We have used Hughes for the first time and had snake and a mice problem. They corrected the problem and are making sure it doesn’t return by doing follow up visits. I’m pleased at how they handled the problem not to mention the office staff is great.

Expert Bat Control in Montgomery County, Howard County, Northern Virginia & Washington DC in Montgomery County, MD
Bats in your home are more than a nuisance. In Montgomery County, the little brown bat and big brown bat are the species most likely to roost in attics and wall voids. A small colony can grow quickly, especially from late spring through summer when pups begin flying. Bat guano builds up in attic spaces, releasing spores linked to histoplasmosis, a serious lung condition. Bat urine also produces a strong ammonia-like odor that moves through ceilings and walls. Hughes Termite and Pest, a family owned and operated company, inspects your property to locate every entry point bats use to get in. We address the colony, seal gaps and vents, and protect the structure so bats cannot return. We serve homeowners across Montgomery County, Howard County, Northern Virginia, and Washington DC. If you hear scratching at dusk, spot staining near rooflines, or find a bat inside your living space, call us to schedule an inspection.
