"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.

"My review is similar to the other strong reviews. I received a text from Bob the morning after I posted my request for help. Bob arrived at my home promptly, and talked with me about the different options regarding rodent control. His two sons came this morning, and were polite, knowledgeable and did the remediation described by Bob. They closed entry points for rodents and answered all of my questions about the materials they were using.Now I need to wait to determine if the corrective action taken will solve the problem."

"Shawn came out to my house within 24 hours, quickly assessed the wasp infestation in my backyard shed, and treated them on the spot. He returned six days later to check on everything and remove the empty nest, which my family and I greatly appreciated. Shawn’s communications with me via text, phone and email were outstanding throughout the process. I highly recommend Sully’s!"

Pest Control FAQs, answered by experts

Identifying the specific animal running on your roof at night can be challenging without direct observation. Common nocturnal roof visitors include raccoons, squirrels, opossums, and rats. Raccoons are bigger and can create heavy thumping sounds. Squirrels are agile and may produce rapid scurrying noises. Opossums tend to move stealthily with less noise. Rats can make scratching or gnawing sounds. To determine the culprit, look for signs like footprints, droppings, or damaged areas near the roof. For accurate identification, consult a pest control professional or set up wildlife cameras near potential entry points.

When it comes to keeping birds from doing their business on your porch rails, you have several DIY options and home remedies you can try: 

  • Tie a fishing line from one end of the deck post to the other. Birds won’t be able to see the line across the railing, so they can’t land on it.  

  • Hang wind chimes close by, which may scare birds away. 

  • Apply a bird gel repellent to the railings, which contains smells that birds generally don’t like. Or, similarly, you can apply citronella or lemon oil around the railings, since birds don’t like strong smells.

Home warranties typically do not cover pest control services or related damage in their basic plans. However, some companies offer premium plans or limited add-ons that may provide some coverage. These optional coverages often come with limitations, such as dollar caps, maximum payout amounts, or exclusions for specific pests. It is crucial to review the details of your specific home warranty policy to determine if pest control is covered and to understand any associated limitations.

Yes, rats are social creatures that thrive together in packs. If you spot a solitary rat, there are likely more nearby. Their rapid breeding cycle and ability to slip through minute gaps in walls, floors, and foundations contribute to their presence. An infestation generally entails more than eight rats. A nest typically accommodates five to 10 of these rodents. When you spot one, it is crucial to take action. Rats can transmit diseases through urine droppings and even cause renal failure through bites.

Generally, the chemicals in hornet venom deliver a more painful sting than wasp stings. But wasps can still pack a punch when they sting, especially if they sting multiple times. One of the most painful insect stings in the world is that of the tarantula hawk. Fortunately, this sting is usually only an issue if you’re a tarantula.
