"Felix Wildlife and Habitat Services did a great job on my bat exclusion project. Jon Felix was knowledgeable about how to resolve the issue and gave me a detailed proposal to outline the work he would have to do. He came over one evening to watch for the bats so he would know where they were entering and exiting my home. He also installed a motion activated camera to be certain of the entry points. I have an older brick home and it seemed like a big job to seal up all of the potential entry points, but I feel confident that bats are no longer able to access my home. I do recommend Felix Wildlife and Habitat Services."

"Very friendly tech came to examine our house. He was really late, but this did not matter - lost his way. The cost was way beyond what we are willing to pay for pest control (over $1000) but we do have a fairly problematic carpenter bee problem."

"We tried several different well known exterminators and found them to be unreliable and very unprofessional. Pest patrol was there for us when we needed them and they are very focused on their customers! We couldn't be happier with their work. I'm very happy we found them on home advisor!"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

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.

If you spot a bug in your home that seems very similar to a flea, it’s likely a springtail, which is a tiny jumping insect that can resemble a flea. Unlike fleas, they are not dangerous to humans or animals because they don’t bite. Fleas are smaller than springtails, which is how you can distinguish them.

To keep animals out, you must prevent them from entering. As long as they can get in, the problem will persist. That said, consider making your attic less inviting using deterrents like motion-activated lights or ultrasonic devices. Additionally, keeping a well-maintained, clean, and uncluttered attic that you regularly inspect for activity may make the space less attractive to critters.

Legal considerations include adherence to local and federal wildlife protection laws, particularly for species that might be protected or endangered.

For years, it was believed that hobo spider bites were incredibly dangerous, causing flesh-eating wounds. But the rumors of their bites were greatly exaggerated, and there's been no real evidence showing a connection between a hobo spider bite and necrotizing wounds. 

That said, the spiders can and do bite, usually as a defense response. They won't attack you unprovoked, but if you take them by surprise and get close enough, they may bite you. Their bites may cause some minor irritation or itchiness.
