"Jai and his team at J&L Pest Control exceeded our expectations on every level! They are extremely knowledgeable, professional and customer service orientated. They not only 100% solved our nightmare pigeon infestation issue all over the facade and entrance of our building but they did it in very tasteful discreet manner that was also cost effective. Jai was very thorough during the consultation and provided our coop with the most comprehensive proposal and best warranties (on work and materials) better than 3 other companies we consulted with. Their work and professionalism before, during and after the installation are exemplary. I continue to recommend them to our block association, friends and neighbors for any type of pest control and prevention."

"Suburban was honest and told me the tubes belonged to some kind of bee. They easily could have hooked me into one of their termite contracts that I didn't need. I did renew my carpenter ant contract with them even though they seem to have completely eliminated that problem at my house a couple of years ago. These guys are top notch."

"Iâ ve been using Alternative Earthcare for tick and mosquito control for several years now. I have woods in my yard and could never take my grandchildren outside during the day without being attacked by mosquitoes. Now we can be outside without seeing one insect. Andy and staff have been great to work with. Highly recommend"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

If you’re heading outdoors, wear long sleeves and pants to minimize skin exposure. You may also want to wear clothing and any additional gear, like backpacks or tents, treated with 0.5% permethrin. If you’re dealing with fleas at home, you may want to wear insect repellant and vacuum your bed, carpets, and upholstery frequently to minimize fleas.

If there is food sources and other places to build a nest, wasps may come back after their nest is gone. However, if you take measures to repel wasps, like planting pest-repellent plants or sealing cracks and gaps around the outside of your home, they aren’t likely to return. Be diligent at checking for new nests each spring to get rid of them as soon as possible and prevent bigger swarms of wasps in your yard.

Roaches have a strong sense of smell and are repelled by a variety of potent aromas. Scents that can help deter them include citrus (such as lemon and orange), herbs like peppermint, mint, basil, thyme, and oregano, spices like bay leaves, cinnamon, clove, and garlic, as well as lavender, eucalyptus, citronella, tea tree oil, and vinegar.

You can use these scents in several ways to create an unwelcoming environment for roaches:

  • Plants: Place mint or lavender plants in your home or garden.

  • Powders and Leaves: Sprinkle garlic powder or place crushed bay leaves and citrus peels in high-risk areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and entry points.

  • Sprays: Create a diluted solution with scents like lemon or vinegar to spray in your home. These can also be used in cleaning products or as room fresheners.

  • Essential Oils: While essential oils of these scents can be used, be cautious as they can be toxic to pets if inhaled.

It is important to note that while these smells can help keep roaches away, they typically do not kill them and may not be enough to drive out an existing infestation entirely. For best results, combine these scent-based deterrents with regular cleaning. Be sure to clean up all food spills, crumbs, and dirty dishes promptly, and keep trash cans covered with a tight-fitting lid to remove potential food sources.

A strong honeybee colony can usually fight off the aggressive presence of yellow jackets. However, weaker honeybee colonies with fewer workers are especially vulnerable to yellow jackets. If yellow jackets gain entry into a weakened honeybee colony, they can easily kill the honeybees and empty the hive of all its contents. 

Consumer-brand foggers or bug bombs are considered safe overall. Still, it's essential to read the instructions carefully as the vacating time varies depending on the type of bug bomb you use. Most of the time, it's advised that all humans and pets are out of the area for at least two to four hours after initiating the fogger process. It's also a good idea to vent the space by cracking open some windows for several hours after you're back inside.
