"It went well. They responded promptly to my request for service. Initial inspection of the attic, they believed we had squirrels and a huge birds' nest. They then closed/screened off all entry points. However, once I reported actually seeing a raccoon in the yard, they put out traps and a camera. The raccoon avoided the traps but Mike's Pest Control was persistent, regularly checking the traps and trying different baits. They didn't stop their attempts until the raccoon was caught. If I have any other incidents like this one, I will use them again."
"I'm very happy with Green Pest. The mosquito control was amazing, last summer I didn't get one bite--the summer before I couldn't go in my back yard without getting bitten"
"Lamb right Pest Control Services provided great communication in arranging service. Timely, professional, efficient ,courteous service to prevent roaches, ants, spiders, mice, etc. Provided a written estimate for first time and future services. Cost for basic treatment for 2,195 ft house inside and outside with quarterly maintenance plan is very reasonable. Highly recommend this service."
"I had a great experience working with Blades of Green. To begin with, their estimate for a termite-monitoring system was a lot more reasonable than the estimate I had received earlier from a national company. The monitors were placed in the ground less than a week after the estimate was given. I also cancelled my pesticide treatment program with this national company and went with Blades of Green, who offered me the same service for less money. On the basis of this initial experience with Blades of Green I heartily give my recommendation to use them."

Yes, badgers are aggressive mammals, which is why it’s important to safely remove them from your home or garden area as soon as possible. Keep in mind though, badgers rarely attack pets or people, but their sharp claws and even sharper teeth can make them dangerous if they feel threatened.
Strong scents like peppermint, rosemary, lavender, citronella, and others can repel woodpeckers—as pungent smells can overpower their senses. For that reason, you might consider making a homemade spray with one or a combination of these scents to spritz around areas of your home where woodpeckers frequent.
Termites can start causing damage within just a few weeks of settling in, and while the signs might not show up right away, they can hollow out drywall and structural wood within a few months. If left untreated for a year or more, the damage can be extensive and expensive.
Spraying mosquitos involves exposing your household to chemicals that may affect their health. Spraying chemicals in your yard can also harm other insects and plants, throwing off your yard’s ecosystem. In fact, some of the insects may naturally eat or kill mosquitos. Consider the personal and environmental effects before installing a mosquito misting system.
Some pest control treatments, such as spraying insecticides or bug bombs, can cause severe health problems for your household members if you are improperly exposed to them. That's why putting away pet toys, dishes, bedding, children's toys and items is essential. Pest technicians are trained to reduce risk, but it's best to take caution by avoiding the risk of items being accidentally sprayed. Discuss any concerns you may have with your pest control specialist.
