Q: How long does it take to get rid of drain flies?

• <div><p>Most people can get rid of drain flies within a week as long as they remain persistent. This is especially important if you&rsquo;re using a gentler method like vinegar or boiling water. Any eggs left behind can hatch, and the problem can start all over again. If you can&rsquo;t get rid of the flies within a week or two, consider hiring a pro.</p></div>

Q: Are silverfish dangerous to have in my home?

• <div><p>They&rsquo;re a nuisance, but silverfish aren&rsquo;t nearly as dangerous as other pests like cockroaches, mice, termites or bed bugs. They don&rsquo;t carry diseases that humans or pets can catch, and they don&rsquo;t cause widespread destruction like termites or rats. Silverfish are small and find it very easy to get inside any exposed foodstuffs. Like weevils, you may find them in unprotected flour, cereal, grains, bread boxes, chip packages and more. They will happily nibble fabric and paper as well, so they can cause damage to furniture, clothing, books, bedding, curtains and other materials.</p></div>

It's a fantastic company. They gave me an affordable quote, showed me what would be done on the roof, replaced all the plywood pieces, they were very damaged, did an excellent job and the prices are very good. Excellent work, I recommend them. I am so grateful to the Recinos Roofing company.

Trinity Works did the best job on a project that was long overdue. They power washed my entire house, both decks, and the gutters in one day. They even removed a green film that was left on the siding from the previous company a few years ago.
