"Due to the pandemic only outside pest control was carried out. Carpenter ants, spiders and such were addressed. I have a yearly plan. I have had their fabulous service for at least 6 years. This is the first time they didn’t treat indoor space but in the past they could be very thorough using essential oils that had a pleasant smell that dissipates and does the job extremely well. It is safe for humans and pets alike. Their service people from arranging an appointment to the professional who does the actual service are excellent."
"An exterminator came within a couple of days of my phone call. He was on time and very nice. He came for the follow-up visit as scheduled. This company did a better job of controlling the ant infestation we've been troubled by for years than any other company we've used."

"Our home has been apparently favored by woodpeckers. We noticed 3 holes in the stucco and and some birds activities. But then a woodpecker fell through the chimney into our family room. We caught it and let it go, then called Kyle for help. Kyle responded immediately, scheduled an appointment for the next morning and arrived on time with his helper. The two of them soon uncovered the extent of the damages: 9 holes + nests under the roof + in one case the birds removed and bent a piece of metal holding the roof and built nests under it + they removed the chimney cap to get into the chimney and remove the insulation to build the nest... In short, substantial spread damages. To add complexity, our house is on the tall side and most of the holes were right under the roof requiring very tall ladders... Kyle and his helper went to work. I was amazed by their work. All the holes are covered, the roof and chimney are fixed. The birds tried to return, but gave up on digging through the new stucco covering their holes. We thought the charge of $450, for several hours of two persons work, was on the low side and added $50. Thank you Kyle for the terrific work. "
When woodpeckers start banging on your walls or roof, they are probably looking for insects to eat, storing nuts for winter, drilling a hole to make a nest, or communicating with other birds to establish territory or find a mate.
The size of the hole can help determine the reason for the pecking. Small irregular holes are a result of insect hunts. Acorn holes are more consistently sized and often fitted with a nut in the middle. Nest holes are large and have rounded edges. If the bird is pecking to mark its territory or attract a mate, it may leave dents rather than holes, and the noise will stop when the mating season starts in spring.
Cockroaches, ants, flies, bed bugs, and termites are common in business environments.
Many different types of animals like to build nests in attics. The types may vary depending on your home’s condition and location and you can prevent them by sealing off entry points and eliminating food sources.
The most common critters that like to build nests in your attic include:
Raccoons
Bats
Squirrels
Mice
Rats
To keep animals out, you must prevent them from entering. As long as they can get in, the problem will persist. That said, consider making your attic less inviting using deterrents like motion-activated lights or ultrasonic devices. Additionally, keeping a well-maintained, clean, and uncluttered attic that you regularly inspect for activity may make the space less attractive to critters.
Natural swimming pools are designed to deter pests, including mosquitoes. While any body of water can potentially attract pests, the natural filtration system keeps the water clean and constantly moving. Mosquitoes specifically are attracted to standing water, so the continuously circulating water in a natural pool makes it an inhospitable environment for them.
