Neighbors Pest Solutions is a notably professional pest control company that provided me with cost-effective services for my residence. They specialize in eradicating a variety of pests. Following weeks of dealing with ant and spider infestations at the onset of these warm summer months, my property is now on track to be free from the issue.
Unlike many companies that tend to oversell and suggest unnecessary additions, I was pleasantly surprised by Josh Davis, who presented a personalized solution tailored to my home's needs. Will update soon on the progress.

Derek knocked on our door the same day we had happened to find a massive spider in our daughter's toy box. Perfect timing! He was very patient with us and answered all of my questions about toxicity of the pesticide products (we have a 16 month old daughter and a cat). Albert showed up to perform the service a few days later. He was very professional and notified me a few minutes prior to arriving to my home. He made sure to close the gates after he was finished as I'd mentioned that was a concern since my daughter is a little runaway and he again assured me that once everything dried, it would be safe for my daughter to play outside. Albert explained everything he did and what we may expect over the next few days/weeks. Hoping this makes a difference in the webs all over our backyard and the earwigs in our rose beds!

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
The more you know about stink bugs, the better you can predict and control their behavior. Here are some quick facts to help you on your way.
Stink bugs are not harmful to humans, but they can be a nuisance when they enter homes in large numbers in search of shelter. They do not bite or sting, but their defensive odor can be unpleasant.
To get rid of stink bugs in your home, seal any cracks or gaps in walls or windows, and use screens on doors and windows to prevent them from entering. If stink bugs are already inside, remove them with a vacuum cleaner or by trapping them in a container and releasing them outside. Crushing stink bugs should be avoided, as this will release their unpleasant odor.
Stink bugs can damage gardens and crops by feeding on plants, using their sharp mouthparts to pierce the plants and suck out the juices. Large infestations of stink bugs can cause significant damage to crops.
Stink bugs invade homes in search of shelter from the colder temperatures outside. They are attracted to warmth and light and will often congregate on the sunny side of a home or near windows.
To prevent stink bugs from entering your garden or crops, use row covers to physically exclude them, and remove any weeds or other plants that may attract stink bugs. Insecticides may also be used, but they are often ineffective against stink bugs due to their tough exoskeleton.
