"Brian has had the animal control contract at our facility for over ten years. He is consistently thorough with setting, baiting and checking his traps. He has removed many problem animals from our facility, some appeared to have rabies. If I need to call him, he is there quickly. His main concern is always getting the job accomplished in a timely and safe manner. Overall, his prices are very reasonable, he is the only pest control man that I will use. I have also used Brian at my home when a raccoon chewed it's way into my attic and had her litter there. Once again, Brian was quick to respond and resolve the issue. I judge people by how well and how quickly they can do their job. Brian is truly top notch."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Mice, rats, and other rodents are survivalists. They've developed a set of skills that can help them survive even in challenging, predatory conditions. For that reason, they can be hard to get rid of once they've staked their claim in your home. Often, the best way to get rid of rodents is to keep them from getting into your home in the first place.

Scented mouse deterrents, like peppermint oil, can be effective in the short term. The pungent smells may temporarily repel mice, but they lose effectiveness as the scent fades or mice get used to it. The main drawbacks are frequent reapplication and the fact that these deterrents don't address the root cause of the infestation, such as entry points or food sources. While they can be part of a broader strategy, scented deterrents alone are rarely enough to eliminate a mouse problem.

False chinch bugs are generally smaller and somewhat paler than true chinch bugs, although they otherwise look similar. The name is a bit of a misnomer: They act very similarly and both feed on plants by sucking out their juices. However, chinch bug feeding tends to be very destructive to the plant, while strangely the false chinch bug does relatively little damage.

Yes, getting rid of bed bugs without an exterminator is possible. However, it will take significantly longer and more effort than professional extermination. Using a HEPA vacuum, steaming, sealing, and other DIY removal methods work with consistent effort. Plus, it won’t guarantee to clear the entire infestation, so you may need to apply several follow-up treatments.

Don’t count on squirrels leaving on their own. Squirrels like the safety that a cozy attic provides and won’t be in a hurry to leave, especially if they’ve recently given birth to a litter. It’s best to address the situation with DIY removal tactics or hire a squirrel removal pro as soon as you suspect squirrels are living in your attic.
