[soneal]

I have Orkin come once every 2 months. We live near woods and have LOTS of wood spiders and other creepy crawlys. He has been coming for about 4 years now and I have always had a dog, he says it doesn't harm your pets. I have had no problems of them getting sick or anything. He sprays the outside of my house all around it really really good and you can see the liquid after he does it, so just to be safe I let it dry an hour or so before I let the dogs outside. I have the inside done too, it just doesn't require as much since the outside has a boundary nothing wants to come in. Having an exterminator has eliminated all of the bugs, thank goodness, I hate spiders especially. I would recommend one, just be sure and ask if their paticular mix would bother your dogs, different companys may use different mixes.They also will come and spray for free if you see anything in between teatments(they came and sprayed for bees at my front door in between once).
