"They came over the same day and within 30 minutes had gotten rid of the birds nest and covered it with a pest cover. And they found another vent in the soffit that was missing a cover and patched that up as well. Great service, job well done, very responsive. Could not be happier with the service. Thank you."
"Justin came out the same day I called and began the process of setting traps for squirrel removal. He also sealed and secured the attic and other vulnerable areas. Excellent knowledge and work!"
"Jason and assistant were very prompt in time of arrival, and took great care to explain everything relating to the clearing of birds nesting within multiple air vent outlets of our home. Work was completed in a timely manner and appeared to be effective in resolving the problem of the birds that had invaded our air duct outlet vents. Additionally, Jason took extra care in safely extracting a couple of baby birds and after reconstructing their nest, placed that nest in a nearby tree to allow those infant birds a chance of survival success."
"We were having a problem with squirrels in our attic. We had a roofer repair the entry hole, but after about 6 months, the squirrels chewed two new entrances into our attic, one of which was right next to the original repair. We decided weâ d best contact a wildlife removal company. After calling several companies, we were impressed with Nathan, the owner of SoloCal Wildlife Removal. He was polite and informative. He took an online screen shot of our home and indicated on the photo where he thought our house was vulnerable, and he was exactly right. We asked him to come out and give us an estimate because of his initiative and professionalism. We ended up selecting SoloCal Wildlife Removal for the reasons above, but also for his reasonable pricing, and the fact that he is a local small business owner. Nathan promptly took care of our squirrel problem and thoroughly and neatly repaired the entry holes. Plus, he guarantees his work for a year. We would certainly recommend him to others."
"I received an immediate call from the owner, Tony, who scheduled to come out on the same day. We scheduled for 1:00pm but it was about 3:30pm before he arrived. I ended up calling him as he was tied up checking wrapping up another job. Tony came and accessed the issue and did a GREAT job of explaining how he needed to resolve the issue. I had birds that had started to nest in an outside air vent. Tony removed two nests, sprayed and covered up both air vents. He was professional and I would definitely recommend hiring him. Price was fair and there were no surprises. He came back out on Sunday (today) to finish installing two other covers that he was unable to finish on yesterday as he did not have the covers on his truck."
"Yes, they were everything I wanted to have done. Avispa’s employee did an excellent job. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for pest control."
"They were suppose to take the shutters off and wash them, but they could not get the shutters off. Once off, they were going to put a material in the back of them so that bats would not be able to enter under our shutters any longer. Instead, they had to fill them with foam. "
"I have been a customer of Bugg Busters Inc. for 15 years. I met the owner Gary Ward at one of my rental homes on the first visit. He was honest and told me that nothing was needed at the home in the area of Termite work. I started using Bugg Busters after that at all my rentals and at my home. Bugg Busters completed waterproofing at my office in Lincolnton last year. I had water pouring in from the road out front of my office. The Bugg Busters team installed a drain system and treated my building for termites. They also put down plastic to control the moisture. My favorite service they offer is the EZ Breathe which is a house ventilation system. No more bad odors from my dogs or from that crawl space. I have the Ez Breathe at my home, office and my mothers house. I will continue to use this company for years to come."
Woodpeckers peck at the break of dawn and take a break whenever the sun is not shining. On sunny days, expect pecking from dawn to dusk. On cloudy days, expect sporadic pecking when the sun peeks through. These birds are most active in the spring; you’ll hear them drumming as soon as the weather turns warm.
If you’ve had a prior bat infestation or simply want to avoid having bats invade your home in the first place, there are a few steps you can take without the need for a pro.
Seal entry points, such as where your chimney meets your house, or other gaps or holes exist.
Use bat deterrents like bright lights or ultrasonic devices to force them away from your home.
Reduce bat attractions like standing water and bird nectar feeders inviting bats into your yard.
It is possible, though unlikely, that a home insurance policy will help cover the costs of professional bat removal. However, some policies will chip in for guano removal and associated repairs, such as replacing drywall. Take some time to read the fine print of your homeowner’s insurance policy and call your provider to inquire about bat removal, guano removal, and related repairs.
Woodpeckers may seek out homes with aluminum siding or tin roofs because these surfaces echo their drumming. Homes with wood siding are more frequently targeted as roosting areas or for food sources. If you have insects living in the exposed wood in your home, the birds are likely looking for a snack, in which case your best option is to hire an exterminator.
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.
