"I had an infestation of cicada killer wasps. It's taken several attempts by Expert Pest Control and Tony the exterminator who's doing his best to rid my yard of these scary looking wasps. I think this is more difficult as they make their nests in the ground and hard to locate every single one. However Tony has gotten rid of most, and coming back again to try to finish up. He and his company have been very patient."
"Dependable Pest Solutions is prompt and on time for every scheduled service. They send reminders to me when they are going to be doing their 90 day check ups ahead of time. They make it easy with sending the report via email and providing me with information regarding what was noticed since the last check-up. I highly recommend this company for any pest need!"
"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."
You can get rid of fleas by taking several steps as quickly as possible. First, consult your pet’s vet to determine the best flea shampoo or medicine to apply to their coat. In conjunction with treating your furry friend, treat your house by washing all linens, including pet bedding, in warm to hot water with detergent. You should also use a strong vacuum on all floor surfaces, spread diatomaceous earth in flea-prone areas, and consider using commercial baits, traps, and powders.
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.
The type and amount of damage pests can cause to your home depends on the type of pest. Some pests, like rodents, often chew through wiring and can cause extensive damage to electrical systems, HVAC systems, walls, and insulation. Additionally, the pest’s waste presents a potential health hazard if it contaminates food or water. Other pests, such as termites, chew through floors, walls, and furniture, causing thousands of dollars in damage and making for costly repairs.
The time it will take to see results from a professional exterminator can vary depending on the type of treatment and the severity of the infestation. You may notice a reduction of ants within a few days, but it can take weeks to months for the treatment to take full effect and kill the entire colony of ants. Make sure to discuss what results you can expect with your exterminator and any post-infestation cleaning you should do after the treatment.
While the spotted lanternfly’s favorite place to stay is the trees and plants they gorge on, they can occasionally congregate in large numbers on buildings and other structures. This may be for height, warmth, or other unknown reasons. However, rest assured that the insects do not do any structural damage to the buildings, and will likely move on within a few weeks or perish with the colder weather.
