Very satisfied. They were very flexible in arranging a time for the return visit to meet my needs, and the technician Tracy gave me good advice. He found a dead mouse in my garage on his way out, & took care of that and gold me what to look for in case the mouse had any companions left behind!
Description of Work: Critter Control removed a bird nest from the bathroom vents on the side of my house, and installed a cover on the vent. They were very responsive. For the initial work I was not home, but they contacted me to arrange a return visit when i was home, so they could double check inside my attic.

Just fine. After they had caught the raccoon, the left the trap on the roof for several days to see if there was anotheer. The initial charge was $200.00 minus 10% Angies discount. Then it was $75 minus 10% for the one raccoon they caught. Would have been another $69.00 for any more raccoons they caught. We inquired about having them cover the vents where the critter entered and they price was VERY high--almost $1000.00 for the 5 vents. We will have someone else take care of the vents.
Description of Work: We had a raccoon in our attic. They put a cage on the roof and caught the raccoon.

They first diagnosed what was living on your roof, by evidence, and then set traps on the roof, and captured 2 raccoons that were living on our roof. We have not had raccoons since (over 4 years). They also set a trap for a ground hog that was burrowing under the house. There is a cost for the trap and the capture. The ground hog was not caught as it appeared it went away by itself. On another occasion, summer of 2008, they first diagnosed what the signs were in the back yard, planted traps, and caught one mole in our backyard that was tunneling and zigzagging under the grass and leaving dirt mounds everywhere, thereby ruining the grass. Each estimate was reasonable; they checked the property daily and if we were not home, they left a written summary and update on the front door; we would use them again in a minute.

They only took less than a week to take care of the problem. We did not have to monitor their work and only had to deal with some one on the phone. It was easy to use the company.
Description of Work: We hired to get rid chipmunks and holes in an unusual place. They trapped the chipmunks to get rid of them. They monitored the situation for about four weeks.

I always appreciate a service provider who is willing to recommend other companies to contact when they are unable to take on a particular project. For that reason, I recommend Critter Control to my friends who live on the north side of Indy.
Description of Work: I had used this company when I lived in Ohio, so I called them to arrange for them to come out and investigate an animal problem I was having. The lady I spoke with was very nice, when I provided my address, she explained to me that they did not cover my area of town (Franklin Township). However, she provided me with a few other service providers to contact.

They did what they could do and I don't want to knock them. I don't know what else they could have done. The animal was smart enough to not go in the trap. The results were just not what I wanted through no fault of their own.
Description of Work: They came out and set a trap for moles. They also came back out three times to check the traps.

I am very pleased with what they do, but the cost can add up. I will continue to use them however. They are always very conscientious.

They were professional and prompt (and friendly). Tracy knew what he was talking about when he came to the house, and though there were not in fact large mammals, only small ones (mice), he had good suggestions to help us keep the place clean and pest free. Good service, we will use them again (but will not hopefully have to!).
Description of Work: We needed help in determining whether our attic was home to large mammals, since it sounded like they had moved in.

We purchased a home that had had years of raccoon attic infestations and damage. The result was that we have had to replace heating/cooling ductwork and electrical wiring that had been clawed and chewed on. We noticed a raccoon climbing into the chimney Spring 2008. The prior owner had said they had seen raccoons looking at them from the fireplace in the living room. We had heard our dog barking during the night prior to visually seeing this raccoon climbing into the chimney. The fellow from Critter Control climbed up the ladder and tried to get the raccoon out on a Friday. The animal was sitting really low down on a ledge. He was not able to get her out as the chimney was too tall for his tools. We decided to cover the living room fireplace opening with the clear sticky carpet runner protector plastic film for the night. We figured we'd hear the dog bark if the raccoon tried to open the damper and rip the plastic. The fellow did say that the raccoon would climb out in the morning and return again at dusk. My neighbor called us about 8:30am the next morning advising that the raccoon was walking across her yard. By the time we got outside she had walked off and was hiding somewhere. Our neighbor said the raccoon looked very large and waddled-probably looking for a place to have her babies. The fellow from Critter Control came back out and put a temporary wire mesh over the tops until the chimney caps came in. He installed them the next week. All has been great since...knowing that it is one less place for the raccoons to nest. Also, the fellow said that it is not uncommon for raccoons to open the fireplace damper and come into the house. We were glad not to have that problem/event. He also told us that the top area around the chimney openings would need some maintenance soon. Also, we would need our chimney cleaned soon too. Our overall experience was good.
Description of Work: Attempt to get a pregnant raccoon out of the chimney which came out on its own the next day. Temporary coverage of the chimney top with wire mesh. Finally, chimney caps put on to keep raccoons out.

The technician was punctual, friendly and professional. He explained how and what he was treating. The price of the treatment was reduced because we contracted for quarterly exterior pest control.
