"ABC came out and set a baited trap to try catch the intruder. We now have to monitor it for a week or so. However, we’ve done this before and are repeat customers. We’ve also used Landmark, their affiliated pest control company, to take care of some mouse issues we had. That problem was resolved nicely, with several likely entry point sealed off. No more mice."

"I called Animal Trackers on the evening of 12-11-12 upon hearing loud thumping on my roof. I was worried that I had a raccoon or squirrel in my attic. On several occasions had also heard scratching noises in the attic area above my bedroom.  Brandon picked up my phone call right away ... didn't have to leave a message on an answering machine.  Brandon came out the very next day to inspect my home and spent quite a bit of time looking around and answering all of my questions.  I did not feel rushed at all. He inspected several areas of my home for animal entry points and quickly determined that I did not have a large animal in my attic, just mice.
 
Brandon inspected my garage interior, exterior foundation areas and siding, roof, soffits, chimney, and attic.  Once he climbed into the attic he could see the trails/tracks and tunneling holes that the mice had left througout the insulation in the attic.  No sign of large animals.  Hard to determine how the mice are getting in because they are so small and have their ways of getting in the tiniest of spaces. Brandon did point out some areas where the bottom pieces of cedar siding meet the foundation of the house that had gaps. He recommended filling the gaps and caulking. These might be entry points. 
Animal Trackers generally does not handle mice control, so he suggested that I put several mouse traps in the attic and check them every couple of days. It's impossible to determine how many mice are up there, and we may not ever be able to completely get rid of them, but the goal would be to try to control the population.
Best of all is that Brandon alerted me to a potentially more serious but unrelated problem.  While in the attic, Brandon noticed that the air smelled damp.  He investigated further and discovered that I had some mold growing on the roofing plywood near the master bathroom.  The bathroom exhaust fan is venting into attic instead of outside causing a moisture problem.  Kudos to Brandon for taking the time to figure this out.  
A very pleasant and professional experience from start to finish.  Very nice man, very thorough investigation, practical advice and supremely helpful.

"Jada with Spring Green pest control was great! I was given a detailed explanation on what would be expected from Spring Green. I was also given options on when Spring Green would be available to treat my residence. I would recommend Spring Green to anyone looking for pest control."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Bleach can technically kill drain flies, but it’s not really a great tool for getting rid of an infestation. Bleach flows down your pipes too quickly to penetrate the film where drain flies lay their eggs. Alternatively, you can use it to clean around drains, which can help prevent drain flies from returning once you get rid of the infestation.

Yes, many services include cleanup and sanitization to remove droppings and odors. Confirm with your provider.

Luckily, spiders rarely “infest” a home like many other pests. They don’t tend to live in groups except when first born, and prefer their space. But you can prevent them from gaining entry by making sure your home is well-sealed and free of other insects. You can also lay down barrier sprays or powders designed to repel or kill spiders. Professionals can also lay down these barriers to prevent future spider problems.

Squirrels are pretty skittish creatures, and they dread the presence of rodent-chasing dogs and cats. Sudden noises and bursts of activity can send them scampering away. Anything with an element of surprise, like motion-detecting lighting, strobe lights, and noisy wind chimes, can unsettle them. Even loud radios and voices can be perceived as threatening and terrifying to these furry critters.

The best way to deal with a rodent problem is to avoid it in the first place. One way to do that is to make your home smell uninviting to them. Here are some household products that can repel rodents. When using oils, try soaking a cotton ball in the stuff and leaving it in places rodents frequent:

  • Peppermint oil

  • Eucalyptus oil

  • Cinnamon

  • Vinegar

  • Cedarwood 

  • Cloves

  • Garlic

  • Chili oil/powder

  • Cayenne pepper
