"Scott did and excellent job. He even worked around my crazy schedule. Very professional and knowledge. I would recommend his services to anyone with a pest issue."
"The Pest Control employee arrived earlier than told. He went to work outside and then inside. He asked questions about were the bug problem was the worst. He was very polite and informative."
"They were very prompt getting out here. They listened to my concerns and answered my questions. They did a follow-up when I needed one. I was very comfortable having them here and doing the work."
"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."
"First Choice Pest Control is a great business. Hunter removed three live baby raccoons from our attic on a very hot day. He stayed with it until he succeeded and the cost was very reasonable. Highly recommended!"
"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."
"Eric was completely professional at all times. Small pest problem was taken care of quickly. My wife and I could not be more happy with EV pest Control. I will definitely use them again in the future if needed."
Moisture issues caused by leaky pipes, improper drainage, and poor airflow create environments that are ideal for termites to thrive in. Dampwood termites prefer water-damaged wood while subterranean termites require moist environments to survive. Climate can have an impact as well, with termites preferring to live in warm and humid climates with mild temperatures year-round. However, termites are present in every state in the United States, with the exception of Alaska.
DIY animal removal is rarely a good idea and is not advised for many reasons. First, these types of animals can carry diseases and, therefore, pose a health risk to you, your family, and your pets if mishandled. Second, depending on your city or municipality, it may be illegal to remove or handle wildlife yourself.
Sealing your home against these animals yourself is also a bad idea. Trapping an animal under your house will cause odor and insect problems when it passes away.
Yes, exterminators are a type of pest control professional that is qualified to remove wasps safely and effectively. Exterminators will inspect the wasp problem, administer professional-grade treatments, and apply preventative measures to avoid a future infestation. Consult a local exterminator about your wasp problem as soon as you identify it.
Any tree that emits a sap or resin can attract yellow jackets. They are particularly attracted to the tree of heaven (Ailanthus altissima), which emits a sweet sap that both yellow jackets and spotted lanternflies love.
Flea eggs can’t take heat, so use that information to your advantage. Take any affected clothes and linens and wash them on a hot setting (140℉ or higher) to kill them off. You can also rid carpets and furniture using heat. After vacuuming all surfaces thoroughly, use a steam mop or cleaner to get rid of the remaining flea eggs and residue.
Flea eggs also can’t handle extreme cold. You could seal affected linens and store them in a freezer.
