"Very professional and explained everything they were going to do over the phone and again in person. They are fast and efficient. We get water bugs where we live if we don’t spray. I was using a store bought spray that wasn’t fully eliminating the problem along with spiders. Ive never found a company that will also spray on the inside, that made a huge difference! Essential pest control came out a few weeks ago and I haven’t seen a bug since! I highly recommend them!"

"5 Stars - Outstanding Service and Long-Term Results! Stinger Pest Control absolutely exceeded our expectations from day one. We had been struggling with a persistent ant issue in the kitchen and were starting to see wasps showing up around the back patio, making it hard to enjoy our outdoor space. After calling several companies, Stinger stood out immediately with their prompt response and professionalism. They scheduled an inspection the very next day, arrived right on time, and took the time to explain exactly what was going on and how they planned to address it. The technician was extremely thorough, inspecting not just the obvious problem areas but also places we never thought to check—like small gaps around windows and hidden corners in the basement. They treated the ant trails, removed two active wasp nests, and even sealed up potential entry points to prevent future issues. We were impressed by how careful and detail-oriented they were throughout the whole process. What really made a difference, though, was enrolling in their monthly insecticide spraying service. Since starting the monthly treatments, we haven’t seen a single ant, wasp, or any other unwanted visitor in or around the house. It’s been such a relief not to worry about pests sneaking in again, and the peace of mind alone makes it worth every penny. The technicians always show up on schedule for the sprayings, and they’re polite, efficient, and respectful of our property. If you’re tired of quick fixes that don’t last, Stinger Pest Control is the way to go. Their service is reliable, thorough, and clearly designed with long-term prevention in mind. We’re incredibly happy with the results and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to friends, neighbors, or anyone looking to take pest problems off their plate for good."

"Very friendly tech came to examine our house. He was really late, but this did not matter - lost his way. The cost was way beyond what we are willing to pay for pest control (over $1000) but we do have a fairly problematic carpenter bee problem."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

To determine if you have a rat or mouse infestation, look for several key differences. The most obvious is the size of the rodent: rats are significantly larger with thicker bodies, while mice are much smaller and more slender. You can also identify them by their droppings; rat droppings are larger and rounder, about the size of a raisin, while mouse droppings are smaller, like a grain of rice, and often have pointed ends. Other signs include the sounds they make, as rats produce louder scratching and gnawing noises due to their size. Behaviorally, rats tend to be more cautious, whereas mice are more curious and might be seen more often. Additionally, rat nests are typically larger than those of mice. If you are unable to see the pest or find clear evidence, a professional inspection can provide a definitive identification.

Scarecrows and lifelike animal decoys, such as snakes, owls, coyotes, foxes, and hawks, can initially deter rabbits. However, these tactics might lose effectiveness if rabbits learn they are harmless. Having your dog or cat roam and mark the yard with their scent can also prove beneficial. Keep in mind tactics like these work best when combined with other methods.

It can take several days to a few weeks to completely get rid of gnats, though this timeline can vary depending on the severity of the infestation and the methods used to eliminate the gnats. During this time, it’s crucial to identify and eliminate the source of the infestation, such as removing any overripe fruit, decaying plant matter, or damp soil.

Spiders are not typically attracted to bedding as a primary source of food or shelter, but they sometimes inadvertently end up there. Spiders can hitch a ride on your clothing, belongings, or through open windows and doors. The underside of a bed, especially if it's near a wall or corner, can provide such a sheltered spot where they can hide and build webs. Dust and clutter under your bed can create ideal hiding places as well. If your room has other insects like flies or mosquitoes, spiders may be drawn to the area in search of prey. 

Most spiders are harmless and are more interested in finding and eating insects than trying to bite you or your family members. Certain spiders in your home may be advantageous if you have an issue with insects. Most spiders are non-venomous and have small mouths, so even if they did bite you, it wouldn’t be enough to cause any harm.

However, some species of spiders can cause harm if you are a victim of their spider bite, including the black widow and brown recluse varieties. Both species’ venom is poisonous, and you should seek medical help if bitten.
