TERRIBLE! The gal that showed up was EXTREMELY friendly and kind, however, that's the only good thing I have to say about their service. They charged me 300.00 dollars to put a cardboard box in my pond and they never came back! The box has since deteriorated and I'm out 300.00! I might as well have lit a match to 300.00. I'm so disappointed. And frankly, I am shocked that they sent me an Angie's List Review Form. Really?? They don't realize they robbed me of 300.00? I am sure they're great with rodents and I can see they other pleased customers. Maybe in my case, they should've turned down the job. The only way they could make this right is to give me my money back because they did not provide me with a service.
Description of Work: I discovered that I had at least 2 snakes in my Koi pond. I wanted them identified to determine how dangerous they may be and I wanted them removed. NOTE: They were NOT simple Garter snakes.

Critter Control was called in October 2013 for scratching sounds in attic. They found evidence of bats in the attic during the $180 inspection and quoted $680 to exclude existing bats and to repair areas where bats could get in. Exclusion work was performed as promised, though work was not aesthetically pleasing--foam was visible and unattractive and unattractive black metal was used on a white house in one location; foam was also sprayed inside attic, which is not common or advised. $2800 of insulation was removed/replaced after bats were excluded. Within a couple months of re-insulation, bat noises and droppings were back. Critter Control came back multiple times (no additional charge) to follow up and try to address ongoing problem, but were unable to figure out where bats were getting in. At one point, a bat got in my 6 year old son's room at night and he needed rabies shots ($17,500). After this incident, Critter Control told us that the bat did not need to be tested and that my son would know if he had been bitten. His doctor was furious about this advice and said that all bats found in a sleeping child's room should be tested, and that bat remediation companies should definitely know this policy. During 2014 and 2015, Critter Control kept coming out to the house, but was unable to exclude the bats. I was very patient and positive during this time because they were responsive, professional and did not charge us additional money, but they did not solve the problem. This spring (2016), when the bats woke up again and we heard noises in the walls, I called again, but they did not call me back this time. I called out another company who found $500 worth of obvious work that was missed and clear locations where bats could get in, that were visible even to my naked eye when pointed out. I called Critter Control back to see if there was any way to get some of my money back for their initial $800 of inspection and work, since they clearly missed key areas, and I was told on the phone that they don't promise that a house they work on will be bat free, they just promise that bats won't get in where they've done work. To an extent, I understand this point, but if obvious gaps remain along the chimney and clear gaps persist in the ridge vent, then I do not feel that their inspection and repairs were adequate or complete. I understand that no company can promise that you will never have another bat, but given that we've paid almost $4000 to this company in the past 3 years (in addition to a $2500 deductible for rabies shots) and have had continual bat activity during this time, I feel entitled to at least the money for the initial inspection to refunded since they did not find key areas of access in that inspection, as promised. The office manager did tell me on the phone today that they would come out and look to see what had been missed, but at this point I have lost confidence in the company and would prefer to have some of my money refunded to put towards another company. Though I did find everyone in the company that we worked with responsive and helpful until today's phone conversation, I cannot recommend them because of what clearly seems to be glaring gaps in their inspection and identification of essential repair work.
Description of Work: Bat exclusion, fixing areas where bats could get in, removing soiled insulation and re-insulating attic.
