"I got a call from him within five minutes and he was here in about an hour, I live in the boonies yet he made it a point to get out here as the bee's were coming in the house and freaking the wife out. He was very thorough, knowledgeable, and personable. I will tell all my friends about him and will use him for any pest control needs I may have in the future. I was able to walk outside for the first time in two days without worrying about getting stung by the bald faced hornets/wasps."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Yes, in some cases, but only if you’re dealing with subterranean termites. These colonies live in the soil and can often be treated using liquid barriers or bait systems. Drywood termites are much more destructive and often require whole-structure fumigation to fully eradicate them. If you’re wondering how to get rid of termites without tenting, it’s best to consult a pest control professional to assess the type and severity of your infestation.

Rats have a strong sense of smell and do not like the smell of bleach. However, pouring bleach in drains or toilets is not a good idea because it can cause dangerous chemical reactions and even damage your pipes. It’s best to have a professional plumber install a rat-blocker or non-return valve instead to keep critters from crawling up the toilet.

In certain cases, yes, the bees may go away on their own, but it’s a risk. Some bee types, such as bumblebees, create seasonal nests and then die out as their new queens seek homes elsewhere. But in most cases, you can’t count on the bees leaving naturally. It’s also not a great idea to leave openings in your walls any longer than you have to, which can attract other pests or cause moisture damage.

Make it easier for your inspector to do a thorough assessment by preparing your home ahead of time. That includes:

  • Noting any signs of pests around the home

  • Removing obstacles in the way of the attic, basement, plumbing, garbage, and other key areas that inspectors will need to access

  • Keeping children and pets away from inspection areas

Like many animals, gophers are bothered by strong scents. Peppermint oil, eucalyptus oil,  and coffee grounds can be used as deterrents against these pests. Similarly, you can try planting lavender, rosemary, sage, geraniums, or pine trees, as these plants all have strong smells that can ward away gophers. While it may be less pleasant to work with, coyote urine scares gophers by tricking the pests into thinking your yard is a predator hot spot.
