• <div><p>According to the <a href="https://icwdm.org/species/rodents/tree-squirrels/tree-squirrel-damage-prevention-and-control-methods/">Internet Center for Wildlife Damage Management</a>, no frightening devices are proven effective for squirrel control.

Q: What eats fleas in my yard?

• <div><p>Ladybugs and nematodes eat fleas outdoors. In fact, ladybugs can eat an average of 50 bugs each hour. If you see them outdoors, avoid causing them harm to help you keep unwanted pests away.</p></div>

Q: Can badgers benefit the environment?

• <div><p>Yes, badgers can benefit the environments they live in. As they dig and feed, they carry and disperse seeds, which helps plants spread and grow. They also build tunnels that other species, like rabbits and foxes, can move into. However, these benefits may not be desirable on your property, and badger removal may be preferable.</p></div>

"It went perfect. When I first called I was looking to have radiant barrier done. They took the time to explain issues they had noticed with radiant barrier and advise to go with blown in insulation even though it was less expensive. They could had just sold me the more expensive radiant barrier and I would have never known about the issues. Nice to know there are still honest contractors out there. They even helped with my CPS rebate. They were on time and when they finished they not only cleaned up but left the area cleaner than it was before they started. Would 100% hire them again."
