"We had a horrible spider problem at one of our houses. We saw multiple large spiders in our house every day for a long time. Finally we called Aspen and after they treated the house and yard we never saw another spider inside or on the outside of the house. Also very reasonably priced."

"My wife and I moved into our home last Nov. We completed many renovations that included lots of dust and the vents and returns likely were never serviced, at least not for a LONG time. So, I decided that I wanted my vents to be cleaned. After an attempted bait and switch from a FaceBook solicitation, whom was going to WAY overcharge me, and I declined their service, I casually asked my HVAC guy for a recommendation. He said use Powervac, LLC. I had never heard of them, but trust my HVAC guy, so I called. My initial interaction with Mary was great. She was VERY kind, caring, and informative. They were booked out a couple of weeks (for obvious reasons). She had me scheduled out to 6/18 on the calendar and would call me if any cancellations. She ended up calling me 2x to move the date up and here it is 6/12 and the work is complete! It's really a cool process and the two technicians, Jason and Matt, worked hard, communicated very well, had a great sense of humor, and their teamwork was outstanding! Many companies have lost the art of Customer Service. PowerVac, LLC has not and in fact operates like a well oiled machine. Saved me $300 over the FaceBook ad. Highly recommend them!!!"

My Name is Randy and I founded Nature First Pest Control in 1991. My approach, that using chemicals was a last resort, was ridiculed by the rest of the industry. They are not laughing any more. Recently, we were named as one of the 100 most Innovative small businesses in America. We are featured as story #48 at Small Business Revolution. Our “No Hassle” guarantee to you is simple. We will solve your problem, with efficiency and safety while minimizing any impact on you or the environment. I am extremely proud of becoming a GreenPro Certified Service Company for our Rodent control programs.

"Perfect! Professionals. Would hire again, and recommend to my neighbors."

Summit Pest Management is a professional pest exterminator serving Portland and surrounding areas. Summit specializes in pest control, wildlife management, rodent control and commercial pest control.

"Bill was very willing to discuss the issue with me when I contacted him. He was also very knowledgeable about powderpost beetles, which was not true for several other pest management companies I contacted. I arranged to have Bill inspect the window frame and cavity after the window contractor removed it. He was very professional and identified the window frame as the location from which the beetles originated. Bill made several recommendations to the window contractor and took some beetles I had captured back to his office for detailed examination. The same day, he called me back and identified them as Lyctid powderpost beetles. Bill stated his opinion that further treatment of the window cavity was unnecessary. Although the window contractor would have paid Bill's inspection fee ($195) and for any treatment, Bill didn't charge anything! I was both surprised and impressed, and would highly recommend Summit for both professionalism and integrity."

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

In certain cases, yes, the bees may go away on their own, but it’s a risk. Some bee types, such as bumblebees, create seasonal nests and then die out as their new queens seek homes elsewhere. But in most cases, you can’t count on the bees leaving naturally. It’s also not a great idea to leave openings in your walls any longer than you have to, which can attract other pests or cause moisture damage.

You might be tempted to call your local municipality to remove animals from your property, such as a groundhog burrowing in your yard or raccoons getting into your trash cans. However, they typically only remove domestic animals like dogs and cats from properties, or sick and injured wildlife that pose a public safety risk or health threat, such as a rabid animal. They typically do not capture or remove healthy wildlife.

Animal removal professionals have the tools, knowledge, and skills to trap and remove wild animals adequately and humanely. They also can relocate them correctly.

Bees usually have thicker, fuzzy bodies, while wasps have slender, smooth bodies. Behavior and nesting also differ.

Yes, honey bees can sting, but they typically only do it when they feel their hive is threatened. When honey bees are away from their hive, they’re focused on foraging for pollen and nectar, making them unlikely to sting. Only female honey bees, called workers, have stingers, and they will die if they need to use them. Generally, if left undisturbed, honey bees will leave you alone.

If you seal bees in a wall and don’t leave them any way to escape, they may make one of their own. Otherwise, they’ll die inside the wall, and that creates many additional problems. It takes a long time, and the bees will start rotting, which can make your home smell miserable. All the dead bees and any honeycombs they may have created will also attract a number of bugs or other pests to your home. That’s why we suggest removing the bees entirely, and not trying to seal them away.
