"I recently discovered yellow jackets inside my hose and found Exterminex Pest Control in my research of companies. They were very quick to respond to my questions and I saw the large number of excellent reviews, so I set up an appointment. When I set the appointment, I was told that if I received any quotes that beat theirs, to let them know. I was shocked, but it shows that they stand by their work and want to work with you. I actually received two other quotes that were less and they were more than happy to work with. Their work was fantastic, their communication was prompt and professional. They stand behind their services and have a great business practice. You cannot go wrong with them; I am glad I looked them up and worked with them"

"I’m writing this review about John Gumbus, a supervisor in the termite division of Suburban Exterminating because it’s important for Suburban customers and future customers to know what a truly dedicated, conscientious and knowledgeable professional he is. About a week ago I was having a bathroom painted when the painter showed me a large opening that he made in the wall because it felt damp. He said we had termites in the wood that was exposed. It was late in the day and after business hours so I contacted the area supervisor for pest control, Bill Zecca and asked if he new anyone who could help me at this hour. He gave me John’s contact information. I called John and told him I got to him from Bill. He said he was on vacation and before I could apologize for disturbing him he asked me to give him details of why I believed I had termites. He asked me a few questions and then explained why he didn’t think I had them. He then said to send him pictures to his Suburban email. He said he was out with his wife and would be home late, but he would call me. He called later that evening and said he had good news that we didn’t have termites, it was mold. He then went into a detailed explanation of how termites present themselves. He told me what the painter should do regarding the mold. He then said he had reviewed my account and said I should take advantage of the yearly termite inspection I’m entitled to as a Suburban customer. I took his advice and had Cesar, one of their experienced inspectors, do the inspection of my entire home. It was good news again, no termites. I have to reiterate, John Gumbus did all of this on his vacation and I truly appreciate his work ethic where he helped me, a Suburban customer that he did not personally know. Thank you, John."

"Iâ ve been using Alternative Earthcare for tick and mosquito control for several years now. I have woods in my yard and could never take my grandchildren outside during the day without being attacked by mosquitoes. Now we can be outside without seeing one insect. Andy and staff have been great to work with. Highly recommend"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Scent deterrents like ammonia, vinegar, mothballs, and pepper can help keep coyotes away, but these are best used in tandem with other preventative measures. Remember that ammonia and vinegar can kill your plants and/or grass, so it’s best to soak rags in these substances or spray them on hardscaped areas to avoid damaging your landscape.

Yes, you can get rid of wolves naturally using nonlethal deterrents, like motion-activated lighting or loud music. You can also get rid of wolves with the same methods that apply to keeping other wildlife away—strong and tall fencing, a guard dog, and a clean property free from potential food sources. 

Stink bugs hate strong, fragrant scents like clove, lemongrass, spearmint, and Ylang Ylang, so you can use essential oils as a natural deterrent. (Always keep them out of reach of your pets!) In the garden, plants like lavender, garlic, and catnip can ward off stink bugs thanks to their pungent aroma. Also, avoid decorating with white, as stink bugs are oddly attracted to it.

Don’t count on squirrels leaving on their own. Squirrels like the safety that a cozy attic provides and won’t be in a hurry to leave, especially if they’ve recently given birth to a litter. It’s best to address the situation with DIY removal tactics or hire a squirrel removal pro as soon as you suspect squirrels are living in your attic.

To clean a trash can with maggots, combine chlorine bleach and hot water in a 1-to-1 ratio and pour about half a gallon of the solution into the bottom of your garbage can. Just make sure there aren’t holes in the can before doing so. Close the lid, and let the fumes go to work to kill the maggots. Rinse the can with a hose outside. Consider finishing up with a bleach disinfectant and a scrub brush before letting the can dry completely. You can also consider hiring an exterminator near you for a quick, easy solution to maggots in your garbage cans.
