"Outstanding service from Patriot Pest Control. We had a situation with a raccoon on our property, only to find out that it was actually 3 raccoons. Patriot Pest Control removed and relocated the raccoons in an extremely quickly, humanely, and efficiently. They cleaned up the entire area where the raccoons and traps were. Michelle and Greg were an absolute pleasure to work with. It is extremely clear that they are very knowledgeable about their business and very conscientious with regard to their customers. Their pricing is very fair, and their service is, simply, incomparable. I would highly recommend them for all of your pest control needs. You really have no need to look anyplace else! They are also very community involved and help with various charities, including those for our veterans. That may or may not be important to you, but it is to me. We would not consider any other company for pest control!"

"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."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Both insects can damage wood, but there are key differences between termites and carpenter ants that tell them apart. Carpenter ants tunnel through moist wood, leaving behind smooth tunnels and sawdust-like piles, as they don't eat the wood but rather carve it for nesting. In contrast, termites actually consume wood, creating irregular galleries filled with mud and dirt, and leaving behind mud tubes as their signature. In terms of appearance, carpenter ants have segmented bodies with heart-shaped heads and larger front wings, while termites have more oval bodies with straight antennae and equal-sized wings.

Fleas thrive during the warmer months, starting in March and running through November. However, the prevalence of these pests depends on the climate in your state. That’s why it’s important to stay vigilant for fleas on your pets and property during spring, summer, and fall. Be sure to apply flea prevention sprays and medications to their coats as directed by a veterinarian.

It is very difficult to remove a colony entirely without using some kind of insecticide. However, some treatments are safer than others. Diatomaceous earth is a non-toxic powder application that creates barriers that insects can’t pass through. Some pest control companies offer liquid nitrogen treatments to freeze out termites without using pesticides. Some chemical treatments are safer to use around plants, water, and wildlife than others. Bait stations are generally less damaging to the environment than sprayed termiticides.

To find a quality professional and avoid pest control scams, it's important to do your homework before you hire. Start by reading customer reviews or getting a direct recommendation from a friend, neighbor, or family member. Once you have a shortlist of top-rated companies, verify that each pro is licensed and insured. It’s also a good idea to get multiple price quotes from vetted pros to find the best deal.

The best time of day to spray your yard to repel ticks is in the early morning hours or early in the evening. These times of day tend to be cooler compared with the middle of the day when the sun is hotter. Otherwise, the solution could dry out quicker and prove less effective.
