"Ginx was a great resource in evicting some very determined ring-tailed cats from my attic. My roof is very steep and complex, and they were able to identify the entrances and seal them up. Three other pest control companies were not successful in finding the entrances. Excellent follow-up to ensure there were no more issues. Highly recommend."
"The work and customer service is top tier. I had an issue with raccoons in my attic and a hole in my roofing that needed closing that I had no idea how I was gonna get to. Adrian showed up and had that thing closed so fast I couldn’t believe it! He also trapped the raccoons and assured me that they will humanly release them back into the wild. Overall I give 5 out of 5 stars… I highly recommend!"
"I had an emergency with raccoons having invaded my attic causing failure of air conditioning and damage to ductwork. The next day the company was out to evaluate and schedule a sealing of the house with one way trap installed to prevent reentry. Bait canisters were placed for any possible rodent activity. Weekly checks of bait canisters to see if active and thankfully all raccoons had exited the attic rapidly so ductwork could be repaired/replaced. The workmanship was very professional and appointment times were met. The company allowed the sealing of house to force raccoons out of attic ahead of their normal routine of rodent removal first to accommodate my need to get an HVAC company rapidly to be able to cool the house during hottest summer of many years. I was initially attracted to the companyâ s webpage because of being family owned and veterans which I soon learned were all former Navy Seals. This afternoon the final seal of the house was performed and Iâ m hopeful that all is well in the attic again. If there are any signs of a problem the work is guaranteed for a year and that brings peace of mind as although the cost is fair it is still expensive for a retired senior. I would recommend this company highly to anyone having similar serious problems. The local San Antonio branch of Guaranteed Rodent removal and pest control personnel are comfortable to have in your home and that was a big plus for me."

"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"
"Jacob responded quickly to my request for a quote. He called me and we talked about my termite situation. Based on our conversation he gave me a quote and said he could come out to look at the problem and confirm it if I wanted him to. He came out and looked at the job and confirmed his quote and we made an appointment for him to complete the work. Jacob is very knowledgable and pleasant to deal with and did a great job. I highly recommend South Texas Pest Control."
Trapping is generally not recommended, as even gentle traps can become as inhumane as kill traps if a rabbit is caught and stuck for several days. Additionally, capturing one rabbit isn’t likely to prevent other rabbits from wandering your yard. If you choose this method, it's essential to use live traps designed for humane capture and release of the rabbits in a suitable, safe habitat far from your property. Be sure to set a reminder and check the trap at least twice per day.
No, mice do not become rats. While their similarities may make them appear to be the same animal at first, they are distinct in their appearance, behaviors, and the strategies used to remove them. Juvenile rats that have not reached their full adult size may be roughly the same size as mice, making them hard to tell apart.
Whether you, your dog, or your cat has been sprayed, Poison Control recommends using a solution of 1 quart of 3% (household strength) hydrogen peroxide, ¼ cup of baking soda, and 1 teaspoonful of liquid dish detergent mixed together and immediately applied to the sprayed fur or skin to get rid of skunk smell. After leaving it on for five minutes, rinse with water. If your eyes get sprayed, rinse for at least 15 minutes with room-temperature water.
Like many animals, gophers are bothered by strong scents. Peppermint oil, eucalyptus oil, and coffee grounds can be used as deterrents against these pests. Similarly, you can try planting lavender, rosemary, sage, geraniums, or pine trees, as these plants all have strong smells that can ward away gophers. While it may be less pleasant to work with, coyote urine scares gophers by tricking the pests into thinking your yard is a predator hot spot.
The number of treatments required to eliminate bed bugs varies depending on the severity of the infestation. Most cases require two to four treatments within a three- to six-week span. However, a small infestation might only need one inspection and one treatment visit. In contrast, severe cases or large homes may require an ongoing plan with quarterly, monthly, or semi-monthly visits from an exterminator for up to a year. To get rid of bed bugs as quickly as possible, it's best to investigate and treat them at the first sign of an issue.
