"Ethan Dean did a fantastic job. He removed bats and moles from my property. I contacted Ethan and he came out the next afternoon. I found the company very affordable. I compared pricing with 4 other companies and he beat out the pricing by hundreds of dollars. He was much reasonable. I would recommend this company to anyone."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

To keep animals away from your trash, you can spray store-bought ammonia-based cleaners on the bag or make your own spray. All you need is a spray bottle with one part ammonia and one part water. Once you’ve sprayed the bags, keep your kids and pets away.

Birds are often averse to certain strong scents. For instance, the odor of predator urine, such as that from foxes or hawks, can deter them. Similarly, birds may dislike the pungent aromas of garlic, onions, and chili peppers. Essential oils like peppermint, eucalyptus, and citrus can also be effective in keeping birds away. However, it's important to note that individual bird species might react differently to these scents, so it might require some experimentation to find the most effective repellent for your specific situation.

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

Spraying mosquitos involves exposing your household to chemicals that may affect their health. Spraying chemicals in your yard can also harm other insects and plants, throwing off your yard’s ecosystem. In fact, some of the insects may naturally eat or kill mosquitos. Consider the personal and environmental effects before installing a mosquito misting system.

While foxes may find them unpleasant, mothballs are not an effective deterrent. Additionally, mothballs are toxic for humans and animals and should never be used outside. They contain naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene, which are very harmful to the environment. Use safer, more reliable deterrents, or hire a professional wildlife control expert.
