Fortunately they were able to locate the issue and remove the carcass. Thank you Donahue termite control. I would definitely recommend them to everyone looking for extermination needs!"

"Pest Busters is reliable and responsible, They eliminated my rodent problem under the house and in the attic. I then had them clean up the attic and remove all the old insulation and install new insulation. All the work was completed on schedule. I can count on Pest Busters to do an excellent job."

"James Clifton is a knowledgable contractor, and a gentleman too. His employees were well-versed and worked very efficiently. His recommendations brought our attic up to code, removed and replaced the insulation with improved material, and also solved some electrical problems. I would recommend him to my friends and neighbors."

"Jetty Pest, came every week to help me out with my recent rodent problem. They were kind courteous. Let me know when they were on their way and informed me after every visit how many traps were triggered they stayed with us until the problem was resolved. Could not recommend them more."

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

Most types of lizards are active during warm summer daylight, especially when temperatures rise above 65 degrees Fahrenheit. Some lizards take cover under rocks or burrows on sweltering days to escape the heat, reemerging in the cooler afternoon. It is important to note that lizards are cold-blooded creatures that depend on their environment to regulate their body temperature.

Groundhogs love to eat a variety of plant matter. This includes beans, peas, sunflowers, tender greens such as leafy vegetables, clover, dandelion, and alfalfa, and sweet fruits such as apples and berries. Groundhogs eat up to a pound and a half of plant matter each day, so household gardens often become their prime target.

Deer rely on scent to tell them what’s safe and unsafe, so effective deer repellents have to be pungent. Make your own natural repellent by combining a beaten egg, one tablespoon of cooking oil, one tablespoon of dish soap, and a half cup of milk. Pour it into a spray bottle and spray around your garden, avoiding anything you will want to eat later. This stinky repellent will ward off any deer that want to make your produce their next meal. But keep in mind that if your windows are nearby, the scent may waft over.

DIY treatments may help minor issues, but professionals provide long-term solutions and prevent recurrence.

Like many other rodents, squirrels can be a little difficult to get rid of (especially in the case of an infestation), but the best approach is to make the place as unattractive to squirrels as possible. If you do have an infestation inside your home, then professional help may be necessary so you can lay as many traps as possible.
