I would definitely call this company again.
Description of Work: I called this company when I found an infestation of ants when I returned from vacation. Guardian was able to come out within just a few hours which I really appreciated! They gave me an estimate which was less than another company I called who couldn't come until the next day. Guardian said they would call for a follow up if I needed it, but there was no pressure or no contract to sign. Much appreciated.

I would highly rate him. I was scared of getting sewers from the neighbors jog. He actually charged me nothing. He actually gave me tips, looked around and cost me absolutely nothing. He checked everything and told me that I didn't even need it at that time. He told me different ways that I could check myself because I was so fussing over about that type of thing. He told me what the ants do and the services they could give but due to rain I would not get that. The way he explained was very nice and he was on time.
Description of Work: I used Guardian Pest Control for pest control about six months ago for ants and sewers.

Their first service was free for mice and then on it depends on what service they do. They put pesticide inside the units and check for activity. They are kind of expensive and they are diligent about resetting appointments. They care about getting the service done. I would use them in the future.

They are great and we like them a lot. It kind of depends on who comes out but they really have a couple of guys who are really great and then the others are sort of average.
Description of Work: We usually use Guardian Pest Control for pest control. The last time we used them was last spring. We had termite control and inspection done in our property.

The initial inspection and confirmation of the problem was on November 21, 2011 and they immediately set traps on top of my garage. The problem was that raccoons had made a hole in my garage roof. They came back each evening to check the traps that Monday-Wednesday, unfortunately they only caught 1 squirrel. They did not work Thanksgiving, the day after or that week end, however they did set up a monitor which would alert them to any activity when they returned the following Monday. On Monday, November 28, 2011 they returned and activity was noted so they set the traps again. (History: there had previously been a tree right next to my garage and once I realized that something was going on atop of the roof I had it cut down. There was evidence of raccoon dung on the roof, so I suspect that the tree was their way up, along with the squirrels). Another unfortunate snare was caught in the trap...a cat, but no squirrels or raccoons. I also requested that they set traps on the inside of the garage as well. They continued to monitor the site for activity, however that Tuesday thru Friday the monitor was undisturbed and nothing else was trapped, which indicated that whatever had been occupying the garage had departed. On that Friday, December 2, 2011 they came and placed a temporary patch over the area and while they were there I had a chance to see the destruction on the inside of my garage, needless to say I was horrified, but that's my problem. Update: I had a re-inspection after a month and the temp patch was still in place. I'm happy to say I will finally have the roof repaired tomorrow (1/3/2012).
Description of Work: Monitor and trap raccoons which had took up refuse in (detached) garage.

all went fine. Only issue I'd say is that on a follow up visit for $50 we asked them to only spray outside, and they charged us the same as spraying for both inside and outside. Now we just get both done since we have to pay for it anyhow.

So far so good....after he left the bees were going away and the ones that went in the holes never came back out. I'm extremely happy.
Description of Work: I have had yellow jackets building nests on the side of my chimney. I have used Guardian Pest previously for a problem with mice in my attic. I called and talked to Jamie, she said the technician could come out the same day between 4pm - 6pm. Ten minutes later she called and said that Joe was on his way now and if I was going to be home. Ten minutes later, Joe pulled up and I showed him the problem with the bees. He went and 'suited' up for the dusting. Joe spent at least half an hour dusting and spraying the holes where the bees were coming in and out of. He said they should be gone in 10 to 14 days, if not give them a call and they will come out again....their work is guaranteed for 30 days. I like the fact that you don't have to sign a contract for them to come back out so may times.

We had some birds that apparently made a nest on top of our chimney and the nest fell in. It fell between the wall of the fire place and the stove. They were babies. We kept hearing them and it sounded like they were in our house. They were pretty much so only that the stove was stopping them from coming in. GUARDIAN PEST CONTROL came when we called them and pulled the stove out, got the birds out and put them on the tree. Then came back and put a cap on our chimney so that it would not happen again. We would use them in the future.

