“We’ve been using Five Star for 2-3 years. When you call or text they respond almost immediately. Whether you speak with Heshie or Abe or even the office personnel, they’re attentive and ask all the right questions. And their guy Benjy is a doll. We’ve been through a few exterminators and we’ve finally found one we can rely on any time of the year.”

“Absolutely the BEST exterminator ever! If I could give them 6 stars, I would — and then maybe throw in a few gold medals and a standing ovation while I’m at it. From the moment I called, their customer service was off the charts. I felt like I was talking to an old friend who just so happened to have a PhD in pest annihilation…”

Good questions

Straight answers.

Can I send you pictures of what I’m seeing?

Yes, we encourage our customers to text us images of any droppings, pests, or damage they find. Pictures help us identify the problem faster and recommend the best solution before we even arrive.

Are your treatments safe for children and pets?

We use products registered with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and customize our service to apply materials only where pests are active. Our technicians are trained to apply the correct dosage and target specific areas.

How do I know if I have squirrels in the attic?

Typical signs include scampering or chewing sounds overhead, shredded insulation, chewed entry points near rooflines or vents, and unusual noises during the daytime when squirrels are active.

What are the signs of mice in my home?

You may notice small droppings along baseboards or inside cabinets, gnaw marks on food packaging and wires, shredded paper or fabric nests, and scratching noises at night.

Will I need to leave my home or business during service?

Usually not. Most treatments focus on the exterior and immediate problem areas, minimizing disruption to occupants. If needed, we will always discuss preparations before we arrive.

How much does trapping or pest removal cost?

Pricing is not one size fits all. It depends on the service being provided, the type of pest, and the size of the home or business. Please call or text us with details, or even better, send photos, and we will give you a customized estimate.
