"Doug is such a kind professional who we have used many times now to help us with various environmental tasks. He is very good at getting back to us quickly and he is very knowledgeable about many different pests and you can tell he truly cares about the critters. When he comes to treat our house he is always friendly and remembers details about our family life which makes the entire pest control process so much more enjoyable. He is also very careful to treat family homes with non-toxic materials which was a huge plus for our family with kiddos running around. Thank you Doug!"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Using rat poison in your crawl space can be risky. While it may kill rats, they can die in hard-to-reach places, causing foul odors and attracting other pests. Yikes. Moreover, secondary poisoning can happen to pets if they consume poisoned rats. If you decide to use poison, consult a local exterminator for guidance to ensure safety and effectiveness.

You can get rid of fleas by taking several steps as quickly as possible. First, consult your pet’s vet to determine the best flea shampoo or medicine to apply to their coat. In conjunction with treating your furry friend, treat your house by washing all linens, including pet bedding, in warm to hot water with detergent. You should also use a strong vacuum on all floor surfaces, spread diatomaceous earth in flea-prone areas, and consider using commercial baits, traps, and powders.

You're more likely to find a hobo spider outside rather than inside your home. If you do find one in your home, don't panic. You can remove the spider by catching it in a glass or cup and transporting it outside. You may also vacuum up the spider and remove it by emptying the vacuum bag. 

If you notice more than one spider, it may be a good idea to hire a local pest control company to check out the situation and recommend a course of action. 

The time of day that most snakes are active is at night. This is when they prefer to hunt since they can do so under the cover of darkness, out of sight of predators and the prey they stalk. However, some snake species prefer very hot temperatures and are strictly active during the day.

You can try using home remedies to help keep bats away. Some popular suggestions include substances with strong odors like peppermint oil, eucalyptus, cinnamon, cloves, and/or mint for a natural remedy. While evidence supporting this theory is limited, it may be worth trying in conjunction with other deterrence methods.
