"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."
"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.
"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"
There are a few ways to keep pesky bugs away from your garden. One option you have is to plant flowers so beneficial insects like ladybugs can control pests for you. A similar method is companion planting, which means you’ll grow vegetables that’ll discourage pests, like garlic, onions, and basil. The best pest prevention method will depend on the bugs you have issues with and the plants in your garden.
While there are many sweet, ripe, or fermented items that attract fruit flies, the clear winner is apple cider vinegar. The liquid is sweet, potent, and fermented, making it the perfect bait for luring fruit flies into your trap.
A solution of vinegar and water can deter moles, but be careful about the strength of the solution. Too much vinegar can dry out and kill grass or other plants when distributed too frequently.
If you’ve spotted a skunk or know that one of these furry creatures sprayed one of your family members, your answer is fairly obvious. However, a skunky smell in your house that isn’t coming from these critters may be a sign of a dangerous gas leak. If you suspect this, leave your home immediately and call emergency services. It could also be a build-up of dangerous gas in your home’s septic system or plumbing. Call a professional plumber near you to make an assessment.
Using chemicals with harsh odors is a natural way to repel bears. While the animal’s strong sense of smell is an asset in the animal kingdom, it’s a weakness here. Simply place bleach or ammonia in a bucket and leave it outside day or night. Ironically, bears also dislike the smell of pine, so you can use pine oil or a pine-based cleaning agent. Avoid using cleaning products with fruit or citrus smells, however.
