"Dave was excellent. He was professional, honest and thorough. I thought I may have squirrels in the house because I heard scratching above a ceiling and saw a squirrel climbing my chimney with acorns in it's mouth. Dave inspected all the outside areas of my house and looked in my attic. He found no evidence of squirrels or bats or anything else (other than a few mice that I can take care of). He screened off my two gable vents and recommended securing a couple of other entry prone areas which I can do. I highly recommend Colonial Pest Control. "
"Identify Pest Control was knowledgeable, kind, professional and efficient. He came to the house within the expected time frame and was easy to talk to. When we suspected a rodent problem, he was able to find the area where mice were getting in and seal them to keep new ones from coming in. I highly recommend Identify Pest Control."
"From the first communication these guys were great. Communicate effectively and in a timely manner. Take action when needed. I also have no pest problems anymore which is AWESOME!"
"I had a fantastic experience with Milltown Pest Control! They came out quickly and treated a ground hornets nest in my horse paddock. They assured me that all the products used were animal safe and would bring no harm to my horses. They fixed my problem quickly and were extremely friendly and easy to work with. Would highly recommend this company to anyone, especially if you have animals and want to be sure they are safe."

"Very knowledgeable guy who seem to know what he’s doing. Don’t know results of spraying. Have had much rain since. Will have to see if it worked. Terminex will spray again the beginning of next month."
"I had someone come check out my situation and it turned out I didn’t need their services and it was free of charge. I appreciate you coming and confirming that I don’t have a bat issue as it’s something much less serious. I will call Dependable Pest next time I think I have a pest issue for their honesty!"
Bleach, which can kill drain flies, can also kill fruit flies, but it’s better to lure fruit flies to a liquid rather than applying chemicals, as it’s very difficult to reach them all. A more practical approach is to lure fruit flies with traps made from liquids like apple cider vinegar mixed with dish soap. This method is safer and more efficient, since it targets a larger number of fruit flies without relying on harsh chemicals that may not reach all the pests.
You can make a DIY frog repellent with salt, citric acid, or vinegar. Spray the repellent around your pool to deter frogs from jumping in.
No, mothballs do not keep bats away. Not only are mothballs completely ineffective when repelling or removing bats, but using them could be illegal, depending on where you live. Remember, bats are federally protected, and it's illegal to use chemicals during the removal process, and mothballs tend to fall into this category.
Several skin conditions and insect bites can be mistaken for a tick bite, including mosquito bites, spider bites, chigger bites, and even allergic reactions. Tick bites often start as small red bumps, which may develop into a bullseye-shaped rash if Lyme disease is transmitted. However, similar-looking rashes can result from conditions like eczema, ringworm, or hives. Without a visible tick, it can be hard to confirm the source, so it’s best to monitor the area for changes and consult a doctor if symptoms like fever, fatigue, or worsening redness occur.
Bed bugs typically will not go away on their own. If there are no humans or animals around, they will need to leave to find a host for feeding. But otherwise, bed bugs can live for several months to a year, and the adult females can lay hundreds more eggs in their lifetime. An infestation is only likely to get worse without hiring an exterminator.
