"Robert Myers is SUCH a nice guy. Two of his crew (didn't get their names) were respectful and knew just what they were supposed to do. Robert first met with us personally to inspect our house and right away had his guys doing the job including dry rot repair, spot-hitting the areas of detected infestation of termites and went out of their way to match our house paint stucco and trim colors when they saw that our original paint didn't match as well anymore. We would recommend 805 Termite Control highly. Robert knew we needed the job done for escrow and didn't stack on a lot of other additional jobs ... only did what was necessary to pass inspection for our refi...and we know we'll need to have our house tented at some point. When we decide to do it, we won't go to anyone else but 805 Termite/Robert Myers."

"Wanted to leave a review for the awesome crew of pest busters . Their response was super quick and Richard came out the next day to do a thorough inspection. He took the time to walk around and point out all the problem area to me and my husband and clearly explaining our options . Since they completed all the work . All the banging and scratching noises from the rats have basically disappeared! Highly recommend pest busters"

"We have been using Western Extermination for years and have always been happy with the service and professionalism. We have been lucky to have Raul Gonzalez as our exterminator over the years and would highly recommend his work. Not only are all issues handled quickly and well, but Raul also is full of information and insight on how to best keep our establishment free from pests."

"I haven't yet hired AET for the actual control process. Eric came over for consultation and inspection and gave me a friendly and excellent analysis about time and money involved in a way that is aligned with my financial condition and lifestyle. I would definitely recommend a AET inspection and subsequent action to anyone who is suspicious of possible infestation in their apartments/houses."

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.

To kill fruit flies outdoors, you'll want to make a homemade insecticide or find a plant-safe, nontoxic product. Fill a garden sprayer with your chosen solution and apply it on your plants and around the base of your home's exterior. Take care to limit your exposure to insecticides, as they can irritate skin and eyes. Always rinse garden fruits and vegetables before eating them.

No, ground bees are not detrimental to the health of your lawn. In fact, the small holes created by ground bees can actually offer beneficial aeration which moisturizes and nourishes the ground. Additionally, ground bees are highly regarded as vital pollinators, meaning they help plants to reproduce. Unless you’re battling a severe infestation, leaving ground bees undisturbed can boost the health of your yard and the environment.

This varies based on the circumstance. Chemical-based pest control baits and poisons are usually the most potent, but they are unsafe to use around children and pets, so they won’t be a fit for every household.

Safer alternatives, such as boric acid and food-grade diatomaceous earth, can work as well, though they should still stay out of reach. Aside from that, the best thing any DIY-er can do is make their place uninviting by sealing off entry points, eliminating clutter, and maintaining a clean home.

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.
