"It went great. Brian's team came the first day and took their time looking at everything I needed done. When the saw I was missing some components for the microwave installation, they took it upon themselves to go out and find the right components for me so I didn't need to worry about it. They came back promptly the next morning, and were able to install my microwave. and it looks GREAT!! They then helped me install a new light fixture while also repairing several other lights around the house. Many contractors can do this stuff. But what set Brian and B.C.G. Building Solutions apart was his wilingness to explain all the tools and techniques to me in ways I could understand. He was patient and peristent when faced with some wiring issues in my old house, and best of all, he and his team have a great sense of humor! I'd definitely recommend B.C.G. Building Solutions to anyone and I am eager to continue working with them in the future."
"Peace of mind at last! Joffre was wonderful explaining everything and even came over to our home during install to answer any further questions. Pat was an excellent installer and we can finally be rest assured that we are safe at home and away. Thanks again Alarm Protection Group!"
"I have been using Bamford Plumbing for over 10 years at various different properties. Doug has been a key part of my team to manage multiple different rental properties as well as my own home. He is the first person I call for a variety of different issues that come up. Highly recommend!"
"Mr. Edis Portillo did a good job focusing on the holes in the basement. He showed where the holes were located and how he it would be fixed. He was very detailed on this project."
"Replaced both my compressor and air handler which was nearly 50 years old, rewired and plumbed everything, added and removed ducting as needed to provide a clen install. Team was fast and professional During the initial quote/Inspection worked with me to understand my cooling needs and did not ty to upsell me. Scheduling was quick and they were even able to move up my install date. I would recomend them to anyone."
No, you shouldn’t have to worry about bats in your yard as long as they don’t make their way inside your house. Typically, bats hang around backyards in order to consume bugs, especially if they’re located in the U.S. Bats that are native to North America can consume more than 500 bugs per hour, so they may actually benefit your yard if mosquitoes are prevalent.
Yes, dryer sheets can help repel mice. The strong artificial fragrances found in many dryer sheets, such as citrus, floral, or lavender, are unpleasant to mice, which are very sensitive to smells. Many people report success using them to deter mice from areas like cars, drawers, vents, and cupboards. The scent can last for many days, making the space undesirable for rodents. However, dryer sheets may not be a foolproof solution on their own. For more effective protection against rodent infestations, it is best to combine them with other preventive measures like traps, repellent sprays, and proper storage practices.
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.
Several skin conditions and insect bites can be mistaken for a tick bite, including mosquito bites, spider bites, chigger bites, and even allergic reactions. Tick bites often start as small red bumps, which may develop into a bullseye-shaped rash if Lyme disease is transmitted. However, similar-looking rashes can result from conditions like eczema, ringworm, or hives. Without a visible tick, it can be hard to confirm the source, so it’s best to monitor the area for changes and consult a doctor if symptoms like fever, fatigue, or worsening redness occur.
Yes, humans carry fleas. Although fleas are primarily associated with dogs and cats, they are attracted to the warmth and carbon dioxide of mammals, including humans. The difference is that most fleas will only choose animals as their hosts. They may bite humans, but they don’t tend to stick around on humans for long. The one exception is the Pulex irritans, also called the human flea, which prefers human blood.
