"Help my dad get rid of his squirrel problem. Put up cage in the corner of roof. Came back a week later to remove and reseal the hole that squirrels made. Did a great job!"
"They gave me an appointment right away when I called about my spider issue and the service provider kept me informed about his arrival time even though I already had a 2 hour window. The provider was great: he explained the spray plan, walked the house with me to see the problem areas, outlined the cost the cost, and finished promptly."
"This is a very good company to work and I would highly recommend them. They were very quick to respond to my inquiry and had someone out the next day. I really appreciated their approach of humane removal of the animal and fixing the problem. They communicated every step of the way and all technicians were excellent."
"Critter control would have been a fine company to work with but when they reviewed the pigeon problems under our solar panels they passed on the job as putting screening around the solar field on our roof was a bit out of their scope of work and suggested we get the solar panel company to "finish the job" which they eventually did with some persistent pressure."
"Michelle is wonderful to work with and is always so helpful and prompt. The other office staff that I've had contact with has been great also. The technicians also seem to be very knowledgeable and skilled."
"We were very happy with Barrett Pest Control. They were professional, courteous, punctual, and did a thorough job. We contacted two other companies before deciding on Barrett and we are feel we made the right choice."
"Tyler did a great job installing bird protection around our solar panels on a very steep roof. He also cleaned all the pigeon droppings but is coming back to clean one of the gutters he couldn't reach with the ladder he was using. So I'm very satisfied."

There are a few ways to keep pesky bugs away from your garden. One option you have is to plant flowers so beneficial insects like ladybugs can control pests for you. A similar method is companion planting, which means you’ll grow vegetables that’ll discourage pests, like garlic, onions, and basil. The best pest prevention method will depend on the bugs you have issues with and the plants in your garden.
No single deterrent will work 100 percent of the time, so we suggest combining deterrents to ensure your seed has the best possible chance to grow. Using bird netting over your seed, with physical deterrents like mylar tape coupled with hanging bird feeders at the edges of your growing area—and removing any bird’s nests, if possible—will give your seeds the best possible chance for success.
If a wild animal enters your yard, prioritize safety for yourself and the animal. Remember to avoid direct contact and always keep a safe distance. Contact local authorities or a wildlife rehabilitation center if the animal is hurt or in distress. Both sources should be able to guide you on how to proceed and send help if needed. Please wait for the animal to leave naturally for non-threatening situations, as many will. To deter future visits, implement measures like securing trash cans, sealing entry points, and removing potential food sources.
The cost of pest control services depends on various factors, but the average homeowner pays around $175, with a typical range of $100 to $500. Your final cost will be influenced by the type of pest, the size and severity of the infestation, and the number of treatments needed.
Service costs also vary by frequency:
One-time service: $300–$550
Initial visit for ongoing service: $150–$300
Monthly visits: $40–$70
Quarterly visits: $100–$300
Annual visits: $300–$550
For specific pest examples, getting rid of spiders typically costs between $100 and $300, whereas a termite infestation can cost from $230 to $2,500 or more, depending on the extent of the damage.
Pest control and wildlife removal are different services. Pest control specialists typically handle insects and bugs, often using chemicals and poisonous sprays for extermination. Wildlife removal professionals, on the other hand, focus on larger animals. They prioritize humane methods like trapping and relocation, using poison only as a last resort. For insect problems, contact a pest control professional; for issues with other animals, an animal or wildlife removal specialist is the correct choice.
