Very knowledgable about rodent problems and then thorough with figuring out the problem, how to fix it and following up to make sure it was done right. No more mice and rats in our crawlspace! Wish everyone was as good as Critter Control!"

"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."

"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!"

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Earwigs are omnivores, so they have a varied diet. Generally, they feast on decaying organic matter, leaves, flowers, and vegetables. They’ll also eat other insects (dead or alive) like aphids, sowbugs, and mites.

It’s possible that skunks will leave on their own. Skunks may appear briefly on your property and move on if they cannot find food. However, waiting them out is not a foolproof solution. If the skunk finds a food source on or near your property and builds a nest, the animal will almost certainly not choose to move. If you can eliminate food sources, you’ll have a better chance of seeing the skunk leave on its own.

There is no exact science here, due to the nature of nests and how mice raise their young, but a good place to start is to inspect the droppings. A single mouse poops a lot, leaving around 50 droppings in a single day, likely near a primary food source. If you find only sporadic droppings, you likely have a small infestation. If you spot large mounds of droppings, you are dealing with a big problem.

You can use commercial repellents to help deter rodents, but they often have mixed results. A better solution is preventing rodents from getting under your home in the first place. Using steel wool or foam sealer, plug all potential entry points like gaps and cracks in the foundation. 

Also, consider installing hardware cloth or wire mesh over vents, utility openings, and any openings under the porch or foundation. Regular inspections and maintenance will aid in early detection and prevention, ensuring a rodent-free environment beneath your house.

While the term “gnat” is often used as a blanket term for tiny flying insects like fungus gnats and fruit flies, they are different insects. The primary distinctions are in their appearance, diet, and habitat. Fungus gnats are typically darker (gray or black) with long legs and are attracted to damp soil and decaying plant matter, often living in houseplants. In contrast, fruit flies are lighter in color (tan) with shorter legs and are drawn to overripe fruit, high-fructose organic substances, and other sweet materials.
