    I saw some older threads about this issue, but thought I'd get some more up-to-date opinions...

    Last year, around this time, we had a problem with spiders in the house. This year, in anticipation of the coming blight, I'm looking at pest control services, and would like some recommendations what to get and/or what to avoid. Any idea how these services effect pets (both dogs and cats)? Any services that you recommend or hate? What is a reasonable amout per visit, and how many visits per year?

    Oh, and FYI - I'm in the Austin area, though I know some of these services are national chains/franchises.

    if you want an organic solution try aztecpest.com

    I've never used them, almost did once, but they told me a way to solve my problem myself. so they seem honest as well

    Organic is very appealing to me, so I called them, and they were very honest, up-front about their services. Didn't try to rope me into a contract or sell a bunch of extra services I didn't want/need. Booked 'em for next week, so we'll see how it goes. GREAT suggestion, updawg. Repped.

    I was getting a bunch of knats/small flies and they told me it was because I was overwatering my houseplants which ended up being the problem.
