"I had what wound up being a big project, a house built in 1955 on 4 acres with a cinder block foundation and roof ridgeline with many entry points. I called on a Saturday and left a message and one of the principals of the company called me on Sunday to ask me about the problem and make an appointment for one of their people to visit and assess the situation. He came (on time) two days later and spent over an hour crawling over every square inch of the house to see the extent of our infestation and made a recommendation. I called around to a few of the nationally recognized pest control businesses and all they wanted was a credit card number to come out for a visit and put us on a monthly program of traps and visitation that I figured would go on for a lifetime. We hired VerminX. They took three days to complete the work. They had 4-5 people on the job, all courteous and knowledgeable. They taped off the work area 100% and when they left there was no dust anywhere outside the work area. They've been back two times already to check on the traps they left behind and to assure that no more critters were able to get in. If you call and leave a message, they're back to you within no more than an hour or so, even on weekends. I'd highly recommend these folks."

"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

Squash bugs don’t bite humans or pets. Their piercing-sucking mouthparts are designed specifically for feeding on plants, not people. While they can be a major nuisance in the garden, they pose no direct physical threat to you, and you don’t need to worry about bites, stings, or venom from these pests.

Yes, bears can smell through walls if they are close enough. Estimates vary, but experts say bears can smell up to a maximum distance between one and 20 miles. Food inside a house does not attract bears to the degree that food left outside does, though.

Stink bugs are herbivores, so they do not bite. Their mouths are designed for feeding on plants. They do not have a stinger either, so the worst part of these pests is the foul odor they emit when they are disturbed. However, you want to avoid allowing an infestation to set in, so you should consider calling an exterminator if you are struggling to get rid of them.

A spider infestation happens when an unusually high and problematic presence of spiders occurs in a home to the point it becomes disruptive or poses a significant nuisance. If you notice an increase in spider sightings, numerous webs throughout the home, or see multiple spiders daily, it's likely you have an infestation. In cases where the types of spiders seen are venomous or medically significant species are present, the number of spiders is insignificant and would require pest control measures. On average, pest control costs between $300 to $550 for one-time service.

Both spikes and loose nets can be installed over nest sites to prevent the bird from returning, but nets are not a humane option since birds and other wildlife can get tangled in them. 

Spikes are a humane alternative that deter nesting without harming the birds. In small areas, like vents, a very fine mesh net can be installed to prevent the bird from returning. These nets don't generally pose a risk to the birds.
