the owner came out and explained why who I hired before did not work. What he did made sense. I just thought it was expensive $800 for him being on my roof for less than an hour. But if it works it is worth it.

He quoted my wife $400 for the motor. He charged $575.00. The motor sells for $350.00. He made an appointment to replace the motor, but showed up two days later. Tried to question about the pricing of the motor, but received no response.

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Contact pest control if you have a stink bug infestation that you need to eliminate quickly. It’s difficult to kill them without crushing them and releasing their signature odor, or without using a toxic insecticide. Some homeowners have had luck with peppermint oil sprays or soapy water traps. But a professional exterminator will have the best advice and course of action.

Preventing rats and mice from getting into the attic can be challenging, but it’s not impossible. Here are a few steps you can take to keep them looking elsewhere for a new place to call home:

Block or cover any potential access holes
Keep piles or stacks of firewood or other materials away from the house
Seal food and garbage in containers to prevent rodents from chewing through or getting in

Some snake repellents are risky to use around people and pets because they use the active ingredient in mothballs, naphthalene. The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has classified naphthalene as a carcinogen that can cause damage to the liver, neurological issues, and cataracts.

The Colorado State University Extension suggests there’s not enough conclusive evidence of the effectiveness of snake repellents to recommend their use.

Regular cleaning, sealing cracks, and inspecting second-hand furniture help prevent infestations.

Effective methods include topical treatments, oral medications, fogging, and insect growth regulators. Professional pest control guarantees comprehensive results.
