"Matt Keller called me within a couple of hours of my submitting a non-urgent request for a quote on removing a big underground yellow jacket nest in my garden. He booked me for 9am the following day, was on time, used a hornet killer that is non-toxic to pets and humans, and was very kind and respectful. He got rid of the whole nest, his fee was reasonable, and he gives a 30 day warranty on his work. If the little buggers come back wothing a month, so will he. Keller's is amazing, Matt is a good guy, and does excellent work."

"This was an emergency and it was treated like one by Langdon and his team of workers. These gentleman arrived within minutes, after quickly returning my call. My family and I were up all night with a bat flying around and we were very frightened and panicked. (We had never experienced this before.) Paul and Matt arrived and they were quick to remedy the problem! I was very impressed and we were SO relieved!! They explained the type of bat that this was and their behavior during this time of the year. They checked the whole perimeter of the house (inside & out) and pointed out areas of potential problems if not treated/sealed. They were NOT pushy or trying to sell anything. Just being very informative and they answered all of our questions. TOP NOTCH GENTLEMEN! ** LANGDON, PAUL and MATT ** - THANK YOU !!!!!"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Groundhogs have a strong aversion to powerful scents, including garlic, ammonia, vinegar, hot peppers like cayenne, and predator urine. Various herbs such as rosemary, lavender, basil, mint, sage, thyme, and oregano can also act as deterrents. You can strategically use these odors around your property by planting these crops near your garden and by the entrances to groundhog burrows. Commercially available repellents offer another option, and for best results, scent-based deterrents should be used alongside other preventive measures.

It takes a few weeks to get rid of roaches in the kitchen for a small infestation, as the cockroaches will need to take the bait back to their nest to infect the others. For larger infestation, you may need to schedule multiple professional treatments, which could take several weeks or up to 6 months to get rid of the roaches fully.

The time it will take to see results from a professional exterminator can vary depending on the type of treatment and the severity of the infestation. You may notice a reduction of ants within a few days, but it can take weeks to months for the treatment to take full effect and kill the entire colony of ants. Make sure to discuss what results you can expect with your exterminator and any post-infestation cleaning you should do after the treatment.

Flea eggs can’t take heat, so use that information to your advantage. Take any affected clothes and linens and wash them on a hot setting (140℉ or higher) to kill them off. You can also rid carpets and furniture using heat. After vacuuming all surfaces thoroughly, use a steam mop or cleaner to get rid of the remaining flea eggs and residue. 

Flea eggs also can’t handle extreme cold. You could seal affected linens and store them in a freezer. 

Like many pests, fleas hide in dark, sheltered areas, including in the bed. They will seek out crevices in a mattress, so they have easy access to their hosts (you and your pets) as well as somewhere that is warm and hidden. You may also find fleas hiding in carpeting and other furniture.
