"Hired them for an emergency service to get rid of hornets in the work area at a residence. Construction work had to be shut down because of the problem. They claimed they could get rid of them immediately. They sprayed some poison and it didn't do anything. After they left the hornets would land on the sprayed areas and it didn't bother them. Called the tech back out and this time he claimed he couldn't do anything about the hornets. Same tech - Brian Boone. Charged me $365. And apparently they are using techs which are not licensed by the state. Talked to a few persons on the phone at this company, but no one with any decision making ability will get back to me. Horrible experience all around. Fraudulent business practices."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

The cost of pest control is $175 for the average homeowner. However, you could spend as little as $100 or as much as $500 or more, depending on the infestation size, the number of visits you need, and the pest you’re exterminating.

For example, if you need to rid your home of spiders, you’ll likely be spending between $100 and $300. However, if you have a termite problem, you can expect a bill of $230 to $2,500 or more, depending on the infestation size and damage caused.

The length of time it will take for an exterminator to successfully get rid of roaches in your home depends on the type of roach, the severity of the infestation, and the extermination method. While some smaller infestations may be effective within 1 to 3 days, most exterminations take around 2 to 8 weeks to work completely. More severe infestations can take up to 6 months to fully get rid of cockroaches.

Skunks are nocturnal creatures and are most active around dusk and dawn. Skunks are also dormant or inactive in the winter, and you’ll see more activity as the weather warms up. They’re highly active in the spring when they’re foraging for fresh food.
