Trap, Seal, Repeat 🐭

If you’re seeing droppings, hearing scratching in the walls, or spotting gnaw marks, don’t wait. Mice can squeeze through openings the size of a dime, and rats only need a hole about the size of a quarter. Small gaps around doors, pipes, and foundations are often all it takes.

⭐ Customer Favorites In Stock:
• Glue Traps (multiple sizes) – Great for monitoring activity and catching mice in tight spaces.
• Ramik Green Pellets – A popular, reliable bait option for larger rodent issues.

We also carry T-Rexx Trapper traps, shock traps, repellents, granules, essential oil deterrents, plus sealants and weather stripping to help you build a true layered approach. Trap what’s inside, seal how they’re getting in, and stay ahead of the problem for long-term control.

Fall in love with your garden this season! In Middle Georgia, the perfect time to plant potatoes is between Valentine's Day through St. Patrick's Day. Stop by and grab your seed potatoes before they're gone!

❤️Pontiac Reds: Creamy, classic, and mash like a dream.
🥔Yukon Golds: Buttery, golden, and born for roasting.

Seed potatoes are here! It’s so fun to grow your own potatoes, and this is the month for planting. You can choose from Yukon Gold or Pontiac Red, or try some of both! Just make sure you plant them good and deep, either by digging a deep trench, or by mounding up the soil on top after planting.

February is a great month for pruning woody shrubs, especially roses. Rose gloves come with an extra-long cuff to save your arms from the thorns! Come see us if you need new pruning tools—it certainly makes the job easier if your tools are sharp and not rusty.
