"The professional I spoke to in the office was on the phone with me throughout the day to get an adequate picture of the pest issue I had. I was quoted a fair price, and they were able to come out the next day, which I needed before going out of town. The gentleman who came out to do the work was kind, knowledgeable, and considerate of our garden area. We have not had this pest issue since that time."

Birch Hill Critter Solutions, has been doing business since 2003. We specialize in removing unwanted critters from your property. We are licensed and insured in New Hampshire and Massachusetts. We look forward to working with you! ***We do not service for bees, insects and woodpeckers***

"I discovered a bat flying around in the attic on a Saturday afternoon. I reached out to Birch Hill and they responded immediately by text and email. As it wasn't an emergency, we scheduled a visit that Monday afternoon for Birch Hill to assess the situation. Birch Hill confirmed the bats and determined that they were probably getting in via a gap in the top of the roof. Birch Hill returned the next day and installed a Roof Guard product along the roof line to prevent access to the attic. They also installed a bat extraction tube for the bats to find their way out. They also recommended chimney caps on the top of our fireplace to prevent potential wildlife access. Additionally, they sealed various holes at the base of the siding of the house. Two weeks later, Birch Hill returned, checked out the attic, and removed the bat extraction tube on the roof, and put the finishing touches on sealing up the exit hole. SUCCESS. These guys are Pros and a pleasure to work with. "

Catseye specializes in customized rodent, wildlife and pest control solutions for families in Central and Eastern Massachusetts. We offer a permanent solution to keeping pests out for good. Catseye protects your home from mice, rats, and bats to bed bugs and termites and everything in between.

"Over 5 months paid over $1,500 to Catseye not one mouse was caught, nor did they take any bait. We still see mice periodically in the house, which was the reason we called them. Their service failed to achieve any measurable results and no refund for poor performance was offered and I was still charged the cancelation fee to end the contract early. Technicians who visited monthly were pleasant and professional but ultimately was a giant waste of money for the tech to place out traps/bait stations and stuff some holes with steel wool. Not really sure what the high-end price was for as there was nothing cutting edge or advanced in what they did. Monthly service visits last roughly 15-20 minutes I would say on average. Again all the technicians were pleasant and professional and the folks on the phone were the same they just would not budge on a refund and still charged the cancelation fee. I would look elsewhere unless your home is new enough construction to use the exclusion system which I did not get due the age of my homes foundation."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Armadillos are not considered friendly animals. They are solitary and tend to avoid human interaction. While not aggressive, they can be shy and reclusive, often scurrying away when approached. Armadillos may carry diseases, so handling them is not advised. 

Fortunately, many strong natural scents can help deter roaches, thanks to their keen sense of smell. Roaches tend to avoid potent aromas, such as crushed bay leaves, citrus peels, eucalyptus, and peppermint, as they associate these smells with danger. Sprinkling garlic powder, placing mint or lavender plants, or using essential oils like citronella, clove, or tea tree can create an unwelcoming environment for them. These scents don't kill roaches, but they can help keep them from settling in your home when used consistently in high-risk areas like kitchens, bathrooms, or entry points.

Hazing is an effective strategy for keeping foxes away from your yard because these wild animals are usually scared of people, loud noises, and sudden movements. If you have a large dog patrolling the yard, that’s also usually a powerful deterrent for foxes. You can also use hazing to keep badgers away from your yard, along with pests like raccoons and coyotes.

Legal considerations include adherence to local and federal wildlife protection laws, particularly for species that might be protected or endangered.

A solution of one part bleach to 10 parts water or a disinfecting product that contains phenol (such as Lysol) is known to kill hantavirus and other pathogens found in mouse urine and feces. Simply spray this solution over and around the locations you expect mice to be living and running through, and the homemade disinfectant will do its job to rid your home of any feces and urine particles you could be exposed to.
