    Pest & Bed Bug Exterminators New York City | Ehrlich Pest … - June 21, 2018 by Mr HomeBuilder

    As one of the worlds most popular travel destinations, New York City has recently seen an explosion in bed bug activity in buildings like hotels and homes. Bed bugs are very hard to see and difficult to remove without professional tools and expertise.

    If you live in an apartment building and one apartment experiences a bed bug infestation, it can quickly lead to other apartments within the building becoming infested. That's why it's crucial for New York residents to partner with a reliable bed bug removal company like Ehrlich.

    The brownish insects multiply very quickly and are highly resilient, even to some pesticides. A treatment that leaves only a few bed bugs alive can lead to a re-infestation. Bed bugs are not just found in beds. The pests can also hide just about anywhere:

    Effective bed bug removal takes specialized skill and training to make sure all pests are eliminated. The Ehrlich NYC team uses the latest methods and technology to get rid of bed bugs such as Entotherm heat treatments. We also have bed bug dogs that can find the insects wherever they hide.

    Let us help you with any concerns you may have about bed bugs. Call us today and tell us about your bed bug removal needs. Hire the pest control professionals New York property owners rely on, Ehrlich.

    BUGCO Pest Control – Richmond, TX – Yelp - October 19, 2017 by Mr HomeBuilder

    284

    Very professional and courteous service at all levels that I have dealt with, totally paperless (!!!), Knowledgable about sources and types of insects and how to prevent them. Didn't seem too bothered by my current renovation-in-progress. I feel more than fine about keeping a maintenance plan with BUGCO.

    totally Digital , paperless company Awesome They use a dry insecticide they broadcast like seedsthe nice young man Trey was really helpful, answered questions, was not deterred or intimidated by by clutter of cats.

    Excellent service! I found Bugco on yelp and chose it because of the good reviews. It was a pleasant surprise to see when the truck arrived that it was connected to Top2Bottom home inspections. I have done at least 7 home inspections with Top2Bottom. John Onofrey and his team are knowledgeable, honest, fair and do good work. That's why I keep going back to them for inspections. It was a great feeling to see that Bugco is owned by John as well.Daniel at Bugco did a great job and was a pleasure to work with. I'm excited to have found a good extermination company I can trust to do good work. Now, anyone know a good electrician and plumber???

    *Repeat Customer*Maintenance plan is so worth it... less headache and stress.Let me start by saying I'm very frugal and terrified of all insects, spiders, etc. I'm typically a "do it yourself type", but the bugs were truly taking over and I couldn't take it.These folks are simply the best! The technicians are on time, fast, efficient, and polite.Germaine arrived on time, friendly, and informative, and considerate in regards to knocking down all the wasps nests/hotels that had took over my atrium. He began working immediately, and was very thorough and efficient. He taught me the proper name of the insects I was running from. He educated me on the plants that look nice but were actually attracting the insects. Great company, service, and employees. Thanks Germaine! A+

    Daniel was awesome. He explained what chemicals he was using and what they were for. He had a great personality. I'll continue to use them in the future.

    Always on time and sometimes early but they always call first. No problem with bugs since they have come. We have them out quarterly. We have also had lawn treatment which works well, and they have worked at our church in Oak Forest too. Staff is friendly, professional, knowledgable and answers any questions you may have when they arrive. I'd highly recommend them!

    I found BUGCO on the yelp app. Based on the reviews I decided to give them a try. After Hurricane Harvey we were having fire ants issues around the house. I received a phone call back the same day that I left a message. The representative was friendly and very thorough in explaining the services offered. Within the next couple days Justin came to our home. He was friendly and prompt. He inspected our home and yard and recommended a yard treatment based his findings. The extermination did not take long at all. He moved through the home quickly and did the outside area in no time. I highly recommend their services.

    We got some rats at home and it scared the hell out of me. So I called in to make an appointment. They are supper fast to come to your house to help you. And they give you a lot of advise on how to prevent and deal with situation like that.Both of the agent did Very impressive work and we got rid of the rats almost right after. Highly recommend it.

    Some pest control places will just come by, "spray", and be gone, even for a 1st time visit. That is not the way to develop a repeat customer. Today, BUGCO demonstrated they understand that customer's determine their success and made me a repeat customer. The technician, Daniel, took the time to look at the "sample" of bugs I had been seeing, showed me how they were just the same bug but at different stages on their life cycle, AND walked me through my house to show me exactly where they could be entering. I've gotten pest control treatments across the country and have NEVER had the rep take the time to explain and show anything. It demonstrated to me that they know what they are doing and take pride in their work and company. Thank you Daniel for showing TRUE Customer Service!

