"I had a beautiful Willow oak in my front yard that showed severe signs of stress and disease. This is the first year it ever looked as bad as it does and I was desperate. I called my own landscaper as well as others but no one seemed to have the time to look what was going on. So I took a shot and went on Angie's list and saw pest professionals. It was on a weekend and I sent a note for him to contact me. Less than half hour later he did. He came out. Took a look at what was going on and was able to diagnose the problem right away. Tim and Ryan worked immediately to try to help and save this gorgeous 16 plus foot oak. He also diagnosed a few other trees and took care of them as well. He has been extremely proactive, informative, and certainly knows his field better than any pest professional I have ever met. My husband and I were so impressed by him and his fund of knowledge that we hired him to take care of our termite and pest control, as well as our flowering trees and shrubs."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), fleas can carry human disease-causing pathogens for Plague, Flea-borne typhus, and Cat scratch disease. These diseases are caused by fleas such as Oropsylla montana, Xenopsylla cheopis, and Ctenocephalides felis, and are commonly found in rural areas of the western United States, California, Texas, and Hawaii. Fleaborne parasites like tapeworms can also be spread to people and animals if they accidentally swallow an infected flea, and small children are at a higher risk. Symptoms may not be present in most infected people.

Citrus scents such as lemon or lime are lethal to bed bugs. They’re drawn to the smell, but the chemicals often kill them. There are other ways to kill bed bugs without an exterminator, including using steam, DIY heat treatments, essential oils, diatomaceous earth, and more. However, you should hire a professional bed bug exterminator to eliminate large numbers of bed bugs.

To find a quality professional and avoid pest control scams, it's important to do your homework before you hire. Start by reading customer reviews or getting a direct recommendation from a friend, neighbor, or family member. Once you have a shortlist of top-rated companies, verify that each pro is licensed and insured. It’s also a good idea to get multiple price quotes from vetted pros to find the best deal.

Grass spiders, also known as funnel-web spiders, are the culprits here, building small webs directly into the grass to catch any insects that have the misfortune of crawling too close. They are often confused with wolf spiders, as the two species look nearly identical, but grass spiders are actually great helpers in maintaining your lawn.

It’s very rare to find mice in a bed frame or mattress outside of the most extreme infestation scenarios. That said, your bedroom isn’t off limits for mice if it offers them shelter, food, and warmth. Look for any gaps or openings a mouse could squeeze into, and don’t keep food in your bedroom.
