"Main lead tech, Ron, did well hooking coil to outside compressor. The asst tech went under house to install new cooling coil to ductwork. He bent ductwork, taped it with insulation tape that connects coil to duct work. He failed to tell main tech what he did, but also main tech failed to check asst tech's work under house. The unit was working when they left. But they only ran it lil bit. Because it was a cool week we did not need to run a/c.. When temp rose, we turned on a/c. Worked for about 2 hours, when air pressure eventually blew insulation tape apart which allowed all the air to go under house. In turn, it froze up cooling coil & compressor. After calling, texting, etc for 3+ days, with no answer or response, we had to call another company to come because we had no a/c. The new company told us what had happened & gave us estimate. We said go ahead because we had no a/c. He went under house, removed bent ductwork with tape still on, & brought to us to see. He replaced the ductwork, & attached ductwork to cooling coil. He ran a system check with professional tools which is how he determined the previous tech added too much freon. So the additional cost for 2nd a/c company was $350. In addition to the already $800 we already paid Bellcow."

"They did a great job. They solved all the problems I had with the chimney and it’s been working perfectly ever since. They also fixed a problem on the roof around the chimney; they replaced the wood around the chimney with a material that would never rot, so they fixed it even better than it was before. It took them a couple of days to do the work. They took care of all the cleanup as well. We've been real happy with them."

Animal Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Whether you, your dog, or your cat has been sprayed, Poison Control recommends using a solution of 1 quart of 3% (household strength) hydrogen peroxide, ¼ cup of baking soda, and 1 teaspoonful of liquid dish detergent mixed together and immediately applied to the sprayed fur or skin to get rid of skunk smell. After leaving it on for five minutes, rinse with water. If your eyes get sprayed, rinse for at least 15 minutes with room-temperature water.

Simply put,  there are much better approaches than using mothballs. Mothballs contain chemicals that can easily permeate a frog's delicate skin, leading to health problems. But it's not limited to just frogs; other animals and the environment could also face negative impacts. The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has taken action. It emphasizes the importance of adhering to label instructions for products like this and not moving forward with off-label use.

Some animals, such as bats or birds, will be able to get out of chimneys on their own since they can fly. Other animals, however, may have a harder time and will require the help of a professional to escape. Squirrels and raccoons in particular may become stuck inside a chimney, especially if you have a buildup of soot or creosote inside. This can prevent them from being able to climb out, in which case you’ll need to call an animal control expert to help remove them.

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. 

Droppings from cockroaches, squirrels, mice, bats, and birds can resemble rat poop, making it easy to confuse one for another. Mouse droppings are smaller and more pointed, cockroach droppings resemble tiny black specks or ground pepper, and bat guano can look similar but usually crumbles into powder. Bird droppings sometimes have a similar shape, but often include white uric acid deposits. If in doubt, it’s best to consult a pest control professional for proper identification and removal.
