"I received quotes from other wildlife companies who wanted to charge me $5000 plus to remove bats from my attic. I was told I had a â bat problem.â I had Matt and Brian stop by from VerminX to get a third quote. Both were super knowledgeable and took their time to check every nook and cranny in the house before giving their assessment. Contrary to these other wildlife companies, they advised me I do not have a bat problem, explained why and quoted me $1400 to bat proof my attic / residence. It was a breath of fresh air to have someone with integrity to actually assess the problem and not use a â fear factorâ technique by telling me I have a large bat problem when there were just a couple stray bats that managed to work their way into my house. If you donâ t want to be scammed into spending thousands of dollars when you may not have to, I highly recommend giving this company a call to give you a knowledgeable and honest assessment of the problem."

"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 !!!!!"

"Floyd replied promptly to our service request. After a couple planning days, Floyd came in, did a good job identifying and starting the process to remove our unwanted guests(a mice family). Cost was about what is customary for the service, Job and clean up was well, done. Hopefully the pests accept there is no more room at the inn this holiday season."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

It’s highly unlikely that fleas will pack up and leave your home on their own. Fleas reproduce frequently and by the dozens, so an infestation can grow and spread rapidly, increasing the need for professional extermination. That’s why it’s important to address a flea issue in your home as soon as you identify it. Hire a professional flea exterminator to clear your home of these tiny pests.

Yes, predator decoys work to keep birds away, at least temporarily. However, if the decoy remains motionless in the same spot for a long enough time, the birds will eventually wise up and realize it's a fake. Keep changing the location of the predator decoy to ensure that the birds keep their guard up and maintain their distance.

Vinegar can be an insect repellant, as many bugs find its scent off-putting. However, vinegar is acidic and may also cause damage to any plants it comes in contact with. If you'd like to use vinegar to deter pests in your garden, be careful not to spray it directly on the plant's leaves or stems.

It's also worth noting that vinegar's effects can be short. To continue to repel bugs, you'll need to spray vinegar repeatedly. 

If you’re dealing with a bee colony on your property, you might wonder if they’ll leave naturally over time. The answer depends on their circumstances. Bees often relocate if the hive becomes overcrowded, food is scarce, or they face a threat. With that said, if a hive’s location is safe, warm, and with plentiful food sources, they are unlikely to relocate on their own, and the hive may persist for many generations.

Some suggest mothballs as a deterrent for iguanas, but they are ineffective and harmful. Mothballs contain chemicals like naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene, which are toxic to humans and animals, including iguanas. The fumes can cause respiratory problems, skin irritation, and other health issues. Moreover, using mothballs outdoors is not recommended, as they contaminate soil and water sources.
