They landscaped around our pool (but sheeting, edging, and rocks for weed control), built a brick retaining wall around the filter, and hauled off dirt and rocks left behind by pool installer. It looks great! Good price, quick work, and easy to work with.

They did a good job with cleaning out my dryer vent. Turns out I had a birds nest with seven eggs in it clogging up the exit point of the vent outside! So glad I called them, could have ended up with a fire. They were prompt and efficient and I felt perfectly comfortable with them in my house.

Bird Control questions, answered by experts

Most treatments take 1-3 hours, but severe infestations may require multiple visits.

Generally, spring is the best time to hire a pest control service, but it also depends on when you notice the infestation. Insect pest numbers are lower in spring before they hatch, making the extermination and prevention process more manageable as nests and eggs of future pests are eliminated. However, don’t hesitate to hire a pest control specialist when you spot signs of a problem.

Yes, predator decoys work to keep birds away, at least temporarily. However, if the decoy remains motionless in the same spot for a long enough time, the birds will eventually wise up and realize it's a fake. Keep changing the location of the predator decoy to ensure that the birds keep their guard up and maintain their distance.

You can take multiple approaches to keep animals out of your edible landscape. You can use natural repellents such as mint and cayenne pepper to deter them from your garden. You can also build a fence (or opt for a privet hedge) or keep the most enticing plants in a sectioned-off area. The most efficient method of keeping your four-legged guests at bay is to determine what animal it is and create a customized plan for them.

Pest control measures for bird and bat issues typically last from several weeks to months, depending on the effectiveness of the implemented solutions and the return of conducive conditions.
