What should you do if you get bed bugs in your bed? This short video answers that important question!

We’re jumping the gun on our music series this week to help you rock the holiday weekend.  We can’t have a series of “bird music” videos without choosing the most requested song in rock’n'roll: Free Bird. Our apologies to the turkeys that are anything but free this week. If you remember, we noted in an

One of the problems that went unmentioned in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy is how it will the storm cause greater pest problems.  Sandy flooded portions of New York, including New York City’s subway system.

Yesterday, November 6, was Election Day.  In case you haven’t heard, President Obama was re-elected, and voters kept the control of the US House and Senate the same.  Congratulations Mr. President on your victory.  Now that we’re past the big date, what does it mean?  Here are two interesting analyses of the election’s implications for domestic
