"Prompt response! We had tried DIY to eradicate a nest inside the wall on our porch, but had no lasting success. They definitely had the knowledge required to tackle a tough situation. I am happy to say that we are once again able to enjoy our summer porch. Everyone concerned was very courteous and professional."

"Had a great experience working with Ed Hogan! Ed was responsive from the first moment he received notice that I had a woodchuck that needed to be removed. We scheduled a time for him to come to the house, trap was set, and I was instructed to call once the woodchucl was caught. Took a couple day, but we caught the woodchuck! When I telephoned Ed of our success, I left a message which he called back within 5 minutes. He was at my house within the hour to retrieve his trap, woodchuck and accessories. I would highly recommend Ed for any work, if you need to remove an unwanted animal. Lastly, he was resonably priced! Thank you Ed for your expertise and professionalism!"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Roaches may not be quite as common on the top floors of a home, but they can easily climb up there if they want to. Second stories are less likely to have food sources and somewhat less likely to have moisture issues, so most roaches are attracted to bottom levels first. However, humid attics and similar spots can help roaches thrive.

There’s no denying the striking resemblance, but squash bugs are different from the brown marmorated stink bug. While both are shield-shaped and emit a foul odor when crushed, they belong to different insect families and target different plants. Squash bugs primarily attack squash, pumpkins, and other cucurbits, while stink bugs have a much broader range of host plants, including fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants. Their eggs and feeding damage also differ, making proper identification key for effective pest control.

What smell do squash bugs hate?

There’s no easy way to calm down swarming wasps, especially if they are already agitated. Stay far away and wait for them to settle down to avoid injury. If you’re attempting to DIY kill a very small wasp nest, wait until night to apply wasp spray, as they are calmest and most docile when it’s dark.

While you might want to cut corners by either borrowing or purchasing used live traps for catching rats, this can be dangerous because those traps could contain leftover viruses and bacteria that will enter your home. Always start fresh with new materials to avoid contamination.

The best animal repellents for gardens include a variety of different scents. You can use predator urine to keep away deer, raccoons, squirrels, and more. The odor will tell the critters that your yard is a dangerous place. Other scents that repel critters are herbs like lavender, geranium, and mint. You can also use hot pepper, garlic, and strong-smelling soap.
