"Spoke with Chris, he took time explaining the product well, so we decided to purchase GuardDog pet fencing. Install no problems and we have underground lawn sprinklers, the installer worked well with our 4yr old Doberman. Follow up training (us) took no time, our Doberman after one correction, now enjoying the freedom of his home (backyard, side and front yard) space."

"I was a little hesitant at first because of the mixed reviews but we did use Northwest several years back for our fence at our home in Geneva. That experience went so well we decided to use them again. The price was very fair, the scheduling was quick and easy and the installation was performed timely and professionally. Job well done."

"Scott is so incredibly kind, courteous and he truly loves all dogs! His dog Millie is the best too! She has helped train both of our dogs to use the PetSafe fence which has been so incredibly helpful for us since we live next to a walking path and our dogs like to greet every single person that walks by! The fence keeps them from getting outside of our property. Scott initially installed our fence for our first dog, Coco. Then we added a new puppy last year and he came back out and spent so much time to train our dog Cookie too. This time, he came to repair our broken fence that was damaged when the plumber had to dig up our water line. He also helped us with bark collars and he helps train us on how to use those as well. Scott is passionate about humane and safe dog care and I would absolutely recommend him to any dog owner!"

"Upon contacting Kevin at KAT, he didn't arrive for the first appointment in which he was supposed to provide an estimate. A little annoyed, we continued to pursue him as we liked his demeanor on the phone (he's an Irishman with a great brogue). He provided a very reasonable quote for the work we wanted done (redo the front concrete steps, install a fence and gate in the front yard). He began work early the next week. He arrived with a few helpers, all of whom were friendly and very entertaining. They absolutely did all of the work we asked them to do, and we are very happy with the results. They had to work a day or so more than they planned, but we were in no rush to get the work done, so that was fine."

Animal Fencing FAQs, answered by experts

Many people only see armadillos at night because the closer the animals are to the city, the more they stay in their burrows during the day to avoid noise. More rural armadillos are more likely to come out during the day when they can warm up in the sunlight and avoid predation by owls and cougars.

It can be difficult to know what type of animal is in your attic until you see it. But several clues can help you narrow down the suspects:

  • Sounds: Smaller animals like rats and mice make scurrying and tapping/gnawing sounds. Larger animals like raccoons and opossums make louder clambering noises. Also, note when animals are noisy: Squirrels are active during the day, while rats are busiest at night.

  • Droppings: Rats and mice leave small, rice-shaped droppings (the rat’s version is significantly larger). Bigger droppings belong to larger critters like raccoons. As long as you’re not squeamish, an image search can help you identify what you’re seeing in your attic.

When in doubt, take photos of damage or other evidence and show them to an experienced pest control pro.

Yes, dryer sheets can help repel mice. The strong artificial fragrances found in many dryer sheets, such as citrus, floral, or lavender, are unpleasant to mice, which are very sensitive to smells. Many people report success using them to deter mice from areas like cars, drawers, vents, and cupboards. The scent can last for many days, making the space undesirable for rodents. However, dryer sheets may not be a foolproof solution on their own. For more effective protection against rodent infestations, it is best to combine them with other preventive measures like traps, repellent sprays, and proper storage practices.

How long skunks stick around depends on the time of year and whether they have youngsters. Skunks only spend a few days in a den during warm months. However, they’ll put down roots during the other seasons, particularly females with kits. Female skunks may stay in the same place throughout early spring and summer, and all skunks usually stick around during the winter months. No matter the season, skunks prefer safe areas with plenty of access to food. 

There are a few ways to keep pesky bugs away from your garden. One option you have is to plant flowers so beneficial insects like ladybugs can control pests for you. A similar method is companion planting, which means you’ll grow vegetables that’ll discourage pests, like garlic, onions, and basil. The best pest prevention method will depend on the bugs you have issues with and the plants in your garden.
