Came to my home exactly when they said they would. Called first. Checked the attic to see where the bats were then put a screen on the outside of the vent (peak) to keep the bats from returning to that spot. Took about an hour to do the work. I had a 10% off coupon for Angies' List members, that I got off the Angie's List website, but Josh told me they did not accept Angie's List coupon for wildlife removal-only for bugs :( That was the whole reason I called them in the first place was because of the 10% off coupon. I was not happy about that. The next time I will be sure to ask right at first.
Description of Work: Had bats living on the outside vent of the attic against the attic screen.

The man came out and inspected my home, he thought that I could probably caulk a few certain areas myself to remedy the problem. I did and it worked; I have not had the ant problem since. He didn't even charge a service fee. He also checked for termites while here and left a brochure that showed the difference between winged ants and termites, and was able to find that they were ants.
Description of Work: I had them out to check for ants.

Gold Seal did a nice job. I was 8 months pregnant at the time of service, so I was asked to leave the home for about 3 hours while the spray treatment dried indoors. My husband stayed at the home. The company was to treat the interior and exterior of the home, but only treated the interior. They charged us the full amount. When my husband told me this, I called Gold Seal on the next business day, explained the situation, and the company sent another representative out the next day to treat the exterior of the home at no charge. It has been about 2 weeks and our ant problem is gone!
Description of Work: Gold Seal sprayed our home interior and placed pellets around the exterior. They were called mainly for a problem with ants in the kitchen and sunroom.

I can't speak for Gold Seal's services, but I can say that it's apparent that they simply value good service, and for that, I will go to them first the next time I have a problem. Thumbs up.
Description of Work: I called about an insect problem I was having and spoke with the service manager (Phil?). Gold Seal offered treatment for the problem, but Phil went on to explain that it was something that I could actually treat effectively on my own. He then went on to explain in detail how to do it, when to do it, etc. I was fully prepared to have them perform the treatment, but I'm now going to give it a shot on my own. My point in all of this is that there are very few companies out there today that value service so much that they're simply willing to be helpful and give good advice, even at the expense of some profit.

They were able to get me on the schedule quickly and arrived on time. The gentleman worked efficiently and addressed all of my concerns. Having a small child as well as a family pet, I wanted to make sure the spray was safe for both of them. They also provide a guarantee should I see any more spiders within the specified timeframe. They will come back out to my home at no additional charge.
Description of Work: I had many large spiders on the outside of my home and smaller spider varieties on the inside.

Have not seen any ants since, so I'd have to say that they did very well. Since we noticed the ants on a Saturday of a holiday weekend, we paid holiday rates. I knew that going in so there is no complaint about it.

Although he found nothing up there, I was still very happy to find that out and know that both my attic and roof had no places of entry.
Description of Work: Darrel called earlier and we set up a time to meet at my condo. He was right on time. He checked out my attic because I heard sounds up there that I thought was some kind of animal. He also got up on the roof and inspected all areas for any places of possible entry.

After describing the problem in detail, he explained that I did not need their services. You can kill them off with something as simple as Windex. Based on my description, he said that they were not termites or carpenter ants, that they were just common ants and are doing no damage. He said that they will be gone within a few days. I was very impressed with his honesty and professionalism.
Description of Work: I called them about some flying ants that I had seen on my porch.

I found this vendor on Angie's List & contacted initially for a quote. Spoke with employee who was not having a great day & it came across in the tone of the conversation. Was very surprised as reports on Angie's List raved about this vendor. Called company back as a courtesy to advise that I would be filing a report on Angie's List that was not positive. Within 10 minutes, I received a call from the owner, Elia Levin. Elia apologized on behalf of the employee and did everything above and beyond to earn my business. Even with the 'discount' I was still concerned with my comfort level of allowing the employee to perform the above work. Elia, assured me that the employee was a professional and did his work very well. Elia went so far as to drive to the west side while the work was completed. The employee, Cory, was in fact great...did an outstanding job...and I will never hesitate to use this company for any future needs. Elia's focus on customer service is a rarity!!!!!
Description of Work: Birds and nests removed from attic. 3 vents sealed with galvanized metal in order to ensure no return. Hole in the soffit sealed.

I am extremely pleased with this company. They not only sold me a fantastic roach exterminating gel, but they explained in detail (in a friendly manner) how to use it. They swore that their product works, and boy were they right! I have not seen a roach now for days, nor am I finding evidence that any still exist. They said it could take up to 3 weeks for me to not see any bugs but the product is so good that it kicked in quickly (in 2 weeks) and with a vengeance!! (I had unfortunately wasted several weeks before contacting them by trying over-the-counter products from another company. This meant that I lost a lot of time getting the pests under control because of the products from this company do not work!!) Bottom line:this company knows their stuff, and I would highly recommend them!!
Description of Work: Gold Seal offers both in-home pest elimination services, as well as, selling products for the "do-it-yourself." I decided to try to avoid getting into big costs by first attempting to eliminate roaches by myself.

I really appreciate that I was told that an exterminator was not what was needed.
Description of Work: I contacted Gold Seal Pest Control Co. and took about five little pellets to them. The pellets could not be identified by the people there at that time so I left them. The next day, the man I had talked with rang me to tell me that the pellets were fly pupae, that I would not need an exterminator, that what I did need was to find whatever rotting organic substance was in or close to the house, to get rid of it, to inspect all of my carpets and rugs, and to remove and destroy all pupae found. I have not found any rotting organic substance, but the pupae found has been destroyed. So far I have had three flies show up and I am hoping for no more!

I was very pleased. Ants, and not terminates were identified as the problem. The representative told of some simple things to do, thus avoiding a costly visit to accomplish the same thing. A problem with carpenter bees was noted and he recommended that this area be sprayed in the Spring to correct the problem. Action at this time would accomplish nothing and be a waste of money. The representatives candidness and honesty was refreshing and appreciated. They will be contacted in the Spring for services.
Description of Work: The representative surveyed potential damage and recommended corrective actions.

They were very upfront and told us that there is not much they can do about it considering we have a dog. They said that usually other animals such as rabbits or the pets get hurt more than the mice. They were very kind and gave us some suggestions.
