Customers say: Quick response

"I received a call from First Choice Pest Control within a few minutes of inquiring, late Friday. An appointment was made for Monday, and the worker arrived a few minutes before the expected window. He was polite, explained everything well, and provided additional resources for preventative methods. It took about 30 or less to treat for carpenter ants, so the price seemed a bit high but it seems average going rate. They guarantee their work for a year. Convenient to pay on line. Would use them again!"

"I took three bids to take care of the squirrels that invaded my attic. I am so glad that I chose Apex and that was based on the inspection that was done by Jacob who did the the estimate on the work needed to be done. He did a much more thorough job of examining the situation and identifying what needed to be done to remove the pests and moreover, all of the areas of the house, foundation, bricks, cracks, or openings around windows and doors to be repaired to keep pests from reentering. He was able to find more places and showed me with photographs what else needed to be done and the information he provided showed that he had the experience and expertise that I wanted for the job. Nathan, who came out to do the work was also very personable, courteous, and efficient and when Jacob came back to review what had been done he explained all of what happened and then talked in detail about how this would be followed up in the coming weeks. I have been very satisfied with their work and plan to use them again for another project."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, pyrethrins and pyrethroids are the most common chemical compounds used to get rid of bed bugs. These chemicals force bed bugs out of their hiding spots and kill them on the spot so they are eliminated for good. Only professional exterminators can apply these treatments, and they are reserved for severe infestations.

Whether you should stay in the home during a pest control service depends on the type of treatment. Some types allow you to stay, while others such as fumigation will require you to leave your home. The pest control company will provide specific instructions for the type of service that will be done to ensure you follow the proper protocol to keep you and your family safe.

While foxes may find them unpleasant, mothballs are not an effective deterrent. Additionally, mothballs are toxic for humans and animals and should never be used outside. They contain naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene, which are very harmful to the environment. Use safer, more reliable deterrents, or hire a professional wildlife control expert.

Ask your friends and family for recommendations for exterminators. You can also browse online for reputable ant control companies in your area—make sure they have glowing reviews and the proper licenses and permits. 

Give them a call, and they can take a look at your infestation, determine the type of ant they’re dealing with, and give you a cost estimate. Then, you can compare quotes and choose the pro that’s right for you.

Leaving lights on is not an effective or foolproof method for keeping cockroaches away. While roaches are nocturnal and prefer darkness, light alone is not enough to stop them, especially if they are seeking food, water, or shelter. A bright light might temporarily discourage them, but hungry or determined roaches will often adapt and venture into lit areas. For more effective cockroach control, it is better to focus on proven prevention methods. These include maintaining cleanliness by eliminating food crumbs, sealing cracks and entry points, reducing clutter that provides hiding spots, and fixing any moisture issues. Using traps or repellents can also be part of a comprehensive strategy.
