"Dennis, who contacted me from this critter control service was very courteous and very prompt. He came to assess my situation in less than a day from contact with him. His service was actually the most reasonably priced service, of all those I contacted. He successfully found the hole where the squirrels were getting into my walls and ceilings, and set up the one way door. Within 2 days, all the noise that I was hearing in my ceilings and walls had diminished. He came within the time frame he conveyed and removed the one way door and then sealed up the hole. I have not had any issues since. The squirrels are no longer having parties in my ceilings and walls. My house is now very quiet. I would recommend Dennis and his service very highly."

Bleach, which can kill drain flies, can also kill fruit flies, but it’s better to lure fruit flies to a liquid rather than applying chemicals, as it’s very difficult to reach them all. A more practical approach is to lure fruit flies with traps made from liquids like apple cider vinegar mixed with dish soap. This method is safer and more efficient, since it targets a larger number of fruit flies without relying on harsh chemicals that may not reach all the pests.
Yes, professionals use non-toxic methods and materials to protect both health and the environment.
Yes, rats are social creatures that thrive together in packs. If you spot a solitary rat, there are likely more nearby. Their rapid breeding cycle and ability to slip through minute gaps in walls, floors, and foundations contribute to their presence. An infestation generally entails more than eight rats. A nest typically accommodates five to 10 of these rodents. When you spot one, it is crucial to take action. Rats can transmit diseases through urine droppings and even cause renal failure through bites.
