"Had an ant problem for years got them in last year and haven?t seen an ant since. This year added my shop in plan and absolutely love it no more flys beetles or spiders it amazing HIGHLY RECOMMEND"
"Staff was courteous and prompt for a one time service. The treatment was only partially successful. One hornet nest was inactive after one day. The second nest is still active four days after treatment. I will probably not use a pest service in the future. It is not economical for me."
"Very knowledgeable guy who seem to know what he’s doing. Don’t know results of spraying. Have had much rain since. Will have to see if it worked. Terminex will spray again the beginning of next month."
"I wasn't sure what the issue was when I first called Chris. He was able to pinpoint the issue (mice) and the entry points into my home they were using. He then set a series of traps to verify they were indeed mice. Chris was honest and up front about his prices and services. He came back to check the traps to verify it was a mice issue, returning as many times as necessary until the mice were gone. He even gave me a separate quote for sealing the entry points and sanitizing the areas the mice were in, giving me the choice to have him do as much or as little work as I felt was necessary. He performed the work above and was at my house when promised. I would recommend Chris and Bauer Wildlife and Pest Solutions to anyone who is having issues."
"Recently I discovered that I had a racoon issue. I contacted a company
that offers this service and they informed me that they could not
address my issue for 2 weeks. I then contacted EV'S large pest control.
Eric the owner stated he would be out to my residence the following day
since he was in my area on another job. Trap was set four racoons have
been caught which seemed to halt my issue. EV'S is a fantastic and
very personable company to work with. I would highly recommend
them for there outstanding work performance."
"Paul is reassuringly genuine and knowledgeable! We talked at length about mouse issues. I was convinced of his expertise and sincerity and that he means to bring a quality service to you at a reasonable value WITHOUT a CONTRACT like so many of the big pest control companies push. Because I have 2 indoor/outdoor cats, I'm trying a "humane pest control" provider recommended by my veterinarian first. If their methods don't work, I would trust Paul to do the job that needs to get done. He was expedient in responding to my call for help!"
"Brandon Stowe : Went above finding the root cause of issues rather than temporary solutions. Attention to details very friendly, reasonably priced highly recommended."
Yes, integrated pest management uses less harmful methods and focuses on prevention.
Both insects can damage wood, but there are key differences between termites and carpenter ants that tell them apart. Carpenter ants tunnel through moist wood, leaving behind smooth tunnels and sawdust-like piles, as they don't eat the wood but rather carve it for nesting. In contrast, termites actually consume wood, creating irregular galleries filled with mud and dirt, and leaving behind mud tubes as their signature. In terms of appearance, carpenter ants have segmented bodies with heart-shaped heads and larger front wings, while termites have more oval bodies with straight antennae and equal-sized wings.
Due to the high temperatures used during heat treatments, many things must be removed from the area. The most vital things to ensure you remove are living things like pets and plants. To prevent damage to your belongings, you should also remove items such as electronics, flammable products, food, and anything else that the heat may damage.
Seeing a rat or two isn’t uncommon, especially in mild climates. That doesn’t mean they are actively a danger to your home. The problem is when you start seeing rats regularly in your yard, there’s a good chance they are also looking for ways to get into your house or other buildings. All they need is a small hole or gap, and they have a new place to nest -- which is bad news for you. Stay cautious if you start seeing rats in your yard all the time.
You can use commercial repellents to help deter rodents, but they often have mixed results. A better solution is preventing rodents from getting under your home in the first place. Using steel wool or foam sealer, plug all potential entry points like gaps and cracks in the foundation.
Also, consider installing hardware cloth or wire mesh over vents, utility openings, and any openings under the porch or foundation. Regular inspections and maintenance will aid in early detection and prevention, ensuring a rodent-free environment beneath your house.
