"We had a bat flying around the inside of our home. This was late at night. I put the information in on Home Advisor and not longer than a minute my phone rings and it is Norm from All Pest. This mind you is late on Saturday night. I think he even offered to come that night We shut the interior doors and wherever the bat was, we felt we were safe enough for the night. Mind you I slept with one eye open, a broom, and flashlight just in case. Norm said he would call the next day. Sure enough first thing in the morning he called. He told us how much for the visit, which was reasonable based on this was now a Sunday and they were taking their time to come over. Long story short, he did a search of the perimeter of the house along with his son Billie. They were looking for points of entry. Did not find much, but we had one area where an eve overlapped another roof line. Came in and starting looking and behold they found the bat within minutes. Captured bat, put in a container and removed. Then Billie went into the attic to search the area for signs of an infestation. After words he went on the roof, to check for points of entry, even though we found no physical evidence of their existence after the attic search. Needless to say, we feel their service was excellent. In fact it is a role model of what excellent service should be. He responded immediately. Came over on a Sunday morning, and found the bat, which quite frankly I did not expect. This is a big house with lots of nooks and trims that provide plenty of hiding spaces. I do not think I could have found a company that did as good of job as Norm and Billie did. I do not like to rank companies because in todays arena most companies are just not that good at customer service. I give these guys a 5 star rating because we literally could not have gotten faster and results oriented and thorough service from another company the way these two performed. It is with total honesty and accuracy that we give them this rating."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

You’ll find that phorid fly larvae breed in moist, decaying, organic matter. When trying to locate a breeding site, thoroughly inspect the following places in your home: drain pipes, trash cans, garbage disposal, pet waste, rotting produce, plants, compost bins, and even under appliances like the stove and refrigerator where moist food may have dropped. It’s also possible for a breeding site to form inside of a wall, crawl space, or under your home’s foundation.

Squirrels have a strong sense of smell and can be deterred by various scents they dislike. Effective options include peppermint oil, rosemary, garlic, cinnamon, white vinegar, coffee grounds, and predator urine. Squirrels also have a strong aversion to capsaicin, the compound that makes chili peppers hot, making capsaicin-based repellents a good choice for protecting specific areas like gardens or bird feeders. For a DIY solution, you can create a garlic and vinegar spray and apply it daily. Additionally, placing strong-smelling items like certain soaps or dryer sheets near where squirrels frequent can also be effective.

There's anecdotal evidence that apple cider vinegar does help to repel mice. But the best way to repel mice is to keep your home scrupulously clean and seal up any obvious entry points. If you already have a mouse infestation, apple cider vinegar won’t get rid of the critters. It’s usually worth the cost of professional pest control to make sure a serious mouse problem is eradicated completely.

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 truth is you may not be able to get rid of a wasp nest without getting stung unless you hire an insect control specialist. As far as getting rid of wasps with home remedies, a far-reaching commercial spray or an insecticidal dust are your best options with the lowest risk of getting stung. Wearing protective gear can also help minimize stings.