    Very thorough and professional, he went through every room and every corner with the spray, into cabinets and places where he suspected entry of insects and also into the attic, garage and outside perimeter of my home. He was knowledgeable and gave advice to seal up areas where insects may be able to enter. He explained the 3 layer system which helps prevent insects for 90 days and the guarantee for 90 days, he also offered his card if there were any questions or if for any reason I forgot to mention any areas that needed treatment. So far there have been minimal incidents of bugs and happy to say that the pesticide and 3 layer system is far more effective than the 2 prior companies I used! Very happy with service and customer friendly support. Thank you!

    We cannot say enough good things about this company. Our initial research showed that Bugco has an outstanding online reputation so we contacted them for an initial consultation on general pest control and an existing misting system. The people in the office were friendly and answered all of our questions. The good experience continued when Germaine (our service technician) appeared. Very cordial and respectful of our home (he wore shoe covers which I loved). The most important thing is that the bugs are under control and our misting system is up and running. Germaine has truly exceeded our expectations in keeping bugs down in Texas! We signed up for their quarterly service and have no regrets. Another satisfied customer indeed.

    Brooke came and serviced our home today. He was awesome. Our original guy had canceled and they were going to have to reschedule our appointment but Brooke added us to his route and came out to help us after he was already done with his day, and he came and helped us anyways, after hours! He was super knowledgeable and really took care of us and gave us all kinds of tips on how to keep critters away. Definitely will continue to use Bugco for all of our extermination needs and we hope we get Brooke every time!

    Great for all your exterminating needs! I called them to get rid of fleas that my pets brought in, and they came that same week and tested my house twice for a very reasonable price. No more fleas so I'm very happy!! Definitely recommend them!

    This is my second time getting service from Bugco Pest Control. Amazing service today from Daniel. I appreciate the call before getting to my home and the wonderful service he provided while in my home. Daniel explained everything to me in detail and took his time to show me little modifications I can make around my home to help with the bugs not getting in my home. Thanks Bugco for keeping my home bug/roach/ant free! Thanks Daniel.

    I had an original contract with John Moore for pest control and I never met the guy who came to spray our house. I considered their service horiffic at best. I paid off my final payment with them this morning and was looking forward to getting my first visit from a different pest control company. I just got my first visit from BugCo and Justin was our technician. He couldn't have been more professional, knowledgeable or truly dedicated to performing his craft. It's such a huge difference when you work with a company who specializes in one thing and they do it extremely well. I'm looking forward to solving the pest problem in my house and I have the fullest of confidence that BugCo will address any needs that I might bring up. It's an outstanding outfit so far.

    Before I contacted Bugco , I had what was becoming a bad roach infestation . After the first initial visit Ineqs very well informed of what should be expected , I've had two visits so far and my what a big difference it's made .... I'm very happy that I contacted Bugco and would definitely recommend them to other people .

    We had another service come out and treat. The tech from that other company, while polite, was not thorough about treating all windowsills (he only did a few), almost forgot to treat upstairs despite me asking him to, did not answer any of my questions, and did not treat all the areas I had questions about, telling me that they weren't necessary.Bugco, on the other hand, asked where we had seen pests, was thorough without us having to asking him to treat any area, identified what he found so we knew what bugs we were dealing with, and answered all questions! On top of it, he was a great conversationalist, had a sense of humor and was very polite. He also had several suggestions on where we could make some improvements to prevent pests from getting into the house.Very happy and will have BUGCO back again!

    They are just awesome!!! Daniel my service person is always very thorough in answering my questions and explains reasoning behind how and why I am seeing certain bugs in my house. He is very detailed and even pointed out I should change out my misting system cap as I need to keep the system water free. No sale pressure. When I couldn't find a cap online he said he could help me order one and put it in for me. My previous mosquito service company (mosquito management company) was horrendous. They overcharge me on work never done properly and never answer calls. Bugco office always answers my calls and are efficient and courteous. The whole experience just feels easy and i can completely trust that their work is done properly. Thank you bugco! You have a loyal customer!

