It all started with a single employee back in 1992. There was just the owner, Josh Broughton, a truck, and a simple fumigation system. Back then only cockroach extermination services were available. But as the years added on, other forms of insects were added onto the roster. Next was termites, as that usually merits fast response from homeowners. Nowadays Father and Son Pest Control can take on any problem no matter what the species.

The Aardwolf is a member of the Hyena family and lives in the plains and open woodland of eastern and southern Africa. It weights between fifteen and thirty-one pounds and feeds primarily on termites, which it hunts at night. The aardwolf's keen hearing helps it locate termites, and its long, sticky tongue licks them right up. Most hyenas have strong teeth and jaws and can eat and digest flesh and bone, but the aardwolf's stubby molars can't chew meat and its jaw is too weak to eat anything other than bugs. Aardwolves are also unlike members of the hyena family in that they forage alone. Aardwolves live in their own burrows or in dens abandoned by other animals. On sunny days they spend most of the morning lying outside, but when it's rainy they might stay in their dens the entire day.

Pest Control questions, answered by experts
There is very limited scientific evidence to support the efficacy of essential oils against bed bugs and they are very unlikely to kill the species. However, a 2021 study published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) found that compounds in essential oils like clove oil, lemongrass, citronella, and bergamot could repel the insects.
Rats are at their peak activity at night. They use the darkness as a cover to explore, hunt for food, and quench their thirst. Their super senses, especially their night vision and sharp hearing, are tailor-made for nighttime adventures, helping them navigate. This preference for nighttime shenanigans is because they want to steer clear of daytime dangers and predators. They feel more secure when the sun goes down, allowing them to roam freely while keeping a low profile.
Mice, rats, and other rodents are survivalists. They've developed a set of skills that can help them survive even in challenging, predatory conditions. For that reason, they can be hard to get rid of once they've staked their claim in your home. Often, the best way to get rid of rodents is to keep them from getting into your home in the first place.
Wasps tend to be more aggressive and defensive than bees. Both will sting to defend themselves or their colony or nest. But many bees have barbed stingers, which means they can’t pull them out of the skin after stinging, allowing them to sting only once. When provoked, wasps can sting multiple times, making them a more menacing pest.
While carpet beetles won’t bite you like bed bugs do, they still aren’t pests you’d want to find in your home. Carpet beetles in their larva stage can be voracious and cause a lot of damage as they eat through fabrics on furniture, clothing, bedding, rugs, and other materials. If you see carpet beetles, you’ll want to have an exterminator come by to assess the damage and control the infestation.
