"After the prior tenants moved out of the condo I bought, roaches were running around during the day. I had Gorilla come out once while the painters were there and it helped a lot. A few weeks later, there were still some stragglers. So they came out again for no additional charge and put spots of organic pest killer (I have cats and had to be sure it wouldn't hurt them)."

"A yard worker walking on the small hill near the sidewalk in front of our house
stepped in a yellow jacket nest we didn't know was there.  These pests are
mean suckers.  Another worker who was close by was bitten twice by these
pests and they buzzed around him as he ran up our 42 front stairs. 
(He's OK and was not bitten again.)  We'd used Eloy's services once before
to remove a yellow jacket nest half-way up our steep front hill and were so
impressed by his work that we called him right away and he showed up less than
2 hours later to remove the nest.  He warned us there could be some
cosmetic damage but we told him we didn't care.  And it turned out that
the white coated hole he left is a barely visible disruption to the patch of
ivy and is actually consoling to see as proof the pests are gone.
We've used some great contractors from Angie's list but Eloy is the best of the
best:  price, quality, pride in his work, punctuality, integrity, personableness?. Recently
we recommended him to a friend who used his services and who was equally impressed. 
And not motivated just by money but more by building his business and doing a great
job, Eloy stopped by a few months ago to advise us on a potential yellow jacket
problem near our back yard barbecue and he didn't charge us for that
visit.  And this time he advised us to put up some yellow jacket traps to
gauge the extent of the problem in the back yard.  We bought a trap at
Home Depot and hung it last night and this morning there were 15 dead yellow
jackets inside.  We'll be contacting Eloy again soon to see if thinks we
need to hire him for his undetected nest removal service where he hangs
containers with a poison that the yellow jackets bring back to their
nests.  We trust Eloy to let us know if we should use his services for
this or try to handle it ourselves.

"Trap snapped 2 hours after he left. Unfortunately it didn’t kill instantly and I had to finish the job as both my husband and exterminator not present. Had to put poor critter out of its misery. We are city folks living in country for first time and have a lot to learn. Yet very efficient company that uses traps and chemistry nontoxic to environment and my animals. We also have wasp and ant problems to be addressed later in year. Have great confidence they will help."

"I am a repeat customer and this is not because their service suck, which is not. I am a repeat customer because they go over and beyond to fix our pest problems. Just recently, I called them to handle a rodent problem in one of our property and they again provided a courteous and quality pest control service that has sold us in the first place. Due to the complexity of the problem, they came several times to make sure they have completely removed the pests.

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Preventatives include frequent washing of pet bedding, regular vacuuming, flea-preventative applications, and avoiding infested areas.

Moles live underground and feed on insects. They dig and move through tunnels, usually in meadows or forests but sometimes in lawns and gardens. They are about 6 inches long with large claws, tiny eyes, and hidden ears. 

Shrews do not dig their own tunnels but will use other animals’ tunnels, and are about 3 to 4 inches long. They look similar to mice and feed on insects.

Voles are similar in size to moles but have large eyes and small but visible ears. Rather than eating insects, voles are herbivores that prefer seeds, grasses, and plant roots.

Professional pest control works faster than any DIY method, so it’s the way to go if you want your pest problem gone ASAP. A basic treatment can take place in under six hours, while larger fumigations may take up to a week. You should start noticing a significant reduction in pests within a couple of days, with full results in about a week on average.

Some of the plants listed above, like daffodils, are poisonous to many animals if eaten. But wild animals instinctively avoid them, for the most part. Household pets don’t always have the same survival instinct, which is why it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with common plants that pose a danger to cats and dogs.

Ants hate strong odors such as peppermint, citrus, cinnamon, and essential oils such as lavender and eucalyptus. You can sprinkle cinnamon in the area or combine essential oils with water to form a spray that repels ants in the event of an infestation—just make sure nothing you apply will harm your surfaces, kids, or pets.
