"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."

"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."

"They are always here on the day they have told us.  The technicians are thorough and friendly.  Being a timeshare, in Wisconsin, in the summer, we have lots of bugs and pests that want to stay with us, but the guys at Safeway make sure they never are around for very long!

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Skunks spray as a defense mechanism to ward off predators. The active ingredient in their sulfurous, oily musk is n-butyl mercaptan, which evaporates into a powerful and smelly gas. Once the spray hits the skunk’s target, the stench can linger for days, and water and common cleaning kits aren’t enough to wash it away.

If you happen upon a skunk in your yard, try to back away slowly to reduce the chance of them aiming at you. Encouragingly, they don’t use their weapon casually, as it can take up to 10 days for their life-saving weaponry to refill. Paw stamping, hissing, lifting their tail, and arching their back are early signs they feel trapped or under threat and that it’s time to make a careful retreat.

Badgers have a strong sense of smell, so it’s possible you can deter them with strong scents, such as applying citronella oil to the bottom of your fence, adding crushed scotch bonnet peppers sprinkled throughout your garden, or mixing both of these into a solution to spray around your home and garden.

If you’re heading outdoors, wear long sleeves and pants to minimize skin exposure. You may also want to wear clothing and any additional gear, like backpacks or tents, treated with 0.5% permethrin. If you’re dealing with fleas at home, you may want to wear insect repellant and vacuum your bed, carpets, and upholstery frequently to minimize fleas.

In addition to a clean home, fleas dislike oils made from plants that are naturally bug-resistant or poisonous to bugs. That includes myrtle, mint, eucalyptus, and especially cedar oil. Common household remedies like baking soda, garlic and apple vinegar don’t have any effect on fleas. Don’t spray essential oils directly on your own skin or your pets (and their bedding, because it can be a skin irritant. Stay away from tea tree oil. In pure form it can be very toxic to pets. Always ask your vet if you have any questions.

Chemical treatments, bait systems, and physical barriers are common approaches.
