"This company was outstanding to work with and I plan to continue using their services.  They had no "coupon effect" (bad service for a bargain price) and have totally taken care of any pest problems in my house.  The basement, although refinished, has always tended to draw spiders and other multi-legged things, and other than occasionally seeing one dead, they have totally stopped being a problem.  Every previous year I've had ants invade my kitchen when the warm weather comes, and this year I haven't seen a single one.  They call to schedule service and are totally accomodating to a change in plans.

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Exterminators use residual insecticides in either liquid or powder form to kill scorpions. These insecticides are applied directly to visible scorpions and their common hideouts and entryways in a home to kill them and prevent future infestation. Exterminators will also use diatomaceous earth at entryways to slowly kill scorpions that enter a home later.

Since fleas are so tiny, the best way to find them is with a very thorough search. Focus on two specific areas. First, look where your pets spend lots of time sleeping or playing, which is where fleas are likely to linger. Second, look at ground-level fabrics like carpet, furniture upholstery and similar spots where it’s easy for fleas to hide. While you’re probably worried about fleas inside your home, it’s a good idea to check outdoors around patios or outdoor chairs to see if fleas are congregating in specific spots. 

If you’re having trouble with your traps, first examine them for flaws that would allow a squirrel to escape easily, such as loose doors or hinges. It’s also important to consider the location of your trap: Place it in areas with higher squirrel traffic, and make sure it’s on a sturdy surface so it can’t wobble or tip (squirrels aren’t likely to walk in a trap that isn’t stable). Lastly, try changing out your bait—in-shell peanuts or peanut butter often work best.

The time it will take to see results from a professional exterminator can vary depending on the type of treatment and the severity of the infestation. You may notice a reduction of ants within a few days, but it can take weeks to months for the treatment to take full effect and kill the entire colony of ants. Make sure to discuss what results you can expect with your exterminator and any post-infestation cleaning you should do after the treatment.

Generally, spring is the best time to hire a pest control service, but it also depends on when you notice the infestation. Insect pest numbers are lower in spring before they hatch, making the extermination and prevention process more manageable as nests and eggs of future pests are eliminated. However, don’t hesitate to hire a pest control specialist when you spot signs of a problem.
