"I was told bed bugs had infested my old mattress as the mattress techs were removing it (they actually refused to remove it; I had to ask a passerby for help). I contacted Heathy Home Pest Control and was told to put potentially affected clothing in the dryer for an hour and bag them tightly. A tech came the next day. He found no bed bugs in my bedroom but rather carcasses of bugs under the love seat in my living room. The tech sprayed thoroughly and explained all about bed bugs. I have 10 days to call back if I see any bugs."

"John was very professional and efficient. He was able to get to us fairly quickly. He explained what he needed to do and approximately how long it would take. He also came back a few weeks later and cleaned and sanitized the area, which was helpful to my husband and I."

"Chris was great to work with. We had him come out to remove 3 groundhogs.He was very friendly and kind throughout the whole process. He genuinely cares about both his customers and the animals he works with. He was very gentle and humane with the wildlife, which was important to us. He was also incredibly responsive and would come pick up traps as fast as possible so the animals weren’t sitting around. His pricing was very reasonable. I highly recommend Chris if you need wildlife removal and want someone who actually cares about doing things the right way."

"Our experience with Batman Enterprises was great. He was able to come out a day earlier than scheduled, cleaned out the bird nest and mud daubers in out fireplace and installed a vent screen that was missing. He was very professional and knowledgeable and I would highly recommend them to anyone."

"Needed moles removed from yard. Scott was able to come out the next day and place traps. He will come every two weeks or so to check the traps and will continue to remove any moles caught over the next year. Was actually surprised at how reasonable the price was for the service."

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

There are several ways to dry out flea eggs. Diatomaceous earth (DE) is a natural ingredient that can dry out fleas, but it’s messy to apply and can also cause respiratory issues for members of your household if inhaled. Salt is safer and easier to apply, so shake it liberally over affected areas. Boric acid is another way to get rid of fleas and other insects, but this, too, can cause respiratory issues and health problems if inhaled or ingested.

Squirrels rely heavily on their sense of smell and are deterred by a variety of scents. Some of the most effective smells for repelling them include peppermint oil, coffee grounds, white vinegar, garlic, cinnamon, rosemary, and predator urine. They also have a strong aversion to capsaicin, the compound that makes chili peppers hot, making capsaicin-based sprays an effective repellent for areas like gardens or bird feeders. For a DIY solution, you can create a spray from garlic and vinegar and apply it daily. Additionally, squirrels dislike strong, fresh scents, so placing items like strong-smelling soaps or dryer sheets in areas they frequent can also help keep them away.

Once the animals and their young are out of the house, remove the nest and locate any entry points. Some may be difficult to find because some animals can fit through very small holes. Once you’ve located as many entry points as possible, use materials such as metal or masonry to block off the entry. Ideally, you should choose materials that most animals cannot chew through. Create a one-way door or flap to allow animals to leave but not return. Additional methods include using repellants designed to make an area unappealing to the types of animals that find your home so inviting. 

There are several ways to make your yard a less attractive habitat for moles. Protect your garden beds by installing a fence or other barrier about 2 to 3 feet deep around your garden.

Moles eat insects, so grub removal is another important way to prevent moles from destroying your yard.

Likewise, remove tree stumps, dead leaves, and other debris that attract insects to your lawn. Some plants will deter moles as well, including daffodils, marigolds, crown imperial, and alliums, like garlic or onions.

Like many other rodents, squirrels can be a little difficult to get rid of (especially in the case of an infestation), but the best approach is to make the place as unattractive to squirrels as possible. If you do have an infestation inside your home, then professional help may be necessary so you can lay as many traps as possible.
