Nathan and his partner Kevin set traps for the raccoons after squirting a pheromone deterrent into the eave. The raccoons had apparently already departed. The traps were never disturbed.
The eaves were sealed with galvanized steel which wrapped from the inside of the gutter around the edge of the roof deck to the top surface. This was done to all gutter lines and all flashing was reinforced. The gable vents were screened.

Nathan, Kevin, and Jeremy worked carefully and neatly. They are vey knowledgable thorough and professional. I highly recommend this company.

"They setup for service went fine.  He came out at the appointed time and provided a quote of his services.  I selected him based on the cost and he was also replacing the company (owner retiring) that previously performed the initial & annual booster termite service in the purchase of my home.  He explained everything he would do as part of his service and he provided a warranty covering termite damage incurred, not just retreat, to home.  So the service was scheduled and everything seem to go accordingly, however I noticed afterwards several wooden beams from backyard walkway were left leaning against my house by the garage.  I contacted him in reference to the beams status, he indicated they should not have been left there.  His guys should have either replaced them or disposed of them.  He recommended although they were treated that it is best the beams are disposed of since they attract termites.  When I asked how to dispose of them, he indicated he would have his guys take care of it and asked when was my garbage pick-up.  Several weeks and phone calls later, the beams were still leaning against my house.  So I eventually disposed of the beams without ever hearing back from the owner. 
I also had to contact the company in March to follow-up on my bond certificate that I had not yet received.  I received it by mail as few weeks later.  Follow-thru is a issue with this company.

"Brad responded quickly to my initial call. I used Angie's List reviews in my decision to call Allstar. He came out to my house the next day to investigate the scratching noises I had recently heard in the ceiling and wall spaces. After inspecting the attic and the crawl space under the house, Brad quickly determined that it was rats (and possibly mice). He asked me relevant questions about sights, sounds, and smells I may have experienced and helped me understand the behavior of rodents. My house is small, yet he spent an hour and a half with me walking around my house (inside and outside) and pointing out small places of entry on the outside for rodents to enter the attic and crawlspace. Brad answered all of my numerous questions and provided a fair estimate of the cost for rat traps, removal, and closure of all entry points during the initial visit/consultation. He followed up the next day with an e-mailed quote of the work to be performed with a one-year warranty on repairs for rat re-entry. I was very impressed by Brad's level of professionalism and knowledge, as well as his patience with someone who was very freaked out about having rodents hanging out in her attic and crawlspace. He returned the next day, set three traps in the attic and three in the crawlspace. A few hours later, a fat rat set off a trap in the attic - a very loud, 30-second drama. I immediately texted him to let him know (about 7pm), he responded by text, and returned the next day to remove the remains of a stupid, fat rat. (He looked fat when Brad showed it to me.)  A few days later, the fat rat's accomplice was captured and killed in the crawlspace. Brad and his assistant re-baited and left the traps a few more days, and began the repair work to close off entry points. They also did some additional work to prevent bats in the gable vents. And Brad also volunteered to do a few extra things for me like changing flood lights that were extremely high on my house. He left the traps three more days to be certain all of the rodents had been captured. I highly recommended Allstar, and would definitely use them again for their services.

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Roaches have a strong sense of smell and are repelled by a variety of potent aromas. Scents that can help deter them include citrus (such as lemon and orange), herbs like peppermint, mint, basil, thyme, and oregano, spices like bay leaves, cinnamon, clove, and garlic, as well as lavender, eucalyptus, citronella, tea tree oil, and vinegar.

You can use these scents in several ways to create an unwelcoming environment for roaches:

  • Plants: Place mint or lavender plants in your home or garden.

  • Powders and Leaves: Sprinkle garlic powder or place crushed bay leaves and citrus peels in high-risk areas like kitchens, bathrooms, and entry points.

  • Sprays: Create a diluted solution with scents like lemon or vinegar to spray in your home. These can also be used in cleaning products or as room fresheners.

  • Essential Oils: While essential oils of these scents can be used, be cautious as they can be toxic to pets if inhaled.

It is important to note that while these smells can help keep roaches away, they typically do not kill them and may not be enough to drive out an existing infestation entirely. For best results, combine these scent-based deterrents with regular cleaning. Be sure to clean up all food spills, crumbs, and dirty dishes promptly, and keep trash cans covered with a tight-fitting lid to remove potential food sources.

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.

The time and number of treatments required to get rid of roaches depend on several factors, including the type of roach, the severity of the infestation, and the extermination method. For small infestations, a single treatment may be sufficient, with results seen in as little as 1 to 3 days. Larger or more severe infestations will require several treatments. It typically takes around 2 to 8 weeks to completely eliminate roaches in most cases, but severe infestations can take up to 6 months to fully resolve.

You can’t stay in your house while fumigating, even if it’s only one room.  When using a bug bomb or fogger in any area of your home, the entire home must be fully prepped and everyone must leave regardless of how many rooms are being fumigated. If you'll be booking a stay overnight to give your home time to air out, factor the hotel room into your total fumigation cost.

Scorpions can climb walls with rough surfaces (like stucco siding). They need something to grip onto, which is why they can easily climb on clothes, comforters on beds, and other items in your home.

However, it’s worth noting that scorpions cannot climb clean glass. So if you have a hole or damaged area where scorpions are coming in, a temporary fix may be to secure a piece of glass over the area.
