Akeen advised that if there are still bees after four days to call and he would come back out and re-spray at no charge. Akeen did a good job and was very professional and explained what it was he was spaying on the house and advised it would last for a couple of months to keep the bees away. I have had no further problems with bees nesting in area that was treated.
Description of Work: Akeen, arrived and sprayed the two different type of bee nests entrances 1. bumble bee and 2. yellow jackets with a power residue that will get transferred from bee to bee. This was done at both areas, Then Akeen sprayed a liquid on the rock fence where the bees were burrowed into the ground the entire fence was sprayed alone with the all the eve's on the house and the deck overhang.

They were able to come out right away. Some confusion on the time window, but they showed up the day that was scheduled and the Bees are gone! I had tried sprays without luck, so their process is much more effective than spray can bee-wasp kill products. Overall very happy with the work, and the Angies list coupon was definitely the deal maker.
Description of Work: Chem-Wise eliminated two underground bee's nests at my front entrance and back yard. They also removed all nests from behind my exterior shutters.

The service was phenomenal. The man who came to the house was polite and more importantly thorough. The gutter line was sprayed with the bee proofing material. As the liquid arrived at the nest...the nasty yellow jackets swarmed and attacked. The man returned his equipment and then applied something which resulted in a cloud of smoke. He then crounched down and applied another product to the entry points of the nest. No more yellow jackets...peace restored to my home. We are extremely thankful.

I thought I found where the yellow jackets were entering into my house through a tiny hole in my roof area. I sealed it off and killed all yellow jackets. The next day I noticed they were entering through another side. At that point I gave up and decided to make some calls to a few exterminators. Due to Chem-wise's positive review I went with them. Glad I did! Rudy the technician who came to do the job found 2 other nests at the top most part of my roof! I was shocked and glad he took care of business. He showed me an area where they were entering from which I sealed after 3 days per his instructions. Some how the yellow jackets were also finding a way into one of my rooms. They seemed disoriented and would just hang out on the window so it was an easy kill for me. Rudy told me the yellow jackets that found their way in the house would soon due to the the powder he sprayed through the area they were entering. He was right haven't seen any in the house since then. Thank God!
Description of Work: Killed existing yellow jacket, paper wasps, and hornets around exterior of house.

It went well. It was raining badly that day, so the serviceman was able to get rid of the nest that day but ended up having to come back a different day for the preventative spraying. He did not charge to come back on a different day. I bought a deal on Angie's List and they came out the next day. Very fast service

They did what they promised and followed up well. They did another inspection afterwards to see if they could remedy the problem. We definitely got our money’s worth. They responded to our requests well.

My experience started out with the office staff who were very helpful and fast at responding to my emails. Then within a couple of days, Robert showed up on time and very professional. Explained exactly what he would be doing and got right to work. I decided to go with the Initial Tri-Annual Service which is a great package deal. Robert explained that if I saw any additional pests to call and they will spot spray to take care of the problem at no additional cost. Glad I found Chem-Wise Ecological Pest Management Services on Angies List :)
Description of Work: Sprayed around the house foundation, spot sprayed in the basement and garage. Also set out bait for mice in the garage.

We will have them do that for us. What I really want to say about this company is that from my initial contact with Amber in the office, to meeting Akem at my door, I have never been so impressed with anyone I have contacted on Angie's List (or anywhere). This is a fantastic company with amazing customer service. I am so pleased with the response I received and the wonderful people I encountered from Chem Wise. If there were more stars, they'd have them. I whole-heartedly recommend Chem Wise!!!!!!!
Description of Work: Chem Wise applied a chemical to a huge hornets nest growing outside my garage door. They came out within 5 hours of calling their office. Do I know if it will work and kill the hornets? Most likely it will. They offered to come back in four days to remove the empty nest for additional $50.00.

The provider called the next day after submitting a form for service online the evening before. Our service was scheduled within 3 business days of the request date. The technician actually arrived a few minutes early and expressed concern that we stay in the house so we didn't get stung, The bee removal was complete within 10 minutes. He had put down some powder to prevent the bees from coming back and the service came with a 90-day guarantee. Plus, they didn't need us to print out the Angie's List coupon, it was already deducted from the bill. What a great experience. We will definitely use this company again (but hopefully we won't have to).

Very good deal for the amount of insects removed and for the house treatment. I had to call them back for a second treatment since the wasps were very persistent in one area, but that was at no charge since it was within the 30 day window. Have used them before for mouse removal as well. Would definitely use again.

We had a wasp nest with a lot of activity, which needed removal, as it was under a plant in a flower bed near our kids' play set. The daily deal of wasp/bee treatment for the property made hiring someone to take care of it a no-brainer. Well-worth the cost. For $95 they eliminated that nest, and the treatment gave us a "guarantee" through the end of this fall season, which proved advantageous since, the following week when we were removing our retaining wall, to replace it, we discovered another wasp nest that required treatment. Chemwise came back out -- at no additional charge -- to treat this nest, as well.

it was great- they removed a large baseketball sized hornets nest, evaluated the rest of my property and sprayed to prevent recurrences. as part of the deal, i can call them for the rst of the seaon at no additional cost. i liked them so much- i called them for lawn care and that has been great also- my weeds are finally gone after 4 seaons of me trying to do it myself. they did an outstanding job.

There was some confusion about the deal. Specifically, I thought that they were going to address a spider issue when the deal was meant for rodent exclusion. Ultimately, we worked out a deal, but I wasn't sure if I saved money or not.

We notices a lot of bee activity around some bushes near the sunroom. I had tried to spay them myself, but they were set on staying around. I saw the Angie's List Deal and gave Chem-Wise a call and a few days later Brandon from Chem-Wise called and said he would be arriving on the day we had set up. After listening to me and seeing the problem for himself, Brandon said that they were yellow jackets and should be no problem to remove. He proceeded to inspect the rest of the outside of the house for more nests and sprayed around the house to prevent future nest. Then he "suited-up" with his beekeeper outfit to take care of the yellow jackets. He dusted around the bushes and brick wall where they were coming from. In just a few seconds, they were swarming around him. After a thorough dusting, Brandon retreated and observed from a distance to be sure the dusting was effective. He explained how it was going to take some time for the dust to work. He suggested that we stay away from the nest for 48 hours and there was no need for him to return to remove the nest. But if they return, we should call and have him come out again for additional no charge. The yellow jackets were gone as he said and have not returned. We are very happy with the results, and again are enjoying our patio area without the "little friends".

The technician was very knowledgable and polite. He arrived within the time frame specified, and was very thorough in his inspection and spraying. He even offered to return in a few days if i didn't see improvement with my bee problem in a few days. And a big thanks to the company for hiring an individual with a hearing impairment. It was great to see diversity represented.

Chemwise was great to work with. I had to reschedule a few times and they were very understanding. I actually purchased this deal a few years ago, but never got around to using it. Chemwise still honored the original deal, which I do appreciate. They showed up on time, sprayed the house and knocked down wasp nests. Later that day, I witnessed wasps flying in and out of a whole. I called up Chemwise. They came back out and sprayed the area for me. Thank you for the great service.
