Hearing scrambling in the ceiling first thing in the morning? October is chewing season in Nova Scotia. Red and grey squirrels are choosing winter dens right now, and a warm attic, a quiet garage or a backyard shed looks like the perfect spot.

A quick way to tell who's up there: 🐿️ Squirrels: busy at dawn and dusk, louder running and rolling sounds 🐭 Mice: quiet scratching, mostly at night

Where they usually get in: gable and roof vents, soffit returns, gaps around the chimney, and tree branches that touch the roofline.

One important tip: don't just seal the hole. If a squirrel is still inside, it will chew a new way out — often through your siding or ceiling. Timing and a proper one-way exit matter.

Not sure what you're hearing? We'll come take a look. Free assessment, no pressure.

Our Home Protection Plan covers year-round pest prevention for $50/month + HST — 12-month commitment.*

The first cool nights are the starting gun for mice in Halifax homes.

A house mouse only needs a gap the width of a dime — about 6 mm. Dryer vents, sill plates, pipe entries and garage door corners are the usual ways in, and most homes have one to three of them.

You will almost always see the droppings before you see the mouse: dark, rice-sized, under the sink, in a drawer, along a baseboard.

Traps alone never finish the job. If the openings stay open, the next mouse simply walks in behind the last one. Seal first, then control.

🪰 Finding slow, buzzing flies crowding your sunny windows on warm September afternoons?

Those are cluster flies — and here's the part most people don't know: they have nothing to do with how clean your home is. They're outdoor insects looking for a warm wall or attic to spend the winter in.

September is the sweet spot. Seal and treat the entry points NOW — before they settle in — and you won't be vacuuming them up all winter.

Not sure if it's cluster flies or something else? We offer free assessments across HRM and surrounding communities. Locally owned and operated — you'll talk to the people who actually do the work.

The kids go back to class. The pests enrol too. 🐜🐀🐝

Every September in HRM we see the same three calls:

🛏️ Bed bugs — student rentals and dorm move-ins. Bags come home, and so do hitchhikers. 🐝 Wasps — September nests are at peak size and shortest temper, right beside the door the kids use every day. 🐁 Mice — first cool nights, and they start looking for a warm foundation gap to move through.

Meet the team: Jeff "The Tracker" checking the duffel bags, Mike "The Boss" handling the nest by the back step, and Stephen "The Fixer" sealing the entry point before anything gets in.

Free assessment, no obligation. Home Protection Plan — $50/month + HST, year-round coverage across Halifax, Dartmouth, Bedford, Sackville and all of HRM.*

Three things we're seeing right now:

🛏️ Bed bugs — moving into student apartments and rentals with used furniture and luggage
🐝 Wasps — colonies are at their biggest and crankiest in September
🐭 Mice — a gap the size of a dime is all they need before the cold sets in

A quick check now saves a much bigger job in October.

Serving Halifax, Dartmouth, Bedford, Sackville and across HRM.

Those tiny flies in your kitchen? There are three different ones — and if you guess wrong, nothing you do works.

Fruit fly: stubby, tan, red eyes, hovering over the fruit bowl and the recycling. Fungus gnat: slender and dark, drifts up off the houseplant every time you water. Drain fly: fuzzy, moth-like, sitting perfectly still on the bathroom wall.

Fruit flies came home on the bananas — one female lays up to 500 eggs and, at Halifax summer temperatures, egg to adult is about eight days. Rinse every bottle and can before it hits the recycling bin (that's the most-missed source by far), refrigerate ripe fruit for 10 days, and they're gone in about a week. No spray can required.

Fungus gnats mean the plants are too wet. Drain flies mean there's slime film in a pipe — tape a piece of clear packing tape over the drain overnight, sticky side down, and whichever drain catches flies is your culprit.

Full ID chart and the fixes for all three are in the image above. Questions? Ask below — happy to help you figure out which one you've got.

August is peak flea month in Nova Scotia.

If you spotted your first flea of the year this week, you didn't do anything wrong. Eggs laid back in May, June and July are all hatching at once, and our 20–25°C humid summer runs the whole egg-to-adult cycle in about two to three weeks. A "sudden" infestation is really 8–12 weeks of quiet build-up.

The two-minute check: run a fine comb through your pet's coat over a sheet of white paper — base of the tail, belly, behind the ears. Live jumping specks are fleas. "Salt and pepper" specks that smear reddish-brown on a damp paper towel are flea dirt. That counts, even if you never see a flea. Find either one, call your vet the same day.

And if you don't have a pet? Something else is feeding them — nine times out of ten it's raccoons or skunks under a deck or shed, a feral cat in a garden bed, or squirrels in a soffit.

We're not veterinarians. Your vet handles the pet. We handle the home, the yard, and the wildlife driving it.

Full guide (pet check, why fleas "come back" two weeks later, what actually works) in the comments 👇

They built a fortress under the deck. We solved that problem. 🐝

Wasps don't knock. They move in, multiply, and turn your backyard into a no-go zone by August.

One call. One crew. One way in — no way out.
