Thank you for considering us. I stared in pest control back in 1971 working for a large national firm. I loved it from the beginning but early on dreamed of owning my own business. Partly to be the master of my own destiny but also to do better by the people I serviced. After 4 years of working in the industry and reading every thing I could get my hands I took the plunge. Fast forward 36 years and today we are 4 employees strong. I know that might not sound like much but we only service the Des Moines metro area so in the very local area, house for house, we are really one of the larger firms. We’re a family business. My wife Donna answers the phone, her 32 years experience along with continued Pest Management education will get you off to a great start on the first phone call. I know it’s many of father’s dreams to work with his son and that happened for us in 2006. His name is Chris, I couldn’t be any prouder of him as a son and pest professional. Tim Grimes came to us in 2011 after 14 year working in pest management and also serving a past President of the Iowa Pest Management Association. I’m not going to blow my own horn but I will say I’ve been around a wile.

Bird Control questions, answered by experts

The nesting period can last up to 10 weeks, and some species will continue to nest four to five times per year. A bird’s nest could continue to stay in use for several months or up until a bird finishes nesting for the year. It’s best to consult a wildlife professional to determine the longevity of a specific bird’s nest.

Regular cleaning, proper food storage, sealing entry points, and professional inspections help prevent infestations.

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.

Pest control costs targeting birds and bats typically range from $250 to $800, depending on the severity of the infestation and the complexity of access to affected areas.

Rabbits face a range of formidable adversaries in rural and suburban areas. Natural predators such as hawks, foxes, bobcats, raccoons, coyotes, and weasels pose significant threats to their survival. These skilled hunters target bunnies for food, contributing to regulating rabbit populations. Outdoor housepets can be enemies, too, particularly dogs and cats. And loud little humans playing in your yard make great rabbit deterrents, too.
