We have developed advanced protocols and Integrated Pest Management methodologies to provide the most effective and rapid solutions to getting rid of bed bugs. We are focused exclusively on bed bugs. We, therefore bring in-depth knowledge and experience to eliminate any bed bug infestation. We are so confident in the effectiveness of our program; we offer one of the longest guarantees in the industry. We will guarantee our service for bed bugs in your home for a period of 90 days starting AFTER we have confirmed bed bugs have been eliminated from your home.

"Called discussed previously verified bedbug sighting in house. Discussed measures we had already taken and what we could do to assure ourselves further that the problem had been contained. Had the crew out for treatment and discussions of next steps. Finished wishing we had called them at the beginning. We’d have paid them more ($1000) but the cost was a wash and we’d have saved a few Saturdays. Note: dusting aggravated our daughters asthma even though we avoided her bedroom and the kids play room. We would skip the dust if we were to do it again, even if it meant repeated treatments."

"FABULOUS!!! Joe really knows what he is doing. He is upbeat and communicative. He is punctual and creative in thinking. He did not want me to pay for traps when he felt that they were unnecessary so he covered a hole going into my attic to see if the varmints would tear through it again (or if they had already abandoned this nest). When they did tear thought the marker, he applied the $140 inspection fee to the trapping fee and dealt with it that way. Brilliant."

Men in Black Pest Control Services is a smaller company which caters to those who are tired of the large cookie cutter pest control companies. Our technicians are trained to spend as much time as they need to thoroughly complete a job as opposed to the 12- 17 minute industry standard. We service: Homes, Restaurants, Offices, Apartments, Multi-Unit Properties and Warehouses. Service Frequency: One time, Monthly, Bi Monthly, Quarterly, Semi-annual and Annual. We accept cash or check or creditcard at time of service. (Billing and accounts may be set up for multi unit properties).

"MIB was supposed to come out last week to help me with my mice (ICK!) situation; a computer glitch kept me from showing up on the tech's schedule, and I was NOT happy. MIB offered a deal I couldn't refuse, so we rescheduled for today. Greg called and asked if he could come early, which is not usually a plus in my book, but today it worked well. Nice guy, knowledgeable, got right to work finding holes (there were a few, most of which could be fixed today), and putting out baits and traps. (These mice seem to be enjoying my bait stations, and are wise to my traps. ARRRGGGHHHH.) The spots that couldn't be fixed today, they're under the trim at the roof line, and he said I should get them sealed up when it's warm enough for people to be safely on ladders. Today is most definitely not that day (there's supposed to be an ice storm coming through), so it's on my calendar to schedule that in a few weeks. Today, I couldn't be happier. They should be back in two weeks, and I'll check back with Angie's List then."

"Great thanks to Lou at Critter Detectives. Why? Because something had not worked according to plan from an earlier job they had done at my house, and Critter Detectives came back and fixed it -- no problems, no worries and done properly (within a couple days of my call). Sometimes things don't go the way they are planned and need to be fixed. Critter Detectives did that -- fixing it for me at no additional cost. Originally, the job was to put in a heavy screen barrier between the ground and the bottom of my enclosed porch. It was to be installed all around the front of the house, up to the point where the house foundation starts. The purpose of the metal screen was to stop the ground squirrels from digging in, under my closed in porch where they had set up a huge burrow. I had put in stinky stuff to keep them out and everything else you can think of. Anyway, Critter Detectives sent someone to come do it. Unfortunately, that worker didn't complete the screening installation, stopping a little short of the edge of my foundation. The result that I just noticed a couple days ago? The ground squirrels had found the gap and dug back in, under my porch. It must be quite the underground palace to live in during a cold, Chicago winter. Today, Lou and a different member of his team came and fixed it! No problem. Nice, professional and no worries. I will hire them again if I ever need something. I'm delighted."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Silverfish can crawl on you in your sleep. They enjoy consuming dandruff and will crawl on your scalp for nourishment. They can also find their way to your hairbrushes and anywhere you’ve shed dandruff. It’s important to keep pillowcases, sheets and brushes clean to avoid making your bed hospitable for unwanted guests.

Due to the high temperatures used during heat treatments, many things must be removed from the area. The most vital things to ensure you remove are living things like pets and plants. To prevent damage to your belongings, you should also remove items such as electronics, flammable products, food, and anything else that the heat may damage.

A rodent infestation often has a distinctive, unpleasant smell. The most common odor is a strong, musky scent, similar to stale ammonia, which comes from mouse urine. As the infestation grows, the smell can become more intense. You might also notice a foul, decomposing odor if mice or rats die inside the walls or hidden areas. This combination of smells is a clear sign of a rodent problem and should prompt immediate action to address the infestation.

The hardest ant to get rid of is the pharaoh ant. Although small, pharaoh ants can spread infections in hospitals and are known to transmit infectious diseases in schools, apartment complexes, and office buildings. For this reason, they’re best handled by pest control professionals.

There are several ways to make your yard a less attractive habitat for moles. Protect your garden beds by installing a fence or other barrier about 2 to 3 feet deep around your garden.

Moles eat insects, so grub removal is another important way to prevent moles from destroying your yard.

Likewise, remove tree stumps, dead leaves, and other debris that attract insects to your lawn. Some plants will deter moles as well, including daffodils, marigolds, crown imperial, and alliums, like garlic or onions.
