"Jon answered my text/call very quickly and have an exact time he can squeeze me into the schedule. Heâ s taken care of a few issues, crickets and carpenter ants and the problem has gone away. He keeps up to date with me ensuring his efforts were successful and gives good recommendations for standard pest control throughout the house as he sees fit. Many things of which he pointed out and I did not realize were critter outlets! A+ service and good priced compared to big name companies. You get the customer care and informative exterminator. Call B&m!"

"E&G were very responsive, setting up an appointment shortly after I bought the Big Deal.  They came about a week or two after our initial contact.  The worker who came out was very friendly and explained what the process was, as I accompanied him through my home and area around the foundation.  That day he put a bunch of bait stations inside and outside the house to get any mice that were in the house out of it.  Then two weeks later he came back - I was not home that day - and installed copper mesh material where my siding met the foundation to provide a barrier to keep the varmints from entering the house.
So far, so mice!

"My house is under contract for sale this month and I had to remove several bee hives in the attic crawl space per the buyer's inspection report. I found Paul at Rid-A-Bug on HomeAdvisor today and he called me back within an hour. He said he could come to my house today to get the job done at a very reasonable price compared to other larger pest control companies. Paul arrived at my house on time, cleaned out the bee hives (which was a fairly risky job), and charged me a reasonable rate with a quality guarantee. He was professional, honest, transparent, and timely. I would recommend him to anyone."

"Great customer service. They cleaned my gutters very well and placed everything in garbage bags and left them on my curb to be picked up by my garbage disposal company. They did a great job and I will be calling them again."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Sort of. Hornets are a subsection of wasps with some unique characteristics (along with yellowjackets and similar types of insects). Hornets are generally rare in the United States, with European and Asian hornets the two notable examples.

Hornets tend to be significantly larger than wasps, often larger than one inch. They are also typically white or brown striped instead of yellow like many wasps. They tend to be one of the more aggressive types of wasps, which when combined with their size makes them a priority for homeowners.

Several bugs can look like ticks but aren’t, including beetles, bed bugs, spider beetles, and weevils. Aside from different types of beetles, the most common confusion is between ticks versus bed bugs. In any case, since a tick is an eight-legged arachnid, you can quickly differentiate by the number of legs, as all insects have six legs.

Rats are nocturnal creatures, meaning they are most active at night, typically from late evening through the early morning. They use the cover of darkness to explore, forage for food, and find water, as they feel safer and can avoid daytime predators and human activity. Their sharp senses, including keen night vision and hearing, are well-suited for navigating in the dark. Because they prefer to stay hidden during the day in secluded areas like walls or attics, you are more likely to spot signs of their presence—such as droppings or gnaw marks—before you see an actual rat.

In most cases, a mother bird will return to a disturbed nest after the disturbance has passed. However, it can be hard for a mother bird to find a relocated nest. So, while it’s false that a mother bird will abandon her nest if it’s been disturbed, it’s not a good idea to relocate a nest with live babies or eggs in it.

If you find bed bugs on your mattress, your first step is to put your sheets, pillowcases, pillows, and nearby linens into a trash bag and wash them in hot water. Then, vacuum your mattress and the rest of your bedroom, paying special attention to the mattress seams and crevices near your headboard. Next, use one (or more) of the solutions listed above to kill any live bugs, or call an exterminator for a professional treatment.
