THERE WAS VERY LOW ACTIVITY AROUND THE SITE SO AN ESTIMATE WAS LEFT AND I MONITORED FOR A COUPLE WEEKS. ACTIVITY WITH THE BEES INCREASED SO I HAD VARMENT GUARD COME OUT TO TREAT. I HAD USED VARMENT GUARD AT A PAST RESIDENCE TO REMOVE SQUIRRELS IN THE CEILING. I HAVE BEEN PLEASED WITH THEIR SERVICES BOTH TIMES. I MAY BE USING AGAIN IN THE NEAR FUTURE TO RID A BIRD'S NEST IN THE CEILING AND CLOSE THE ENTRY POINT. THE TECHNICIAN THAT CAME OUT TO INSPECT FOR THE BEES AND THE ONE THAT CAME OUT TO APPLY TREATMENT WERE BOTH PLEASANT, COURTEOUS AND KNOWLEDGEABLE.

THERE WAS NO CHARGE FOR HER ADVICE, BUT SHE GLADLY GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE IN CASE THE OVER-THE-COUNTER BAITS WERE INEFFECTIVE.
Description of Work: I THOUGHT I HAD CARPENTER ANTS. PAM CAME OUT AND ASSURED ME THAT MY INSECTS WERE PAVEMENT ANTS THAT WERE MORE ANNOYING THAN DESTRUCTIVE. SHE INSTRUCTED ME TO BUY SOME OVER-THE-COUNTER BAITS AND ALLEVIATE THE PROBLEM MYSELF.

THE DAY WE MOVED INTO OUR HOUSE, WE HEARD ANIMALS SCRATCHING THE CEILING OVER MY SONS' BEDROOM. I CALLED VARMENT GUARD, AND THEY CAME TO THE HOUSE A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER. THEY SET LIVE TRAPS AND, WITHIN TWO WEEKS, HAD CAUGHT ALL OF THE SQUIRRELS, JUST AS THEY PROMISED. THEY PATCHED THE HOLE IN THE ROOF TO ENSURE NO MORE SQUIRRELS WOULD ENTER. THE MEN WHO CHECKED OUR TRAPS, REMOVED THE SQUIRRELS AND RESET THE TRAPS EACH DAY WERE VERY PLEASANT, VERY PROFESSIONAL AND VERY EFFICIENT. I ENJOYED WORKING WITH THEM AND APPRECIATED THE FACT THAT THEY CAUGHT THE SQUIRRELS WITHIN THE TIME FRAME THEY EXPECTED.
Description of Work: THEY REMOVED A FAMILY OF SQUIRRELS FROM OUR ATTIC AND SUBSEQUENTLY SEALED OFF THE HOLE WHERE THE SQUIRRELS ENTERED.

THE WOMAN THAT CAME OUT WASN'T SURE WHAT SHE FOUND, IT WAS SORT OF LIKE A TINY SEA SHELL. SO SHE TOOK A SAMPLE WITH HER TO SHOW IT TO SOMEONE AT THE OFFICE AND THEY LOOKED AT IT. THEY CALLED ME TO LET ME KNOW IT WAS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.
Description of Work: THEY CAME OUT AND INSPECTED FOR INSECTS. I HAD AN UNIDENTIFIABLE INSECT, SO THEY LOOKED AT A SPECIFIC LOCATION IN THE GARAGE WHERE I FOUND THE INSECT.

THE PERSON WHO SCHEDULED THE APPOINTMENT SAID THAT FOR A TECHNICIAN TO COME OUT WOULD COST $70. THAT IS ONLY IF THEY CAME OUT AND WE SAID WE DIDN'T WANT THEM TO DO THE WORK. I FOUND BRUCE TO BE VERY FAIR IN HIS CHARGE OF $30.
Description of Work: I CALLED VARMENT GUARD ON A MONDAY TO ASK SOMEONE TO COME OUT TO INVESTIGATE AND TREAT A SWARM OF WASPS AND/OR BEES THAT WERE IN AN AREA OF LONG GRASS IN OUR YARD. BY TUESDAY MORNING, I KNEW THAT SOMEONE WOULD BE OUT THAT DAY. BRUCE CAME AND DID A CAREFUL EXAMINATION OF THE AREA TO DETERMINE IF THE WASPS WERE NESTING OR FORAGING ONLY. HE DETERMINED THAT POSSIBLY THE BIRD BATH'S WATER AND TALL GRASS WAS THE ATTRACTION TO FORAGING WASPS AND HE DID A THOROUGH SPRAYING OF THE AREA (AROUND 7'X 7')SUGGESTED THE GRASS BE CUT BACK.