    This company does a great job. They always ask about any issues we may have and explain what services they will provide. We highly recommend their services. Do no go with the door to door guys.Go Penguins!

    I was extremely happy with this service. My tech Justin called to let me know when he would be here. He was very thorough, professional, and friendly. He explained everything very well and I appreciated his suggestions. I signed up for quarterly services. I may have found my new pest control provider.

    Buy Pest Control Products at Best Price – Pestmall - October 19, 2017 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Q. silver fish, ants, carpet beetles and centipides

    is there one chemical that i can use for all of the above. the ants are coming thru the windows. when i spray the window sills, the paint has begun to come off. do i just move?

    A. Suspend SC is an insecticide that will kill all the listed target pests. We would like you to keep in mind though, that sometimes, depending on the pest, it will require more specific treatment like baiting. Suspend SC can be applied to the outside perimeter so that you can create a barrier to keep them from entering the structure.

    Q. Does Merit 0.5 granules kill chinch bugs? Is it legal to use it in Quebec Canada? When is the best time to kill the chinch bugs with this product?

    A. Merit 0.5 Granules are more for the suppression of chinchbugs. The best time to kill the chinchbugs is during the heat of the day when they are the most active. Please check with the appropriate agencies in Quebec to see if the product is registered for use.

    Q. What is the best external house spray to kill insects around the foundation of my home? I live in Tucson, AZ.

    A. Lambdastar is a very good product to use around the house. It is made of vegetable oil and one of our more eco-friendly products. The liquid concentrate should be mixed with water in the proportions listed on the label and may be used both indoors and outdoors for area treatment.

    Q. does boricacid kill bedbugs

    A. Boric Acid is typically an ingestion poison. Since the only food source for bed bugs is blood, we cannot say that Boric Acid will be an effective product for bed bug control. Contact kill products like sprays and dust are the most effective. If you have any further questions or comments, please feel free to contact us again.

    Q. DO YOU HAVE BEES SUITS AVAILABLE

    A. Yes, you can find all of our bee suits on this page: http://www.pestmall.com/bee-suits/

    Q. products to kill noseeum bugs

    A. Noseeums, also known as biting midges can be treated with Onslaught.

    Q. do your own pest control

    Hi I am looking for something that is very GOOD QUALITY THAT i CAN USED TO SPRAY AROUND OUTSIDE OF HOME AND AROUND OUTSIDE NEAR POOL TO KEEP ALL THE SPIDERS AND ANTS AWAY, i DO NOT WANT ANOTHER CONTRACT WITH ORKIN JUST TO EXPENSIVE DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING THAT IS CONTRACTOR GRADE THAT IS NOT TO EXPENSIVE THAT WORKS. THANKS

    A. Lambdastar is a great general insecticide that will kill both spiders and ants. Also, this product can be used both indoors and outdoors as long as the treated area is left alone to dry before contact.

    Q. do my own pest control

    I have a few pests that have infested in the home I recently bought. It is an older house (1938) with hollow walls, hollow ceiling cavity between 1st and second level, open ceiling in basement and hollow block walls for the walk out basement walls.Infestations of centipeedes, ants, brown recluse spiders (have killed 75 with sticky traps) and Ive found termites in basement wood. When I ground out the cracks in my basement I had termite tunnels coming out of the cracks after 1 night.The house sat empty during the previous owners remodel for about 3 yrs. This gave a great head start on the insect's occupancy.Wanting the best stuff on the market with longest residual to apply in uncommon locations as well as surface treatments.I'm going to drill holes in the concrete block and saturate the ground and block inside the wall, drilling holes in the wood siding to saturate inside the walls.

    A. Thank you for contacting us. For termites and brown recluse spiders, you will need a separate method of control.All other crawling insects can be controlled with a liquid concentrate that is a broad spectrum general pest control product. Something like TEMPO SC will work or Lambdastar 9.7.Since brown recluse spiders are known for not cleaning themselves, usually, insecticides will not work. Sticky traps are the best way to control them. However, insecticides like the ones mentioned above, may slow them down or effect them and work over a long period of time.Termite control really depends on the specific species of termites. If you have a subterranean termite problem, outdoor ground treatment is necessary as well as treatment to the isolated area of infestation. Premise Foam is good for indoor treatment to isolated areas of infestation and Termidor is a great product for outdoor trenching/ground treatment.

