"A family business. The mother, Heather, is the receptionist and delightful to work with. Their son, Blake, came out to check for bed bugs and was upfront and honest...none were found. He also gave tips for getting rid of suspected mites on dog beds, etc. Very, very helpful! Do not know if we will be billed for the inspection but I do not think so."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Using chemicals with harsh odors is a natural way to repel bears. While the animal’s strong sense of smell is an asset in the animal kingdom, it’s a weakness here. Simply place bleach or ammonia in a bucket and leave it outside day or night. Ironically, bears also dislike the smell of pine, so you can use pine oil or a pine-based cleaning agent. Avoid using cleaning products with fruit or citrus smells, however.

If flying ants have taken up residence in your home, they’re likely nesting near water leaks. Check for signs of flying ants near your bathtub, windows, doors, and sinks.

Roaches have a strong sense of smell, and they hate fragrances such as citrus, lavender, eucalyptus, and mint. You can use these scents in cleaning products, as room fresheners, or with plants throughout your home to deter roaches. Using these plants in your garden can also work to keep roaches from entering the home. You can even use these as ingredients to a natural roach repellent.  

Look for consistent buzzing sounds, visible hives, or increased bee activity around your property.

When you’re checking for bed bugs in your home, start by searching for the telltale signs rather than the insects themselves, as they tend to stay hidden during the day. Here are the key signs of a bed bug infestation:

  • Rust-colored or reddish stains on mattresses and bed sheets

  • Dark spots on fabric

  • Shed skins

  • Fecal matter (looks like black spots)

As for fleas, you can typically spot them on your pet. If you notice them scratching themselves excessively, look for bites and bugs on their skin and fur.
