"We thought we had one or more bats. They thought we had mice, so they treated for mice. In addition to bait stations, they looked over the house and sealed all they could, though they had to come back 2-3 more times to continue checking and finding new holes to seal. We are still not sure we are rid of the mice that are in the house. We did recently find 2 dead mice outside the house. Hard to know."

"Best Wildlife Solutions was very professional and responsive. Mike was personable and knowledgeable and he kept in touch with me throughout the process of evicting my raccoon tenants. I had used another service several years previously which had not only not trapped any raccoons, but had failed to find the entry points or to repair the damage done when several raccoons fell through my attic soffits. Best Wildlife caught three raccoons, sealed up all entry points, replaced damaged soffits and did everything possible to ensure that my attic will not again be occupied by these unwanted raccoon squatters. I cannot recommend this company highly enough. If you want the job done right, be sure to hire Best Wildlife Solutions. They really are the best!"

"Larry and his team have been taking care of both our Cabin and our Home for over 10 years. We previously had a well known national pest control company that treated the symptom of our problems without getting to the cause of them. We had mice (mouse?) issues, the national company brought traps, Larry took the time to figure out where they were getting in and eliminated it. We use Blackhawk’s annual plan for both Home and Cabin, and couldn’t be happier . "

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

The time of day that most snakes are active is at night. This is when they prefer to hunt since they can do so under the cover of darkness, out of sight of predators and the prey they stalk. However, some snake species prefer very hot temperatures and are strictly active during the day.

They can have a deterrent effect on birds to some extent. The reflective surfaces of these objects, such as aluminum foil strips, CDs, or reflective tape, create flashes of light and movement that can startle or confuse birds temporarily. However, some birds can become accustomed to these visual disturbances over time and might adapt their behavior accordingly. For a more sustained solution, combining shiny objects with other deterrent methods shared here is often beneficial for creating a more comprehensive and effective strategy for bird control.

There are several possible reasons for a gnat infestation, and they vary based on the type of insect. One common reason is overwatering houseplants, which can create a moist environment that is attractive to fungus gnats. Another reason is leaving fruit out on the counter for too long, which can attract fruit flies. Drain flies are typically attracted by standing water and bacteria that are often the result of buildup or a clog in your drain or sewer line.

Yes, it is generally safe to return to your house once the pest control professionals have granted permission. Keep in mind that you’ll only need to evacuate your home during extreme pest control treatments, such as whole-home fumigation, while more minor treatments don’t require leaving. When you return home, be sure to follow the pest pro’s instructions carefully, especially those surrounding wait times and safety precautions.

Brown recluse spiders are found in Midwestern and South Central states like Nebraska, Ohio, Texas, and Georgia. While it’s possible to find spiders from the same genus elsewhere in the country, you’re unlikely to find a brown recluse infestation outside of these designated zones. In any case, there are other dangerous spider species across the U.S., so always use caution when dealing with infestations of any kind.
