If you are looking at replacing the Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HAVC) system in your home – or perhaps purchasing an HVAC unit for a new home build – there are so many questions you must answer. At the very least, you will need to consider the size of...

Preparing for something is almost always better than reacting to it. Certainly, that’s the case when it comes to insect control in your home. If you wait until you’ve seen the first bug – or signs of a bug infestation – you’re already fighting an uphill battle. Because once pests...

Quick story: I was getting my car repaired the other day and was on a tight schedule. Unfortunately, the new tire I needed came in late, and – once they got it installed – I was super pressed for time, and, of course, their checkout computer was running slow. So,...

There’s nothing quite so obnoxious as dealing with a bug infestation in your home. And by “infestation” we don’t necessarily mean hundreds of critters crawling around. Because when it comes to pests like cockroaches and spiders, even a couple of these critters may seem like an overwhelming home invasion. If...

One of the best things about our great state is the weather. All of Georgia – but especially North Georgia – offers a temperate climate, and, except for a few sweltering weeks each summer, pleasant and comfortable living. Unfortunately, those tolerable conditions also make our region very attractive to insects...

As the temperatures grow colder and we start to look toward winter, your first thought – at least when it comes to HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) – is probably concerning your heater. When was the last time it was serviced? And will it still be up to the...

As any homeowner who has had the misfortune of dealing with an infestation of these destructive pests will tell you, termites are the absolute worst. And, in Georgia, including northeast Georgia and metro Atlanta, termites are...

We all want to get the most out of our dollars, don’t we? And since we work hard to earn our pay, it seems silly – or at least unwise – to waste what we earn.  The good news is that, when it comes to paying some of our bills...

No one likes mosquitoes. Unfortunately, these winged pests fill the Georgia air for much of the year. In fact, the little blood suckers are quite comfortable any time temperatures reach 50 degrees Fahrenheit with regularity. That combined with a regular water source in which to lay their eggs makes our...

There’s always one. Always someone that says it as soon as you start talking about feeling hot (and you feel hot EVERY Georgia summer). You know what we’re talking about. There’s always someone that reminds you, “It’s not the heat, it’s the humidity!” Sadly, they’re right, sort of. How we...

Silverfish frequently appear as the air turns cold outside a home as they seek warmth. Of all the home pests we see on a regular basis, silverfish may be the ones that most confuse people. But what are they? Where do they come from? What do they eat? Are they...

When people think of air conditioning or HVAC, they most likely think of that big piece of machinery that sits outside their home (the condenser). But the truth is that your home comfort is down to a whole system of moving parts – including both new era electronics and old-fashioned...
