"Replied promptly, very courteous, very professional, found & removed dead bird from clothes dryer, good clean-up, reasonably priced. I plan to use him in the future."
"Adrien was so helpful! We definitely plan on going with Critter Pro if we ever have a pest problem. Especially if your technicisions are all as knowledgeable, professional and kind as Adrien was with us. Y’all are basically on speed dial after that phone call I just had with Adrien."
"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."
"It went great. Bennett is very professional, punctual and friendly. He knows what he is doing and explains what needs to be done and why. Very good prices and extremely fast. I will definitely be calling him again for monthly pest control."
"The technitian was punctual & professional and for the most part have sound advice regarding our rodent problem. However the extermination services were lacking as he only set up 4 sticky boards and one trap enclosure with little or no poison (I checked the trap the following day and it was empty of both rodents and poison and there was no sign of a dead rodent anywhere in the garage or within a 15 ft radius of it.) Additionally, the "exclusion" part of the deal I purchased through AL was completely ignored even after specifically pointing out the obvious point of entrance and asking it be addressed. I was able to get rid of 2 rodents using the sticky boards but had to hire another professional to set better/more traps in order to get the rest of them; 5 total. Overall not the worse service for the price but I prefer not having to hire multiple professionals to address one problem."
"They're good, I have no complaints, I have no bugs see coming, they are prompt, wonderful and it's worth the money and I would recommend them to anybody and the man who came is very nice and very pleasant."
"I was very pleased with their prompt response and expertise on the humane removal of our pest. They covered all the gaps in the tile/metal roof overhangs. Outstanding job by Ginx!!!"
You can find a variety of humane bird repellent sprays online and at home improvement stores. However, if you want to try a DIY method that will keep birds away without harming them, mix some water, dish soap, and a few drops of peppermint oil and spray the area you want bird-free. Peppermint oil is a notoriously lovely smell for humans, but birds tend to avoid it.
To keep animals out, you must prevent them from entering. As long as they can get in, the problem will persist. That said, consider making your attic less inviting using deterrents like motion-activated lights or ultrasonic devices. Additionally, keeping a well-maintained, clean, and uncluttered attic that you regularly inspect for activity may make the space less attractive to critters.
Woodpeckers peck at the break of dawn and take a break whenever the sun is not shining. On sunny days, expect pecking from dawn to dusk. On cloudy days, expect sporadic pecking when the sun peeks through. These birds are most active in the spring; you’ll hear them drumming as soon as the weather turns warm.
Many different types of animals like to build nests in attics. The types may vary depending on your home’s condition and location and you can prevent them by sealing off entry points and eliminating food sources.
The most common critters that like to build nests in your attic include:
Raccoons
Bats
Squirrels
Mice
Rats
Once the animals and their young are out of the house, remove the nest and locate any entry points. Some may be difficult to find because some animals can fit through very small holes. Once you’ve located as many entry points as possible, use materials such as metal or masonry to block off the entry. Ideally, you should choose materials that most animals cannot chew through. Create a one-way door or flap to allow animals to leave but not return. Additional methods include using repellants designed to make an area unappealing to the types of animals that find your home so inviting.
