"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!"

"The termite treatment gentleman, John, and the crew were very courteous and helpful in answering questions. They were very thorough with their inspections before and after. I don't think I would have gotten the same kind of services if I had gone to a big pest control house."

"I have had a great experience with Prestige Pest Services, I have used them for almost a year and will renew for another year. I use them for their quarterly pest management. They contact me every quarter to schedule the appointment. Their technician, Saul is always on time, very professional and thorough. He takes his time inspecting for pests, laying down different traps and baits and helps protect the interior and exterior with (safe) pesticides. I definitely recommend their services."

"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."

"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 questions, answered by experts

While there are many types of wood-eating pests, the most common one in the United States is termites. They are found in every state and are typically worse in warm and humid climates. They cause billions of dollars in damage every year, which is why it’s vital that homeowners address infestations as soon as possible.

Legal considerations include adherence to local and federal wildlife protection laws, particularly for species that might be protected or endangered.

If the snakes in your yard are non-venomous species (like common Rat or Garter snakes), why not consider the live-and-let-live approach? Some benefits of not getting rid of snakes include:

  • They’re great at controlling disease-spreading rodent populations, including rats, mice, voles, and moles.

  • Some non-venomous species (like the common kingsnake) eat venomous species like rattlesnakes and copperheads.

  • Species like the garter snake keep down populations of garden pests like slugs and grasshoppers.

Heat is the most effective instant killer of bed bugs. Exposing them to temperatures above 131 degrees Fahrenheit for over an hour can eliminate them. Methods like steam cleaners and using a dryer on high heat are effective for this. Other options that can kill bed bugs on contact include EPA-approved pesticides, bleach, disinfectant sprays with alcohol, diatomaceous earth, and hydrogen peroxide. While freezing can work, it is not an instant solution, as it can take several days at 0 degrees Fahrenheit to be effective. Keep in mind that many DIY treatments won't reach bed bugs hidden in cracks or behind walls. For severe infestations or the most effective results, it is best to hire a professional exterminator for a professional heat or chemical treatment.

Yes, it’s actually common to see more cockroaches after you spray. It might seem like things are getting worse, but that’s usually a sign the treatment is working. Roach sprays and baits can flush them out of their hiding spots as they try to escape the chemicals. You might notice them acting strangely—slower, twitching, or out during the day when they’re usually hiding.
