"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

No, you don’t necessarily need a flea bomb in every room of your home, but that largely depends on the level of infestation you have. A single fogger can likely treat most of your space, unless you have a lot of square footage to cover. However, you may need to use one or more per room depending on your needs, which an exterminator can likely determine. 

Scent deterrents like ammonia, vinegar, mothballs, and pepper can help keep coyotes away, but these are best used in tandem with other preventative measures. Remember that ammonia and vinegar can kill your plants and/or grass, so it’s best to soak rags in these substances or spray them on hardscaped areas to avoid damaging your landscape.

While keeping any critter away permanently isn’t always possible, you can keep mice away from your home by setting traps, fumigating your space, and sealing known entry points. Once you’ve taken these steps, take time to work on prevention measures, such as clearing out all clutter and recyclables and removing all food sources.

To determine if you have a rat or mouse infestation, look for several key differences. The most obvious is the size of the rodent: rats are significantly larger with thicker bodies, while mice are much smaller and more slender. You can also identify them by their droppings; rat droppings are larger and rounder, about the size of a raisin, while mouse droppings are smaller, like a grain of rice, and often have pointed ends. Other signs include the sounds they make, as rats produce louder scratching and gnawing noises due to their size. Behaviorally, rats tend to be more cautious, whereas mice are more curious and might be seen more often. Additionally, rat nests are typically larger than those of mice. If you are unable to see the pest or find clear evidence, a professional inspection can provide a definitive identification.

These are the signs of bed bugs to look out for:

  • Blood or rust-colored stains on mattresses, fabrics, or upholstery

  • Dark spots of excrement that look like dots from a fine-tipped permanent marker

  • Tiny eggshells and yellowish shed skins
