"Both Rick, (the first tech) and Jose, (the second tech) came on different days, (2 weeks apart) to survey, bait, inspect and plug up holes. The bait that Rick laid out would make the rodents sick and die after two days (outside of my house) so they wouldn't perish inside my walls or pipes to smell.  
Two weeks later, Jose came by, inspected the baits traps for any disturbances, (which there were not).  We only had one rodent per year.  But that was enough for us.  -LOL!  Then, he plugged up all the exterior holes with a very coarse steel wool material which would severely hurt any potential subsequent rodents should they try to gain access.  
Both technicians were courteous, patient with our questions, educated us on rodent activity, and Heritage Pest Control practices. We were very happy with their service!

"I?m based in Montclair and had a really good experience with Inspect Pest Control. They were a huge help with both carpenter ants and termites, which had been stressing me out for a while. From the first visit, they were professional but also very easy to talk to. They explained what was going on in plain language and didn?t make it feel overwhelming. What I appreciated most was the communication?they actually kept me in the loop and followed up, which you don?t always get with companies like this. Overall, they made a tough situation a lot easier to deal with, and the results speak for themselves. I?d definitely recommend Inspect Pest Control if you?re dealing with pest issues."

"We had a mouse in our garage. Vinny was not only quick to respond, he was very knowledgeable, and within one day the mouse was caught. Vinny came back to check the traps and offered to come back again once we had the garage cleaned out to set new traps. Vinny gave us some good ideas about how to rodent proof our garage. He was very accessible via phone. We would highly recommend this company to anyone who had an issue with pests."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Yes, bats can cause quite a bit of damage to the attic. Their weight and movement from flying around can damage insulation, and they can chew through wiring and the walls. As if this isn’t enough, they leave their droppings throughout, which carry harmful bacteria and is dangerous for humans to breathe in, not to mention the extremely foul-smelling odor.

Yes, dryer sheets can help repel mice. The strong artificial fragrances found in many dryer sheets, such as citrus, floral, or lavender, are unpleasant to mice, which are very sensitive to smells. Many people report success using them to deter mice from areas like cars, drawers, vents, and cupboards. The scent can last for many days, making the space undesirable for rodents. However, dryer sheets may not be a foolproof solution on their own. For more effective protection against rodent infestations, it is best to combine them with other preventive measures like traps, repellent sprays, and proper storage practices.

Yes, badgers are aggressive mammals, which is why it’s important to safely remove them from your home or garden area as soon as possible. Keep in mind though, badgers rarely attack pets or people, but their sharp claws and even sharper teeth can make them dangerous if they feel threatened.

Rats are attracted to homes that provide food, water, and shelter. Common attractants include uncovered garbage, pet food left out overnight, crumbs and food spills, and easily accessible pantries. They’re also lured in by leaky pipes, standing water, and cluttered areas like basements or garages. Outdoor factors such as overgrown vegetation or woodpiles near the foundation can create additional nesting opportunities.

Badgers have a strong sense of smell, so it’s possible you can deter them with strong scents, such as applying citronella oil to the bottom of your fence, adding crushed scotch bonnet peppers sprinkled throughout your garden, or mixing both of these into a solution to spray around your home and garden.
