"Excellent. Darian is a straight shooter. I highly recommend going with a small operation like his and avoiding the big players who have high overhead costs and greater financial motivations. I made a few phone calls and started with a company that was highly rated, but I also noticed sky-high costs involved. They charged a $95 trip fee which was excessive, but I wanted to get help ASAP because my renters was very worried. The estimate was for nearly $3000. I immediately knew that was off the wall. Then I called Darian. He was easy going and told me there wouldn't be a trip fee. He diagnosed the job and proposed nearly the same course of action minus a completely unnecessary $1000 repair of something that wasn't broken. His estimate was less than a quarter of the original quote and he did the work without any snags. The final cost didn't exceed the original. I even questioned the cost in the beginning and thought it should cost MORE for disinfectant, but Darian said it was no problem. The work isn't rocket science. Darian could have done $2000 worth of work but he recommended an incremental approach, addressing what was truly required and taking prudent proactive measures, rather than every possible action and running up the price. He did a thorough, honest job."

The longevity of pest control treatment depends on the treatments and the type of pest. Pest control services for serious infestations can last 3 to 6 months. Some treatments are more or less permanent if the pro fixes how pests were entering the home. Other treatments, like sprayed barriers or bait traps, are designed to last for anywhere from 30 days to several months. Pest control often offers to re-apply treatments like this to ensure full eradication and discourage new infestations.
High-frequency bird repellent devices are effective at driving away birds, which is their intended purpose. However, these devices also tend to have unintended negative consequences. For example, if you or your neighbors own pets, the high-pitched noise emitted by these electronic devices will cause them distress and may even make them aggressive.
There’s indeed no guarantee termites won’t return to your home, even after top-notch professional treatment. In areas where these hardy pests are prevalent, it can be tricky to banish them for good.
However, maintaining preventative measures, keeping a close eye out for early signs, and purchasing an ongoing professional treatment management plan can ensure you keep termites at bay and reduce the chance of any damage. Professional whole-house termite treatments can last five years or more.
Both insects can damage wood, but there are key differences between termites and carpenter ants that tell them apart. Carpenter ants tunnel through moist wood, leaving behind smooth tunnels and sawdust-like piles, as they don't eat the wood but rather carve it for nesting. In contrast, termites actually consume wood, creating irregular galleries filled with mud and dirt, and leaving behind mud tubes as their signature. In terms of appearance, carpenter ants have segmented bodies with heart-shaped heads and larger front wings, while termites have more oval bodies with straight antennae and equal-sized wings.
If you’ve spotted a skunk or know that one of these furry creatures sprayed one of your family members, your answer is fairly obvious. However, a skunky smell in your house that isn’t coming from these critters may be a sign of a dangerous gas leak. If you suspect this, leave your home immediately and call emergency services. It could also be a build-up of dangerous gas in your home’s septic system or plumbing. Call a professional plumber near you to make an assessment.
