"Had a great experience with Gernatt Pest Solutions! Ben came out quickly and took care of a wasp and ant problem we were dealing with. Super professional, friendly, and thorough ? we haven?t had any issues since. Highly recommend if you're looking for reliable pest control!"
"We seemed to get a bat in the house once a year, but we recently had 4 bats in the house in about a year. Brian Wulf concluded they were hibernating in my attic. The project started as the coronavirus pandemic began and that delayed things, but he installed excluders (one-way doors) and came back in September to remove them and seal up the openings. I haven't seen or heard a bat since his first visit and we can now sleep soundly again ... except for the dogs in our bed."
"Still in the process of getting rid of the possums and possible raccoons. However, my overall experience is GREAT! The staff is very knowledgeable and answered each of my questions without hesitation. Certainly would call them again if needed. I've already recommended them to other family members. Thank you Wildlife Management!"

"Suburban Pest Control was able to make it the same day before the long holiday weekend. The technician was prompt and professional. He did a thorough job. However, after 5 days, some yellow jackets were still visiting the hive. I contacted Suburban Pest Control and they were able to apply a second treatment later that week. All of the Yellow Jackets are now gone! Suburban Pest Control, both on the phone and at the house, were extremely pleasant, knowledgeable and professional. I would highly recommend them."
When you spray a roach, the chemicals, usually a mix of neurotoxins like pyrethroids or pyrethrins, start affecting its nervous system almost immediately. It disrupts the roach’s nerve signals, causing paralysis and eventually death. You'll often see the roach twitch, flip over on its back, and stop moving within seconds to minutes.
While there are many types of wood-eating pests, the most common one in the United States is termites. They are found in every state and are typically worse in warm and humid climates. They cause billions of dollars in damage every year, which is why it’s vital that homeowners address infestations as soon as possible.
This depends on if their needs are being met. They'll likely return night after night if they have access to food, water, and adequate shelter. If this changes, they’ll look for another roosting spot. This is why bright lights and other dissuading factors often work when removing bats from a property.
Common house roaches, typically American cockroaches or Periplaneta americana, usually live for around one year. The male American cockroaches survive for about one year, although the females may live up to 700 days. That’s because the reproductive cycle alone can last around 600 days for this type of cockroach.
Bed bugs bite your body to feed on blood. When they bite, they inject an anticoagulant, which is why you may see blood stains on your sheets if you have an infestation. The bed bugs tend to bite in clusters, so the bite marks will look like itchy, red spots in zigzagging lines of three to five bites per cluster on your skin.
The bites are itchy, but for most people, they do not cause serious or long-term health complications. Itching the wound excessively could lead to an infection, and some people are allergic to bed bugs.
