"I had three bushes that were very old and infested with wasps and hornets. Mr. Bakker sprayed them and eliminated the insects, and then he cut the bushes down for me and sprayed the stumps, and then also raked everything up, and hauled the limbs to the city dump. He did a wonderful job and I am so appreciative. I would recommend him for any job."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Groundhogs have a strong aversion to powerful scents, including garlic, ammonia, vinegar, hot peppers like cayenne, and predator urine. Various herbs such as rosemary, lavender, basil, mint, sage, thyme, and oregano can also act as deterrents. You can strategically use these odors around your property by planting these crops near your garden and by the entrances to groundhog burrows. Commercially available repellents offer another option, and for best results, scent-based deterrents should be used alongside other preventive measures.

Hornets are attracted to bright colors that look like flowers, including purple, pink, white, green, and yellow. They are least attracted to dark colors, such as blue and black. 

Some people find that treating their yards with natural substances can help to repel ticks. In fact, pest extermination companies often offer all-natural lawn treatments to repel ticks. Household ingredients like oregano oil, clove oil, thyme, and citronella ward off ticks and are natural ways to get rid of fleas.

Yes, there’s a chance you will still see fleas after bombing since it takes about 24 hours for fleas to die off. If your infestation is severe or fleas are hiding in inaccessible areas, you’re even more likely to see a few remaining stragglers inside your home. If this is the case, you may want to contact your exterminator and see what your options are for removal or treatment.

Termites, carpenter ants, and wood-boring beetles can move from wood furniture to other areas of your home. If you notice signs of bugs in wood furniture, it's best to remove and isolate it for treatment. Remember that it can be difficult to identify which type of pest you are dealing with, and they can already be in areas of your home.

If DIY methods don’t work or you don’t know which pest it is you should contact an exterminator if you are showing signs of wood-eating pests to prevent further damage.
