"VERY Prompt. I received a call from Petti Pest Control within minutes of my inquiry. Robert was at my house later that day for an inspection and consultation. Since outdoor ladder work was required, the job was scheduled for the first dry day. The team arrived when scheduled. Logan, the technician, explained what they were going to be doing and how they were taking into consideration the fact that I had pets. They were quick, efficient and neat. I heartily recommend Petti Pest Contol."

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Bed bugs are most active when we are most inactive, typically from 2 a.m. until 5 a.m. They are cunning, and adjust their schedules according to their victims. If you work at night, for instance, your bed bugs will flip the script.

Silverfish can infest a bed, but it’s not likely unless you have a major infestation. Silverfish may be attracted to the fabric of the bed and the dark corners of the mattress, so you should check your bed thoroughly if you are seeing silverfish throughout the house. Seeing them in bed is a bad sign, because it means they are eating your cotton or silk sheets while they’re there.

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.

Professional pest control works faster than any DIY method, so it’s the way to go if you want your pest problem gone ASAP. A basic treatment can take place in under six hours, while larger fumigations may take up to a week. You should start noticing a significant reduction in pests within a couple of days, with full results in about a week on average.

If you’re wondering whether bug candles can keep flies away, the answer is yes (and this goes for fruit flies and many other types of flies. However, most bug candles contain citronella, which isn’t suitable for indoor use. This is because the fumes are strong and can leave a strong scent on walls and objects.
