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.
Description of Work: The technician exterminated a nest of yellow jackets under the foundation of our garage. He also treated the perimeter of the exterior of the house and spot treated in the kitchen for small ants.

They did a great job. They were on time and the service was good. The price that they gave me for the house call was a bit expensive but the work that they did justified the price. I would use them again if i had to.

They removed the animals, and then filled the hole. It took over a week as they wanted to make sure that they got every last one out. They closed the hole where they were getting in at. They really had to dig down deep and placed a heavy metal fence material. They put it in the whole length, approximately 20 feet, so that the animals would not dig anywhere else. They filled everything with top soil and made sure it looked nice. Their price was very reasonable.
Description of Work: We called them to remove some type of vermin we had under the house.

They are excellent. They come out as soon as they can. We had a raccoon problem, they got into our attic and Critter Control set a trap and would be back to check it everyday. They are thorough and their results are great and they make suggestions to critter proof your house.

I had raccoons in my chimney. At first the technician tried to trap them on my roof, but the mother escaped. The babies were down near the damper and could not get out, so the technician removed them from inside my house. He then installed chimney caps. Everything was fine, except that there were four babies and he only removed three. Obviously, the remaining raccoon died, so I have had a foul odor and flies in my house.

The work they did was great. They came out when they said they would. They verified there wasn't a possum and gave me some options for what kind of barricade I could choose. They put it up when they said they would. I didn't compare prices.
Description of Work: I thought I had a possum living underneath my deck. They came out and verified that there wasn't a possum or if there was one he wasn't there anymore. They put some kind of barricade under the bottom part of the deck so that nothing else could get underneath.

The first day he found the spot the raccoon was coming in and put a trap up. The next day, a raccoon was in the trap and he had removed it that morning. He put another trap up in case there might be more, but we were lucky he caught a male. Once we communicated that we didn't hear any more noises, he took the trap away and put a temporary block that did keep out the animals. It took another 2-3 weeks before he could do the permanent repair to the soffit, but the July 4th holiday was in the middle of that time. He apologized for not being able to come back out for the repair. Overall, we are really happy we could find someone to not only trap and remove the animal (which we had done with a previous raccoon entering our attic at one point) but also to repair the area to keep them out (which we tried to do without much success). When he was repairing, he found tons of walnuts so he discovered that squirrels had also been getting in. He tried matching our paint for the repair and luckily I happened to come home while he was there so he could use some we already had. He cleaned up all of the walnuts and insulation from our roof and yard.
Description of Work: Tracy did an attic entry inspection, trapped a raccoon, and repaired the entry spot in the soffit. All of the work was performed without us having to be at home, so was really convenient. We were given all pricing up front and did receive an Angie's List discount, so the price may have been a bit lower. Everything was right on estimate.

Tracy came out and he cleared out the nesting and did a nice professional job patching where the birds were getting in. He even painted the patching to match my trim so it is barely noticeable. I recommend them highly.

Company quoted a general service call price with Angie's List discount. A worker called ahead to coordinate a time to meet that day. Worker came out and worked in the rain to remove bird's nest behind siding and brick of house. He was very professional and did very high quality work in a minimum of time. He made all repairs of trim and closed off access hole and caulked it up.

VERY well. We were extremely pleased and highly recommend this company for rodent removal and prevention. They not only got rid of the current population, they also diagnosed the problem and solved it by working on the probable entry points. No more mice scratching and scampering around in our attic!
Description of Work: We called Critter Control in the early fall because we heard mice in our walls and attic. We had a mice problem the previous winter and were unable to successfully eradicate them on our own. I had a difficult time reaching someone at Critter Control's phone number. (Though I haven't had a problem reaching anyone since then. It was probably a fluke.) Someone came to our house the very next day and diagnosed the problem and probable entry points. He set bait and returned to fix shingles on our roof and something with our gutter. The fees for these visits were separate than the monthly fee of $49 I noted above. Because we were so happy with their service, we contracted to have them come monthly for maintenance. I heard one mouse the night after the first visit, and haven't heard a single mouse since then. They got the job done!!!!!!

We realized a mother raccoon had a family in our attic. We called Critter Control to take care of the issue. They were prompt, but it did cost about $200 just to have them come out and look at the situation, which was a little pricey. The technician set up a live trap on the roof and we waited. The next day the technician came again to check on the trap, still no luck, so he replaced the bait. The following day, Randy, our technician, caught the mother raccoon with the live trap. Since she had babies in our attic, Randy went into our attic with a box and scooped out all four of them that were buried in our insulation. The price ran $65 for the adult and $25 for each baby. Randy was very friendly and courteous. He suggested that due to the damage, we look into getting out insulation removed and new put in its place. He provided a free estimate for this service from Critter Control.
Description of Work: We had a mother raccoon bust into our attic and have babies. Critter Control came out for an initial diagnosis of the situation and set up a live trap on our roof. Eventually they captured the mother via a live trap and went into the attic to remove her babies. They also provided a free estimate on having all of our insulation removed and replaced due to the raccoon damage.

My cat and I both noticed a raccoon in my fireplace. It had been there 3 or 4 months. I called Critter Control, they were very prompt. They were able to force him up my fireplace so they did not have to remove him forcibly. If they forced him, he would have been euthanized which would have been an additional charge. They did charge me for the animal removal charge even though they did not remove the animal from the property.
