Advanced Pest Control, Inc., and its team of experts offer help and service to eliminate vermin infesting your home and office. You can count on us to provide quality work, and to treat the problem to your satisfaction. Our pest control service extends to the needs of both residential and commercial customers, utilizing modern methods of pest control for the best results. We aim to provide quality, efficient work at the best price! We handle all kinds of pests

"I previously had hired a different company with extremely high grades and great reviews on Angies List. They talked a good game, charged me good money, and did absolutely nothing to solve my problem. I did not know how bad they were until I called Advanced Pest Control who were excellent in every way. Jessie came out to the house, and in 5 minutes told me more about mice and how to get rid of them than the last company did in two visits. He did an extremely thorough inspection around the entire perimeter of the house indicating possible entry points and, where possible, sealing up or alleviating the issue. He asked me a ton of questions about our home and yard, and provided me a wealth of knowledge, including tips on maintaining the yard to discourage mice. After the inspection, he set traps and bait stations, told me what to look for, and how to clean up the mess the mice had made in my basement. After the initial visit and a couple of follow ups to determine progress, there is zero evidence of any additional mice in the house now going on two years, which is pretty amazing considering how easily they were entering previously. Jessie has since advised that we likely don't even need an annual check up given the lack of evidence now for two years (although I will continue to have him do regular checkups). The price for the initial inspection and treatments and follow up visits were far below the previous company I used. It also helps that Jessie is a great guy, fun to talk to, and is more than willing to impart his extensive knowledge. His office staff are also great and very helpful. I would recommend Advance Pest Control as highly as any contractor I have used in the 10 years I have been in my home"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Most spiders are harmless and are more interested in finding and eating insects than trying to bite you or your family members. Certain spiders in your home may be advantageous if you have an issue with insects. Most spiders are non-venomous and have small mouths, so even if they did bite you, it wouldn’t be enough to cause any harm.

However, some species of spiders can cause harm if you are a victim of their spider bite, including the black widow and brown recluse varieties. Both species’ venom is poisonous, and you should seek medical help if bitten.

Spiders have lots of scent-sensitive hairs on their legs. Scented oils they aren’t fans of can act as a natural spider repellent to help keep their populations at bay when you rub them around your home’s entry points. Studies suggest mint and chestnut oils are two scents that spiders hate.

Moles make mounds that look like tiny volcanoes, and they are sometimes obscure. They're stealthy creatures that feast on insects. Gophers, on the other hand, create half-moon mounds while digging deeper tunnels. These critters chew on roots and plants, so it is often easier to spot the damage created. Also, moles are usually smaller, with velvety fur, tiny eyes, and shovel-like hands for digging. Gophers are larger rodents with prominent front teeth and external cheek pouches for carrying food. That'll give you the scoop on whether moles or gophers hang out in your yard.

The best time of day to spray your yard to repel ticks is in the early morning hours or early in the evening. These times of day tend to be cooler compared with the middle of the day when the sun is hotter. Otherwise, the solution could dry out quicker and prove less effective.

When it comes to keeping birds from doing their business on your porch rails, you have several DIY options and home remedies you can try: 

  • Tie a fishing line from one end of the deck post to the other. Birds won’t be able to see the line across the railing, so they can’t land on it.  

  • Hang wind chimes close by, which may scare birds away. 

  • Apply a bird gel repellent to the railings, which contains smells that birds generally don’t like. Or, similarly, you can apply citronella or lemon oil around the railings, since birds don’t like strong smells.
