"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."
"It's been one week, since we got the pest control for roaches done. The roaches have certainly decreased, but not completely wiped out. Still waiting for that to happen."
"did a good job of explaining how their treatments can be effective in rodent proofing our property Thorough in their work. Pleasant. Professional. Courteous."
You’ll want to locate all areas in your home that could be a potential entry point for mice, such as doors, windows, vents, baseboards, holes, and cracks in your home’s foundation. Don’t forget to check less-obvious areas like the attic, plumbing and sewers, and even the roof and gutters. If you check these spots and don’t find any signs of mice, consider hiring a pest control pro to dig deeper into potential hiding spots.
The time of day that most snakes are active is at night. This is when they prefer to hunt since they can do so under the cover of darkness, out of sight of predators and the prey they stalk. However, some snake species prefer very hot temperatures and are strictly active during the day.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), fleas can carry human disease-causing pathogens for Plague, Flea-borne typhus, and Cat scratch disease. These diseases are caused by fleas such as Oropsylla montana, Xenopsylla cheopis, and Ctenocephalides felis, and are commonly found in rural areas of the western United States, California, Texas, and Hawaii. Fleaborne parasites like tapeworms can also be spread to people and animals if they accidentally swallow an infected flea, and small children are at a higher risk. Symptoms may not be present in most infected people.
Some plants that are toxic to animals or insects are also toxic to people. Daffodils, for example, are considered poisonous to humans (although they are rarely fatal). Most of the other plants listed above, however, are safe (and delicious!) for humans to eat, including basil, rosemary, and lemongrass.
While it may seem counterintuitive, it is best to continue sleeping in your bed even if you have a bed bug infestation. If you move to another room, the bed bugs may follow you, which can spread the infestation to other parts of your home. To minimize bites while you sleep, wear protective clothing that covers as much of your body as possible, such as long-sleeved shirts, long pants, and socks. In the meantime, you should also isolate any potentially infested belongings and take steps to kill the bed bugs on your mattress as quickly as possible while waiting for professional treatment.
