"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

There are many steps you can take to keep mice out of your home. The most preventative include removing all available food sources, keeping your home clean, and sealing up entry points to your home. You can also try using live traps or even getting a cat. If none of these measures work, enlist the help of a pest control company.

Gel bait and gel bait traps use poison to kill cockroaches, and aren’t safe to use around pets. Many gel bait traps are called “child-resistant,” but this only means that the traps are hard to rip open for children. Large pets and children are still able to swallow them. If you use gel bait, use it in areas where pets and children can’t access them, such as under a washing machine. Another option is to use glue traps, which don’t contain pesticides and are safe to use around pets. 

Yes, exterminators spray inside kitchen and other cabinets as part of a whole-home pest control treatment, especially when eradicating bugs that like to hide there, like roaches and ants. If you spot a pest infestation in your pantry or cabinets, be sure to show your pest control pro which areas have the most traffic.

Don’t count on squirrels leaving on their own. Squirrels like the safety that a cozy attic provides and won’t be in a hurry to leave, especially if they’ve recently given birth to a litter. It’s best to address the situation with DIY removal tactics or hire a squirrel removal pro as soon as you suspect squirrels are living in your attic.

A temperature of 119 degrees Fahrenheit will kill bed bugs and their eggs within 90 minutes. No temperature kills them instantly, but if exposed to high temperatures over extended periods, bed bugs will be killed off. Bed bug eggs must be exposed to the same temperature for 90 minutes to reach 100% mortality.
