Little Wolf Wildlife Control LLC is a Pest Control business that specializes in rodent removal and preventative methods. Our team consists of experienced wildlife professionals that work under a Nuisance Wildlife Control Operator license issued directly from the DEC. With that knowledge and over 10 years of experience in the field, Little Wolf Wildlife Control is able to locate exactly how animals are entering your home, and come up with cost effective solutions for removing the animals and preventing them from re-entering.

"I hired this company last October to illuminate mice and squirrels in my basement. In the beginning I thought highly of John and Anthony and thought they corrected the problem but in January the squirrels were back. I called them and their phone number says that the voicemail is full. I wrote to them and asked them to call me. They never contacted me and still haven’t. I keep trying to contact them, but they refused to accept my calls. John told me I would have a guarantee to get rid of them for one year which did not happen. I am totally frustrated that they won’t even have the courtesy to call me back. I would not recommend them at all."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Yes, getting rid of bed bugs without an exterminator is possible. However, it will take significantly longer and more effort than professional extermination. Using a HEPA vacuum, steaming, sealing, and other DIY removal methods work with consistent effort. Plus, it won’t guarantee to clear the entire infestation, so you may need to apply several follow-up treatments.

Yes, dryer sheets can repel mice. Mice are sensitive to smells, and many dryer sheets have strong artificial fragrances like citrus, floral, lavender, vanilla, and woodland. Dryer sheets often continue to release scent for many days; some even last for an entire month, making your home unpleasant for mice. Also, dryer sheets are easy to rub around the house and place in drawers, vents, cupboards, and small holes.

Fruit flies are more common during warm-weather months and may go away on their own in late fall once temperatures drop. However, they can survive year-round indoors as long as there's food available, so you'll likely want to take a proactive approach to get rid of them and stop the spread of bacteria.

Maintain sealed entry points, use deterrents like spikes or sonic devices, and keep areas clean to discourage nesting.

If you’re wondering how to kill bed bugs fast, steam or EPA-approved pesticides are the most effective way to do it. Freezing methods can work, but it can take several days at 0 degrees Fahrenheit or below to eliminate the entire infestation. However, it’s best to hire a professional bed bug exterminator to kill bed bugs instantly.
