"This is an ongoing project lasting over a year.
So far so good.
Probably for such long term projects dealing with pest removal from grounds, it would be helpful to set expectations early of what is to be expected for rodent treatment. In addition, better education for clients who receive such services on what progress over time looks like when hired to tackle the problem."
"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."

"Great! After calling five companies for quotes (three of which never called back), Nate called right away. And, after talking to him and getting my questions answered, he came out that same day! Nate was very professional and thorough, he sprayed around my house and removed the bird nests. We haven’t had a bird mite since. I would definitely hire Defender Pest Control again!"

Squirrels hate not having access to secure shelter or food sources. Your best line of defense is to make your property less attractive by removing access to these things. There are chemical squirrel repellents, but these have mixed success. According to Pennsylvania State University, you can apply products containing the bittering agent denatonium saccharide to a squirrel's favorite fence, tree, or roof spots. However, you need to reapply repellents regularly, which aren’t scientifically proven effective.
To clean a trash can with maggots, combine chlorine bleach and hot water in a 1-to-1 ratio and pour about half a gallon of the solution into the bottom of your garbage can. Just make sure there aren’t holes in the can before doing so. Close the lid, and let the fumes go to work to kill the maggots. Rinse the can with a hose outside. Consider finishing up with a bleach disinfectant and a scrub brush before letting the can dry completely. You can also consider hiring an exterminator near you for a quick, easy solution to maggots in your garbage cans.
Cleaning your home after discovering fleas is an all-day job, but this may not be the last you see of them. Some fleas are resistant to initial treatments and may lay eggs that will hatch after your first pass. Continue with treatments for one to two months to fully eradicate them.
High-frequency bird repellent devices are effective at driving away birds, which is their intended purpose. However, these devices also tend to have unintended negative consequences. For example, if you or your neighbors own pets, the high-pitched noise emitted by these electronic devices will cause them distress and may even make them aggressive.
If you suddenly have an infestation of gnats in your house, don’t worry, it’s relatively easy to spot the cause and resolve it quickly. Gnats are drawn to moisture and decaying organic matter, so they love to snack on unsealed produce, flowers, plants, and food or liquid spills. A common spot to find gnats is inside your kitchen sink drain because it provides a hospitable environment for them to live and breed.