    Q. when insouthwest florida to spraytengard for fleas in back yard?

    A. You can start spraying now, because the season is getting warmer, and insects are beginning to emerge. There's not a specific given time for insecticides like herbicides. You simply need to apply when you are beginning to see the pests.

    Q. general pest control

    I was wondering what do you best recommend for general (inside & outside) pest control..Talstar One or Suspend SC ??Thanks!(Ah!.. There's not many 100% POSITIVE feedback out there.. Good work!)

    A. We recommend Suspend SC because it contains a higher percentage of the active ingredient.

    Rodent Control - October 19, 2017 by Mr HomeBuilder

    The word rodent means to "to gnaw". We will mostly be discussing the type of rodents called "commensal rodents". The word commensal means"sharing one's table". The three types of commensal rodents are: the House Mouse, the Norway Rat and the Roof Rat.

    The three types of commensal rodents are: the House Mouse, the Norway Rat and the Roof Rat. Occasionally, the white-footed mouse, deer mouse, harvest mouse, pocket mouse, or pack rats may enter buildings, particularly if they are near wooded areas or fields.

    Commensal Rodent Identification

    Rodents can be found not only in our homes, but supermarkets, restaurants, warehouses, food processing facilities, livestock facilities, and farm fields.They also cause damage to our buildings by their burrowing and gnawing activity. Rodents will gnaw through many types of materials in order to reach a location including lead sheathing, cinder block, aluminum siding and some concrete.

    Through the ages, rodents have been the cause of some tremendous plagues and diseases. In years past, rodents were responsible for the spread of many diseases. Today, due to increased sanitation and effective rodent and insect control programs, the threat of most diseases from rodents is not as critical. The common House mouse is the most common health pest, due to allergins that it spreads causing asthma and allergic rhinitis. The mouse carries a protein it its blood that can trigger these reactions in suspectible people.

    In the southwestern part of the United States, the hanta viruses have been active. Most of these cases have been attributed to the cotton rat and white-foot mice, although the Norway rat has been associated with various hanta virus strains.

    The house mouse is about 1/2 -1 oz in size and is slender. The roof rat is 5-9 oz and is sleek and the norway rats is larger and more robust and is between 7-18 oz in weight. Roof rats are often mistaken for house mice. Young roof rats have larger heads and feet in comparison to their bodies. A house mouse's head and feet are proportionally smaller than their bodies.

    Mice and Rats reproduce rapidly with major activity at night. Under stable conditions rodent movement for both rats and mice is limited.

    A Norway or Roof rat will move within a diameter of 98 to 164 ft. and a house mouse,10 to 33 ft. If conditions are unstable or there are changes such as new building, they may expand the diameter. They may also expand their range in protected areas such as in sewers, in passages between buildings, and under groundcovers.

    Read More : Table Of Commensal Rodents is a chart to summarize the differences between rats and mice. This becomes critical if you choose trapping as an option.You need to choose the proper size.

    You will want a complete rodent elimination to occur before the rodents move to another area. A successful rodent control program includes a combination of baiting and trapping for the highest rate of success. However, if the rodent population is large, begin with a high quality rodent bait, in order to quickly knock down a population and prevent rapid growth.

    We offer traps and mice for both mice control and for rat control programs.

    When baiting initially, try not to disturb their original habitats or they may run to another area. After baiting has begun, continue with sanitation procedures, food source removal, and harborage removal to ensure additional rodents from nearby areas are not attracted to your location.

    Choosing the right size trap is critical for trapping rodents. Inspect for signs of rat activity or mice activity. If you have rats and select mice traps the traps would be too small (the trapping mechanism would not be sufficient for a rat). If you have mice and choose rat traps, the traps would be too large (not sensitive enough to trigger the trap) for the body weight of a mouse.

    One of the ways to tell the difference between rats or mice are their feces. View House Mouse, Norway Rats, and Roof Rats to read more about their identification and differences. If you have mice, you will discover a lot of droppings. They look like small beads.

    Most people that begin a trapping program, do not set out enough traps. Place traps in the area of rodent activity and signs of infestation. If you have mice, place the traps a couple feet apart in the area of activity. If you have rats, place the traps about 15-20 apart.

    Consider integrating any rodent control program with exclusion techniques, a general cleanup, and removal of their hiding places(harboraging areas.)

    Rodent Inspections, Rodent Exclusion, and Sanitation measures are critical in rodent control measures.
