Their technicians were professional and thorough, ensuring every area was treated to eliminate the infestation.

"I am employed by a property management company. When tenants bring in unwanted pest, it's imperative we get rid of them quickly. Rob, our Pestquito Tech and Lindsey our account manager make it their mission to kill! We had a larger more reputable company before, but they couldn't get the job done. Rob and Lindsey get it done! They are very careful to keep the roaches from spreading to other units. They also take care of other pest and they aren't afraid to get dirty. The tenants are grateful and so am I. I highly recommend Pesquito. Thank you Pestquito. Job well done!"

"Great Service We recently had this pest control company spray our house to help prevent ants, and we couldn’t be happier with the service! We’ve had a pretty bad ant problem during the spring and summer in the past, but they were quick to respond, knowledgeable, and did a great job treating our home. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and effective pest control!"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

No, the spotted lanternfly does not sting, bite, or otherwise do anything painful or damaging to humans or animals. Do not hesitate to approach and kill the insects and any eggs you find on sight—you’ll be playing an important role in slowing the spread of these invasive and destructive pests. If you’re not sure if the insect is a spotted lanternfly, snap a picture and contact your local extension office for help identifying it.

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. 

Prime mosquito season varies depending on your location. It’s longer in the sweltering southern states and shorter in the cooler, drier northern regions. In places like Florida, it can run from February to November, but in the Pacific Northwest, mosquitoes appear in April and can hang around until the end of October. While the hottest summer months are when they are at peak population, mosquito seasons are extending in many regions because of the increase in annual temperatures.

Most DIY roach fogger products are made of pyrethroid pesticides that come with their own unique risks and benefits. They also contain aerosol propellants that disperse the pesticides by creating a fog that fills the entire room. Read all labels carefully before purchasing a fogger product to ensure that you understand how to properly handle the ingredients that you are introducing into your home.

Although weevils aren’t harmful to humans, it’s best to throw out flour (or any food product) if it contains weevils or other pests. However, if you want to salvage food after finding pests nearby in the pantry, you can freeze it for at least four days. To prevent weevils from returning, make sure to store your food in airtight containers or inside your refrigerator or freezer.
