"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.

"The problem I have is with moles. Cowley's seems very knowledgeable in the treatment of moles -- uUnfortunately, the way to eliminate them takes time. It seems the activity has lessened -- but only time will tell. Terminix sent me an email stating they "Don't do moles" -- so I wonder why you included them on your list. Critter Control never contacted me -- so I also wonder why you included them."

Bird Control FAQs, answered by experts

There are DIY methods and store-bought pesticides available for the public to use. However, these pesticides also come with a risk, and you need to follow the directions correctly and take precautionary measures to prevent exposure to these chemicals. These methods may be an option for small pest problems, but you should call in a pest control specialist for persistent pests and infestations.

They can have a deterrent effect on birds to some extent. The reflective surfaces of these objects, such as aluminum foil strips, CDs, or reflective tape, create flashes of light and movement that can startle or confuse birds temporarily. However, some birds can become accustomed to these visual disturbances over time and might adapt their behavior accordingly. For a more sustained solution, combining shiny objects with other deterrent methods shared here is often beneficial for creating a more comprehensive and effective strategy for bird control.

Look for goose repellents that contain the ingredient methyl anthranilate. This is a natural chemical found in grape juice. In human food, it’s often used as grape flavoring. With geese, it’s highly irritating. Grape Kool-Aid contains methyl anthranilate, the active ingredient in most bird repellents. It won’t harm geese, but it will deter them.

No, mothballs do not keep bats away. Not only are mothballs completely ineffective when repelling or removing bats, but using them could be illegal, depending on where you live. Remember, bats are federally protected, and it's illegal to use chemicals during the removal process, and mothballs tend to fall into this category.

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.
