"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."

"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."

"Since Sage took over my pest control a year ago I have not seen any centipedes at any time ever. The previous company was not able to control these pests even though they were a better known company. I am completely happy with the service Sage has provided and will not use anyone else even though they are a few dollars more than the previous service.

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

You might be tempted to call your local municipality to remove animals from your property, such as a groundhog burrowing in your yard or raccoons getting into your trash cans. However, they typically only remove domestic animals like dogs and cats from properties, or sick and injured wildlife that pose a public safety risk or health threat, such as a rabid animal. They typically do not capture or remove healthy wildlife.

Animal removal professionals have the tools, knowledge, and skills to trap and remove wild animals adequately and humanely. They also can relocate them correctly.

Gel bait and gel bait traps use poison to kill cockroaches, and aren’t safe to use around pets. Many gel bait traps are called “child-resistant,” but this only means that the traps are hard to rip open for children. Large pets and children are still able to swallow them. If you use gel bait, use it in areas where pets and children can’t access them, such as under a washing machine. Another option is to use glue traps, which don’t contain pesticides and are safe to use around pets. 

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.

You can use a homemade spray to kill fleas on a mattress. To make the spray, combine equal parts water and distilled white vinegar. Spray the mixture on the fleas and all over the mattress. Follow this up with a generous sprinkle of salt all over the mattress, and let it sit overnight. Finally, vacuum the mattress to clean up the salt, dead fleas, and flea offspring.

It can be difficult to know what type of animal is in your attic until you see it. But several clues can help you narrow down the suspects:

  • Sounds: Smaller animals like rats and mice make scurrying and tapping/gnawing sounds. Larger animals like raccoons and opossums make louder clambering noises. Also, note when animals are noisy: Squirrels are active during the day, while rats are busiest at night.

  • Droppings: Rats and mice leave small, rice-shaped droppings (the rat’s version is significantly larger). Bigger droppings belong to larger critters like raccoons. As long as you’re not squeamish, an image search can help you identify what you’re seeing in your attic.

When in doubt, take photos of damage or other evidence and show them to an experienced pest control pro.
