"I hired Bat Masters to exclude my bats. He was professional, knowledgeable, and did a thorough and neat job sealing up the house. Unlike some other excluders, his trap-vents are attractive (and later removed). He also uses invisible sealants where they are visible. He stands behind his work, is local, and knows his stuff. I recommend highly."

"Reliable, responsive, professional company with a team that made a bad pest situation bearable. Arron was professional and knowledgeable, he eliminated the pest issue in the first visit and validated that the pests did not return on follow-up visits. We continue to use Batzner and participate in their seasonal pest control program. They are proactive about scheduling seasonal appointments around our schedule which is awesome. Would recommend Betzner to friends and family without hesitation."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Groundhogs have a strong aversion to powerful scents, including garlic, ammonia, vinegar, hot peppers like cayenne, and predator urine. Various herbs such as rosemary, lavender, basil, mint, sage, thyme, and oregano can also act as deterrents. You can strategically use these odors around your property by planting these crops near your garden and by the entrances to groundhog burrows. Commercially available repellents offer another option, and for best results, scent-based deterrents should be used alongside other preventive measures.

Generally, spring is the best time to hire a pest control service, but it also depends on when you notice the infestation. Insect pest numbers are lower in spring before they hatch, making the extermination and prevention process more manageable as nests and eggs of future pests are eliminated. However, don’t hesitate to hire a pest control specialist when you spot signs of a problem.

While vinegar doesn’t get rid of spider webs that already exist, spraying a mixture of vinegar and water in areas where you’ve found webs before will deter spiders from rebuilding there. The acetic acid within vinegar can harm and kill spiders, so they’ll want to stay as far away from this strong-smelling substance as they can get. 

When threatened or crushed, stink bugs emit a pungent scent often described as smelling similar to cilantro. However, some people say it can smell like sulfur or ammonia. The scent is produced by a gland on their abdomen and some species can spray the scent too.

Although weevils aren’t harmful to humans, it’s best to throw out flour (or any food product) if it contains weevils or other pests. However, if you want to salvage food after finding pests nearby in the pantry, you can freeze it for at least four days. To prevent weevils from returning, make sure to store your food in airtight containers or inside your refrigerator or freezer.
