"As home buyers, we have engaged Accurate Inspections, Inc. to inspect two homes for us (I have reviewed their work separately), and in both cases, they have arranged for E & G Exterminators Inc to conduct wood-destroying insect inspections at the same time (we have paid E & G separately, and it is our understanding that there is no relationship between the companies). While the first exterminator was professional and thorough, the second was neither.

Well into our second home inspection, our home inspector called E & G to confirm that the exterminator was coming. He arrived shortly thereafter, complaining about the number of jobs he had that day and the distance between them. While it was Memorial Day, and we appreciated him being there at all, that does not justify his lack of professionalism (as he pointed out, he was being paid overtime). The exterminator then conducted his inspection but failed to notice some of the evidence of wood-destroying insects that our home inspector had already flagged for us. Fortunately, our home inspector was there to share the additional evidence with the exterminator. Ultimately, the exterminator quoted us over $1,000 for treatment ("a deal"), but he said that before proceeding, the sellers would need to clear their garage so that the exterminator could conduct a more thorough inspection.

We engaged a second exterminator to conduct a follow-up inspection, and he (a) did not charge us for the inspection, (b) completed it without requiring that the sellers clear their garage, (c) quoted us less than $1,000 for treatment, and (d) generally inspired more confidence.

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Both insects can damage wood, but there are key differences between termites and carpenter ants that tell them apart. Carpenter ants tunnel through moist wood, leaving behind smooth tunnels and sawdust-like piles, as they don't eat the wood but rather carve it for nesting. In contrast, termites actually consume wood, creating irregular galleries filled with mud and dirt, and leaving behind mud tubes as their signature. In terms of appearance, carpenter ants have segmented bodies with heart-shaped heads and larger front wings, while termites have more oval bodies with straight antennae and equal-sized wings.

Roaches multiply quickly, which is why an infestation can spread so fast. Female American cockroaches lay about 12 eggs in each egg case, called an ootheca. They can lay six to 14 ootheca during their short lifespan. German cockroaches lay four to five ootheca in their lifetime, with each carrying 20 to 40 eggs. Many roaches can have 100 to over 200 offspring during their lifespan.

It is very difficult to remove a colony entirely without using some kind of insecticide. However, some treatments are safer than others. Diatomaceous earth is a non-toxic powder application that creates barriers that insects can’t pass through. Some pest control companies offer liquid nitrogen treatments to freeze out termites without using pesticides. Some chemical treatments are safer to use around plants, water, and wildlife than others. Bait stations are generally less damaging to the environment than sprayed termiticides.

Roaches have a strong sense of smell and are repelled by a variety of potent aromas. Scents that can help deter them include citrus (such as lemon and orange), herbs like peppermint, mint, basil, thyme, and oregano, spices like bay leaves, cinnamon, clove, and garlic, as well as lavender, eucalyptus, citronella, tea tree oil, and vinegar.

You can use these scents in several ways to create an unwelcoming environment for roaches:

  • Plants: Place mint or lavender plants in your home or garden.

  • Powders and Leaves: Sprinkle garlic powder or place crushed bay leaves and citrus peels in high-risk areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and entry points.

  • Sprays: Create a diluted solution with scents like lemon or vinegar to spray in your home. These can also be used in cleaning products or as room fresheners.

  • Essential Oils: While essential oils of these scents can be used, be cautious as they can be toxic to pets if inhaled.

It is important to note that while these smells can help keep roaches away, they typically do not kill them and may not be enough to drive out an existing infestation entirely. For best results, combine these scent-based deterrents with regular cleaning. Be sure to clean up all food spills, crumbs, and dirty dishes promptly, and keep trash cans covered with a tight-fitting lid to remove potential food sources.

Yes, getting rid of bed bugs without an exterminator is possible. However, it will take significantly longer and more effort than professional extermination. Using a HEPA vacuum, steaming, sealing, and other DIY removal methods work with consistent effort. Plus, it won’t guarantee to clear the entire infestation, so you may need to apply several follow-up treatments.
