"I had a fantastic experience with Ehrlich Southeast. Their customer service was excellent, from scheduling the appointment to the completion of the service. Their technicians were friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient, and they ensured my property was pest-free. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of pest control services."
"I needed to setup ongoing pest control servicing my my Mother's house and Clegg's was not only knowledgable, courteous and professional...they were prompt and very reasonably priced."
"TruGreen provided transparent pricing and quality workmanship when treating my property for bed bugs. Their technicians were professional and thorough, ensuring every area was treated to eliminate the infestation. I appreciated their attention to detail and how they followed up to ensure the problem was resolved. I'll definitely be using their services again if needed."
"First, let me say that the exterminator that came to my home each time was the NICEST guy. This review is not about him, but about the company and my experience. We purchased a yearly contract for quarterly exterminations. I had to call them in January to find out when they were coming for my 3rd treatment, as they were late in coming. I called them again in March as a service call. We were experiencing way too many spiders still. Secure pest came out and treated for the spiders. Fast forward to June 2016-I received a call about renewing my contract. I mentioned that I never had my fourth treatment. I was told that the March visit WAS my last treatment. I tried explaining that the March visit was a service call (which I've had before). March had not even been 3 months since their last visit, and I am the one that called them and asked them to come out. I did leave a voicemail asking them to double check their records, but I never heard back from anyone at Secure Pest. I am disappointed in this company and will find someone else that cares to stick to the contract. Spiders are way worse than before I started using this company anyhow.
"Came for first treatment in July and afterwards there were no mosquitoes. Came back in August and no mosquitoes. I call that a success and for the first time in years I can get out in my yard in the summer without being attacked by tiny insects. "
"The only reason I did not hire this company is I am in negotiations to sell my house and buyer decided to complete pest control in lieu of closing cost assistance. Otherwise, I would have definitely used this company because of their professionism, efficiency, knowledge sharing, pricing and friendliness."
"Excellent experience ! Fast response. Knowledgable technicians and thorough attention to detail. Had pest control and application of termite prevention system. Drilled, treated, and filled garage and basement slabs. Very polite. Cleaned up everything thoroughly. Would definitely recommend ."
"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."
"Let me start by saying, Ant issues is the reason I contracted this company. I got the first service for 45.00 which I have read in other posts for varying amounts. The tech that came out (at 6:00 pm on Saturday and took about 30 minutes total) This was the time set by the phone call from a supervisor within seconds of paying the sales rep. The treatment was following a 4pm birthday party during the time I was trying to clean up after 30+ kids, which I tried to tell them was NOT a good idea. 3 days later I still had ants. The tech was not thorough with the application in my opinion. he granulated the yard and mulch beds with less that a coffee can sized spreader ( I have almost 100 feet of bedding 6' wide) I did pest control in the early 90's. when I questioned him and explained I was a certified pest control tech in days past I was told everything is completely different now and I basically dint know jack. No surprise that I had to get them back out a week later because my ant problem was unchanged. I was told to keep my house clean and caulk 2 small cracks under my patio door trim. I have OCD about germs you can eat off the floors in my house, secondly an ant can fit its body through any hole he can fit his head through. It is an impossibility to "calk" your house to an ant proof state. Not Happy, would not recommend, would not use again"
Yes. While cellar spiders can seem creepy or scary, they’re essential to the ecosystem. They feed on smaller insects in your home or elsewhere, keeping those populations in check. They’re also food for birds and small animals, so if you let a cellar spider live and simply transport it outside your house, you’re letting the natural cycle continue undisturbed.
Many policyholders wonder if home warranties will cover pest control services. Unfortunately, for most basic plans, they don’t. However, some companies offer premium plans and add-ons that can cover pest control, but even these will often come with limitations. It's crucial to review the specific details of your home warranty policy to determine if pest control is covered and to understand any limitations, such as maximum payout amounts or specific pest exclusions.
Exterminators can get rid of your current ant problem, but they won’t prevent ants from coming back. So it’s important to implement ant preventatives to avoid future infestations.
The primary reason ants enter your home is to find food. If they can’t find any, they won’t survive. So, the most effective way to prevent ant infestations is to clean, clean, and clean some more.
Keep your kitchen sparkling and wash your dishes immediately (or at least give them a quick rinse and wash off leftover food). Take out your garbage and compost as often as possible and tightly seal all your kitchen containers, especially the mason jars you use to hold your sugar—sugar is gold to ants.
You can also hire a local handyperson to help you prevent future ant infestations. The handyman can seal cracks and fix leaks throughout your home, which will keep any ants from entering.
Groundhogs are non-aggressive animals that are afraid of humans. They forage for vegetation in yards and gardens, so they can often be seen as a nuisance if you spot one on your property. That said, if you happen to get bitten or scratched by a fearful groundhog, be sure to get checked by a doctor, as they could carry infections or diseases like rabies, Lyme, or the rare tularemia.
Adult fleas can live a few days to a couple of weeks on your couch if they don't have a host to feed on. However, flea eggs, larvae, and pupae can live much longer, even several months, with the right conditions. That is why it’s vital to eradicate them from your couch and other upholstered furniture.
