By Bewareofthis

This contractor (Marcos A Torres) is very bad and quality of work is well below average. His ability to monitor the work and ensure it was done correctly is very poor. He is not very smart and could never give a straight answer to our questions. Numerous jobs not finished and work falling apart within months. We have electrical outlets that do not work, molding coming off the wall, wood work that a beginner could judge was done poorly, plus many other unfinished jobs. He is not qualified to be overseeing work. His level of education in this area is poor. He is supposed to be overseeing the work but was more interested in taking out money and other things. He has taken on the nickname of Piece of Sh&T by family, friends, and neighbors. They all saw the quality of his work and are amazed he is still in business. He name was given to us by friends of ours and they are really embarrassed by what a Piece of Sh&t this guy turned out to be. The Piece of Sh&t was easily distracted. Cannot trust this individual around family members. Beware of this individual. Please beware of this individual. We have to hire someone else to fix his work and finish the unfinished jobs. He caused the value of our house to actually depreciate. We just got unlucky by getting him recommended to us and we do not want this to happen to another family. Beware of this Predator. ...read more

the bed bug scare of 2010

I have had enough of all these companies trying to scare the public into buying there bed bug products or services.So first lets go over just what all the fuss is about.bed bugs are insects and as such they can be gotten out of your house or apt.In most cases if the infestation isn't to bad 2 treatments will get rid of them.Yes you can diy but in most cases this is one bug thats better of letting a trained pest professional handle because if you dont know what your doing you could make the problem worse,and never ever use foggers on a bed bug infeatation.Bed bugs will take a blood meal several time in one feeding cycle so it appears that there are more insects than are really there.the will travel to the host but unless they are many in numbers they will stay close to the host(around the bed or couch).they do not spread diseases that we know of.I dont care what you have heard the only way to get rid of them in one treatment is to heat the house and all contents to the kill temp and that cost quite a lot of money.Dont fall for the ad that claim to kill bed bugs with little or no effort thats simply not true.As a pest control guy i know that chemicals alone will not get rid of heavy infestations,we have to have the customer do prep list and this has to be done exactly like we say.If you dont clean out a closet or forget to run some bed linens in the dryer the you could leave open areas for a new infestation.bed bug females lay from 3 to eight eggs ay a time in clusters in dark hidden areas and once the egg hatches the go through 5 nymphal stages and reach maturity in 32-45 days.The adult has been known to live over 8 months without feeding and i have treated home over a year vacant with active infestations.yhe most important part of getting rid of bed bugs is to do a thorough inspection,have the home properly preped and do a complete treatment  ...read more

I am finding bed bugs to be quite interesting

This little bug is getting quite infamous.It seems like the over blown media scare about  bed bugs is getting normally reasonable people freaked out.Yesterday two guys asked me some questions about bed bugs that made me see how much wrong information there is out there so let me explain away some of the more crazy misconseptions floating around out there. First off bed bugs have  not been found to transmit any diseases in humans.They can cause rashes in some people due to scratching the" bites".One bed bug will feed several time in one feeding cycle so the bites will be in clusters or in kind of a line,so just a few bed bugs will give the apperance of a larger infestation.They do not bite you they have piercing sucking mouth parts.First stage bed bug nymphs are beige or colorless and small they turn reddish after a blod meal then they molt.The adult female can lay 300-500 egges the eggs hatch out in 10 to 12 day cycles.The life span of bed bugs vary if they have a steady food source(human blood)they dont live quite as long around 10 months.If they dont have a food soure they can live over a year.There are five stages or bed bugs to reach adulthood this take around 35-45 days. I have treated houses that have been empty over a year with active bed bug infestations.Most of us that have dealt wiyh bed bug infestations an tell aprox how long the place has had them and if its a rental if they were brought in by the tenant or if they were there before hand. If you have or think you have bed bugs please call a pest control professional to look over your home (but be carefull to get a company that specialises in bed bugs they can be hard to treat for)and ask them what the treatment includes like heat treatments,steaming,vacum and chemical treatment.will they use mattress and box spring encasements and the glue board cups under the legs of the furniture.How many treatments are going to be done and what kind of guarantee the offer.Be aware you will need to the your home ready for treatment.If you choose to have the house treated by heat(very effective but pretty expensive)or by chemical  treatment the treating company should provide a prep sheet for you to get the house ready. ...read more
