"We came home to an unexpected wasp nest on the inside of our basement wall. Recon came and safely removed the nest. They filled in all the holes where the wasps were getting in, and sprayed around our house for additional bugs. The whole process was done timely and with care to us and our dog. This is a great company and I will recommend them to anyone who needs or has problems with bugs and pesky wasps."

At Greenix Pest Control, we know that effective pest control is a process, not a one-time fix.

"When their sales men knocked at my door, promised me a bunch of service including getting rid of spiders, red ants around my pool, told me very easy to cancel if we are not happy. After a year service more spiders on my deck , we have thousands times more gnats , can?t even open my back door to let dogs out without thousands of gnats flying in. My husband finally pissed so i called them to cancel , they made it impossible to cancel it. Threatening me sending me to collections agency if i don?t use them, lied saying the reasons are that because my credit card was not valid which is lie , my credit on file wasn?t valid anymore but i had been paying them and they had been coming to my house but my son told me all they did just walked around my front yard . Never got up my deck , for $136 per month that?s definitely scam. Stay away from this company they are scam making it impossible to cancel they will lie, threat you when you are cancelling their service."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Anecdotal evidence suggests coffee grounds can keep chipmunks away. Sprinkle them throughout your garden, yard, and plants to help deter them. As an added bonus, coffee grounds can help keep the slugs away, and they’re great for acid-loving plants such as hydrangeas, azaleas, and rhododendrons.

Squash bugs technically aren’t invasive, as they are native to North America. However, this doesn’t mean that they aren’t incredibly destructive. These pests can cause significant damage to squash, pumpkins, and other cucurbit crops by feeding on plant sap and injecting toxins that cause leaves to wilt, dry out, and die. In large numbers, squash bugs can decimate entire plants (especially younger ones), making them a major nuisance for home gardeners and commercial growers alike.

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.

To freeze bed bugs, they’ll need to be exposed to very low temperatures of 0 degrees Fahrenheit or lower for at least 4 days. You can use a remote thermostat to determine when the infested item reaches 0 degrees. Keep in mind that bed bug professionals have the high-quality tools and equipment needed to eradicate bugs using extreme cold, so it’s best to hire a pro for this method.

Fleas are master hiders, so they’re always looking for safe spots. In addition to living directly on your pets, they’re likely to hide in bedding materials, not unlike the infamous bed bugs. They also like carpet and thick grass, for similar reasons. They’re more likely to hang around dirt and debris in general, which is why it’s important to keep the home clean.
