"Efficient-Honest-Dependable-Knowledgeable and Direct ! These are all the things you want and need when you hire a professional. We hired Tim to take care of an animal that gotten into our attic. He did just that! But wait there’s more! Turns out if you’re using any company/provider other than Tim’s you’re clearly not protected from bugs/ pests/ termites etc. We used the same company for 7years and we weren’t getting anything we paid for in protection - nothing ! We won’t use anyone except Tim from here out We highly recommend his Team for your Home or Business concerns He is very personable and will answer any and every question you have regarding pests and or controlling them. We feel safe now under the care of Tim and Ryan With the amount of knowledge he has -not only the insects/bugs etc. -but also the solutions and material it takes to control them . Thank you so much for truly protecting our Home!"

"Chase was outstanding to work with. He was very knowledgeable about how pest could penetrate our home and went to work to ensure he did all he could possible to keep us bug free. He even removed any cob webs he found as part of his service. He is a very pleasant person and we enjoyed talking with him. We would highly recommend Brightland Pest Control, without a doubt."

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

Armadillos have very strong smelling capabilities to track down insects efficiently. But this superpower is actually a double-edged sword because their extreme sense of smell also causes them to be more sensitive and deterred by strong odors. To keep them at bay, you can place small amounts of substances like vinegar, ammonia, and mothballs around your property and near armadillo hotspots.

Although you can technically flood an armadillo out of its hole, it’s important to remember that this can be potentially fatal to the animal. Armadillos sleep between 16 and 18 hours a day, and if you perform this technique while they’re deep in sleep, they may not awake soon enough to save themselves.

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.

Badgers have a strong sense of smell, so it’s possible you can deter them with strong scents, such as applying citronella oil to the bottom of your fence, adding crushed scotch bonnet peppers sprinkled throughout your garden, or mixing both of these into a solution to spray around your home and garden.

Identifying the specific animal running on your roof at night can be challenging without direct observation. Common nocturnal roof visitors include raccoons, squirrels, opossums, and rats. Raccoons are bigger and can create heavy thumping sounds. Squirrels are agile and may produce rapid scurrying noises. Opossums tend to move stealthily with less noise. Rats can make scratching or gnawing sounds. To determine the culprit, look for signs like footprints, droppings, or damaged areas near the roof. For accurate identification, consult a pest control professional or set up wildlife cameras near potential entry points.

While there are plenty of DIY home remedies for pests, trapping and fumigation costs are worth the investment when dealing with a serious infestation that is hard to get rid of, like termites,  bed bugs, or mice.

DIY traps and sprays might help eliminate a few ants or the occasional mouse, but they're no match for a full-blown infestation. Call an extermination pro to locate where pests hide, how to treat the issue at the source, and how to keep it from returning.
