"I can never go back to traditional pest control after the experience I have received from Flex Pest and their ?Pro Shield? tech. It?s pretty much a fancy name for THE BEST SERVICE EVER. Yard treatment included in every service, in winter the prioritize rodents(and proactively seal entry points). Brown recluse at every other companies are $300+ and they INCLUDE THEM! These guys are a one stop shop for all pest needs, and beat everyone in value 10 fold. Keep up the good work Flex Pest"

"I cannot recommend this business highly enough! I had to hire them because the last so called professional business chain pest removal did not remove the animals or fix the roof damage even though they were happy to take my money. The wonderful people at Natural State Wildlife Solutions did a VERY thorough examination of the property and animal damage. They gave me a multi tiered quote and explained the services fully. The prices were reasonable and fair. It was very evident that the care, safety, and protection of the animals was a priority. Everyone in the business knows the laws in our state and strictly enforces them. They were kind, supportive, and incredibly efficient at what they do. This was probably some of the best customer service I have ever received. I felt very well taken care of and so were the animals that I had removed. Top notch quality in every category....there's no reason to call any other company, this is the only one you need."

"Terminix was quick to respond and to get out here for a termite inspection, which is what we needed. However, they signed us up for pest control and said their agent would be out to care for us right away. So far haven’t seen him yet. Will give 5 stars if that turns out well."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Some of the smells we love are, thankfully, pretty putrid for mosquitoes. A few essential oils that might have them swarming in the other direction include:

  • Lavender

  • Citronella

  • Eucalyptus

  • Cinnamon

  • Thyme

Be careful how and where you apply essential oils around pets and children, and top them off regularly so they stay effective.

Several skin conditions and insect bites can be mistaken for a tick bite, including mosquito bites, spider bites, chigger bites, and even allergic reactions. Tick bites often start as small red bumps, which may develop into a bullseye-shaped rash if Lyme disease is transmitted. However, similar-looking rashes can result from conditions like eczema, ringworm, or hives. Without a visible tick, it can be hard to confirm the source, so it’s best to monitor the area for changes and consult a doctor if symptoms like fever, fatigue, or worsening redness occur.

Brown recluse spiders are most active at night. As the name “recluse” suggests, they prefer the dark, which is when they hunt small insects and other spiders. Regarding the time of year, brown recluses are more likely to be seen during warmer months, typically between March and October. 

Yes. Cellar spiders are predatory and feed on other insects, including other spiders. They eat flies, mosquitos, gnats, moths, and larger prey. That larger prey includes venomous spiders like the brown recluse and the black widow.  Basically, a cellar spider is pretty brave and will feed on anything that gets into its web, no matter the size.

Roaches have a strong sense of smell and are repelled by a variety of potent aromas. Scents that can help deter them include citrus (such as lemon and orange), herbs like peppermint, mint, basil, thyme, and oregano, spices like bay leaves, cinnamon, clove, and garlic, as well as lavender, eucalyptus, citronella, tea tree oil, and vinegar.

You can use these scents in several ways to create an unwelcoming environment for roaches:

  • Plants: Place mint or lavender plants in your home or garden.

  • Powders and Leaves: Sprinkle garlic powder or place crushed bay leaves and citrus peels in high-risk areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and entry points.

  • Sprays: Create a diluted solution with scents like lemon or vinegar to spray in your home. These can also be used in cleaning products or as room fresheners.

  • Essential Oils: While essential oils of these scents can be used, be cautious as they can be toxic to pets if inhaled.

It is important to note that while these smells can help keep roaches away, they typically do not kill them and may not be enough to drive out an existing infestation entirely. For best results, combine these scent-based deterrents with regular cleaning. Be sure to clean up all food spills, crumbs, and dirty dishes promptly, and keep trash cans covered with a tight-fitting lid to remove potential food sources.
