"5 stars all day long. I found a large active bees nest on the side of my house. So I reached out to Armor Pest Control. I talked to the owner and explained my problem. He gave me a quote on the phone and drove right over! He was respectful of my property as he did a thorough walk around to check for other problems. After the work was done, he gave me clear instructions and an explanation of the work he did. 100% would hire again for bee removal."

"We have been using this company every year (twice a year) for preventative pest service control. They have been very responsive and the technician they sent is top notch and helpful. No pest in the house, mouse control bait station filled, downstairs bugs eliminated. Very happy with their professionalism, service and products. Will continue using them."

I had a very positive experience using Yankee Pest Control.  I appreciated that Galvin Jr. showed up on time and when he said he would. That is hard to find with most service providers nowadays!  We walked through my house and he pointed exactly how and where the termites had compromised the basement foundation.  He explained thoroughly, the process and cost it would take to remediate the situation.  They came out a couple of days later and performed their services just as he explained-no sudden changes that required more money as I've heard of with some other guys.

  Overall, I was very impressed with how Yankee Pest Control runs their business and I felt that their prices were reasonable.  I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Animal Removal FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Ladybugs and nematodes eat fleas outdoors. In fact, ladybugs can eat an average of 50 bugs each hour. If you see them outdoors, avoid causing them harm to help you keep unwanted pests away.

Gophers do not hibernate, meaning you could, at least theoretically, have a gopher problem in your yard any time of year. During the colder parts of the year when soil isn't as easy to work with, gophers may not dig as many holes or be as active and instead will burrow deeper into the earth to go below the frost line to stay warm.

You can expect to see more gopher activity during the spring and fall when warmer temperatures make digging easy, and there is an abundance of new (or recently harvested) plant life available for them to graze on. They come out during the day and sleep at night.

The nine-banded armadillo is common in Texas, Louisiana, Florida, and Mississippi. Their range has expanded over the years, and they now live as far north as Missouri, Kansas, and even southern parts of Nebraska. 

Bobcats are most active from sunset to midnight, and from sunrise to a few hours into the morning. If you see a bobcat acting strangely in hours they’re normally not active, it’s possible they’re sick. The Humane Society recommends contacting a local wildlife professional to find and trap the bobcat in this case.
