At Green Pest Management, we offer dependable residential and commercial pest control services. We provide our employees with thorough training to ensure the job is done right the first time around. We offer a variety of options to control a multitude of different pests, including mosquitoes and ticks, ants, wasps, mice, and much more. We know that nobody wants to be in a position where they need to call their local pest control company, but you can count on us to be there for you when you need us most.

"I recently had a disappointing experience with GreenPest management company. A sales representative pressured me into signing a one-year contract by stating that he needed to secure one customer that day. Feeling cornered, I agreed to the contract, trusting the sales guy professionalism. However, after the first service, I decided to cancel the service. I was shocked when I was informed that the cancellation fee would be $250, despite having been told initially that the service fee was $100. The customer service agent was rude and he got furious after he heard about cancellation and determined to get 250$ from me. The entire experience has left me feeling deceived and frustrated. I would caution others about the company shady practices and be wary of high-pressure sales tactics. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend GreenPest company and suggest seeking pest control services from a more transparent and customer-friendly provider."

"Miche is great, until you actually have a problem. They serviced my house on a quarterly basis for approximately 3.5 years, and the technician basically said that everything was fine during each visit. Fast forward to when it becomes obvious there is a rodent problem, Miche promptly sends a technician out on two occasions. The technician identified potential points of entry on the first visit, all of which were present and visible during the past 3.5 years of service. The final visit, the technician was "stumped", so Miche recommended their pricey specialist service. A new Miche assessed my house for additional points of entry, all of which were visible with a naked eye, which their specialist would seal for a ridiculous price, which I agreed to. On the date of the service to seal the holes, the team arrived an hour past the latest window provided when the appointment was scheduled. There was no proactive notice from Miche to inform me that they were going to be so late. Once they arrived, it's clear that the guy that did the initial assessment either didn't convey his recommendations or the team was incapable of comprehending them. At every juncture, I had to continue to coax them to do certain things that the man that conducted the assessment recommended. For example, I was instructed to clean the closets out because they would check those two. I had to tell them to do the closets, and I asked about the bedrooms, which they seemed like they would have skipped over. I even had to ask about the roof, which the person who did the assessment specifically identified. One of the holes that they identified was under the sink, where I had previously been told that there was only a small hole and it had been stuffed. I asked about the spray they were using and how it differed from what I normally receive. The technician didn't even seem to know that I was an existing customer. He told me how it combats insects. It wasn't until I reminded him that I had a rodent issue, that he claimed it addressed that issue as well. Two days later, I saw droppings again. This experience felt predatory. I was charged an exorbitant rate for a poor job of identifying entry points, which for three years have been "invisible" to the team regularly serving my house. Several weeks later, my regular technician returned to assess the recent activity following the sealing. Once again, he was stumped and referred the matter to the matter for another team to investigate. My appointment was confirmed, I hired a plumber to move the dishwasher, arranged for a friend to meet them, since I was out of town, and Miche failed to show up or give me notice despite me reaching out about the appointment. I've recently started working with a new company, and they informed me that the outside bait boxes hadn't been refreshed in a long while despite Miche saying that they recently added new bait."

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.

Squirrels hate not having access to secure shelter or food sources. Your best line of defense is to make your property less attractive by removing access to these things. There are chemical squirrel repellents, but these have mixed success. According to Pennsylvania State University, you can apply products containing the bittering agent denatonium saccharide to a squirrel's favorite fence, tree, or roof spots. However, you need to reapply repellents regularly, which aren’t scientifically proven effective.

Squirrels follow a diurnal routine like humans, remaining quiet at night because they sleep. Homeowners concerned about squirrels in their homes are more likely to hear these critters in the early morning when they awaken, eager to start their day and search for sustenance. As the sun sets, squirrels wrap up their daily endeavors and return to their cozy nests for the night's rest.

If you find a tick inside crawling in the house, remember not to just step on it or try to crush it. Ticks have hard bodies and it’s hard to kill them this way. Instead, pick it up with toilet paper and flush it. You can also place it in a sealed bag, or kill it by placing it in alcohol. 

You can find anti-rat sprays in most home department stores that may be worth a try. Spray them along fences and in areas where you don’t want rats to go (like around decks) and they may think twice before approaching. For a natural version, you can try a mint spray, since rats generally dislike mint. But even the most effective sprays are unlikely to stop a hungry rat over time.