Very well--I would use this service again. No recurrence of problem and technician provided tips on prevention.
Description of Work: Very dense trumpet vine had a very large hornet hive and bush beneath it had a yellow jacket hive. Several people had been stung. Technician was very professional and confident in assessing the situation. Once estimate was accepted, he promptly put on protective clothing and sprayed honets and removed the hive and then topically treated the yellow jackets. This looked very dangerous to me but he survived without being stung.

It ended up in a dispute with another corporation. Guardian considers one week as approximately 3 days. I contracted for traps to be set for a full week and it came out to be equivalent of 3 days work. Mondays were only half the day and Fridays were half a day and they worked the middle of the week. They did get some musk rats. The issue is long over with.

Response from Guardian Pest Control Inc
This client signed up for a trapping program on 2/15/10 to trap for muskrats. The program he was willing to pay for was a 15 CALENDAR day trapping program. It specifically states on the agreement that he signed and initialed that the guarantee was for 15 calendar days and included weekends where there would not be traps present and monitoring would occur. His program expired on 3/1. On 2/15 (Monday) we set the traps and was at his home every day that week checking the traps. On Friday the traps were pulled for the weekend and then reset on the next Monday to be checked every day that week also. The traps again were pulled on Friday for the weekend. During that time we caught and removed 4 muskrats. On 3/1 we told him his trapping program had expired and that we would recommend an extension but the client did not want that. We performed all that was agreed upon in our contract that he signed up for.

He was fine. He put a garbage cover a vent to see that the squirrel does not come back. He did what he was supposed to do and the squirrel went away. I got to know about him through Angie’s list. He was competitive. He was okay.

They were courteous, but I don't feel they were anything special. They were recommending that I put poison in my kitchen because I had a mouse problem. The other thing that I didn't like about them was that they weren't really looking around to figure out where the mice were coming in. When I compared them with the guy that we eventually ended up using, Guardian's initial price was cheaper but the other guy did exclusion work. The other guy was able to figure out where they were coming in. He found exactly where they were coming in and it made the most sense in the world. He didn't put poison in my kitchen. He recommended we try and bait them live and he put them under the floor boards and in between the basement and the kitchen so my children couldn't see them. He did the exclusion work so he came out and within a week he had caught the mice. He had put them in bait traps where they could have survived but they didn't survive and they never came back. Guardian was recommending putting baiting poison where my children were and they weren't doing any exclusion work so I would have had to have them keep coming out and would have had to risk my kids having dead pests on the floor. They didn't find out where the source of the problem was so I felt like I am glad I didn't use them. I don't think my situation would have been resolved as quickly if at all with them. They didn't even do any exclusion work. I am glad I didn't use them. I would give them an average rating. I just didn't feel like they were creative in what their solutions were and their solutions would have required that I locked into some type of long term arrangement and it would have been not as comfortable having baiting in the kitchen. They did give me an estimate and the price they quoted was for the first visit. They were significantly cheaper initially than what the other guy charged. Guardian was very responsive. I don't remember their punctuality being an issue. I would not consider using them in the future.

Because of the size of the hole in the roof, both a large and a small trap was placed on the roof and monitored for about five days to capture any animals using that hole as an entry to their nest. Gladly, nothing was caught. There was no activity. Guardian arranged for a roofer to come and repair the damage. The only thing was it took a while for that person to come and close the hole. Everything worked out well, though. This was my second go-around with a critter, and Guardian helped the first time. If the situation comes up again, I will be sure to call them.

He came promptly within a two-hour window, we discussed what was done last time he was there about a year ago, and then agreed on his services this time. He then proceeded to do the spraying and left after about 45 minutes. I did not stay with him the whole time, but he must have been very thorough because I have not seen any more pests since then except dying ones. The services were performed for the agreed upon price.
Description of Work: He sprayed indoors and outdoors for bugs, mainly for centipedes and millipedes. Said it should also get rid of box elder and lady bugs.
