"Did an excellent job of sealing up the house. Could not install the one-way vents until after August 15 due to protection for the bats during the breeding season. Will return after that date and finish the job. He only charged for the work that was completed. My neighbor had used him in the past and was well pleased."

We are the experts in animal control. Our Certified Wildlife Specialists focus on ecologically sound and humane animal control solutions for homeowners, property managers, business and government. Please call to schedule your appointment.

"If I could give ZERO stars, I would. This company delivered one of the most disappointing, careless, and blatantly misleading ?services? I?ve ever experienced. I made my request extremely clear: I needed a dead mouse REMOVED from inside my house. Nothing complicated. Nothing unclear. Just do the job I called for. What I got instead was someone walking around the OUTSIDE of my home for about 10 minutes, doing absolutely NOTHING related to the issue, fixing NOTHING, identifying NOTHING, and then charging me $199 for work I never asked for and that provided ZERO value. The dead mouse is still inside untouched because they never even bothered to look. This was NOT a misunderstanding. It was a complete disregard for the customer and a blatant attempt to justify a charge for a service they didn?t perform. It feels predatory, dishonest, and completely unprofessional."

"I hired Daniel to trim the shrubs around my house. His price was very competitive, and he could do the work within a week, so I hired him. He did the work but did not remove all of the clippings, and evidently, he used his mower to remove some of the clippings, which resulted in several bald spots in my yard. He offered to come seed the spots and remove the clippings, but...he has gone silent now that I have paid him. I GET IT!!! Trust is earned!"

"I was feeling extremely vulnerable and totally powerless at the thought of bed bugs in my home. I have children so I immediately began making phone calls after I was given the wrong advice by the internet. I panicked when I began to imagine what the possible treatments could look like, as well as the disruption in my home for my children. I spoke with a very kind woman ( operator ) who eased my stress level and answered all questions in a professional and compassionate manner. She seemed very knowledgeable, but equally as important, very understanding and nurturing. Then came Ben. This guy was super informative and was in no hurry to answer any and all questions. He genuinely cares, and I did not feel like just a number sharing all of my concerns and fears. Ben was honest, patient, and knowledgeable. Very personable and a true bug expert. The dog was a cool touch, too. Thank your for all your help, Jason"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

You’re not likely to find water bugs in your house. They may accidentally come in an open door when flying, especially since they are attracted to lights. But water bugs tend to stay stationary in bodies of water. You’re much more likely to see a roach in your home, not a water bug.

For a minor infestation, you can expect to clear up a German cockroach problem in about two weeks. That’s usually enough time to confirm that they don’t have additional hiding spots and aren’t continuing to encroach from an outside source. If you have a major infestation and use the services of a pest control company, it can take several weeks and multiple visits to fully clear your home, up to a couple of months.

Eliminate standing water, use mosquito-repellent plants, and maintain regular treatments for best results.

If the cat is stray (you noticed a collar or other signs of domestication), the kind thing to do is to try and find the owner. Call around to other neighbors to see if they can lead you in the right direction. If you can get close enough to snap a picture, try posting an image of the cat to local community groups and pages on social media. 

If the cat is feral, you can try to humanely trap them and participate in a local shelter’s TNR program. Before attempting capture, call around to local rescues and shelters to make sure one near you does participate in a TNR program. They may even be able to catch the cat for you.

The best scorpion repellents are strong scents such as lavender, cedar, peppermint, and cinnamon, so applying essential oils around entry points can help deter them from coming near your home. They also tend to avoid well-lit areas, instead seeking out dark, cool, and damp places where they can hide out during the day.
