"The rep came out as promised, and gave us a quote on the spot- about $1000. He filled in the three woodpecker holes, and removed my messy attempts to eradicate the bird. He then added several "toys" to keep the bird away- an owl face with metallic streamers, and four little bicycle reflectors to confuse it. Finally, he set up a speaker that broadcasts timed recordings of bird distress calls and predator bird calls. He came back a week later and painted the repairs, using paint we gave him. Final report- we have not seen the woodpecker since. Nice job!"

"We had mice in the basement for months before I finally decided to hire a professional to deal with it. I should have done it sooner, because they came quickly, sealed all the holes and I haven't found any droppings since. Great work. We also hired them to Control or Remove Raccoons. That also was a great service. The technician explained everything and was very courteous. Professional customer service, and the job was done well the first time. I would hire them again."

"

We purchased an Angie's List Big Deal Wasp and Hornet Preventative Maintenance treatment with Guillen Pest Solutions in May to have our house treated for the summer. We called and spoke with Stephen and he put us on the schedule for the first week of June. He told us that this was the best time to treat, it's when they're starting to build and become more active.

Stephen came exactly when he said he would. He was professional, pleasant and very informative. The treatment absolutely worked all summer around the exterior of my home. In August, we had a hornet nest in a tree in the back and another one in a bush in the front. For $130, Stephen came out, sprayed both nests, waited a day, then returned and removed the nests.

I would highly recommend Stephen and Guillen Pest Solutions. He is reasonably priced and a pleasure to deal with.

"I use them for pest control and lawn. They're excellent. I haven't had a spider or ladybugs or any mice in the garage at all since they've been doing my pest control. The lawn care is $49 a time and the pest control is $79 four times a season for pest control.  I've been using them for years."

Bird Control questions, answered by experts

When woodpeckers start banging on your walls or roof, they are probably looking for insects to eat, storing nuts for winter, drilling a hole to make a nest, or communicating with other birds to establish territory or find a mate.

The size of the hole can help determine the reason for the pecking. Small irregular holes are a result of insect hunts. Acorn holes are more consistently sized and often fitted with a nut in the middle. Nest holes are large and have rounded edges. If the bird is pecking to mark its territory or attract a mate, it may leave dents rather than holes, and the noise will stop when the mating season starts in spring.

They can have a deterrent effect on birds to some extent. The reflective surfaces of these objects, such as aluminum foil strips, CDs, or reflective tape, create flashes of light and movement that can startle or confuse birds temporarily. However, some birds can become accustomed to these visual disturbances over time and might adapt their behavior accordingly. For a more sustained solution, combining shiny objects with other deterrent methods shared here is often beneficial for creating a more comprehensive and effective strategy for bird control.

Numerous predators kill hornets, including frogs, birds, lizards, bats, spiders, and hedgehogs. Some larger predators, including rats, skunks, and racoons, will occasionally attack a hornet nest in order to eat the larvae inside. These natural predators typically don’t eat enough hornets to make them an effective form of hornet control. 

Woodpeckers peck at the break of dawn and take a break whenever the sun is not shining. On sunny days, expect pecking from dawn to dusk. On cloudy days, expect sporadic pecking when the sun peeks through. These birds are most active in the spring; you’ll hear them drumming as soon as the weather turns warm. 

Birds are often averse to certain strong scents. For instance, the odor of predator urine, such as that from foxes or hawks, can deter them. Similarly, birds may dislike the pungent aromas of garlic, onions, and chili peppers. Essential oils like peppermint, eucalyptus, and citrus can also be effective in keeping birds away. However, it's important to note that individual bird species might react differently to these scents, so it might require some experimentation to find the most effective repellent for your specific situation.
