"I had them for years, but when I asked for further service for an unresolved problem, for the first time ever, I was told they could do no more for me and to get a new company. I liked the company but did not like the revolving door of servicemen. Some were fabulous and some were just OK. Another person called a couple of months later to schedule a routine service check. I was flummoxed and told them that I had hired another service since someone there "fired" me a couple of months before. Despite wanting to work with D&T, I had already hired (and paid) another company. The other company, A J Williamson Pest Control, is working out very well. I like the fact that there is continuity with the person who comes to the house. He knows the property and does not have to ask where to begin."

"Dave was excellent. He was professional, honest and thorough. I thought I may have squirrels in the house because I heard scratching above a ceiling and saw a squirrel climbing my chimney with acorns in it's mouth.  
Dave inspected all the outside areas of my house and looked in my attic. He found no evidence of squirrels or bats or anything else (other than a few mice that I can take care of).
He screened off my two gable vents and recommended securing a couple of other entry prone areas which I can do.
I highly recommend Colonial Pest Control.

"I was very pleased with S and M Pest Services. They were quite professional, up front about all work to be performed and the cost of each tier of service. They minimize the use of harmful pesticides yet still manage to get the job done. We hired them for two properties that had different requirements, with one being much more difficult than the other. The more difficult job involved setting external and internal traps, some exterior masonry work, roof and chimney work, substantial external patching of woodpecker damage, and significant termite control. They far exceeded expectations on the more difficult property and I would not hesitate to recommend them. I rated them a B for price because this was the first time we've had to use this service."

"Casey called me right away after my initial contact. He came to my house the next day and on his way he called me to tell me how far away he was. He examined my crawlspace and educated me as to what animal he suspected and gave me a rundown of this animals habits. Came again the next day with trapping and again called me on his way. Casey is super friendly and knowledgeable and offers extremely fair pricing. He’s my pest guy now. I highly recommend his service."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

For routine pest control maintenance, most specialists recommend treatments every three months (quarterly). However, the ideal frequency can range from monthly to yearly depending on several factors. If you have a severe infestation, more frequent treatments will likely be necessary. Your location also plays a role; for example, homes near water may experience more pests in spring and summer. It's best to discuss your specific situation with a pest control professional to determine a suitable schedule. If you notice any pests between scheduled visits, inform your provider so they can address the issue promptly.

The full process of using a rat exterminator can take several weeks. If you have a larger infestation, the exterminator may need to return several times to collect rats. The timeline of your rat eradication depends on the infestation size and type of treatment, so consult a rat exterminator to get an accurate estimate for your specific issue.

Unlike for rats and mice, poisonous baits and fumigants aren’t a legal option for dealing with squirrel invasions. So, don’t set any traps up using standard rodenticides. Remember that you typically need a permit for trapping and relocating squirrels found on your property. Some states even specify the types of traps you need to use.

Because scorpions are active during the night, it can be hard to spot them—they are often hiding while you’re up and about. They could be hiding in holes in your walls, behind large appliances, under your bed, in your closet, or even inside your shoes. But, if you’ve seen one scorpion in your home, chances are there are more waiting in the darkness. If you’re on the hunt for scorpions in your home, invest in a UV light, as all scorpions will glow under UV rays.

Yes, bears can smell through walls if they are close enough. Estimates vary, but experts say bears can smell up to a maximum distance between one and 20 miles. Food inside a house does not attract bears to the degree that food left outside does, though.
