"Eric and Dave are co-owners of this company, and both of them reached out to me within minutes of a request for help, it was amazing. After speaking with them, they made arrangements to show up the very next day to do a walk through of our home and talk about the issue. Eric showed up exactly when he said he would. After taking the tour and talking about the issue, he laid out a potential plan for how to proceed. He was very polite, absolutely no pressure from him at all, and was very forthcoming answering all of our questions and concerns. My wife and I discussed how we wanted to proceed, so we called back and spoke with Dave, as Eric mentioned he was the guy for the moth situation. Dave was also very polite, and listened to every concern we had, answered every question we had, and was very willing to work with us in the approach we felt most comfortable with. With their help and expertise we are rapidly ridding ourselves of the moth problem. Almost completely clear of them already, with a few more things to do. They are VERY reasonable in their costs for the work they do. I would definitely recommend these guys to my family and friends if ever they need pest control."

"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 FAQs, answered by experts

Prime mosquito season varies depending on your location. It’s longer in the sweltering southern states and shorter in the cooler, drier northern regions. In places like Florida, it can run from February to November, but in the Pacific Northwest, mosquitoes appear in April and can hang around until the end of October. While the hottest summer months are when they are at peak population, mosquito seasons are extending in many regions because of the increase in annual temperatures.

Rats have a strong sense of smell and do not like the smell of bleach. However, pouring bleach in drains or toilets is not a good idea because it can cause dangerous chemical reactions and even damage your pipes. It’s best to have a professional plumber install a rat-blocker or non-return valve instead to keep critters from crawling up the toilet.

Stink bugs are herbivores, so they do not bite. Their mouths are designed for feeding on plants. They do not have a stinger either, so the worst part of these pests is the foul odor they emit when they are disturbed. However, you want to avoid allowing an infestation to set in, so you should consider calling an exterminator if you are struggling to get rid of them.

Bees usually have thicker, fuzzy bodies, while wasps have slender, smooth bodies. Behavior and nesting also differ.

You can’t stay in your house while fumigating, even if it’s only one room.  When using a bug bomb or fogger in any area of your home, the entire home must be fully prepped and everyone must leave regardless of how many rooms are being fumigated. If you'll be booking a stay overnight to give your home time to air out, factor the hotel room into your total fumigation cost.
