"After getting jerked around by multiple other "reputable" HVAC companies, I found Juan, and his installers, a rare gem. Clear and not pushy. Punctual, professional, and thoughtful work. I will by solely recommending them for any future work amongst colleagues, and using their services exclusively for any work needed on my home. Really. Do it once with Cano, and you don't have to do it again."
"Just a "simple" ecobee install. Tech had a minor issue with my AC unit (it's 100%my unit) and didn't even attempt to upcharge us.
Very honest and knowledgeable company. Will absolutely recommend to everyone I know."
"I have used Kyle twice now, and each time I was very pleased with the job of his handyman. I moved into a new home about a year ago that required multiple finishing touches, such as installing doorstops, bathroom cabinets, replacing trim, installing a ceiling fan etc. I recently used Kyle again for some ongoing maintenance projects. I found his price to be very reasonable, and the work to be high quality. Our handyman was Gregorio each time, and he is amazing! I would recommend Kyle's team to friends and family for sure."
"Very knowledgeable, professional, and great customer service! Penguin, serviced our central AC & Heat and they explained everything to us before performing the work. They also replaced our moldy insulation in our attic. They packed and transported the old moldy insulations, ensuring that the mold does not spread, and they left our house free of any mess. I'd recommend Penguin Heating and Air to anybody in need of AC/Heat service, repair, or installation."
"We had a split mini system installed.. They removed old A/C,@ducts in attic and condenser outside and hauled away.. They are expensive, but they do quality work. Technicians well trained and know what they are doing. Friendly and very neat.."
"I first used Patagonia HVAC when my home AC broke. Guillermo, the owner, responded promptly and provided a quote for the repair. He worked with me to find the best new system within my budget and completed the installation within days. He was incredibly professional, and my AC has been working wonderfully ever since! I later hired him when the AC went down at my grocery store, and Guillermo had it repaired the very same day we called. I couldn’t recommend Patagonia HVAC more highly!"
"Nery from Drain Right Plumbing just completed a service of our 2 HVAC systems and added 2 Nest thermostats in a very professional manner! He was excellent! Covered his shoes everytime he came in, knew exactly what he was doing! Very impressed!"
Scent deterrents like ammonia, vinegar, mothballs, and pepper can help keep coyotes away, but these are best used in tandem with other preventative measures. Remember that ammonia and vinegar can kill your plants and/or grass, so it’s best to soak rags in these substances or spray them on hardscaped areas to avoid damaging your landscape.
If you’ve ruled out small cockroaches, some other bugs you might mistake for bed bugs are carpet beetles, bat bugs, and booklice. However, they’re usually found in different parts of the home. Carpet beetles are found in fabrics and carpets, bat bugs live in attics, and booklice dwell around books and damp areas.
Deers have an extraordinarily strong sense of smell, which means they can react strongly to certain scents. Lavender, garlic, mint, cinnamon, clove, and human hair are some of the most offensive scents for deer. You can try mixing some of these pungent oils or scents with a spray mixture and adding them to your garden.
While the term “gnat” is often used as a blanket term for tiny flying insects like fungus gnats and fruit flies, they are different insects. The primary distinctions are in their appearance, diet, and habitat. Fungus gnats are typically darker (gray or black) with long legs and are attracted to damp soil and decaying plant matter, often living in houseplants. In contrast, fruit flies are lighter in color (tan) with shorter legs and are drawn to overripe fruit, high-fructose organic substances, and other sweet materials.
The best hornet repellent includes a variety of essential oils such as peppermint, clove, geranium, and lemongrass, all of which have a pungent smell that hornets can’t stand.
