"They were great! I had a ground bees nest and I’m allergic to bees. They came out the very next day and removed the nest. Also checked the house for any other nests without me asking. Super happy with their service!"

"I called John a year ago to clear the mice out of a 20x20 building. The project included removing wall insulation where the mice had lived for 30 years. John gave me a very low quote and worked very hard on removal. When I told him I wasn't totally satisfied, he apologized, admitted the scope of the project was larger than he had anticipated, and came back to fix it. There were no additional charges, and he said his goal was for me to be completely satisfied. He worked until I was happy, came back 2 weeks later to check it all, and called a few times to make sure everything was okay (no extra charge). I called him again this summer when we heard the mice. He spent a long time identifying and remediating possible entry points and setting baits, again for a very reasonable price. I'm so happy to have found a pest control professional with integrity and competence who doesn't charge an arm and a leg. I highly recommend Patterson Pest control!"

"After doing some handy work around my home, I could not believe when I found an infestation of carpenter ants and where they were hiding. I knew anything I could buy at the store wouldn't do the trick and I had to call the professionals in. I decided to call Natures Way Pest control, as I have heard so many positive things about them and the services they offer. First off, they were very knowledgeable in the problem I was having and assured me they could help eliminate it for good. When they showed up, they were very professional and explained everything. I highly recommend this company."

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

Armadillos are attracted to water, so a leaky irrigation system or an overwatered lawn can encourage them to move in. They especially like wet areas where they can burrow and loose soil where they can dig for grubs. They are also attracted to dense ground cover, where they can often find food sources.

There’s little scientific evidence to suggest that homemade remedies to ward off wildlife are effective. But, often, when using them alongside other management techniques, it won’t do any harm to try. Suggestions include using urine-soaked kitty litter or sweat-soaked clothing items. Try applying them around your fence perimeters. Always read the instructions carefully for any commercially-bought repellents and opt for EPA-approved products. Multiple applications, especially after rain, are often necessary.

Most types of lizards are active during warm summer daylight, especially when temperatures rise above 65 degrees Fahrenheit. Some lizards take cover under rocks or burrows on sweltering days to escape the heat, reemerging in the cooler afternoon. It is important to note that lizards are cold-blooded creatures that depend on their environment to regulate their body temperature.

While foxes may find them unpleasant, mothballs are not an effective deterrent. Additionally, mothballs are toxic for humans and animals and should never be used outside. They contain naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene, which are very harmful to the environment. Use safer, more reliable deterrents, or hire a professional wildlife control expert.

Badgers have a strong sense of smell, so it’s possible you can deter them with strong scents, such as applying citronella oil to the bottom of your fence, adding crushed scotch bonnet peppers sprinkled throughout your garden, or mixing both of these into a solution to spray around your home and garden.
