"DVH Turf Management provided service as well as or actually better than what we had originally expected. Service Tech Darren was wonderful, very courteous, professional, informative and helpful. Our lawn was initially all sodded three years ago. However, first thing - he did an immediate and thorough analysis and before I knew it, was applying a full chemical treatment of "weed & feed". Next, he pointed out sections of our lawn where undesirable grasses and weeds had taken root. He provided a full explanation for a long-term plan and controlled maintenance to bring our lawn back to health. So, I have to apologize for my previous hasty review and offer a BIG Thanks to DVH - Great Service. Also to note: there are at least four neighbors within a few houses of ours that are now utilizing their service."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Certain strong smells may help repel bats, though this is not a foolproof method and is best used in conjunction with other deterrence strategies. Scents like peppermint oil, eucalyptus, cinnamon, cloves, and mint are often suggested as natural remedies. To create a spray, you can mix two cups of warm water with half a cup of sugar and a few drops of your preferred essential oil. Apply this mixture using a spray bottle to possible entry points and throughout the affected area, such as an attic. While this home remedy is popular, evidence supporting its effectiveness is limited.

Bed bugs are highly sensitive to heat, so a hot blast with a hairdryer can draw them out of hiding. Providing a source of warmth, such as a heating pad or hot-water bottle, can attract and lure them out. Bed bug monitors and traps with pheromones can also be effective.

To determine if you have a rat or mouse infestation, look for several key differences. The most obvious is the size of the rodent: rats are significantly larger with thicker bodies, while mice are much smaller and more slender. You can also identify them by their droppings; rat droppings are larger and rounder, about the size of a raisin, while mouse droppings are smaller, like a grain of rice, and often have pointed ends. Other signs include the sounds they make, as rats produce louder scratching and gnawing noises due to their size. Behaviorally, rats tend to be more cautious, whereas mice are more curious and might be seen more often. Additionally, rat nests are typically larger than those of mice. If you are unable to see the pest or find clear evidence, a professional inspection can provide a definitive identification.

Yes, getting rid of bed bugs without an exterminator is possible. However, it will take significantly longer and more effort than professional extermination. Using a HEPA vacuum, steaming, sealing, and other DIY removal methods work with consistent effort. Plus, it won’t guarantee to clear the entire infestation, so you may need to apply several follow-up treatments.

Armadillos are not considered friendly animals. They are solitary and tend to avoid human interaction. While not aggressive, they can be shy and reclusive, often scurrying away when approached. Armadillos may carry diseases, so handling them is not advised.
