"Foxie Pest Control was amazing! I had a raccoon in my attic, and they came out right away to take care of the problem. They thoroughly inspected my home and showed me exactly where the raccoon was getting in. They also pointed out several openings around my attic that I didn’t even know were there and explained how those areas could allow wildlife to enter. I really appreciated how they took the time to educate me and answer all of my questions. They were professional, honest, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. Thanks to Foxie Pest Control, I feel safe in my home again. I highly recommend them to anyone dealing with wildlife or pest issues!"

Badgers have a strong sense of smell, so it’s possible you can deter them with strong scents, such as applying citronella oil to the bottom of your fence, adding crushed scotch bonnet peppers sprinkled throughout your garden, or mixing both of these into a solution to spray around your home and garden.
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.
You’ll want to call a licensed and insured wildlife removal company that offers:
Full property inspection—indoor and outdoor
Proper animal identification
Written management plan with follow-up visits included
Leaving lights on is not an effective or foolproof method for keeping cockroaches away. While roaches are nocturnal and prefer darkness, light alone is not enough to stop them, especially if they are seeking food, water, or shelter. A bright light might temporarily discourage them, but hungry or determined roaches will often adapt and venture into lit areas. For more effective cockroach control, it is better to focus on proven prevention methods. These include maintaining cleanliness by eliminating food crumbs, sealing cracks and entry points, reducing clutter that provides hiding spots, and fixing any moisture issues. Using traps or repellents can also be part of a comprehensive strategy.
While foxes may find them unpleasant, mothballs are not an effective deterrent. Additionally, mothballs are toxic for humans and animals and should never be used outside. They contain naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene, which are very harmful to the environment. Use safer, more reliable deterrents, or hire a professional wildlife control expert.
