I wanted a few days and no call, in the mean time I find a second nest in wall, and maybe a 3rd(could have been a drone searching), but the 2nd hole was/is quite active. I then call the company back leaving information and mentioned no getting a return call. Was told someone would call me back in 10 minutes. I get the call back, and was told the approx. cost on that one confirmed nest, $5,550.00-$8,000.00!!!!! AND if there is another nest that would affect the price substantially. I was stunned, shocked and freaked out about the costs involved. He told me all what was involved, a construction crew, bee keeper, cutting into wall, not knowing how large the nest is, asked how long this had been going on which I did not know since we had just bought the house and moved in a couple wks. ago. He told me, rather emphatically, You HAVE to have them taken out and the wall cleaned out or they'll come back, the wall will grow mold, attract insects and rodents. It being a matter of my own health & safety. He said they wanted to come back out to see what was involved and check on the other sightings I had found, which would be the following Monday(today). In the mean time I searched the internet, called other companies who did not handle honey bee nests. Finally after hrs of searching I found a bee keepers forum, from there I found a list of honey bee removers-not companies rather individuals who do this as part of their living and many are bee keepers-www. beeremovalsource.com As I was typing this one of the before mentioned guys, Dan Parizek, came to my door to check out the nest. .He examined one bee which I had captured, and one which came out of the wall- turns out it is NOT a honey bee, it a mason bee, similar in appearance-yet way different. No wall to be cut & rebuilt. He directed me to ChemWise. And the man didn't even charge me for coming out! Upon leaving he said, "There is still some good guys out there". He also said, there is no way it would cost that kind of money to do this job even if I had honey bee nests-it would be closer to maybe 1k and it would have to be a very large nest/job. Dan is a member of Cook DuPage Beekeepers Association, Illinois State Beekeepers Association, and the American Beekeeping Federation and a carpenter by trade. Sounds qualified enough for me. And far more qualified then ABC, and certainly FAR FAR more honest. I am more than disgusted with ABC Humane Wildlife Control & Prevention. That's is the first & last time I will call them.
Description of Work: Found bees entering/exiting a small hole in exterior brick wall of house. ABC sent one of their specialists out to confirm type of bee and assess problem. He captured bee, made ID of it being honey bees, and having nest in wall. He took pictures and made measurements of the wall in relation to the bees entry point, then sent them to his boss. Was told his boss would call me back later or next day on the details & scheduling. They would have to use(a man they use) A bee keeper who also happens to be qualified mason would have to come out, cut wall, remove nest, transport nest to a bee farm, and rebrick wall.

They were great. I called on a Friday, they were able to accommodate us the very next day for the inspection and then come back the day after that with the necessary tools to open up the side of my porch and get the dead animals out. The person who came was professional but also had a good sense of humor, was great about finding a spot on the side of my porch to remove that is not visible from the street and then patched it back up quite well after her was dene. He was also kind enough to take a look at my next door neighbor's strange droppings for no charge so the neighbor could figure out whether he needed to call them in. Will definitely use this company again, for live trapping or dead animal removal.
Description of Work: Called to remove what we thought was a dead animal under our porch (smell was quite bad). They did an inspection on a Saturday afternoon to make sure nothing was living in there, and then came back Sunday morning with the tools to open the porch and remove the dead animals (turned out to be 2 possums).

We called ABC Wildlife because of a skunk sighting one afternoon. We've had numerous run ins in the past with skunks trying to take up residence under a backyard shed. They were courteous and sent someone out the next morning to set a trap. After several days with no results, called again and had another trap set since the first one was malfunctioned. After a few more days, the trap caught a squirrel, and at that point we had the trap picked up. All of the guys who came out were friendly, courteous, and answered any questions. I will definitely use them again if the need arises.

Overall I know we made the right choice to follow Andy's recommendations. We also opted for the 6 month plan that would include re-evaluation of our situation and resupplying the bait stations. We have peace of mind that our yard won't be overrun by chipmunks and our dogs are once again free to play in their own yard. I am very pleased with their professional and friendly service. They took the time to listen to our concerns and did a thorough evaluation of the inside and outside of our home. Going with A-B-C Humane Wildlife Control was the right decision for us.
Description of Work: Andy from A-B-C Humane Wildlife Control did the initial evaluation and made his recommendations. What we thought was a rabbit and mouse problem in the yard turned out to be chipmunks. At least 2 colonies took up residence under the wooden platform for our storage shed. I was extremely glad it wasn't mice but not real excited that it ended up being chipmunks. For the birds in the dryer vent, they had not nested and we weren't going to take the chance that they would come back to nest. Andy's recommendation was to put out bait traps for the chipmunks. We have 4 such stations around the platform area. Andy made sure that our 2 dogs would not be able to bother the stations by making sure they were secure by bricks on top. He only had 2 stations and called in the follow-up for 2 more stations and the wire covers for the dryer vent. Tate returned on Sunday to place the other 2 bait stations and install the vent covers.

