"There was a roach problem in the apartment building. I contacted Alleviation Pest about the problem. They were prompt to assess the problem. Through a series of sprays, due to the huge pest problem, there has been a significant decrease of the pest. I appreciate their promptness, professionalism and effectiveness. As a result, I'd recommend them and would use them again."

"Gene showed up as expected for the initial inspection. He walked us through the issues and was very thorough. He patiently answered my questions regarding two pest control issues as well as a potential regimen for the lawn. We went with an exterior treatment to eliminate ants and I can already tell a huge difference a day later. (No ant trails in the kitchen coming from the deck!) He gave us information/pricing on another treatment needed. It's not super urgent so my husband and I are deciding which we prefer to use. As unsuspecting, newish homeowners, he could have pressed us to treat now and use the most aggressive process and we wouldn't have known the wiser. We really appreciate his honest helpfulness and plan to use Natural Elements for pest control and lawn services in the future."

"It went well, I gave him a call and he showed up on time the next day. He inspected my home and determine the point of entry of the rodent. He placed a trap and the rodent was caught in few days.He came back and removed the rodent then proceeded to seal the area off. He was very friendly and knowledgeable about what technique would work best. I would highly recommend him if you are having a pest problem."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

A squirrel in a chimney may sound like gnawing since they like to chew through a wide range of materials. You may also hear a persistent scratching sound if they’re trapped inside and unable to get out themselves. Other evidence of a squirrel in your chimney includes holes on or around your chimney as well as droppings or damage to roof shingles or wiring.

Groundhogs have a strong aversion to powerful scents, including garlic, ammonia, vinegar, hot peppers like cayenne, and predator urine. Various herbs such as rosemary, lavender, basil, mint, sage, thyme, and oregano can also act as deterrents. You can strategically use these odors around your property by planting these crops near your garden and by the entrances to groundhog burrows. Commercially available repellents offer another option, and for best results, scent-based deterrents should be used alongside other preventive measures.

Bed bugs typically will not go away on their own. If there are no humans or animals around, they will need to leave to find a host for feeding. But otherwise, bed bugs can live for several months to a year, and the adult females can lay hundreds more eggs in their lifetime. An infestation is only likely to get worse without hiring an exterminator.

Ant and termite infestations look very different. Since termites feed on wood, one of the warning signs of their presence is drooping drywall, peeling paint, loose floor tiles, and crumbling wood. On the other hand, ants feed on plant- and animal-based food options, so you’ll likely spot a colony near your home’s food sources. If you’re unsure what type of pest infestation you have, hire a pest control specialist to inspect for you.

Mice, rats, and other rodents are survivalists. They've developed a set of skills that can help them survive even in challenging, predatory conditions. For that reason, they can be hard to get rid of once they've staked their claim in your home. Often, the best way to get rid of rodents is to keep them from getting into your home in the first place.
