"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."
"Michael Hengerer was the technician from Bulwark Exterminating that did my initial pest control service. I was so impressed with his knowledge, attitude and professionalism that I intend to ask that he be my regular rep. It was a pleasure dealing with him and he did a lot of things my previous pest control company did not do and, because of that, I have high hopes that I'll enjoy having Bulwark as my pest control company."
"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."

Skunks spray as a defense mechanism to ward off predators. The active ingredient in their sulfurous, oily musk is n-butyl mercaptan, which evaporates into a powerful and smelly gas. Once the spray hits the skunk’s target, the stench can linger for days, and water and common cleaning kits aren’t enough to wash it away.
If you happen upon a skunk in your yard, try to back away slowly to reduce the chance of them aiming at you. Encouragingly, they don’t use their weapon casually, as it can take up to 10 days for their life-saving weaponry to refill. Paw stamping, hissing, lifting their tail, and arching their back are early signs they feel trapped or under threat and that it’s time to make a careful retreat.
Stink bugs hate strong, fragrant scents like clove, lemongrass, spearmint, and Ylang Ylang, so you can use essential oils as a natural deterrent. (Always keep them out of reach of your pets!) In the garden, plants like lavender, garlic, and catnip can ward off stink bugs thanks to their pungent aroma. Also, avoid decorating with white, as stink bugs are oddly attracted to it.
Ant and termite infestations look very different. Since termites feed on wood, one of the warning signs of their presence is drooping drywall, peeling paint, loose floor tiles, and crumbling wood. On the other hand, ants feed on plant- and animal-based food options, so you’ll likely spot a colony near your home’s food sources. If you’re unsure what type of pest infestation you have, hire a pest control specialist to inspect for you.
There’s no denying the striking resemblance, but squash bugs are different from the brown marmorated stink bug. While both are shield-shaped and emit a foul odor when crushed, they belong to different insect families and target different plants. Squash bugs primarily attack squash, pumpkins, and other cucurbits, while stink bugs have a much broader range of host plants, including fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants. Their eggs and feeding damage also differ, making proper identification key for effective pest control.
Will coffee grounds get rid of squash bugs?
What smell do squash bugs hate?
Cockroaches are attracted to the smell of food. They're particularly attracted to grease, meat, cheese, sugar, and starch. Any rotten food such as fruits or vegetables puts off a strong odor that attracts the pests as well. Even dirty clothing can be enticing for cockroaches, which is why they're often found in laundry baskets.
