"Shannon came to our rescue to help with our raccoon in the attic the same day I called AND it was Easter Sunday! Now that is amazing customer service! Had to drive 90 minutes to get to my Scarborough home. He will be our go-to guy for all future wildlife control."

Their technicians were friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient, and they ensured my property was pest-free. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of pest control services."
"Very knowledgeable guy who seem to know what he’s doing. Don’t know results of spraying. Have had much rain since. Will have to see if it worked. Terminex will spray again the beginning of next month."
"TruGreen provided transparent pricing and quality workmanship when treating my property for bed bugs. Their technicians were professional and thorough, ensuring every area was treated to eliminate the infestation.

"Dennis was extremely efficient and professional. He called me less than 5 minutes after requesting a quote through home advisor and was at my house within a couple hours. He was able to catch the raccoon in my attic in under 10 minutes and suggested to use wire mesh over my broken gable end to prevent anything else from getting in. If you need someone to take care of a critter in your house quickly I would definitely call Animal Control Pros!"
Rocks are less likely to attract snakes and other critters because their prey (termites, ticks, and other insects) don’t usually inhabit this environment. However, if you have placed together rocks with large spaces in between or near a source of water, you may find a snake or an occasional chipmunk seeking shelter.
Roaches may not be quite as common on the top floors of a home, but they can easily climb up there if they want to. Second stories are less likely to have food sources and somewhat less likely to have moisture issues, so most roaches are attracted to bottom levels first. However, humid attics and similar spots can help roaches thrive.
Roof rats are relatively small rodents that typically measure around six to eight inches in length (excluding their long, scaly tails that are often longer than their bodies). They have sleek black or brown fur, pointed snouts, and large ears. In general, they are typically smaller and darker in color than common brown rats.
The number of treatments required to eliminate bed bugs varies depending on the severity of the infestation. Most cases require two to four treatments within a three- to six-week span. However, a small infestation might only need one inspection and one treatment visit. In contrast, severe cases or large homes may require an ongoing plan with quarterly, monthly, or semi-monthly visits from an exterminator for up to a year. To get rid of bed bugs as quickly as possible, it's best to investigate and treat them at the first sign of an issue.
Regular cleaning, proper food storage, sealing entry points, and professional inspections help prevent infestations.
