Saw some little critters dropping down from the eaves and inside near a sliding door.
I would prefer spot treatment, but I'm sure there's more that I don't see, and will go with a whole house routine.
A few questions....
I'll call 3-4 pest control companies for prices & reference. Anyone recommend questions to ask them?
What's the current pesticides to use or stay away from? I'm in California.
What about cold/freeze or heat treatment? Orange oil? Other methods?
If I go with the fumigation/tent method, I know they blow out the place afterwards for a period of time.
I would not mind paying extra to leave the blowers on a few more days. What's the recommendation for purge time?
Thanks folks!!!
