"Overall, we were very happy with Brian and so happy to have the groundhog that was eating our tomatoes finally gone.  I had to give a weak rating for punctuality since I rearranged my day for an 11am appointment, but Brian showed up about 3 hours later.  He said he was stuck at a previous job, which happens I know, but an earlier call to let me know about the delay would have been greatly appreciated.  After that intial problem, Brian did an excellent job.  He was very nice and accomodating that I didn't want to use the kill trap that he initially suggested, and kindly used the no-kill trap and agreed to relocate the groundhog.  As a side note, we have been enjoying watching a little bunny grow up in our yard all summer, and on the first day, we came home to find that bunny in our groundhog trap.  I was so happy we didn't use the kill trap because we would have been crushed to kill our little rabbit friend.  Instead we just set him free and reset the trap.   Anyway,  unlike another company I called that would only allow use of the trap for 3 days (for $185), Brian said we could keep the trap as long as it took.  It was a good thing since we didn't catch that groundhog for 8 days and we would have wasted our money on a company that had the 3 day limit.  While at our house to set up the trap, Brian was very patient showing us how to use it and letting us practice setting it up a few times.  He also walked around the whole house and pointed out any other areas where pests could possibly get in.  This was a great service that I don't think that other companies offer at no extra cost.  We finally came home to the trapped groundhog late one evening, and despite a rainy day, Brian came over the next morning to take the groundhog to its new home.  Overall it was a fairly efficient and easy process.  I was a bit suprised how much it costs to remove one pest, but shopping around, Brain's price seemed right in line with others in the areas, plus he offers the whole house inspection, so I think prices are fair.  As a bonus, Brian is quite a character and quite entertaining.

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Squirrels rely heavily on their sense of smell and are deterred by a variety of scents. Some of the most effective smells for repelling them include peppermint oil, coffee grounds, white vinegar, garlic, cinnamon, rosemary, and predator urine. They also have a strong aversion to capsaicin, the compound that makes chili peppers hot, making capsaicin-based sprays an effective repellent for areas like gardens or bird feeders. For a DIY solution, you can create a spray from garlic and vinegar and apply it daily. Additionally, squirrels dislike strong, fresh scents, so placing items like strong-smelling soaps or dryer sheets in areas they frequent can also help keep them away.

No, vinegar cannot kill bamboo. Common household chemicals like vinegar and even bleach are unlikely to kill bamboo, and they may only have minimal effect on bamboo roots. Since they can alter the chemical composition of nearby soil, we suggest avoiding these methods. Bamboo is very tough and not even all herbicides work well against it. To beat back bamboo, find an herbicide that’s specifically designed to work against tough grasses.

Both insects can damage wood, but there are key differences between termites and carpenter ants that tell them apart. Carpenter ants tunnel through moist wood, leaving behind smooth tunnels and sawdust-like piles, as they don't eat the wood but rather carve it for nesting. In contrast, termites actually consume wood, creating irregular galleries filled with mud and dirt, and leaving behind mud tubes as their signature. In terms of appearance, carpenter ants have segmented bodies with heart-shaped heads and larger front wings, while termites have more oval bodies with straight antennae and equal-sized wings.

The cost of pest control services depends on various factors, but the average homeowner pays around $175, with a typical range of $100 to $500. Your final cost will be influenced by the type of pest, the size and severity of the infestation, and the number of treatments needed.

Service costs also vary by frequency:

  • One-time service: $300–$550

  • Initial visit for ongoing service: $150–$300

  • Monthly visits: $40–$70

  • Quarterly visits: $100–$300

  • Annual visits: $300–$550

For specific pest examples, getting rid of spiders typically costs between $100 and $300, whereas a termite infestation can cost from $230 to $2,500 or more, depending on the extent of the damage.

The most common wasps are hornets, yellowjackets, and paper wasps. Both hornets and yellowjackets are black and yellow, and hornets are known to be more aggressive if their nests are disturbed. Paper wasps are black or reddish-brown with yellow markings and often build nests on eaves or branches. Of the more than 300,000 species of wasps, these are the most often encountered by pest control professionals.
