"I was very pleased with the serviceman who came to my house. They were prompt, friendly and thoroughly explained what needed to be done. He was clean and went the extra steps to investigate my problem and make suggestions for how I could continue to prevent problems (showed me how the mice were entering the house and how to fill the hole). I am very pleased with the results! He even took care of pests that I didn't know I had. The elimination of spiders was a true bonus!"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Poison will kill small rodents and can seem like the quick and easy way to get rid of them. But—in addition to its inhumane nature—poison has some drawbacks. First of all, if you have small children or pets in the home, setting out poison isn't the best idea, as your pets or children could ingest it.

Poisoned mice and rodents don't die instantly. Instead, it can take several days for the poison to work its way through their system. In the meantime, there's a chance that a predator, such as a cat, fox, or other mammal, will eat the poisoned rodent and become poisoned themselves.

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.

There aren’t any solutions that can rid your yard of mosquitoes for good. But with a good integrated management strategy that combines repellents, treatments, decluttering, and drainage, you can keep populations in check.

If you find bed bugs on your mattress, your first step is to put your sheets, pillowcases, pillows, and nearby linens into a trash bag and wash them in hot water. Then, vacuum your mattress and the rest of your bedroom, paying special attention to the mattress seams and crevices near your headboard. Next, use one (or more) of the solutions listed above to kill any live bugs, or call an exterminator for a professional treatment.

Raccoons may sometimes leave a property on their own, but this is not guaranteed. For a persistent raccoon infestation, it is advisable to take measures for trapping and removal. After they have been removed, it is important to seal any potential entry points to prevent their return.
