"Pickle Pest Control came out to my property and performed their Initial Treatment plan, since it had been quite some time since I had last had my property serviced by a pest control company. Not only did they immediately get to work, but they informed me of what all they were doing, and why, as they completed their work on my property. Great execution by Pickle Pest Control! Highly RECOMMENDED!!!"

"I needed a WDI inspection on a shed of a house I was buying, first company didn't inspect the shed, and would be about 10 days before they could come back and would still have to charge me. JP Property Services understood the time crunch I was in to get this done to be able to close on the house. He came out that same day, and cut me a break on the price for only having to do the shed. If I ever need pest control service, I will be using JP Property Services."

"We have (had depending on when you read this) in our chimney. Our landlord wanted to block their entry / exit and let the babies die. We just wanted to re-home. We called another pest control service whose answer was "probably barn swallows, can't touch'em *click*". Tom Samples's reached out to us via Home Advisor and gave us all the information we needed to ensure that not only did the birds get to live a happy life, but how to watch for when they leave and how to make sure more don't come in. The tech on the phone was very professional, knowledgeable and helpful. We will be reaching out again for any other pest control needs."

Pest Control FAQs, answered by experts

To determine if you have a rat or mouse infestation, look for several key differences. The most obvious is the size of the rodent: rats are significantly larger with thicker bodies, while mice are much smaller and more slender. You can also identify them by their droppings; rat droppings are larger and rounder, about the size of a raisin, while mouse droppings are smaller, like a grain of rice, and often have pointed ends. Other signs include the sounds they make, as rats produce louder scratching and gnawing noises due to their size. Behaviorally, rats tend to be more cautious, whereas mice are more curious and might be seen more often. Additionally, rat nests are typically larger than those of mice. If you are unable to see the pest or find clear evidence, a professional inspection can provide a definitive identification.

You can easily find sprays that claim they are safe for pets and kids. However, we’d rather not use them in our own homes if we’re worried about pet safety: They still include pesticides and other chemicals, and are best avoided in any food prep areas like the kitchen, or any spots where children and pets may place. That’s why sprays didn’t end up in our suggestions for the safest options.

The time it will take to see results from a professional exterminator can vary depending on the type of treatment and the severity of the infestation. You may notice a reduction of ants within a few days, but it can take weeks to months for the treatment to take full effect and kill the entire colony of ants. Make sure to discuss what results you can expect with your exterminator and any post-infestation cleaning you should do after the treatment.

If you’ve had a prior bat infestation or simply want to avoid having bats invade your home in the first place, there are a few steps you can take without the need for a pro. 

  • Seal entry points, such as where your chimney meets your house, or other gaps or holes exist.

  • Use bat deterrents like bright lights or ultrasonic devices to force them away from your home. 

  • Reduce bat attractions like standing water and bird nectar feeders inviting bats into your yard.

A rodent infestation often has a distinctive, unpleasant smell. The most common odor is a strong, musky scent, similar to stale ammonia, which comes from mouse urine. As the infestation grows, the smell can become more intense. You might also notice a foul, decomposing odor if mice or rats die inside the walls or hidden areas. This combination of smells is a clear sign of a rodent problem and should prompt immediate action to address the infestation.