They were very helpful when I called and even suggested other avenues to try that would not have cost moeny ~ like calling a wildlife place, the police, and animal control. As it was after 3 PM, I made an appointment for ABC to come the next day, but they told me I could canel if one of the places I called would help me. None of the agencies that serve my town would do anything about it. I was concerned about this sick animal being in the yard where my dogs play, but I also felt so bad for the racoon as it was clearly suffering.The window of time thay gave me for the appointment was bigger than I normally like ~ I think it was three or four hours. When they got to my house, it was actually past the latest time in their window. That might not have mattered so much to me if there wasn't a suffering animal involved. When they got there, they did an efficient job of catching it.
Description of Work: I had a racoon in my yard that was in the final stages of distemper. They came and removed it.

Response from ABC Humane Wildlife Control & Landmark Pest Mgt
Thanks again for choosing ABC Humane Wildlife Control. This time of year, especially with winter conditions hanging around, these type of wildlife issues are common. The result is many stops that delay technicians. You didn't mention if the technician informed you if he was running behind, which is one of our customer service policies, but if not we apologize and wil be bringing that up at our next field meeting. Again, thank you for choosing our team to help you with your wildlife issue.

After a couple of months of trying to trap them on our own with traps provided by our village, we called ABC with the hopes that they could remove the critters. I contacted a few vendors based on Angie's List referrals and ABC was the first to respond, within a couple of hours of my initial call. While the first raccoon was caught within a week of the traps being set, the second animal seemed more cagey. After a couple of more weeks, ABC returned and baited their traps with "raccoon lure". Not sure what was in the lure, (or why it wasn't in the traps initially) but it did the trick and both raccoons were trapped and removed within a month. Everyone from the office staff who set up the billing to the "trappers" who came to the house were professional, prompt and courteous. Would highly recommend! While I hope not to need them again, I will not hesitate to call if I ever hear that scratching in the walls again!
Description of Work: They successfully trapped and removed the pair of raccoons who were living in the ceiling of our sunporch.

We called the company to get an estimate on our wild rabbits in our backyard on a Friday. We were then told that they would call in the morning and would probably come by that morning. The next day, we were told that they would come in the evening (we weren't available) and would come the next day, Sunday. On Sunday, they called and said they could come in the afternoon and we unfortunately couldn't wait for them to come out then either. It was frustrating to have to wait for a company to come out for services over the weekend. Very disappointing.

We used the Angie's list coupon for the initial inspection. We believed we had squirrels coming in through vents on the roof. They set traps, explained the procedure, etc. All was good until we stopped hearing squirrels. They put up indicators that they said they would check in 3 days to make sure we no longer had squirrels. They were supposed to come back on 2/1, but did not. I called the following week and they said they would be out the next day. They usually call or leave a note when they come out. We had not heard from them so on 2/13 I called back again. They claim they did come out on 2/8, but would need to come back again on 2/14 to check the vents. So, they started out great, but once I wanted my vents capped, it took two weeks and my follow-up phone calls to get follow through. I decided to cut my losses and will have someone else cap the vents.

They came out as we had suspected squirrels or rats were stuck in between the roof and roof deck, since we could hear scratching noises every night. They came out and did a complete inspection. Based on the symptoms, they determined we had mice in the walls of our home addition. They promptly found where the mice were getting into our home, and gave us easy suggestions to remedy the situation. The result? No more mice! Many thanks for helping us out!

We called ABC Wildlife on a Saturday after moving into our new house and finding a disgusting amount for rodent droppings in the basement. The person answering the phone call was extremely pleasant and reassuring that ABC Wildlife could not only reduce the amount of rodents on the property, but could eliminate with a guarantee the rodents from entering the property. A person was able to come out that day and put down bait stations and give a quote on rodent mitigation. The pricing seemed a little high, but when we found multiple skeletons in the basement, we wanted to act quickly and with confidence that the problem would be solved. ABC Wildlife came out several days later and sealed around the entire house where brick abutted to wood siding, covered vents with mesh, eliminated gaps around air conditioning units and concrete steps where rodents could hide or sneak in. They worked tirelessly and were at the property for a good 6 hours. Since having the mitigation system put in we have had no rodents in the house. Fast forward 5 months and I find a mouse in the flue for the furnace exhaust. I call ABC Wildlife immediately and again, they are informative and reassuring. The offer to send someone that day to remove. When the technician arrives, he is curteous and respectful of the property by wearing booties in the house. He offers to take a look at the bait stations and refill no extra charge. We discuss how the mouse permeated the mitigation and the technician informed me that he was likely there prior to the mitigation judging by the body. That said, they did not charge me anything to pick up the mouse and check the bait stations even though there was not an intrusion of the mitigation system. I hate to say that a mouse would keep me up at night, but I do sleep better knowing that there no rodents in the house due to the mitigation and bait system that ABC Wildlife provided.
