One Animal You Don’t Want on Your Farm
When the weather gets cold, rodents are looking for a way to get
inside. Once in, they can damage your facility, contaminate harvests and
infest livestock with disease.
The 911 of Pest Control can help. Our Rodent Control Program gets to
the root of the problem quickly and effectively. Ehrlich has been helping
Lancaster County residents with their pest problems since 1928, and we
specialize in agricultural programs.
Call us for a complimentary inspection and estimate.
