"George came by today to take care of some problems I've been having with wasps and a few spiders. He sprayed all around the house … even in the heat and pointed out some things for me to be aware of that might continue to be tended to. He is an amiable gentleman who, definitely, knows his business and gets right to it. Will be someone I will recommend to friends, family and neighbors who might need his help and will continue to call upon him whenever the need arises."

Dr. Sunshine Solar started out of the growing need for homeowners who have had solar companies install solar panels with great haste, only to abandon their responsibilities to maintain and service the solar equipment shortly thereafter. Often times homeowners are put on extremely long wait times just to even diagnose the system issue before having to waiting again for that company to come back and fix the equipment. Our goal at Dr. Sunshine is to be able to provide homeowners a timely and responsive solution to their solar system needs. This dedication coupled with 10 years of installation experience can give solar homeowners the knowledge and maintenance needs that large companies often say they will provide but most fall short of.

All Organic Raised Bed Garden plots are our specialty. We will custom design you a plot, or you can order one of our standard plot designs. Our plots are small, we like to call them the "Goes Anywhere Garden Plot". Our standard small plot is 4'x4', our large is 4'x 8'. When order a plot we deliver a complete garden including all organic soil and 3 seed packets or 2 live plants. You have a garden when we leave. Other services: creation of wildlife friendly yards. If you are interested in developing a mini wildlife sanctuary we can help with that, and if you like, we will even get it recognized as a "Certified Wildlife Habitat" to include a placard and registration in a national registry.

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

DIY animal removal is rarely a good idea and is not advised for many reasons. First, these types of animals can carry diseases and, therefore, pose a health risk to you, your family, and your pets if mishandled. Second, depending on your city or municipality, it may be illegal to remove or handle wildlife yourself. 

Sealing your home against these animals yourself is also a bad idea. Trapping an animal under your house will cause odor and insect problems when it passes away. 

If you seal bees in a wall and don’t leave them any way to escape, they may make one of their own. Otherwise, they’ll die inside the wall, and that creates many additional problems. It takes a long time, and the bees will start rotting, which can make your home smell miserable. All the dead bees and any honeycombs they may have created will also attract a number of bugs or other pests to your home. That’s why we suggest removing the bees entirely, and not trying to seal them away.

You should never try to remove a bee's nest yourself because it can be extremely dangerous. The amount of bees that can live in a hive depends on the type of bee, but honey bees can have up to 80,000 bees living in a hive. People who are allergic to bees can have life-threatening reactions from a single sting. So, it's best to leave bee nest removal to the professionals who have the knowledge and equipment to do so safely.

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

Whereas a honeybee can only sting you once, a yellow jacket can sting you multiple times because they don’t leave stingers in the skin. In the unfortunate case that you get stung by a yellow jacket, it’s important to react calmly and quickly. Immediately ice the affected area until the swelling subsides. You may also take an antihistamine if necessary. If you experience an allergic reaction to a yellow jacket sting or have been stung several times, seek medical care right away.
