"Actually hired them for BOTH raccoon AND bat removal. Chris Lanier is awesome. Punctual, professional, polite, dependable and knowledgeable. I would have lost this house if Iâ d have bet on it, that it was opossums in my attic. Chris said looked like raccoons to him, from the claw marks on the tree and other things. Lived here 20 years and NEVER saw a raccoon. He was right!! Trapped 3 and got them out of my attic. Always came by to check the traps. Never had to stay on top of him. Dependable. Also had bats behind a shutter on the front of the house. He cleaned out the bat poop and got rid of 9 bats! I thought I had 2. But nope. I counted them as they flew out! He also sort of â inspectedâ /looked around and found termite trails. Called my termite company and yep. They had missed it! He hadnâ t. They placed plugs with poison. Just like he said they should do. The work ethic is there. The competitive pricing is there. The service and results are there. Youâ d be crazy as a bat if you didnâ t go there. For all your needs."

"I highly recommend Ms. Torrie to anyone in need of pest control services. When we first moved into our home, we had issues with pests, but she came consistently until the problem was completely resolved. I can honestly say I?m beyond pleased with her service! We haven?t had any problems since. When she explains the treatment process and how long it will take to see results?trust her. She truly knows what she?s doing, and her expertise shows. I wouldn?t hesitate to recommend her to anyone."

"They did a really great job. They are extremely friendly, and they know what they are doing! I haven't seen a single termite in months. It feels so good knowing that they are gone and not destroying my house anymore. All the people that work for them are really great and friendly also! I would definitely do business with them again, and will refer all my friends and family if they are need of pest control.

Pest Control FAQs, answered by experts

No, wasps only attack when they feel threatened. A sting may seem unprovoked to us, but we likely got too close to a nest. Threatened wasps do, however, send out a strong pheromone that instantly attracts any other wasps in the area. 

Certain strong smells may help repel bats, though this is not a foolproof method and is best used in conjunction with other deterrence strategies. Scents like peppermint oil, eucalyptus, cinnamon, cloves, and mint are often suggested as natural remedies. To create a spray, you can mix two cups of warm water with half a cup of sugar and a few drops of your preferred essential oil. Apply this mixture using a spray bottle to possible entry points and throughout the affected area, such as an attic. While this home remedy is popular, evidence supporting its effectiveness is limited.

There’s no denying the striking resemblance, but squash bugs are different from the brown marmorated stink bug. While both are shield-shaped and emit a foul odor when crushed, they belong to different insect families and target different plants. Squash bugs primarily attack squash, pumpkins, and other cucurbits, while stink bugs have a much broader range of host plants, including fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants. Their eggs and feeding damage also differ, making proper identification key for effective pest control.

Will coffee grounds get rid of squash bugs?

What smell do squash bugs hate?

Yes. Cellar spiders are predatory and feed on other insects, including other spiders. They eat flies, mosquitos, gnats, moths, and larger prey. That larger prey includes venomous spiders like the brown recluse and the black widow.  Basically, a cellar spider is pretty brave and will feed on anything that gets into its web, no matter the size.

Some suggest mothballs as a deterrent for iguanas, but they are ineffective and harmful. Mothballs contain chemicals like naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene, which are toxic to humans and animals, including iguanas. The fumes can cause respiratory problems, skin irritation, and other health issues. Moreover, using mothballs outdoors is not recommended, as they contaminate soil and water sources.
