Family-owned Lloyd Pest Control was born in Southern California in 1931. We have won the Better Business Bureau Award for Marketplace Ethics. Our BBB-rating is A+. (PLEASE NOTE: We are unable to see any messages sent through the AngiesList system.)
"Our house was infested with termites, I used Lloyd's Pest control. They convinced me to use a heat treatment vs. tenting. I was told by the technician this process would cover the entire house. The quote was $2002 and process would take about 5 hours. Scheduled for October 2018, the one technician set up the equipment, ran the heat for one hour then packed up and left. I called and complained, a return visit with 2 technicians doing the same process but for a few hours. However, it was not explained to us that the heat treatment would only cover the 2nd story, although they sprayed in a few places outside, it was not sufficient. Since that time I've called for several trips back to kill termite infected areas in my home. Most of these return visits are for the downstairs areas. As of today, I called this morning to inspect/ treat areas in front of my home and above the garage. I would not recommend or use this company. It was a waste of money, even though their statement indicates "MONEY BACK GUARANTEE ", I was willing to apply what I've already paid to do the correct procedure, which is tenting. Well, now if I want tenting it will cost about $2600. I will never use them again. I feel cheated and scammed."

Animal removal services FAQs
DIY animal removal is rarely a good idea and is not advised for many reasons. First, these types of animals can carry diseases and, therefore, pose a health risk to you, your family, and your pets if mishandled. Second, depending on your city or municipality, it may be illegal to remove or handle wildlife yourself.
Sealing your home against these animals yourself is also a bad idea. Trapping an animal under your house will cause odor and insect problems when it passes away.
Pest control is not the same as animal removal. Pest control specialists treat for insects and bugs, often by using chemicals. Animal removal specialists try to avoid chemicals if possible and instead work to trap and move the animal that's causing problems.
Since each expert has their own removal methods, it's best to contact a pest control professional for insects and bugs and an animal control specialist for other animals.
Animal removal specialists specialize in removing critters and wildlife from in and around your home. These include:
Bats
Birds
Groundhogs
Moles and voles
Opossums
Mice and rats
Raccoons
Skunks
Squirrels
The specialist's method to remove these critters will depend on the animal. For example, groundhogs will be live-trapped and relocated, whereas, for birds, the expert will remove and discard the inactive nest and sanitize the area.
You might be tempted to call your local municipality to remove animals from your property, such as a groundhog burrowing in your yard or raccoons getting into your trash cans. However, they typically only remove domestic animals like dogs and cats from properties, or sick and injured wildlife that pose a public safety risk or health threat, such as a rabid animal. They typically do not capture or remove healthy wildlife.
Animal removal professionals have the tools, knowledge, and skills to trap and remove wild animals adequately and humanely. They also can relocate them correctly.
Professional animal removal costs between $200 and $600 for average homeowners. However, depending on the type and number of critters removed, this cost could range from $85 to $1,400.
This cost does not include the cost of home damage caused by the animal, which could be as low as $300 for minor drywall repair or as much as $15,000 for crawl space cleaning and restoration.
