Sterling Fife and his small family opened the first branch of Fox Pest Control in Oxford, CT servicing the people across the state of Connecticut.
Ever seen the movie "Arachnophobia?" If you have, you probably have a flashback to it every time you feel something crawling on your arm. Sometimes, it's just your imagination, but it's not those "sometimes" that you're worried about; it's the other times when you look down to see a REAL eight-legged creature scurrying up your leg. Thankfully, "Arachnophobia" is an exaggerated and unrealistic representation of spiders. However, Fox Pest Control thinks it's important to protect your family from spiders, no matter how deadly.
If you hear scratching and thumping coming from your walls or ceiling, there's a good chance you have squirrels in your house. Squirrels may make squeaking noises, rustling, scratching, or gnawing sounds at any time of the day, sometimes even at night. Since they tend to be territorial, they might fight one another for food, dominance, mates, or nesting grounds. Squirrels can cause vast amounts of damage. Not only can their waste seep through your ceiling and walls, they can also chew through sensitive electrical cables, which could result in fire.
Even hearing the word "rodent" is enough to make some people shudder. You probably picture a furry, dirty creature with two long front teeth. Or the disgusting Rodent of Unusual Size from "The Princess Bride." Well, the first description is definitely closest to reality. Thankfully, you're not going to be attacked by a giant, man-eating rodent, but that doesn't mean you want the real creatures scurrying around your house. Don't worry - Fox Pest Control wants to help. The first sign of a mouse or rat infestation is their droppings.
Watching wasps fly over your head puts a damper on any summer day. Summer is the time to enjoy barbeques, family gatherings and fun with friends. It's not fun worrying about being stung or bitten by unwelcome wasps. Once you see one, all you want is for it to go away! Fox Pest Control wants you to enjoy your summer and leave your home and yard feeling safe and comfortable. We come back regularly throughout the year to ensure the Wasps don't come back. If you see any wasp activity between your regularly scheduled service, simply give us a call.
After wildlife pests, insects, or rodents are removed from inside your property, how can you be sure they won't get in again? A pest already found its way in once. Why not twice? If you find the source of the problem, you can lower the chances of having a wild animal, insect, or other pest enter home again. That's where Fox Pest Control comes in. We do the dirty work to keep you safe and comfortable in your home. You might already know for sure that you have a recurring pest problem. But here are a couple of signs that you can benefit from Exclusion Services in Connecticut.
Ever seen a long tail peeping out from behind the boxes in your garage or a fast blur running through your kitchen? Rats are sneaky, nimble rodents. When you see one in your home, it's easy to panic. After all, who knows where they've been? It's almost impossible to track them down. Luckily, you don't have to get rid of rats yourself. Fox Pest Control takes rat extermination seriously. We come back regularly throughout the year to ensure the Rats don't come back. If you see any rat activity between your regularly scheduled service, simply give us a call.
There's nothing worse than seeing a mouse run across your kitchen. After all, who wants to cook or eat in a room that a mouse has been using for his own personal bathroom? Sadly, these irritating creatures are smart and sneaky; so once you see one of them, there's probably more. Fox Pest Control doesn't tolerate mice. We'll put in the effort to make sure you and your family feel safe in a clean home. The first sign of a mouse infestation is their droppings. Mice aren't particular about where they leave their droppings, so they will appear anywhere the mice are hiding, including the backside of drawers, inside pantries or cabinets, in basements or attic spaces, under water heaters or heating units, etc.
Ants in your kitchen again? You know the drill: ants come in and stick around for months. You probably already know this, but if you see them in the kitchen, they're in the bathrooms, bedrooms and doorways, too. Pretty soon the ants are taking over the entire house! At Fox Pest Control, we want you to feel comfortable and secure in an ant-free home. Ants find their way in through any open, unsealed space. This includes cracks in the wood and gaps in the window or old weather stripping. Once inside, they hunt for food and moisture.
Are you worried your pet has fleas? If your poor cat or dog seems to be scratching an awful lot, it's very possible they have fleas hiding in their fur coat. Sadly, pets track these tiny creatures inside which makes them even harder to get rid of in the long run. There's nothing worse than being worried that letting your pet inside will expose your family to fleas, because once you have a flea infestation, it's extremely hard to get rid of on your own. Fox Pest Control wants you to have peace of mind knowing that your family and pets are safe from fleas.
Are there little furry creatures digging in your yard? Moles aren't hard to spot. If you see a 4 to 7 inch critter that looks like it doesn't have any eyes or ears, you're probably dealing with a mole. They're definitely not pretty, and they can be very hard to get rid of. But if you see one, you don't have time to waste, because they can cause much damage in a very short amount of time. Fox Pest Control can help. Sightings of moles are very rare because even though they aren't completely blind, moles' poor eyesight makes them very shy.
