"I got to meet one of the owners Todd, and he was great at explaining everything carefully and ensuring that the bugs at our house were all exterminated. I am only giving 4.5 stars for now because the job is not finished, but he really cares about the treatment and gave us a 90 day plan to make sure that we would no longer have a cockroach infestation. We also have a small puppy, so he made sure to explain to us that the stuff he used was safe. Overall, I really had a great experience with Gotham Pest Control!"

"Absolutely top notch service you will receive from Inspect Pest Control everytime. The technician Justin is a true professional and extremely knowledgeable in the pest control field. I had a queen bee trying to nest in my house and Justin took care of it with ease. A queen bee selfie was captured see photo. Justin not only addressed the bee problem from today but also eliminated the ants and mice issues I had from a previou visit as well. I highly recommend Jusin and Inspect Pest Control for any pest issues you have. They consistently deliver top quality customer service and product to address your pest problem. Thanks again!"

"Highly recommend Prestige Pest Services LLC. Filled out a form online for an evaluation or some advice for my situation and I listed it as an emergency at 3am and less than five minutes later they called to follow up with me on what's going. I was so surprised they really took my situation seriously and called right away! Came by next morning and gave me so much advice and really helped me with this situation. I wouldn't recommend anyone else but this company in this field/category."

"I had a very positive experience with Heritage Pest Control, Inc. Jose, the inspector, arrived on time and was very thorough, informative, knowledgeable, and professional throughout the entire termite inspection process. He explained step by step what to expect, and the price was reasonable. From the initial contact to the follow-up inspection, the entire process was handled professionally. Chuck, the owner, was especially friendly and immediately understood the specific form I needed completed. I highly recommend this company. It is clear they have been in business for a long time and truly care about their customers. They made us feel like family."

"Great company! Even though they are located on the East Coast, they have excellent control over their local professionals. EXAMPLE: I requested a cleaning of my siding (along with my windows) and paid a deposit. On arrival, the professionals realized that their product was incompatible with my cedar siding. They credited this to my account and the other orders I placed. I’ve been using them for years and have no reservations about recommending them to others."

"Eric was great! He replied promptly and was able to schedule the wasp removal the next day. He arrived when he said he would and called ahead to let us know he was on his way. The wasp issue has been taken care of and he guarantees his work for 90 days as well. Will definitely use Eric again for pest control needs."

Pest Control FAQs, answered by experts

If you’re wondering whether bug candles can keep flies away, the answer is yes (and this goes for fruit flies and many other types of flies. However, most bug candles contain citronella, which isn’t suitable for indoor use. This is because the fumes are strong and can leave a strong scent on walls and objects.

No, skunks are not considered aggressive and are typically very gentle, mild-mannered creatures. However, when they’re provoked, they do emit their potent spray as a defense mechanism. Skunks are also useful creatures to have near your property since they eat insects and will likely leave you and your pets alone unless they’re startled.

DIY treatments exist, but professional extermination is recommended for thorough elimination and prevention.

Yes, termites in your yard can be something to be concerned about, especially if they’re close to your home. While not all outdoor colonies pose an immediate threat, termites can move from wood piles, tree stumps, or mulch, eventually making their way to your home’s structure. If you see mud tubes, damaged wood, or swarming activity, it’s a good idea to schedule a professional termite inspection to prevent potential infestation.

Consumer-brand foggers or bug bombs are considered safe overall. Still, it's essential to read the instructions carefully as the vacating time varies depending on the type of bug bomb you use. Most of the time, it's advised that all humans and pets are out of the area for at least two to four hours after initiating the fogger process. It's also a good idea to vent the space by cracking open some windows for several hours after you're back inside.
