"I had a momma raccoon and 4 kits in my attic. Ed did the work. He gave me same day service. Within 10 seconds of inspecting outside of my home he found mommas access location inside my attic. Momma and 3 kits have been removed and are on their way in Edâ s truck to a good outside home in the wild. Ed also installed metal screens to the vents on the north and south side of my house just below the peak of my roof. He also repaired the slats on each vent. We figure early April momma climbed up a downspout of my rain gutter, then climbed the roof to the peak and entered through the vent by pushing through the slats. She delivered her kits up there 6-7 weeks ago. I knew of none of this until several days ago when I heard movement in the attic. The 4th kit escaped Ed. My attic has flooring you can walk on only at the top of the stairs thst pull down. 90% of my attic is very thin material that canâ t support a person walking on it and has a very deep application of blown insulation on it. The 4th kit is hiding in there somewhere. Ed left momma and the 3 captured kits in a cage at the top of the stairs overnight hoping the 4 th kit would come hang out there and he could capture it. No such luck, itâ s still hiding in a sea of insulation. Ed has packed up and left, I paid him in full. If I hear the kit moving in the next few days Iâ m to call Ed and heâ ll come back. If not within a week or so it will expire. Ed is a good man, very professional and absolutely knows critters and how to rid your house of them. His price was considerably less than Iâ d have paid a company. Lastly - my girlfriend does not trust strangers. She became comfortable with Ed. That is high praise."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

It is very difficult to remove a colony entirely without using some kind of insecticide. However, some treatments are safer than others. Diatomaceous earth is a non-toxic powder application that creates barriers that insects can’t pass through. Some pest control companies offer liquid nitrogen treatments to freeze out termites without using pesticides. Some chemical treatments are safer to use around plants, water, and wildlife than others. Bait stations are generally less damaging to the environment than sprayed termiticides.

We recommend using diatomaceous earth to create roach repellent barriers outdoors. Most oil and spray applications will quickly wear down in outside weather, so they aren’t as much use  in the outdoors. If you are really struggling with an outdoor roach problem, we suggest looking for pet-safe bait traps you can set.

You might be tempted to call your local municipality to remove animals from your property, such as a groundhog burrowing in your yard or raccoons getting into your trash cans. However, they typically only remove domestic animals like dogs and cats from properties, or sick and injured wildlife that pose a public safety risk or health threat, such as a rabid animal. They typically do not capture or remove healthy wildlife.

Animal removal professionals have the tools, knowledge, and skills to trap and remove wild animals adequately and humanely. They also can relocate them correctly.

Foxes can catch rabies. However, it is rare, and even rarer for them to pass this disease on to humans. If you do see a fox in your vicinity acting strangely, disorientated, having seizures, or randomly trying to bite, contact your local animal control, police, or Department of Environmental Control. And if you are scratched or bitten by an animal you suspect has rabies, seek medical treatment immediately.

You can get rid of fleas by taking several steps as quickly as possible. First, consult your pet’s vet to determine the best flea shampoo or medicine to apply to their coat. In conjunction with treating your furry friend, treat your house by washing all linens, including pet bedding, in warm to hot water with detergent. You should also use a strong vacuum on all floor surfaces, spread diatomaceous earth in flea-prone areas, and consider using commercial baits, traps, and powders.
