"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. "

"Jose. Montalvo was excellent. He called me in advance of visiting our home to ask me questions about the issues we were having. Jose then took the time to share with me how he approaches pest control and what I should expect. Jose scheduled a visit and came on time. He walked me around the inside and the outside of our house to show me spaces that he would block with steel wool and spray foam. Jose also showed me the placement of the bait stations and gave me advice on where to put traps and how to rotate the trap bait. I recommend Jose highly. He's a professional who's been in the business 20+ years. He takes time to explain what he's doing and sets expectations."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

The most effective natural roach repellent is Borax with its key ingredient of boric acid and diatomaceous earth. But some homeowners may not feel like these are “natural” enough, especially since you can’t use Borax around curious pets or toddlers.

On the other hand, studies have shown that oregano oil mixtures have some of the best repellent effects, and other research indicates that catnip oil, peppermint oil, and citrus oils have notable effects on keeping roaches away. Rosemary oil has been shown to be the most effective natural oil for killing cockroaches outright.

You can’t stay in your house while fumigating, even if it’s only one room.  When using a bug bomb or fogger in any area of your home, the entire home must be fully prepped and everyone must leave regardless of how many rooms are being fumigated. If you'll be booking a stay overnight to give your home time to air out, factor the hotel room into your total fumigation cost.

Using audio and visual methods to discourage birds might work initially, but birds tend to acclimate to them over time. While chemical deterrents can show some effectiveness, their results can be inconsistent. Some may dissipate too quickly, and there's a risk they might cause unintended damage to your surroundings. Additionally, birds might become immune or resistant to the impact of such treatments.

The best way to permanently get rid of skunks is by setting up deterrents around your property to keep skunks out. Get rid of skunks permanently by:

  • Not leaving food or water outside

  • Installing a motion-sensor sprinkler system

  • Installing fencing that’s at least 3 feet high and a foot deep

  • Adding motion-sensor lights in the yard

  • Cleaning up brush, sticks, woodpiles, and leaves on your property so skunks can’t use the materials for a nest

  • Seal up cracks and holes around your property to prevent skunks from building a den

  • Placing fresh lemon peels around the perimeter of your home

Both spikes and loose nets can be installed over nest sites to prevent the bird from returning, but nets are not a humane option since birds and other wildlife can get tangled in them. 

Spikes are a humane alternative that deter nesting without harming the birds. In small areas, like vents, a very fine mesh net can be installed to prevent the bird from returning. These nets don't generally pose a risk to the birds.
