"Friendly owner, good service. My only negative is that appointments are not made in advance, they just send an invoice for services performed. They should have you agree to a service date and provide proof of service. Overall happy with a pest free home at a reasonable price."
"Originally found Wildlife Management for help with squirrels. After inspection of our home, found more of a major problem with the wildlife. Our home has 2 separate attics, and they were able to help us out with the cost of cleaning everything up. They were able to help us get the animals out, all cleaned up, and fixed under our homeowners insurance. It has now been over 9 months, and everything has been great with the work, and no new noises in the attic areas. On a side note, they did find issues with the wiring in the attic that we has to have an electrician fix, but Wildlife Management was able to work around the electrician working in a cleaned out space before they put the new insulation in. Great people to work with. Last, this home is a "covid buy" home, and we had to wave not having a home inspection to be able to buy it. Anyone buying a home with out an inspection, is Buyer Beware! Our neighbors had a similar situation, and they highly recommend also!"
"Very knowledgeable guy who seem to know what he’s doing. Don’t know results of spraying. Have had much rain since. Will have to see if it worked. Terminex will spray again the beginning of next month."
"We discovered bees burrowing in our home and found Suburban Pest on Angie's List. They had great reviews so we hired them. They came out the very next day and quite efficiently treated the problem. The service person was polite, knowledgeable and professional. The whole process took less than 30 minutes, and they even gave us a discount for using Angie's List!"
"My experience was incredible, they had great customer service. Very professional and took care of my pest problem in a timely manner. As well as had reasonable prices"
"I had what wound up being a big project, a house built in 1955 on 4 acres with a cinder block foundation and roof ridgeline with many entry points. I called on a Saturday and left a message and one of the principals of the company called me on Sunday to ask me about the problem and make an appointment for one of their people to visit and assess the situation. He came (on time) two days later and spent over an hour crawling over every square inch of the house to see the extent of our infestation and made a recommendation. I called around to a few of the nationally recognized pest control businesses and all they wanted was a credit card number to come out for a visit and put us on a monthly program of traps and visitation that I figured would go on for a lifetime. We hired VerminX. They took three days to complete the work. They had 4-5 people on the job, all courteous and knowledgeable. They taped off the work area 100% and when they left there was no dust anywhere outside the work area. They've been back two times already to check on the traps they left behind and to assure that no more critters were able to get in. If you call and leave a message, they're back to you within no more than an hour or so, even on weekends. I'd highly recommend these folks."
Leaving lights on is not an effective or foolproof method for keeping cockroaches away. While roaches are nocturnal and prefer darkness, light alone is not enough to stop them, especially if they are seeking food, water, or shelter. A bright light might temporarily discourage them, but hungry or determined roaches will often adapt and venture into lit areas. For more effective cockroach control, it is better to focus on proven prevention methods. These include maintaining cleanliness by eliminating food crumbs, sealing cracks and entry points, reducing clutter that provides hiding spots, and fixing any moisture issues. Using traps or repellents can also be part of a comprehensive strategy.
Spraying for mosquitos is better than fogging. A mosquito barrier spray is designed to linger on surfaces and kill mosquitos for up to three weeks, and repeated visits from your pest control pro can keep mosquitos out of your yard all season long. Fogging is a short-term fix that only works for about 72 hours and doesn't kill mosquito larvae or eggs. If you’re concerned about the environment, a natural mosquito repellant may be better than either fogging or spraying.
A rodent infestation often has a distinctive, unpleasant smell. The most common odor is a strong, musky scent, similar to stale ammonia, which comes from mouse urine. As the infestation grows, the smell can become more intense. You might also notice a foul, decomposing odor if mice or rats die inside the walls or hidden areas. This combination of smells is a clear sign of a rodent problem and should prompt immediate action to address the infestation.
Squirrels are pretty skittish creatures, and they dread the presence of rodent-chasing dogs and cats. Sudden noises and bursts of activity can send them scampering away. Anything with an element of surprise, like motion-detecting lighting, strobe lights, and noisy wind chimes, can unsettle them. Even loud radios and voices can be perceived as threatening and terrifying to these furry critters.
Yes, wolves are generally afraid of humans, as well as most large carnivores, such as bears. The risk of a wolf attacking a human or killing them is very low. Biologists hypothesize that this fear was instilled over centuries of humans hunting wolves and the fact that humans have an upright posture like bears that wolves are also afraid of. Like all wildlife, it’s best not to feed wolves and keep them at a distance from yourself and your home.
