"For some reason I had an red ant problem in my kitchen. I tried everything. Archer came in and took care of the problem. He also gave me a 30 day warranty. For $50 for him to jump right in and service my home was pleasing to me. He was very pleasant and nice. He was easy to work with. He tried hard to mesh our schedules for the service. He made a point to come this morning when I was available. He could have put me off til next week so it impressed me he made the appointment work for today. I am very happy with Archer Pest Control. I thought his price was very reasonable. In addition he came out of his way to service me. Everything he moved and took out of place he returned to the proper location. He also gave me other ideas of things to try on my own if the problem continues."

"Jeff has done trapping for us around campus the past couple years and he has been able to catch various different animals that have been a nuisance. I recommend Jeff as a good trapper, but also for good customer service and working our staff."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

While you might want to cut corners by either borrowing or purchasing used live traps for catching rats, this can be dangerous because those traps could contain leftover viruses and bacteria that will enter your home. Always start fresh with new materials to avoid contamination.

Whether a one-time spray treatment to control mosquitoes is enough depends on multiple factors. Often, you’ll notice a big difference after one application. However, mosquitoes are likely to return if you don't reduce attractive standing water habitats. This usually takes four to eight weeks if it’s still prime mosquito season.

If it seems like many flies appeared in your yard overnight, don’t be concerned. A single fly can lay over 200 eggs per day, so having one in your yard could lead to dozens more the next day. That’s why it’s important to eliminate flies from outside your home before they take up residence.

It’s debatable, but most will say either termites or bed bugs are the hardest to remove. When dealing with termites, you must find the central nest (as opposed to satellite nests) and exterminate the queen and all potential queens, which often takes the work of a specialist. Bed bugs, meanwhile, are incredibly hardy, good at hiding, and resistant to pesticides, so it takes very careful, very thorough work to get rid of them permanently. 

The average lifespan of a stink bug is about six to eight months, depending on species and environmental conditions. Their life cycle includes three stages: Egg, nymph, and adult. Eggs hatch in roughly five days to two weeks, followed by a four to six-week nymph stage where they grow and molt. Once fully matured, adult stink bugs focus on reproduction and can fly to new areas, often seeking refuge in homes in search of warmth.
