"Michael Lyday was the technician and was very professional and courteous. He set a trap and returned the next morning to find a female raccoon. He also found she’d been nursing and captured two kits in the crawl space. He told me to tell him if I heard anymore sounds which I did when he returned the following day. He captured two more kits and told me to call him again if I heard any more sounds. There weren’t any more and I was impressed that he still called to follow up. I was completely satisfied with his humane methods of removing the animals from my property."

"DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY FOR BED BUGS. I bought a house not knowing it had bed bugs. I wanted to treat ASAP so I could move in. The website says that they have chemical and heat options for the treatment of bed bugs and that they will inspect and make a recommendation based on the circumstances. This is false. They do NOT have heat treatment. The receptionist said that the chemical treatment should be good enough and that heat treatment is really expensive. What she did not mention is that chemical treatment does not solve the problem because it does not kill the eggs. I was not informed of this until after they had taken my payment and started treating. I asked how many treatments I will need and how long it will be before I can move my stuff in. The receptionist said the technician will make recommendations after he is finished. I was told the exterminator would let me know what he found. The only information I received was on the back of my receipt, which said “Bugs found. Treated.” They have a “text us” option on their web site. I was at work and could not talk on the phone, so I texted the number asking for clarification and a plan to exterminate the issue completely. I never received a text back or a call back. When at the house 2 days after treatment, I found a live bed bug. I hired a different company to heat treat, which immediately solves the issue because it kills bed bugs in all stages of life. The other company even has a 90 day warranty. The chemical treatment cost me $350, and the heat treatment cost me $1,350. But with needing multiple treatments, the chemical treatment would probably have cost the same or even more. And that doesn’t include having to pay at least an extra month of rent on top of my mortgage because I don’t want to move all of my belongings in to a house with bed bugs. I wasted $350 on something that didn’t work. Learn from my mistake."

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

Honey bees are most likely to swarm during spring and early summer, typically from April through June, as colonies expand and prepare for new growth. Swarming occurs when a hive becomes overcrowded, prompting the queen and a group of worker bees to leave in search of a new nesting site. During this time, you may notice a temporary increase in bee activity around your property.

Ensure proper ventilation, address leaks, and conduct regular inspections.

Yes, they apply humane techniques, prioritizing environmental balance while addressing bee concerns.

Yes, honey bees can sting, but they typically only do it when they feel their hive is threatened. When honey bees are away from their hive, they’re focused on foraging for pollen and nectar, making them unlikely to sting. Only female honey bees, called workers, have stingers, and they will die if they need to use them. Generally, if left undisturbed, honey bees will leave you alone.

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.
