"I have been using Mr. Buggs for 3 years for pest control and have been very pleased. I was using another company for my yard, trugreen, and they were horrible. They basically killed my $10,000 lawn. I decided since the pest control was spot on, I would give the lawn service a try. I met with the gentleman and had a laundry list of concerns about my lawn. I waited patiently, because of all the rain, and sure enough he showed up in a timely manner and remembered everything I said and had a plan for it. It truly is great customer service with a feeling that you matter and are not just another dollar sign."

"I thought there's squirrels in my attic. Jim came to the house to give me an estimate. He told me that I have roof rats in the attic . He recommended I call a pest control company since he was not specialized in rats problem. He is very decent and professional. Would highly recommend him for any problem you might have."
"My technicians Bin and Earl were great! They literally came to the house started working immediately,even through in the rain,which they insisted wouldn't slow them down. They agreed lightning would be the only deterrent though ?. They were professional,knowledgeable and courteous. Bin returned for my weekly checkups and was pleased to report to more pests. I would highly recommend this service. Ask for Bin!"
"We used That Simple Pest Control to take care of wasps around and in our home. Adam was great when he came for the initial consultation and patiently answered my MANY questions and throughly explained the process. He was very thorough in finding all the wasp nest - both outside and inside our attic and took the time to find the entry points they were using to come inside. When he came back for the initial treatment he made sure to remove every next he could find and treat our perimeter to avoid them coming back. They use a variety of methods to complete the job - nest removal, spray, powder, perimeter treatment, and yard treatment. I was very impressed with the overall quality as well as the cost and we have signed up to use them on a quarterly basis."
Pantry bugs are rarely able to get into sealed packages, but they may try. If you find pests on or around a sealed food item, check inside to make sure the food is still clean. Not sure whether a package is contaminated? Spread the contents onto a cookie sheet and use a flashlight to look for pests.
Flea eggs can’t take heat, so use that information to your advantage. Take any affected clothes and linens and wash them on a hot setting (140℉ or higher) to kill them off. You can also rid carpets and furniture using heat. After vacuuming all surfaces thoroughly, use a steam mop or cleaner to get rid of the remaining flea eggs and residue.
Flea eggs also can’t handle extreme cold. You could seal affected linens and store them in a freezer.
Yes, humans carry fleas. Although fleas are primarily associated with dogs and cats, they are attracted to the warmth and carbon dioxide of mammals, including humans. The difference is that most fleas will only choose animals as their hosts. They may bite humans, but they don’t tend to stick around on humans for long. The one exception is the Pulex irritans, also called the human flea, which prefers human blood.
Fake owls are a common goose deterrent decoy and one of the most humane ways to scare away geese. Unfortunately, some geese are wise to fake predators. Decoys can be more effective if you move them around frequently or purchase ones with motion features. Decoys that move in the wind are also more effective than stationary decoys.
While water bugs are considered generally harmless to humans, they can bite humans if threatened. Cockroaches are often incorrectly mistaken for water bugs. In this case, cockroaches can bite but are unlikely to bite humans.
Water bug bites can be very painful and cause symptoms such as redness, swelling, and allergic reaction. Bites will usually heal on their own. However, if you experience severe symptoms or an allergic reaction, seek medical help immediately.
