"I had several choices for pest control services. L&M was chosen to service my home. L&M responded promptly to my general request for pest control services; an appointment for assessment was made next day which is important as pests in the home can be rather disturbing. Jason was very polite and respectful, thorough in the assessment and inspection of the issues and the recommendations to address the problem (this including more than just spraying the home). In addition, he asked that I call him if I have further questions or concerns."

Additionally, many of the plant oils used are classified as �Generally Recognized As Safe� (GRAS) and/or are approved for food and beverage consumption by the U.S. FDA. \n \n Effective against a broad spectrum of insect pests\n \n EcoSMART�s products provide quick knockdown and control against a wide variety of indoor and outdoor pests.\n \n Attractive fragrances\n \n Because the active ingredient is comprised of plant essential oils, there may be a �floral/botanical� fragrance associated with some of EcoSMART�s products. This fragrance is not harmful and will dissipate after a short period of time.\n\n Customer satisfaction or its free! If we do not provide a service to your level of satisfaction, we will promptly return for free until you are satisfied.

You should never use toxic baits or poisons, such as rodenticides designed for mice and rats, to kill or trap possums. Using these toxicants is illegal in many areas and can lead to fines or other penalties. Furthermore, these poisons can cause unnecessary suffering for the animal and pose a significant risk of accidental poisoning to pets or other neighborhood wildlife. Instead of using poisons, it is best to stick with humane methods like live trapping.
No, poison isn’t the best way to deal with animals in your attic. It’s unlikely to completely eradicate the problem, especially if you don’t take care of access points. Also, poisoned animals may die and decay in the attic, causing noxious odors.
Some animals may leave the attic before the poison kills them, which could lead to nearby pets or other wildlife eating the animals and becoming poisoned themselves. Ultimately, it’s better to avoid using poison and contact a professional instead.
Skunks like to forage for grubs in the soil, like worms and insects, but they are also tempted by trash and pet food bowls, so keeping these items out of sight may help keep skunks away. Skunks also like to set up a den in dark places, such as a crawl space or outbuilding.
Deer rely on scent to tell them what’s safe and unsafe, so effective deer repellents have to be pungent. Make your own natural repellent by combining a beaten egg, one tablespoon of cooking oil, one tablespoon of dish soap, and a half cup of milk. Pour it into a spray bottle and spray around your garden, avoiding anything you will want to eat later. This stinky repellent will ward off any deer that want to make your produce their next meal. But keep in mind that if your windows are nearby, the scent may waft over.
Trapping is generally not recommended, as even gentle traps can become as inhumane as kill traps if a rabbit is caught and stuck for several days. Additionally, capturing one rabbit isn’t likely to prevent other rabbits from wandering your yard. If you choose this method, it's essential to use live traps designed for humane capture and release of the rabbits in a suitable, safe habitat far from your property. Be sure to set a reminder and check the trap at least twice per day.
