"I claimed a deal on here on 9/8 for $396 to have an annual pest control service contract with them, but to date I have not been contacted by anyone. I also noticed after I claimed the deal that it was quickly removed from the site, so maybe they didn’t mean for the “deal” to still be active on here. I’ll go elsewhere for pest control service."
"When I called I got in touch with Mike, and he was very detailed, very knowledgeable and he was able to come the very next day to provide the service. On the day of the service, he was running a few minutes behind, but he was courteous to call me to let me know. I would recommend their company to anyone who is looking for a pest control service, they are very professional and they provide you the service in a prompt manner."
"We are pleased with the response and service from Extreme Pest. Looking forward to the partnership with this business to keep our home bug free and appreciate the call back at no charge option if we have an issue between scheduled service."
"Andrew and his team did an excellent job removing squirrels from our attic and preventing them from coming back. He's knowledgeable about what needed to be done, and was very decently priced. He even came back out to check when we thought the squirrels came back (which they had not. They are just very determined animals). Would highly recommend Crazy Critters!"
Yes, in some cases if your damper is left open, animals can come down your chimney. In these instances, it’s more likely that they have fallen in while looking for a safe spot rather than entered your house intentionally. Leaving your damper closed or installing a chimney cap can prevent animals from coming inside.
No, you should never vacuum or sweep up mouse or rat droppings, as doing so can release harmful particles into the air and increase your risk of disease exposure. Instead, wear gloves and a mask, spray the droppings with a disinfectant spray, let it soak for a few minutes, and then carefully wipe them up with paper towels. Afterward, disinfect the area thoroughly and immediately wash your hands when you’re done.
Squirrels hate not having access to secure shelter or food sources. Your best line of defense is to make your property less attractive by removing access to these things. There are chemical squirrel repellents, but these have mixed success. According to Pennsylvania State University, you can apply products containing the bittering agent denatonium saccharide to a squirrel's favorite fence, tree, or roof spots. However, you need to reapply repellents regularly, which aren’t scientifically proven effective.
This varies based on the circumstance. Chemical-based pest control baits and poisons are usually the most potent, but they are unsafe to use around children and pets, so they won’t be a fit for every household.
Safer alternatives, such as boric acid and food-grade diatomaceous earth, can work as well, though they should still stay out of reach. Aside from that, the best thing any DIY-er can do is make their place uninviting by sealing off entry points, eliminating clutter, and maintaining a clean home.
Squash bugs technically aren’t invasive, as they are native to North America. However, this doesn’t mean that they aren’t incredibly destructive. These pests can cause significant damage to squash, pumpkins, and other cucurbit crops by feeding on plant sap and injecting toxins that cause leaves to wilt, dry out, and die. In large numbers, squash bugs can decimate entire plants (especially younger ones), making them a major nuisance for home gardeners and commercial growers alike.
