"Came quite quickly (under 2 hours) and got the bird out of my basement. They also performed an inspection to see how the bird got in and provided a free estimate for some other services they could perform. I was not pressured at all to do those other services."
"I highly recommend this exceptional business, whose knowledgeable and professional staff consistently demonstrate a genuine interest in helping their clients. They are punctual, courteous, and willing to address any questions or concerns. Their commitment to safely using their products and providing outstanding service makes them the ideal choice for all pest control needs."
"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."
"George is awesome!!!! He gave us a quote before coming out and stuck to it. He did a thorough review of our house, inside and out, and gave us feedback as he went around about what should be addressed and what wasn't needed. He sprayed for bugs and sealed up parts of our house where mice and other animals could enter. I would definitely recommend Elite Pest control to anyone!"
"Perfect. Pests stay gone with proper maintenance. Defender Pest Control is prompt, reliable, knowledgeable, and most importantly, EFFECTIVE. Will definitely use again."
"They went above and beyond in extracting 3 baby birds that had built a nest in our bathroom vent. It took multiple trips and some acrobatics on the roof but they made sure the birds were extracted and relocated. Would highly recommend!"
"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

Small amounts of geese are actually good for the environment. They help spread seeds and lead to more plant growth, but they’re often an invasive species, particularly Canadian geese. This means a small gaggle can quickly grow into a level that litters your lawn with bald patches and excrement.
Natural swimming pools are designed to deter pests, including mosquitoes. While any body of water can potentially attract pests, the natural filtration system keeps the water clean and constantly moving. Mosquitoes specifically are attracted to standing water, so the continuously circulating water in a natural pool makes it an inhospitable environment for them.
The best animal repellents for gardens include a variety of different scents. You can use predator urine to keep away deer, raccoons, squirrels, and more. The odor will tell the critters that your yard is a dangerous place. Other scents that repel critters are herbs like lavender, geranium, and mint. You can also use hot pepper, garlic, and strong-smelling soap.
No, you shouldn’t have to worry about bats in your yard as long as they don’t make their way inside your house. Typically, bats hang around backyards in order to consume bugs, especially if they’re located in the U.S. Bats that are native to North America can consume more than 500 bugs per hour, so they may actually benefit your yard if mosquitoes are prevalent.
When woodpeckers start banging on your walls or roof, they are probably looking for insects to eat, storing nuts for winter, drilling a hole to make a nest, or communicating with other birds to establish territory or find a mate.
The size of the hole can help determine the reason for the pecking. Small irregular holes are a result of insect hunts. Acorn holes are more consistently sized and often fitted with a nut in the middle. Nest holes are large and have rounded edges. If the bird is pecking to mark its territory or attract a mate, it may leave dents rather than holes, and the noise will stop when the mating season starts in spring.
