"Fast friendly knowledgeable complete pest control in one day. Thanks, guys! The wasps and the rest of the bugs appear to have moved out. We are free to live here again without bites stings and mystery buzzing in our ears especially when sitting on the back deck. Nice not have to get up and run or spill my coffee trying to get away from whatever crawling flying insect that decided to invade my life. Can not forget Bennett!!. He is the reason we followed through with this company. Thank you, Bennett and Jerome."

"I had a momma raccoon and 4 kits in my attic. Ed did the work. He gave me same day service. Within 10 seconds of inspecting outside of my home he found mommas access location inside my attic. Momma and 3 kits have been removed and are on their way in Edâ s truck to a good outside home in the wild. Ed also installed metal screens to the vents on the north and south side of my house just below the peak of my roof. He also repaired the slats on each vent. We figure early April momma climbed up a downspout of my rain gutter, then climbed the roof to the peak and entered through the vent by pushing through the slats. She delivered her kits up there 6-7 weeks ago. I knew of none of this until several days ago when I heard movement in the attic. The 4th kit escaped Ed. My attic has flooring you can walk on only at the top of the stairs thst pull down. 90% of my attic is very thin material that canâ t support a person walking on it and has a very deep application of blown insulation on it. The 4th kit is hiding in there somewhere. Ed left momma and the 3 captured kits in a cage at the top of the stairs overnight hoping the 4 th kit would come hang out there and he could capture it. No such luck, itâ s still hiding in a sea of insulation. Ed has packed up and left, I paid him in full. If I hear the kit moving in the next few days Iâ m to call Ed and heâ ll come back. If not within a week or so it will expire. Ed is a good man, very professional and absolutely knows critters and how to rid your house of them. His price was considerably less than Iâ d have paid a company. Lastly - my girlfriend does not trust strangers. She became comfortable with Ed. That is high praise."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

When woodpeckers start banging on your walls or roof, they are probably looking for insects to eat, storing nuts for winter, drilling a hole to make a nest, or communicating with other birds to establish territory or find a mate.

The size of the hole can help determine the reason for the pecking. Small irregular holes are a result of insect hunts. Acorn holes are more consistently sized and often fitted with a nut in the middle. Nest holes are large and have rounded edges. If the bird is pecking to mark its territory or attract a mate, it may leave dents rather than holes, and the noise will stop when the mating season starts in spring.

A raccoon may be hanging around your house for convenient access to food, water, or shelter. They may drink water out of puddles, pools, ponds, fountains, or your pet’s water bowls. Raccoons are also known to eat just about anything, including food from gardens and waste from unsecured trash cans.

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.

Voles are pretty prolific breeders, managing to squeeze in 5 to 10 litters a year, and each litter usually has around 3 to 5 little ones. These furry creatures are flexible with their love lives, as they can breed all year round, though spring and summer are their prime times. If they're living it up in warmer areas, voles don't take a break and keep reproducing non-stop.

Keep flies out of your house by keeping the windows or doors closed, especially when cooking. You can also install window screens to prevent pests from entering your home while allowing a cool breeze to enter your home.
