"Rob and his crew did an amazing job on our fence. We thought we wanted a PVC fence but after talking to him decided to go with the cedar fence and we completely agree with his reasons and with the results! Wow! We changed the placement of the fence just before install and Rob had no problem accommodating the new placement either. Kept us informed of all the steps along the way and got the whole project done in 3 days. Our dog now has the room to run and roam and our yard looks fantastic. Thanks Rob!"

"Martinez Lanscaping are efficient and perform quality work! Gustavo is communicative and truly wants the customer to be happy with the outcome. Our rotting patio and retaining wall were completely replaced and the new patio looks great! We were impressed and hired them for a second job, to add a wood fence over the old chain link, which we thought would be a "next year" project. The new fence was in before the next snowfall. We also had them do a quick and simple fix to our side garden wall which had fallen apart. We didn't want anything fancy, and they kept to that perfectly with a simple wood box."

"I hired AstraBuild to install pre-hunt french doors in the transition area between a living and dining room. The doors were a little larger than the opening. But Alfredo and his team did a great job working with the space, getting the door installed right, and took care of adding pieces of trim to make the whole area look beautiful. He also installed two pre-hung interior bedroom doors for me, installed new stair railings, and fixed two closet doors that were no longer sliding open/close. He was very punctual and easy to work with. I will definitely hire them again!"

"Over the Bridge, you guys are the best respectful, clean and know what you are doing. They also shared some knowledge with me that was very useful. I had 3 other contractors come and give me estimates and these guys were almost $10,000 cheaper. They completed the job in a little over 2 weeks, 6 days before what they gave me for a time frame. I would in 3 words (use these guys). I have no complaints. Thank you over the bridge remodeling."

Animal Fencing questions, answered by experts

Squirrels have a strong sense of smell and can be deterred by various scents they dislike. Effective options include peppermint oil, rosemary, garlic, cinnamon, white vinegar, coffee grounds, and predator urine. Squirrels also have a strong aversion to capsaicin, the compound that makes chili peppers hot, making capsaicin-based repellents a good choice for protecting specific areas like gardens or bird feeders. For a DIY solution, you can create a garlic and vinegar spray and apply it daily. Additionally, placing strong-smelling items like certain soaps or dryer sheets near where squirrels frequent can also be effective.

Whether you, your dog, or your cat has been sprayed, Poison Control recommends using a solution of 1 quart of 3% (household strength) hydrogen peroxide, ¼ cup of baking soda, and 1 teaspoonful of liquid dish detergent mixed together and immediately applied to the sprayed fur or skin to get rid of skunk smell. After leaving it on for five minutes, rinse with water. If your eyes get sprayed, rinse for at least 15 minutes with room-temperature water.

The cost to hire an exterminator or pest control service is $175 on average, with typical costs ranging from $100 to $500. However, you could spend more depending on several factors, including the type of pest, the size and severity of the infestation, and the number of visits required.

Service costs also vary by frequency:

• One-time service: $300–$550

• Initial visit with ongoing service: $150–$300

• Monthly visits: $40–$70

• Quarterly visits: $100–$300

• Annual visits: $300–$550

The type of pest significantly impacts the price. For example, exterminating spiders typically costs between $100 and $300, while a termite problem can range from $230 to $2,500 or more, depending on the extent of the damage. Routine pest control services can help prevent future infestations and costly damage to your home.

Badgers are nocturnal, which means they’re most active at night. This is when they leave their homes and go out in search of food. They’re also creatures of habit, so they will continue going back to the same places when they are active, as long as there doesn’t appear to be any danger.

Once the animals and their young are out of the house, remove the nest and locate any entry points. Some may be difficult to find because some animals can fit through very small holes. Once you’ve located as many entry points as possible, use materials such as metal or masonry to block off the entry. Ideally, you should choose materials that most animals cannot chew through. Create a one-way door or flap to allow animals to leave but not return. Additional methods include using repellants designed to make an area unappealing to the types of animals that find your home so inviting.
