"Anchor Pest Control and Lewis in particular have been extremely professional and helpful. Was looking for a regular pest control contract and reached out to several companies. Anchor pest control stood out in their clear responses, and treatment schedule and speed as well cost. Lewis was very professional and always prompt in returning any calls/questions I had. Would definitely recommend them."

"As a real estate agent, I recently worked with Frank Vargas from Bright Environmental on a time-sensitive situation involving a tenant complaint that escalated to a HUD inspection. One of the key issues was a reported roach problem that needed immediate attention. Frank was incredibly professional from start to finish. He understood the urgency and sensitivity of the situation right away and took swift, decisive action. What really stood out was his responsiveness—he assessed and addressed the issue in less than 24 hours, which is critical when dealing with compliance-related matters. He communicated clearly, showed up on time, and handled everything with a high level of professionalism. In situations like this, having someone reliable and knowledgeable makes all the difference, and Frank delivered. I would highly recommend Frank and Bright Environmental to anyone in need of prompt, effective, and professional pest control services—especially in high-pressure situations."

Pest Control FAQs, answered by experts

Look for goose repellents that contain the ingredient methyl anthranilate. This is a natural chemical found in grape juice. In human food, it’s often used as grape flavoring. With geese, it’s highly irritating. Grape Kool-Aid contains methyl anthranilate, the active ingredient in most bird repellents. It won’t harm geese, but it will deter them.

While it may cost more to hire an exterminator than trying to treat the problem yourself, a professional is worth hiring if you have a major infestation. If the problem is severe and the ants are causing damage to your home, then DIY methods may not be as effective as a professional treatment. Plus, if you have carpenter or fire ants it’s best not to risk the damage they can cause to your home.

Termites are most active and cause the most damage in the spring and summer, when warm temperatures and increased moisture accelerate their activity. This is also when swarming typically occurs, allowing colonies to expand. However, termites remain active year-round, especially in warmer climates or heated homes. An established colony can continue to damage wood 365 days a year, even during cold weather.

Yes, many services include cleanup and sanitization to remove droppings and odors. Confirm with your provider.

Vinegar can keep some animals at bay, like deer, rabbits, foxes, and raccoons. Keep in mind that your household pets, like cats and dogs, also don’t like the smell of vinegar. You can soak rags in white vinegar and put them up around your garden beds to keep the pesky critters from eating your plants.
