"Steven reached out to me via HomeAdvisor the same night I requested local pest control companies. We actually spoke the following day, which was a Saturday, and he came out to address my problem (cicada wasps) on Monday. The treatment was going to require 2 visits over the course of a couple weeks. He kept in contact with me to see how things were progressing and always informed me of when he would be there. He was knowledgeable, courteous, and patient with all my questions. The best part...no more giant cicada wasps digging up my yard! No doubt, give him a call."

"Jessica responded very quickly to a wasp nest that attacked my son and myself. I’m so thankful she was able to safely treat the nest next to my pond without harming any of my fish. She was very knowledgeable and reasonably priced. I will be keeping her for future services including preventative care !"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Rats are attracted to homes that provide food, water, and shelter. Common attractants include uncovered garbage, pet food left out overnight, crumbs and food spills, and easily accessible pantries. They’re also lured in by leaky pipes, standing water, and cluttered areas like basements or garages. Outdoor factors such as overgrown vegetation or woodpiles near the foundation can create additional nesting opportunities.

When it comes to keeping birds from doing their business on your porch rails, you have several DIY options and home remedies you can try: 

  • Tie a fishing line from one end of the deck post to the other. Birds won’t be able to see the line across the railing, so they can’t land on it.  

  • Hang wind chimes close by, which may scare birds away. 

  • Apply a bird gel repellent to the railings, which contains smells that birds generally don’t like. Or, similarly, you can apply citronella or lemon oil around the railings, since birds don’t like strong smells.

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.

Ground moles are not typically dangerous. They're not known to carry rabies like many other wild animals, such as raccoons, skunks, and bats. And they don't typically bite humans, although it's possible if they feel threatened. If you do get bitten by a mole, it's best to see a physician to be safe, but most often, the bite will heal on its own unless it gets infected.

Bed bugs are most active when we are most inactive, typically from 2 a.m. until 5 a.m. They are cunning, and adjust their schedules according to their victims. If you work at night, for instance, your bed bugs will flip the script.
