Description of Work: I found this firm over 20 years ago and went back to them to check that their work was intact after roofing work was done by others. Scheduling was easy and they thoroughly checked and adjusted as needed. They offer a one year warranty for the work.

Description of Work: Sprayed the perimeter inside and outside of the house. We just got all of our windows cleaned and he sprayed the clean windows to make them dirty again. Not happy. I do not know if I would use them again, because of this practice. I have to have the window cleaners come again for an additional cost.;

Description of Work: They made their annual/sometimes semi-annual visit to lay down powder for my recurring ant problem. The ants stop invading my kitchen and back porch same day and sometimes they're gone for 2 years...sometimes they come back the following year. Typically the problem is in a different location. One year the north wall, next year maybe the east wall. But the solution works for the entire year so I'm pleased.

Description of Work: The agent was a nice man who put out bait for the mice. But we never got the long term solution that we wanted. That is: where were the mice getting in? how do I fix that? What are my options for a house built in the late 1950s? | |The price seemed a little much for someone to just put out bait and not provide long-term solutions. But the man was punctual and very nice.

Description of Work: They did a complete termite treatment of our row home. They even did a treatment on the shared wall in our neighbors basement. They wanted to treat all three of the row homes that are attached to each other, but not all the neighbors would cooperate. If the origin of the problem is in one of the other homes, we may not be protected. George and his employees treated the entire interior perimeter of our home (drilled holes all around the edge of the basement floor and injected the treatment), they drilled and treated on our front stairs, drilled and treated the walls that were not connected to the other homes. Overall, I would say that they did a great job. There was a bit of miscommunication about where they were treating, but we did clear that up quickly. Basically we had to move much more furniture than we thought we were going to have to. Clearly these guys know what they are doing and are incredibly thorough and safe. I just really really hate termites.

Dear Member--- We consider every review and attempt to upgrade where there seems to be a less than "A" report. In this case our technicians received "B" for professionalism and "A" for quality. I can understand "B" for punctuality or "B" for price. The punctuality can be sharper; however, the price may be standard in most cases. If you have an actual complaint about the fee, we would appreciate discussing same. Regarding professionalism versus quality being at different levels, I would appreciate a call from you to discuss the entirety of this service. We are going to contact you from our schedule record and customer file. It is important to understand how your service went and if all is well at this time. Regards, George Manning Consulting Entomologist

Description of Work: We live in Lincoln Park where there is a known rat issue. We wanted exclusion work done. Sergio surveyed front and back yard for evidence of rats. Found some burrows and droppings so trenched and closed all potential entry areas with wire mesh. Since the work has been done, we have seen a rat unsuccessfully try to get into a former entry point -- so far, so good! Sergio was very responsive and pleasant to work with.

Response from American Pest Solutions
Dear Angie's List Member: It is our responsibility to inform our customers what is attracting a pest problem to their location. It is not sufficient to rid a location of that concern without explaining the factors contributing to such a pest concern. If one wishes to go to our website; [hyperlink removed], there, it is often possible to see a review that can help one understand many pest issues that can be found within, and, or without a building structure. Thanks for the follow-up review. George Manning Consulting Entomologist

Response from American Pest Solutions
Dear Angie's List Member: We do want to treat adjoining units that immediately border the offending bed bug presence within the target unit. This is done by treating those non-target units prophylactically to prevent dissemination of the pest. We call this a box treatment, in which the target unit is treated aggressively, while those units that are immediately above, below, next door, or across the hall are treated preventively. Should we discover an additional presence of bed bugs in one of those outer units, we will expand our elimination work to that unit and then treat those units that surround that additional bed bug presence. Having explained our procedure, I will be looking into your concern that we did not respond to your request about an additional neighboring unit. Could it be that the unit you were wanting us to treat, falls outside of those units that fill our box treatment procedure.? Thanks for your kind response to our service. Apparently there is no longer a bed bug problem. Regards, George Manning Consulting Entomologist

Response from American Pest Solutions
Angie's List has recently changed their policy and has implemented a rapid response program that requires companies to call the customer within 2 business days, once the deal is purchased, to set up appointments that we weren't aware of until now. I apologize. We want each person we do business with to walk away feeling satisfied, and that apparently didn't happen in your case. Please give us another chance; we want to make things right. We depend on customer feedback to let us know where we can improve. Please contact me at your convenience so we can discuss this further. I do hope you accept our apology and see fit to do business with us again. Please send us your email address so that we can send you a $25 off coupon for your next service. Sincerely, George Manning

Description of Work: Needed help. Day one: Left a message. Day Three: no response, called office left info with a call taker who indicated we'd hear back that day. Day Seven, still no response. Having provided no service - grade F. UPDATE: Issue: My wife and I just bought this house a few months ago, spent a week skiing and have had these black gnats in our bathrooms and kitchen. We tried the online suggestions of vinegar / get rid of fruit / bleach in the drains. All to no avail. Response from APS: Owner George Manning contacted me immediately upon my initial post. George and I discussed the issue in detail and a service call was scheduled immediately. George demonstrated both from his phone call and his visit that he understands well bugs and how to take care of them. He came out himself with another tech and provided the service. While pricey, we have been bug free since. George also addressed some other issues that might be roots of the issue with the city sewer system. He also helped my wife address a "dry drain" smell in our basement. Super helpful and super knowledgeable. Thanks.

Response from American Pest Solutions
Dear Member--- We saw your "F" report on angieslist.com when we were notified of the report from Angie's List. We checked to see why you had not been answered in a timely fashion. We learned that, I, George Manning, owner and consulting entomologist, did not pick up the inter-office memo. After seeing my failure to respond, I did contact you, the member, and offered to visit you in the company of several of our technicians. The service call proved fruitful for you and your family. We showed your wife the sinking curbs and sidewalks that were effecting your newly purchased home. We took pictures, which we provided you. We recommended that a civil engineer be contacted. We offered such a professional as well as an architect. We recommended that you seek an attorney familiar with structural litigation, and we offered to speak with you and these professionals, as well as helping you to draft a letter to the City of Chicago, who, we felt was responsible for the shifting foundation of your home. Finally, we did correct the fly problem that had invaded your home; a direct result of the municiple sewer system. We were happy that we were permitted the opportunity to serve your needs after having such a poor response to your initial call. Regards, George Manning Consulting Entomologist
