"Iâ m a very picky property manager; frugal but withnletfectionistic tendencies. So many people for hire seem to be either grossly expensive or completely unreliable/incompetent. I shopped around for help removing squirrels in my attic crawl space. Hearing people over formalize the situation as they led me up to huge bills or suggested ongoing prices to make sure the problems was solved was stressful/disappointing. However when Matt the owner called me, he immediately seemed more frank and forthright. He tuned in to my situation and brought up questions showing his level of expertise that placed far more expensive did not think to ask. He was available, ready, and patient. When he came, he was professional and thorough, quick. I was very very happy with Bearclaw Wildlife and with Matt in particular. I definitely will refer back to him with any pest or wildlife issues at my properties. Nice to see a person take pride in their work and their companyâ s name. Keep up the excellence Matt! Thank you!"

"Was very prompt to set traps to address my mole problem. Two moles were caught. He said he would return to set some more traps but I have not seen any new traps set. He said to call him if I see any more damage. I would have liked to have had a little more feedback from Doug."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Bees usually have thicker, fuzzy bodies, while wasps have slender, smooth bodies. Behavior and nesting also differ.

One of the most widespread chemicals used for killing termites is Fipronil. It’s one of the most common insecticides used by termite exterminators to kill termites fast. However, it’s toxic and generally used in outdoor areas only. Popular brand names of termite killers include Taurus, Bifen, Termidor, and BioAdvanced. All insecticides have pros and cons: Some are safer around humans but don’t last as long. Some may kill nearby plants or have power odors. Some are designed for safe indoor bait stations but take much longer to work.

Foxes can catch rabies. However, it is rare, and even rarer for them to pass this disease on to humans. If you do see a fox in your vicinity acting strangely, disorientated, having seizures, or randomly trying to bite, contact your local animal control, police, or Department of Environmental Control. And if you are scratched or bitten by an animal you suspect has rabies, seek medical treatment immediately.

To keep wasps away from your home, you can consult with an exterminator about preventative measures and potential follow-up visits. For a non-lethal approach, consider installing a fake wasp nest, as this can deter wasps from building their own nearby. You can also use natural repellents. Wasps dislike the smell of substances like coffee grounds, cinnamon, and vinegar. Additionally, planting certain plants in your garden or in pots near doors can help repel them; these include eucalyptus, peppermint, lemongrass, and basil.

Homemade raccoon repellents can be a cost-effective and humane method for keeping raccoons off your property. Raccoons despise the smell of vinegar, so keeping a bowl of it near your home can keep them away. Some wildlife companies advise using cayenne pepper or hot sauce sprinkled near your deck or porch as another homemade option.
