"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!

Droppings from cockroaches, squirrels, mice, bats, and birds can resemble rat poop, making it easy to confuse one for another. Mouse droppings are smaller and more pointed, cockroach droppings resemble tiny black specks or ground pepper, and bat guano can look similar but usually crumbles into powder. Bird droppings sometimes have a similar shape, but often include white uric acid deposits. If in doubt, it’s best to consult a pest control professional for proper identification and removal.
In addition to a clean home, fleas dislike oils made from plants that are naturally bug-resistant or poisonous to bugs. That includes myrtle, mint, eucalyptus, and especially cedar oil. Common household remedies like baking soda, garlic and apple vinegar don’t have any effect on fleas. Don’t spray essential oils directly on your own skin or your pets (and their bedding, because it can be a skin irritant. Stay away from tea tree oil. In pure form it can be very toxic to pets. Always ask your vet if you have any questions.
Although it would make things easier for you, animals won’t likely leave the attic on their own. Unless the animal finds seasonal respite in your attic, it’s likely to stay in a protected space as long as it is allowed. Get rid of animals in your attic by calling the appropriate wildlife removal professionals so they can safely and efficiently remove the critters from your home, being careful to avoid further damage to your home.
The right snake trap depends on your needs and the species of snake. Glue traps are the easiest to handle but are inhumane and may catch and kill other animals, like squirrels, birds, and mice. Cage traps catch snakes alive so they can be released elsewhere. Minnow traps are the best choice for water snakes.
As a general rule, if you hear an animal in your attic, don’t assume it will stay there. Animals are drawn to warmth and food sources, which could lead them to other parts of your house. In particular, it’s likely that small pests such as rats and mice that only need tiny gaps to squeeze through will end up in your walls and ductwork. Larger animals like raccoons may be limited to an enclosed attic.
