Landscaping Changes: Get Rid of Chipmunks by Stirring Up Their Environment

Chipmunks’ favorite hideouts include shrubbery and rock walls. Changing up your landscaping to remove these structures and plants can help push chipmunks away from using your home or garden as a place to stay out of the way of predators.

A Bird House…But a Big One, for Owls

Bird house? Ha! You city slicker. How about trying an owl box? You guessed it, an owl box is like a bird house, but for owls.

What Pro-Tec Customer's Are Saying

  • "I took over the ownership of a small cafe in St. Louis about 4 months ago. Everything was going good until one evening I was closing and saw a mouse running behind the trash area. I immediately called Pro-Tec Pest Management, which was recommended by one of my other closing team members. Of course, it was after hours so I left a message. They returned my call first thing the next morning. They sent an exterminator out the same day, the technician, was so nice and respectful. He did an EXTENSIVE search, searching for any holes mice could enter, and found a small hidden one behind the trash area. He filled the hole up and made sure there were no other access holes for them to come back. Besides doing a great job, the price was VERY REASONABLE for the work they did. I had used anther company in the past at one of my properties a few years back, and I paid less this time then I did then. They did a great job, and I highly recommend."
