"Everything was explained satisfactorily. This was our first experience with pest control, so we were apprehensive at first. It's early for carpenter ants to appear so we got on top of it right away. let's see if the treatment works in the ant's busy season. Was a bit disappointed that no one followed up with a phone call to see how we were doing."

"Matt was wonderful. He removed the nest from upper bathroom vent, cleaned and installed a screen in vent so I won't have that problem again. I was so satisfied with job and price. The "pest control" companies don't have a license to remove wildlife, they passed me onto construction companies that wanted $1,000 for this job!!!! Thankfully Angie's List had Get Out Critters. Grateful Gail"

"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."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Trees that provide a habitat to bats and an abundance of bugs—their main food source—will attract bats to your yard. Because the North American landscape has changed so much in recent years, bats have a harder time finding trees with cavities to shelter in. If your yard has a dead or dying tree with a lot of sun exposure, bats will likely be drawn to it because trees with those features are less common.

Sure, they are icky to behold, but are silverfish bad? In terms of illness or injury to humans, the answer is no because they don’t bite or carry disease. However, they can damage household items, including books, wallpaper, certain foods, and clothing, as they love to feed on starchy materials and adhesives. What’s more, their presence often indicates high humidity or moisture issues in the home, which can lead to further pest problems.

Pest control timelines depend on what services are being provided, size and type of infestation, and size of your home. Some inspections can take an hour or more, while preventative treatments only take 30 minutes to complete. Basic spaying for a problem like roaches or termites can take about an hour for small homes, but much longer for large properties and infestations. Consult your pest control pro for a time estimate based on your situation.

It’s normal to spot the occasional ant roaming your house, but if you’ve applied DIY treatments that don’t eradicate the problem, you should consider hiring a professional ant removal service. You should also be concerned about an ant infestation when these pests cause structural damage to your home by tunneling into wood features.

When you spray a roach, the chemicals, usually a mix of neurotoxins like pyrethroids or pyrethrins, start affecting its nervous system almost immediately. It disrupts the roach’s nerve signals, causing paralysis and eventually death. You'll often see the roach twitch, flip over on its back, and stop moving within seconds to minutes.
