Rodents are very difficult pests to completely rid from your property. Rats and mice especially are very resilient animals that can fit through very small gaps in your walls and floors. Gaps under and behind kitchen cabinets are particularly attractive, as they are close to food and water. Rats and mice are highly social, curious, nocturnal animals that will gain access into homes and businesses. Mice can fit through openings as small as the size of a dime. While they have a place in nature, the damage rats and mice can cause and the health risks they pose make them very hazardous pests.
Wasps and yellowjackets are very common in Hampton Roads, building their nests in almost any shielded but accessible location. Common locations for wasp nests are attics, under porches, and in sheds and garages. Wasp nests start out small, but can grow to the size of a basketball, or even larger if not removed within a few weeks. The larger the wasp or yellowjacket nest, the more wasps you will have flying around your house or yard. Although wasps won't usually attack a person unless they approach or threaten them or their nest, the more wasps there are increases the risk of stinging.
