"I had seen the advertisement for All Pest Pros in several Angie's List brochure.  The pictures were disgusting and I had a horrible feeling that they could have been taken in my attic. I put it off for over a year, but kept hearing noises in my attic and actually heard the sound of feet in a bedroom wall.  The noises of activity of some kind always were present when I went to bed each night.  I hired another company to check the attic and close some of the blatantly open holes that we thought would eliminate the problem.  They put traps in the garage, but I continued to hear suspicious noises at night.  Another advertising brochure came in the mail a couple weeks ago with the same advertisement that runs in Angie's List brochure.  I surrendered and gave All Pest Pros a call.  We scheduled an appointment and today Anthony Gordon came out.  He inspected from top to bottom and took lots of pictures.  He said he could smell urine when he came to the front door (just what a homeowner longs to hear). After the inspection, he gave me a bid to replace all the old insulation, clear out trash left by previous workmen and cover all the holes that allow rodents access.  I wasn't looking to spend money on that, but I could deny the problem no longer.  We set up a date for all the work to be completed on September 25.
I must compliment Anthony.  I so respect someone who is an expert in his field and I believe that he is.  He was thorough and explained everything he was doing, why and what he found.  He was considerate of my home, wore gloves, took off his shoes.  He couldn't have been more professional. Besides being professional, he is very kind.  I am grateful the company sent him as my inspector.
I will follow up after the work is completed, but I wanted to give my impressions after this first visit.  I have used one other company to try to eliminate the infestation, but it wasn't successful.  I am feeling very positive based on my experience with All Pest Pros and Anthony.

"Mr. Ryan contacted me personally. I was able to send pictures of the damage to help get the process started. Show up on time, and got to work. He and he team walked me through the process and costs associated with the procedure. John, his plumber was beyond professional, polite and courteous. The work looked great every step of the way. He even took out the trash. We need more businesses operating at this level of service. Thank you Ron and John. Shawn"

FAQs for bug and insect pest control service projects in Porterville, CA

The timeframe it takes to eliminate gnats varies considerably depending on the infestation's severity and the treatment approach. According to pest control professionals, completely eliminating gnats from your home can take several days to a few weeks. Success depends mainly on identifying and addressing the source of the infestation, such as overwatered plants, decaying organic matter, or moisture problems. Following treatment, continued prevention measures significantly improve long-term results.

When applied correctly, professional exterminators use treatments that present minimal risk to household members. Many companies now offer family-friendly options specifically formulated to be less toxic while remaining effective against gnats. If necessary, your pest control professional should provide clear instructions regarding temporary evacuation during application and advise on appropriate waiting periods before resuming regular activity in treated areas.

Though often grouped together, these small flying insects have distinct characteristics and habits. True gnats commonly gather around houseplants and moist soil. Fruit flies, which are lighter colored, primarily target overripe produce and fermented items. Drain flies, recognizable by their moth-like appearance, breed in the organic matter in drains and plumbing. Identifying which type you're dealing with helps determine the most effective elimination strategy.
