"This one is for the skeptics: During a remodel we discovered that the largest room in our house was completely un-insulated between ceiling and roof. This company said they could blow insulation in from one end of the 20 foot ceiling to the other. I doubted it. I asked them to cut a hole in the center of the room. They began to blow. I still doubted. I climbed the ladder. It looked like a huge amount of insulation but how could I know that the insulation I saw was not just gathering around the hole. The flow didn't seem particularly forceful. I was THAT dreaded customer. I asked our contractor, a neutral third party, to cut holes on each end of the room. Insulation came pouring down on top of him. He was impressed. I was impressed, and totally embarrassed. But very satisfied. The techs, Joe and Jake, were wonderful through the whole ordeal. Very patient, very kind, very understanding. "You wouldn't be the first to doubt that this could be done," Joe said kindly. They were careful, tidy, and 100% professional. The room is very noticeably warmer and quieter. I couldn't recommend them enough. If you're skeptical, don't be. This works, they can do it, and it's 100% worth it."
"Went great! Signed up for initial treatment of household pests. Serviceman Dedric came out on schedule, calling beforehand to be sure I was home and to let me know he was on the way. First treatment gave AMAZING results. Before the next scheduled service date a month or so later, Dedric called to see how things were going and if I needed any interim supplies, stopping by the next day to deliver them. He just came for the one-month follow-up and treated a few more areas, though we aren't having much of an issue anymore. We are to just let him know anytime we need him to return. He is easy to get ahold of, easy to reschedule with, and VERY EXPERIENCED in this field! He knew exactly where to treat before I even had to say it. Will definitely recommend this company and service provider to anyone in need! "
"We called EasyPM after we came home from a family trip and thought we brought bed bugs home. Andreas from EasyPM was friendly and thorough. We would certainly recommend him and EasyPM to anyone!"
Foxes can catch rabies. However, it is rare, and even rarer for them to pass this disease on to humans. If you do see a fox in your vicinity acting strangely, disorientated, having seizures, or randomly trying to bite, contact your local animal control, police, or Department of Environmental Control. And if you are scratched or bitten by an animal you suspect has rabies, seek medical treatment immediately.
The safest ways to treat bed bugs are non-chemical, such as using diatomaceous earth, essential oils, and heat and cold treatments. Heat treatments are also one of the most effective methods because it kills bed bugs at all levels of life stages: eggs, nymphs, and adults. However, you still need to take precautions by removing items that can be susceptible to heat damage. You also need to remove plants and pets from your home during treatment.
Armadillos have very strong smelling capabilities to track down insects efficiently. But this superpower is actually a double-edged sword because their extreme sense of smell also causes them to be more sensitive and deterred by strong odors. To keep them at bay, you can place small amounts of substances like vinegar, ammonia, and mothballs around your property and near armadillo hotspots.
Although you can technically flood an armadillo out of its hole, it’s important to remember that this can be potentially fatal to the animal. Armadillos sleep between 16 and 18 hours a day, and if you perform this technique while they’re deep in sleep, they may not awake soon enough to save themselves.
The time of day that most snakes are active is at night. This is when they prefer to hunt since they can do so under the cover of darkness, out of sight of predators and the prey they stalk. However, some snake species prefer very hot temperatures and are strictly active during the day.
The easiest way to tell what kind of wasp you have is to identify its size, markings, color, and the type of nest it builds. These factors can help differentiate one type of wasp from another, since there are hundreds of thousands of different species. If you need help identifying the wasp type, consult a local pest control professional.
