"I have called on Nick to help me several times over the last several months.  He has done everything from fixing fences to refreshing my landscaping with absolute professionalism.  He is my "go-to" guy because he seems to be able to do anything.  He is efficient, punctual, affordable, and a problem solver.  My only reluctance in posting this recommendation is that he will become so busy that I won't be able get him as quickly as I might want to."

"Joe to the rescue! I was having the worst Monday ever. I knocked down my mailbox with my car this morning. Joe came right over and saved the day! He was prompt, polite, knowledge, friendly and courteous. I couldn't be happier with the service he provided. I now have a mailbox that I know will last many, many years. Thank you, Joe!!"

"Hired Feliciano Remodeling to replace part of a fence. They gave an honest quote and completed the job expertly. They made sure we were happy with the finished project. Our neighbor has already hired them for another fencing job and we have a few other projects we will be bringing them on for."

Animal Fencing FAQs, answered by experts

Whether dryer sheets can keep squirrels away is a bit of a mystery because the evidence is entirely anecdotal. Many households claim to have success with using dryer sheets for keeping squirrels away by placing them throughout their attics, yards, on a clothesline, and any other area where squirrels like to run through. Squirrels do not like strong scents, so if you try using dryer sheets, the ones with the strongest scent may be the most effective.

There's anecdotal evidence that apple cider vinegar does help to repel mice. But the best way to repel mice is to keep your home scrupulously clean and seal up any obvious entry points. If you already have a mouse infestation, apple cider vinegar won’t get rid of the critters. It’s usually worth the cost of professional pest control to make sure a serious mouse problem is eradicated completely.

Small animals, particularly rats and mice, like to burrow inside pool heaters. To keep them out, seal any entry points with caulk or steel wool. Then, place mothballs inside or around your pool heater. As a final measure of protection, you can cover the pool heater in hardware cloth or wood paneling to further block entry points.

Squirrels have a strong sense of smell and can be deterred by various scents they dislike. Effective options include peppermint oil, rosemary, garlic, cinnamon, white vinegar, coffee grounds, and predator urine. Squirrels also have a strong aversion to capsaicin, the compound that makes chili peppers hot, making capsaicin-based repellents a good choice for protecting specific areas like gardens or bird feeders. For a DIY solution, you can create a garlic and vinegar spray and apply it daily. Additionally, placing strong-smelling items like certain soaps or dryer sheets near where squirrels frequent can also be effective.

Badgers have a strong sense of smell, so it’s possible you can deter them with strong scents, such as applying citronella oil to the bottom of your fence, adding crushed scotch bonnet peppers sprinkled throughout your garden, or mixing both of these into a solution to spray around your home and garden.
