"Found Economy Exterminators on The List. Once I realized early in the presentation that I would be paying a bit more annually, I kidded that they change their name to Expensive Exterminators, but realized in a short time why paying a bit more than I thought, was better than paying a bit less than I should (Zig Ziglar quote). Economy Exterminators (EE) comes out every TWO months, rather than every THREE months, which I bought into. Covering more pests than the others, yet seemed to have an Old School and reasonable approach to fixing problems. Here's what got me today. After committing to EE, they came out for a full termite inspection and found no termites, BUT found two unrelated problems in my crawlspace that they took care of. Wow! Very professional from start to finish."
"We absolutely love this company! Our tech, Jeremy, is amazing—so knowledgeable, friendly, and always punctual. He does a fantastic job every time and truly goes above and beyond. We feel incredibly blessed to have Jeremy and Legion Pest Control servicing our home and keeping us protected from all the nasty bugs. Highly recommend!"
"They came out right away and then scheduled the time to come treat our house shortly thereafter. They had a crew and even treated the second floor of the wall that was termite damaged for extra treatment. As a result, we have been using them for pest control since. I definitely recommend them for termite treatment."
"It was a little expensive but it was worth the money...I had 2 squirrels in my attic. The best part was that I honestly felt like Andy really cared about my situation and he followed up after his service twice to check to see if I was having any issues. I absolutely loved that he set up a camera in my attic to show me the activity of those pest... I can't Thank you enough."
"I had perused Angie's list and did not see Critter Control listed. Found them in the Phone book and they had a very detailed and helpful web site. I decided to go with them after calling them. They were punctual and gave us an estimate that was way less than all of the jobs that I had seen from other Angies list vendors. We had squirrels entering our attic. They found the spot and trapped 3 squirrels over about 2 weeks. They then repaired the hole in the vinyl just under the roof. The entire job was about $400.00 which seemed very reasonable compared to other prices that I had seen. I believe our contact guy was Justin and he did a great job. I would absolutely recommend these guys and I would use them again for sure."

"The Pest Control employee arrived earlier than told. He went to work outside and then inside. He asked questions about were the bug problem was the worst. He was very polite and informative."
"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."
"Pest control can be a difficult service to assess, except in cases of a known pest that is eliminated and where demonstrable proof of efficacy is shown. While the agent servicing our particular problem (moles) is cordial and knowledgeable, we will have to wait for a period to see if treatment was effective."
Water bugs won’t actively chase you, but they earned the nickname “toe-biters” for good reason. Water bugs are highly defensive. They typically rest an inch or so below water, waiting for prey. But if they feel threatened by a human that gets close, they may inject the person with a harmless venom from their legs, which may feel like a bite.
Rats are attracted to homes that provide food, water, and shelter. Common attractants include uncovered garbage, pet food left out overnight, crumbs and food spills, and easily accessible pantries. They’re also lured in by leaky pipes, standing water, and cluttered areas like basements or garages. Outdoor factors such as overgrown vegetation or woodpiles near the foundation can create additional nesting opportunities.
There’s little scientific evidence to suggest that homemade remedies to ward off wildlife are effective. But, often, when using them alongside other management techniques, it won’t do any harm to try. Suggestions include using urine-soaked kitty litter or sweat-soaked clothing items. Try applying them around your fence perimeters. Always read the instructions carefully for any commercially-bought repellents and opt for EPA-approved products. Multiple applications, especially after rain, are often necessary.
Whether you should stay in the home during a pest control service depends on the type of treatment. Some types allow you to stay, while others such as fumigation will require you to leave your home. The pest control company will provide specific instructions for the type of service that will be done to ensure you follow the proper protocol to keep you and your family safe.
You can find a variety of humane bird repellent sprays online and at home improvement stores. However, if you want to try a DIY method that will keep birds away without harming them, mix some water, dish soap, and a few drops of peppermint oil and spray the area you want bird-free. Peppermint oil is a notoriously lovely smell for humans, but birds tend to avoid it.
