"Just checked roof and no pigeons. Awesome! Brandyn of On Edge Pest Control contacted us promptly. Upon inspection, he provided options to resolve problem along with explanation of each process, cost, and pros/cons. Quotes were very reasonable. Once method decided, work began almost immediately. Communication was easy. With other companies, had waited weeks or months to hear back if any response received at all. Brandyn is a knowledgeable, personable, honest, hard-working conscientious young man. Definitely recommend On Edge Pest Control. Just wish we had found Brandyn prior to spending many hundreds of dollars and wasting months of frustration trying to work with another company without success. Try On Edge Pest Control."
"Very knowledgeable guy who seem to know what he’s doing. Don’t know results of spraying. Have had much rain since. Will have to see if it worked. Terminex will spray again the beginning of next month."
"Recently purchased home. Wanted to start a pest control service. After research, went with Bulwark for their outstanding ratings. Their service was prompt and the tech was very professional. Answered all my questions and took the time to go in detail on their service. My only small complaint was no treatments above eye level. The tech was able to de-web a few high corners and that was fantastic. But personaly, I wish I could just napalm the place and "feel" 100% sure that every nook and cranny has been treated. Outside of that personal opinion, the service itself was exemplary and would recommend it to anyone."
"We have used Western Exterminator for years, and have always been pleased. The past two years the inspector who has done the termite inspection has found termite infestation we were unaware of. My big issue is the delay between inspection and treatment. The infestation was identified on January 30. At that time we were told Western would call us to schedule treatment. On February 4 they called, and told me the earliest they can perform treatment is March 24!!! Online information states that a large colony of termites can eat 1 pound of wood in a day. So, there is the potential of a lot of damage done between now and the treatment, and also the potential for spread of this active infestation to adjacent areas of my house that will not be covered by the March 24 treatment. This near two month delay seems an unacceptable business practice."
"I cannot give enough stars for excellent service. They eradicated an extreme bed bug infestation at our parentâ s home, also confirmed termites and treated to control that problem as well. Their ability to haul away infested furniture & carpeting prior to treatment was a Godsend because dumpsters are not allowed in their subdivision. One hire for everything made it all easier & life better! Thx"

"I have a contract with them so I have to use them again. It pays for itself eventually if you get good repair people. You don't control who they send."
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.
Earwigs are omnivores, so they have a varied diet. Generally, they feast on decaying organic matter, leaves, flowers, and vegetables. They’ll also eat other insects (dead or alive) like aphids, sowbugs, and mites.
The best time of day to spray your yard to repel ticks is in the early morning hours or early in the evening. These times of day tend to be cooler compared with the middle of the day when the sun is hotter. Otherwise, the solution could dry out quicker and prove less effective.
First, you’ll start noticing fewer flying termites in the air. Second, you’ll see fewer ground-based termites near the entrances to their colony, and eventually none at all. Third, if you have access to part of the nest like mud tubes, you can scour away a section and watch it. If the tubes don’t get repaired, the nest is probably doomed. Again, it can take several weeks for termites to fully go away, depending on the type of treatment.
A flea can live as long as 100 days when it has a live host to feed on. They tend to live a much shorter life when they’re on a short-haired dog or cat versus a pet with longer hair. Without a host, fleas will typically only survive for about one to two weeks.
