"A FANTASTIC SERVICE!!! Dustin came to my home. Evaluated my problem with roof rats and squirrels...THROUGHLY photographed and pinpointed the problem areas. After 2 weeks the problem was eliminated plus I have a warranty, which no one else would give. I had paid to have this service done three other times in the last year. Sometimes these fellows had to come twice a day. I text one of their mobile phone phones. They arrived & removed pest caught in cages and returned to the forest in a humane way. Dustin, Phil and Shane are a great bunch of guys with integrity. I wish they did other types of work, because you can count on them to do what they say they will do. Obviously, after a a few days to a week, you need to take some responsibility and let them know you hear something has been rattling around. You are not their only customer. They do excellent work. In one day one of the guys traveled to Foley; back to my house in PNS and then to Niceville. They earn their money and all are hardworking!"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Preventing rats and mice from getting into the attic can be challenging, but it’s not impossible. Here are a few steps you can take to keep them looking elsewhere for a new place to call home:

  • Block or cover any potential access holes

  • Keep piles or stacks of firewood or other materials away from the house

  • Seal food and garbage in containers to prevent rodents from chewing through or getting in

Like any other animal, rats are attracted to food sources, water, and shelter. Clean up food messes right away, don’t leave pet food out, and secure your garbage to make your home less appealing. Fix leaky pipes and dripping faucets, and declutter spaces that rats might think to nest in.

Groundhogs are non-aggressive animals that are afraid of humans. They forage for vegetation in yards and gardens, so they can often be seen as a nuisance if you spot one on your property. That said, if you happen to get bitten or scratched by a fearful groundhog, be sure to get checked by a doctor, as they could carry infections or diseases like rabies, Lyme, or the rare tularemia.

In addition to a clean home, fleas dislike oils made from plants that are naturally bug-resistant or poisonous to bugs. That includes myrtle, mint, eucalyptus, and especially cedar oil. Common household remedies like baking soda, garlic and apple vinegar don’t have any effect on fleas. Don’t spray essential oils directly on your own skin or your pets (and their bedding, because it can be a skin irritant. Stay away from tea tree oil. In pure form it can be very toxic to pets. Always ask your vet if you have any questions.

Nope, not typically, especially if a continuous food source is available. Rats will leave their nesting spots briefly to forage for food and water and then quickly return. The inherent danger of exposure keeps their departures short-lived. It's why resolving a minor infestation takes about three weeks, while a severe one can stretch to three months. Swift action is crucial to prevent rat populations from establishing a lasting presence.
