurants, cafes, doctors’ offices, and retail businesses all have different pest control needs based on size, foot traffic, and food safety risks.
- Mom-and-pop businesses may need monthly service.
- Larger chains or high-traffic spaces typically require bi-monthly visits.
- Restaurants are required by the Board of Health to maintain a professional pest control program, making routine service essential for compliance and customer safety.
“I come from the restaurant industry,” Dan says. “So I approach it from a pest control perspective, but also with a ServeSafe and food safety mindset. I understand what business owners need to stay clean, safe, and compliant.”
Interior, Exterior, or Both—It’s All About the Situation
Whether Dan is treating a family home or a commercial kitchen, he takes a practical, problem-solving approach.
- For homes, he typically focuses on exterior treatments to prevent pests from entering.
- For businesses, interior and exterior service is often necessary, especially when food or foot traffic increases the risk of infestation.
Dan’s goal is simple: stop problems before they start and reduce the “what-ifs” that pests bring.
