"We had hired another pest control person to trap and remove varmints who had created a void under our front porch. He set a trap which captured a skunk. However after failing to respond to my calls / texts for two days, I had an urgency to have the skunk removed and released from the trap. That's when I used the Angi app and Apple Pest Control was recommended. I called their office the next morning and within 90 minutes Stan arrived and professionally removed the entrapped skunk, removing it to a distant rural location where it was released. Since then Stan has trapped several raccoons, a possum and skunk, helping us rid these pests from our property. I highly recommend Apple Pest Control"

"They have been doing my pest control for more than 10 years. Hector is great to work with and his follow up is always appreciated. I had a little problem with silverfish and he made it a point to send someone out with some packets to stop that and did not charge me for the follow up service. Highly recommend them!"
"Silver Lining Pest Control are superb. It's a family business. They guarantee their work. If you see a bug and it's under warranty they come back and spray again."
"I have used these guys twice for rodents in the attic of my rental property. The first time was great. They were prompt and effective. Unfortunately another rodent got in due to some holes near the fireplace. It took a long time to get those repaired but once I did I asked DM to remove the dead animal from my wall. Joseph came out but never contacted me. No work was performed and I called the owner a couple of times to see when they could come back out. Each time, I was told that I should get a call soon to schedule the service. That never happened though. I'm disappointed. They were great when they actually did the work. "
"Used Blackhawk for termite services after getting bids from multiple companies. Awesome service! Most knowledgable and took the time to educate me along the way ONLY selling me what I needed and yet still willing to stand behind their work. I highly recommend them for all your pest control needs. You won't be dissapointed."
The time and number of treatments required for an exterminator to get rid of roaches depend on factors like the roach type, infestation severity, and extermination method. For small infestations, a single treatment may be sufficient, showing results within 1 to 3 days. However, most cases require several treatments and take about 2 to 8 weeks to resolve completely. Severe infestations can take up to 6 months to fully eliminate.
When a wasp stings, it pushes its stinger into the skin and releases venom. The sting site will typically become inflamed and swollen and likely hurt quite a bit.
Some people are allergic to the venom and can have serious allergic reactions to a wasp sting. This sting could cause the throat to swell, difficulty breathing, hives, rapid heart rate, and vomiting. If you or someone has an allergic reaction to a wasp sting, it’s important to call 911 for emergency treatment, as reactions can be life-threatening.
The best animal repellents for gardens include a variety of different scents. You can use predator urine to keep away deer, raccoons, squirrels, and more. The odor will tell the critters that your yard is a dangerous place. Other scents that repel critters are herbs like lavender, geranium, and mint. You can also use hot pepper, garlic, and strong-smelling soap.
A squirrel in a chimney may sound like gnawing since they like to chew through a wide range of materials. You may also hear a persistent scratching sound if they’re trapped inside and unable to get out themselves. Other evidence of a squirrel in your chimney includes holes on or around your chimney as well as droppings or damage to roof shingles or wiring.
No, the spotted lanternfly does not sting, bite, or otherwise do anything painful or damaging to humans or animals. Do not hesitate to approach and kill the insects and any eggs you find on sight—you’ll be playing an important role in slowing the spread of these invasive and destructive pests. If you’re not sure if the insect is a spotted lanternfly, snap a picture and contact your local extension office for help identifying it.
