"Fighting ants is a losing battle, because they've got 92 million years more survival experience than we do. But Critter Control (our man: Daniel) has been helpful over the years in the continuing effort. The company is reliable, courteous, and professional."

"Before moving to ABQ, I did a bit of research on pests, especially roaches, and regular spraying was part of a solid plan. I had CTL do an initial spray at move-in and now on a regular maintenance schedule moving forward. I haven't seen a one, and I'd like to keep it that way. Pricing is fair, they're professional, and I will continue using CTL for as long as I'm in my home; highly recommend."

"Hadlow Pest control got to my problem so quick and efficiently. I was in a panic of other exterminators telling me they could not come out for a week or more, Hadlow was able to come out same day, removed the nest, and sprayed around my property. When I returned home everything was cleaned up, the nest was gone, and it looked like they had never been there. A joy to work with, and I highly recommend them"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

To determine if you have a rat or mouse infestation, look for several key differences. The most obvious is the size of the rodent: rats are significantly larger with thicker bodies, while mice are much smaller and more slender. You can also identify them by their droppings; rat droppings are larger and rounder, about the size of a raisin, while mouse droppings are smaller, like a grain of rice, and often have pointed ends. Other signs include the sounds they make, as rats produce louder scratching and gnawing noises due to their size. Behaviorally, rats tend to be more cautious, whereas mice are more curious and might be seen more often. Additionally, rat nests are typically larger than those of mice. If you are unable to see the pest or find clear evidence, a professional inspection can provide a definitive identification.

You’re not likely to find water bugs in your house. They may accidentally come in an open door when flying, especially since they are attracted to lights. But water bugs tend to stay stationary in bodies of water. You’re much more likely to see a roach in your home, not a water bug.

Termites are generally more destructive than carpenter ants, which is why it’s important to get rid of termites as quickly as possible. Termites will swarm your home to relentlessly feast on its wood frame, sheetrock, insulation, and carpet down to the studs.

While carpenter ants work surprisingly efficiently, they can still take years to damage your home significantly. It can also take termites several years to fully compromise a home's structure. However, the right colony can take down a full house in about a year. Overall, termites are far more diligent when it comes to destroying structures.

To freeze bed bugs, they’ll need to be exposed to very low temperatures of 0 degrees Fahrenheit or lower for at least 4 days. You can use a remote thermostat to determine when the infested item reaches 0 degrees. Keep in mind that bed bug professionals have the high-quality tools and equipment needed to eradicate bugs using extreme cold, so it’s best to hire a pro for this method.

Since fleas reproduce so quickly, the mere presence of one flea could mean you have an infestation on your hands. Hundreds and even thousands of fleas can lurk in your pet’s fur, carpet, furniture, and even your body. If you see fleas jumping on household items or notice your pet scratching more than usual, those are signs of infestation.
