"We have lived in our (1990â s) house for 3+ years and have had a problem with small insects in the kitchen. In that time, $$$ was spent on tons of bug spray, plug in traps with sticky pads and fancy LEDâ s -nothing worked. Frustrated and tired of worthless home remedies, I called the Pros at Home Seal to do what they do best. Should have called them 3 years ago. In a few hours our problem was solved/Sealed! Shawn and his staff are very professional and knowledgeable. I received texts with photos explaining exactly what needed to be done and was updated in real time as the job was being completed. The whole experience was pleasant and best of all - No More Bugs!! GREAT JOB!! Thank you Home Seal!"

"Outstanding!! Excellent service. Albert (owner) was very knowledgeable with all the different types and species of pests and the best method for controlling them. I called him for eliminating palmetto bugs in our home but he also treated the outside of our home for spiders, bees, wasps, and mud daubers (something I didn't even know about). He was very thorough and treated both inside and outside of our home, including the garage. This was the first time I've ever needed pest control and didn't bother calling other pest control services since I thought his price was very reasonable. The treatment was immediate for eliminating the palmetto bugs and long lasting. He was also readily available when I called him afterwards with questions. I fully trust him and would definitely recommend him. Thank you, Albert!! Now, I can relax..."

Pest Control FAQs, answered by experts

Even if you have extreme ophidiophobia (fear of snakes), don’t try to shoot or kill them with a shovel. Besides being pretty cruel, killing snakes in most states is illegal unless your life is at risk and many species are protected. 

Plus, you're putting yourself at greater risk using these techniques if it goes wrong and the now-angry snake is venomous.

The most widely touted method for removing fruit flies is the combination of apple cider vinegar and dish soap. Since the soap causes the flies to sink, you can leave this trap open for maximum potency and easy fly access.

You will need to discuss with your pest control expert to know when and what to clean after the treatment. Sometimes, you may have to wait a couple of weeks for deep cleaning to avoid wiping up the treatment they applied.

However, you’ll want to wipe down any surfaces you use for food prep and eating. Before the treatment, you’ll also want to make sure that items such as pet dishes and children's toys won’t be exposed to the chemicals.

Keeping birds away from a porch can involve a combination of strategies. Start with cleaning your porch. Remove food, debris, and plants that may be attracting feathered friends. Afterward, install physical deterrents like netting or spikes. Next, top off your porch with a decoy or two—and owl or hawk works. When wondering how to keep birds off the porch, it is always best to use humane efforts that won't harm winged creatures or the environment.

Naturally occurring EPA-registered Bti products are an effective way to kill off mosquitoes at the larval stage. And, although they won’t wipe them out, there are lots of natural repellents that make your yard less attractive to mosquitoes. Try planting some marigolds, lemon thyme, or other plants they’ll steer clear of, light a citronella candle or two, or lay some bug-offensive cedar mulch.
