About Pest Pointers
Hey there! I’m Zack DeAngelis, the creator of Pest Pointers. I grew up on over 50+ acres of pastures, woods, and a freshwater bass pond in an area of Upstate, NY where dealing with wildlife pests is a common occurrence. I love all things outdoors, gardening and landscaping – which I want to share that passion as much as I can.
I’ve had my share of run-ins with pests and wildlife (yes, including our dog getting sprayed by skunks a few times… what fun!) My goal is to help those with pest issues solve their problems in a way that’s effective, natural (when possible), and beneficial both for them and the environment. Preventing a pest problem is the best way to solve one!
Thanks for supporting Pest Pointers and feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions!
