"Service was great. I used Pest Now in Northern Virginia for many years and was very happy with them. Recently moved to Richmond and was very glad to find they service this area. "
"I was pleased with Bradford Pest Control and the work that was done. Ray was not only on time but early for the appointment. When Ray had to come in the house to spray for ants he removed his shoes so dirt, grass, etc would not be tracked through the house. I would recommend this company and use them again."
"Michael, the owner, knows both the pest control business as well as the financial and business ends of the his company. My initial desire was to hire Sigma to deal with a LARGE hornet infestation which had moved from the siding and other wrapping through the insulation and sheet rock into my home. I had killed about 150 hornets before I called Michael. Final total was over 1,000 (by actual count !!). Sigma will be removing the sheet rock and removing the colony from my wall before we repair, reseal, close and repaint the wall."
Hawks might seem like fearless predators, but these smart birds do know what other animals to be cautious around. Hawks are naturally wary of humans and predators that see them or their eggs as a potential meal or threat. This list includes owls, crows, eagles, and even snakes or raccoons.
Carpenter bees do not make honey like honey bees, but they are still essential pollinators. In fact, they have a unique talent called "buzz pollination," in which they use the vibration from their wings to help release pollen from the flowers' anthers. Honey bees are also vital pollinators but do not use this process because they are too small and lack the strength required to buzz pollinate.
Termites are most active and cause the most damage in the spring and summer, when warm temperatures and increased moisture accelerate their activity. This is also when swarming typically occurs, allowing colonies to expand. However, termites remain active year-round, especially in warmer climates or heated homes. An established colony can continue to damage wood 365 days a year, even during cold weather.
No, you don’t necessarily need a flea bomb in every room of your home, but that largely depends on the level of infestation you have. A single fogger can likely treat most of your space, unless you have a lot of square footage to cover. However, you may need to use one or more per room depending on your needs, which an exterminator can likely determine.
There are several things to consider before you hire a professional exterminator:
Do they have the proper licensing?
Are they experienced?
Do they use eco-friendly products?
Are their products pet safe?
These are questions to ask yourself when you’re on the hunt for an ant exterminator, but you can also ask the exterminator or pest control company directly.
