"We were very pleased with Adrian & Critter Pros service. Very professional and went beyond to provide quality service. He and his team did a great job sealing the entrances so no other critters could get back in."
"We got possibly squirrel in the attic, we can hear their noise and see what has been damaged. The work is still going on. They have come three times."
"I am very happy to give King Pest Solutions a 5 Star review. Their representative, Eric, arrived on time and gave me an overview of what he was going to do to protect our house from termites. Together we walked around the perimeter of my house and he showed me the tools he was going to use and answered all my questions before getting started. The process took about 2 1/2 hours to complete and my home is now protected. Eric was efficient and knowledgeable about the process and, once again, made sure all my questions were answered before leaving. I will certainly continue to work with King Pest Solutions in the future."
"Very knowledgeable guy who seem to know what he’s doing. Don’t know results of spraying. Have had much rain since. Will have to see if it worked. Terminex will spray again the beginning of next month."
"Bandy's Pest Control is professional, pleasant, quick to respond and the owner does the work. I recommend them to everyone! They are local supporters of multiple events and our first responders. Bandy's Pest Control is the best!"
"I have been using them for pest control for two years now. I like the owner of the company. He is straightforward, no nonsense, honest, private, does what you need, and doesn't try to sell extra stuffs. I was highly recommended about them by my friend. They do a good work. They install mosquito systems as well as traditional pest control. Their mosquito system works really well because I do not have mosquitoes and that is worth everything you spend on it. They are reasonably priced, but it's not a bargain. You get what you pay for. They were very responsive."
"I’ve been a customer for a few years now and I am ALWAYS happy with Berrett Pest Control ! They are so friendly and professional from the pest control service agents all the way to the wonderful people at their office! I would highly recommend them"
It’s an age-old and terrifying question: Can rats come through the toilet? The answer, unfortunately, is yes; however, it’s extremely rare. In the very unlikely case that this happens, it’s usually the result of rats from the sewer making their way into home plumbing pipes and up into the toilet.
If you’re wondering whether silverfish can fly, they can’t—they don’t have wings. Instead, they wriggle their bodies and move quickly in a fish-like motion, hence their name. Despite their speed, they are limited to crawling along floors, walls, and ceilings. Silverfish are known for their agility and ability to hide in small cracks and crevices, but they cannot jump or fly.
Rocks are less likely to attract snakes and other critters because their prey (termites, ticks, and other insects) don’t usually inhabit this environment. However, if you have placed together rocks with large spaces in between or near a source of water, you may find a snake or an occasional chipmunk seeking shelter.
Rats are nocturnal creatures, meaning they are most active at night, typically from late evening through the early morning. They use the cover of darkness to explore, forage for food, and find water, as they feel safer and can avoid daytime predators and human activity. Their sharp senses, including keen night vision and hearing, are well-suited for navigating in the dark. Because they prefer to stay hidden during the day in secluded areas like walls or attics, you are more likely to spot signs of their presence—such as droppings or gnaw marks—before you see an actual rat.
Regular lawn care keeps snakes away because it eliminates common hiding places. You can deter snakes by trimming grass, shrubs, and trees and removing weeds from your lawn and gardens. Clear away leaves and other debris that could serve as a potential snake habitat. You can also seal entry points around building perimeters and install metal snake fencing.
