"I never thought I would need to hire someone to remove wild animals from my property. For 35 years I've lived in harmony with the groundhogs and other animals that come into my yard. Then someone tunneled and came up under my back porch. Since this is where the dogs and we go in and out, something had to be done to prevent dogs from getting stuck under the porch and wildlife from appearing at the back door. I called Easton's. David E. understands wild animals. He has a deep respect for their intelligence and knowledge of their habits and their abilities to interact with humans. He set traps for the chipmunks who were going in and out of my crawl space. He set a trap at the small entry under my back deck. He caught chipmunks, a skunk, a possum and finally the huge groundhog that had been digging the tunnels. He then did work to ensure that animals could do no more tunneling under my shed (they had been living there since the shed arrived 25 years ago) and other areas around the house where animals could get in and cause damage were closed. Every time I called to report an animal caught in the trap, Mr. E. came quickly to retrieve it. I have every confidence they were treated humanely and did not suffer. An added bonus the fall/winter of 2017 and 2018/19 my house has also been rodent free! It's been great that the house is sealed up and mice are no longer visiting. Raccoons and opossums still set off my light sensors but they are now transient visitors--not living in tunnels under the house. If you need help with wildlife around your property, Mr. E. is the one to call. I highly recommend this business. You will learn all about the animal's lifestyle and habits as well as how best to keep them outside where we prefer them to be and your home will be protected from the damage they can cause."

Bird Control questions, answered by experts

Pest control timelines depend on what services are being provided, size and type of infestation, and size of your home. Some inspections can take an hour or more, while preventative treatments only take 30 minutes to complete. Basic spaying for a problem like roaches or termites can take about an hour for small homes, but much longer for large properties and infestations. Consult your pest control pro for a time estimate based on your situation.

Vinegar can keep some animals at bay, like deer, rabbits, foxes, and raccoons. Keep in mind that your household pets, like cats and dogs, also don’t like the smell of vinegar. You can soak rags in white vinegar and put them up around your garden beds to keep the pesky critters from eating your plants.

Trees that provide a habitat to bats and an abundance of bugs—their main food source—will attract bats to your yard. Because the North American landscape has changed so much in recent years, bats have a harder time finding trees with cavities to shelter in. If your yard has a dead or dying tree with a lot of sun exposure, bats will likely be drawn to it because trees with those features are less common.

High-frequency bird repellent devices are effective at driving away birds, which is their intended purpose. However, these devices also tend to have unintended negative consequences. For example, if you or your neighbors own pets, the high-pitched noise emitted by these electronic devices will cause them distress and may even make them aggressive.

Once the animals and their young are out of the house, remove the nest and locate any entry points. Some may be difficult to find because some animals can fit through very small holes. Once you’ve located as many entry points as possible, use materials such as metal or masonry to block off the entry. Ideally, you should choose materials that most animals cannot chew through. Create a one-way door or flap to allow animals to leave but not return. Additional methods include using repellants designed to make an area unappealing to the types of animals that find your home so inviting.
