"When I learned that VA Wildlife Removal had added "Pest Control" to their services I decided I would try their pest control services. When I called them last week, for an appointment for an inspection to address my pest concerns at my home, they arrived right when they said they would. Being a retired Marine, I recognize professional behavior when I see it. I could tell immediately Will Mills was a true professional. Will took the time to listen to my questions. He made a thorough inside, outside and perimeter inspection to see what the best approach would be for my concerns. He showed me areas that I had no idea were even a problem. He explained very clearly in words I could understand what he recommended we do, how he would do it and the next steps involved for pest management. I can recommend with confidence anyone needing help involving "Wildlife Removal" and "Pest Control". J.P. Montague Sr. MSgt. USMC Retired"
"I had a fantastic experience with Ehrlich Southeast. Their customer service was excellent, from scheduling the appointment to the completion of the service. Their technicians were friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient, and they ensured my property was pest-free. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of pest control services."

"Globe & Anchor Pest Control is locally owned and operated by a retired US Marine. He has a small crew of technicians. His professionalism, courtesy and timeliness are impeccable! Though I have not had the opportunity to see/experience their work, based on the 90+ minute termite inspection and survey, Herley (owner) shows he is well educated, diligent and takes no short-cuts. When it came time to discuss the cost for termite protection for my house, Herley offers a deep military discount (I am retired USAF) and we sealed the deal. HIGHLY Recommended."
"Jim was incredible. He even came back after hours to look for the mouse I spotted. Pest Now provides excellent customer service. They are my new pest control service provider."

Dying trees and even dead trees can spread diseases to other living trees. There are many different types of tree diseases, so it’s essential to address the issue as soon as possible to prevent the disease from spreading to other healthy trees. If the tree cannot be saved and is infected, you need to have it removed to protect the other trees on your property.
Citrus scents such as lemon or lime are lethal to bed bugs. They’re drawn to the smell, but the chemicals often kill them. There are other ways to kill bed bugs without an exterminator, including using steam, DIY heat treatments, essential oils, diatomaceous earth, and more. However, you should hire a professional bed bug exterminator to eliminate large numbers of bed bugs.
Although raccoons aren’t particularly picky regarding food, certain sounds, metals, and smells bother them. You can place these items around your home to keep raccoons away:
Place wire mesh screens around and underneath decks and porches to prevent raccoons from nesting.
Put metal sheeting around the edges of your roof or at the base of trees to deter raccoons from coming close.
Place a loud battery-operated radio near the raccoon’s den to keep them from nesting.
Keep a bowl of cider vinegar on your deck or porch.
Remove old raccoon scents by thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting underneath porches and decks.
Yes, exterminators spray inside kitchen and other cabinets as part of a whole-home pest control treatment, especially when eradicating bugs that like to hide there, like roaches and ants. If you spot a pest infestation in your pantry or cabinets, be sure to show your pest control pro which areas have the most traffic.
