Very friendly and efficient service provider. Each unit has at least one cat, so we were concerned that about treatments that would affect pets. We were assured that no treatment would be safe, and we did not experience any difficulties. We were also encouraged to contact them if we were still seeing mice after a day or two. Anytime I have called them, they have been friendly and prompt.
Description of Work: Provided service for a mouse infestation in a 120 yr. old triple decker; went through each unit and the basement, putting down tracking powder in likely spots where mice would appear, and traps in the basement. Also plugged a hole in the foundation where mice could enter.

The company called me right back and said they could send someone over in between jobs because the person in the field was nearby. He also recommended I try to remove it myself to save money but I declined! They called when they were close and the provider was great. He came right in and removed it. I asked him about a few ants I had seen and he recommended a spray I could use first to save money. Great service, great price and helpful in trying to keep the costs down. Highly recommend them!
Description of Work: He removed a hornet's nest and killed all of the hornets from inside the storm window and regular window.

I called Action Pest Control on Wednesday and they called me right back. I spoke with Tim and he explained the process to me of taking care of the ant problem. The guy came out the next day and was able to spray the inside and outside of the house. He also explained the spraying to me and talked about the centipedes with me. He checked my upstairs bathroom because I thought there may be a nest in the wall. He was able to determine there was not a nest but the ants were coming in from a nearby tree. He recommended cutting back the tree branches. He let me know to call them back if I saw anymore ants, which I have not! He also let me know they would send me a letter next year to remind me to have them return to spray again to make sure the ants do not return. The overall process was very smooth, professional and quick. I would highly recommend Action Pest Control and will use them again myself.

I was called 45 minutes ahead of their arrival, he took a look around the house for other nests to be sure that was the only one, and then sprayed the active one as well as another location that I'd seen a nest. I was told it would take 2 days for the product to work, and was given the Angie's list discount without having to give any reminder. Quick and professional, and the wasps are gone.
Description of Work: They came and sprayed a wasps nest behind a shutter that was nearby my side door.

I met with Tim on Thursday April 4 after work and he inspected the basement. He diagnosed the issue as swarmers and recommended the Termidor treatment for treatment. He said it was the best treatment on the market and that he does not use any other product to ensure the problem does not persist. His price quoted was much cheaper than other companies and I decided to go ahead with his contract. We did not settle on an exact date as I was not sure of my schedule, and we agreed that I would call Tim back in a few days to pick a date and time. I called Tim on Saturday April 6 and asked if he could come out the following Friday. He said his schedule was pretty busy, but that he would try and squeeze me in. On Thursday April 11, Tim called and said that he would not be able to make it on Friday but that he would send someone out on Saturday April 13. Chad showed up around 11 AM on Saturday April 13 and went right to work. The entire job took about 2 hours and everything went very smoothly. I was impressed with Action's work and efficiency. My contract also comes with a 3 year warranty, so if the problem continues, Action Pest Control will come back out for free and remedy the issue. I would highly recommend Action Pest Control for any pest issues.

He did a thorough inspection of my home and went around the foundation and filled in a few holes. He was reassuring and professional and guaranteed the service for 6 months. There was a discount for being an Angie's list member - I didn't have to remind him, he automatically applied it. (The owner mentioned it to me also the night before on the phone.) Very satisfied customer.
Description of Work: I called late on Thursday and had someone at my home Friday morning. The man who showed up was friendly and professional. He went through my house and put traps down where needed.

Overall the work provided by Action Pest Control was excellent, timely, reasonable and professional. We were very pleased!
Description of Work: We were very impressed with the responsiveness of Action Pest Control. We had heard noises in the attic for about a week. The exterminator arrived on schedule, treated the attic, kitchen, basement and garage for possible mice activity. It's been a few weeks and we've heard no further noise in our attic. We are pleased that the work was also guaranteed for at least six months.

Luckily we didn't have any more little friends come to visit. Tim provided us with great comfort and he couldn't have been any faster to our house.
Description of Work: We had a small family of squirrels in our attic that made their way into our home. We called Tim Murphy and he came over immediately to help my wife deal with the issue. He couldn't have been anymore responsive. Tim examined the house and even put traps up in our attic. He could not have made my wife any more comfortable with the situation. Really appreciate it!

Very well. Tim responded to my call to set up an appointment - he always seem to very timely in response. He sent out a co-worker (forgot his name!) who helped with the job last year. Very responsive and well-informed and told me not to let the dog out until liquid that was applied outside along the house dried, which would be about an hour. Appreciate that they get back very promptly and are very flexible in scheduling a time to come out and check the property and keep the warranty going. (Warranty goes back to when we found some nesting termites in the downstairs window frame about 3 months after we moved into the home. The homes was treated and preventative is applied annually.)
Description of Work: Apply annual termite control, set traps for small rodents, recheck property and surrounding areas.

Always efficient, informative, timely. Always willing to stop by & have a look if I have a question. Thought I had termites but they stopped by & very quickly identified that it was simply a flying ant problem. Have always performed once a year ant spraying for us along with recommendations on how to avoid issues in the future. Additionally, are always willing to stop back out at no additional charge if initial spray isn't sufficient. They always err on the side of less chemical to treat the problem. Wonderful service and hope to continue doing business with them for years to come.

I have excellent results with them. I am pleased with them. We used them on yearly basis. If we did skip a year, it was because everything was totally under control. I know I will be definitely calling them this year because I already see a lot of bees. I have a lot of bee problems. My neighbor was a beekeeper and I do not know if it is something to do with it. They are extremely professional, reliable, and dependable. They do good work. If I have any problem, I can just call them. They will come back out, if they have to. They take a lot of pride in their work. They really wanted me to be completely satisfied with their service. If I have any problems, they will tell me to contact them. They are very good at getting right back to me.

Work was done on time, at the price quoted, and we have not seen an ant in the last 10 days. Great work!
Description of Work: I called and let a message. Within a half an hour the owner got back to me, listened to my issue (carpenter ants), and we scheduled a service call for the next day. He took the time to explain common issues with this pest and how they would get rid of them. They also offer a guarantee on their work- basically if the ants came back this season Action Pest would come back free of charge.

Excellent advice. Will call again if the problem recurs.
Description of Work: We discovered a bat in our house and became very concerned because we have 2 small children. They called us back right away at 8pm on a Saturday and provided an honest assessment of the situation. I was so freaked out I could have been talked into anything but he didn't take advantage of me and provided me a recommendation to hold off on doing anything at this time. I am so impressed. Thank you.

Chad was the gentleman who came to our home. He inspected our garage and entire home for termite damage (we hadn't yet had such an inspection). He advised us that we did not have a termite issue and confirmed that we did, however, have a Carpenter Ant problem. He sprayed the affected area along with other parts of the house he suggested. The ants were gone within hours and we haven't seen any since. He guaranteed through the end of the season and told us that if the initial spray didn't resolve the issues we could call back and have them come out and re-spray at no additional charge.

OUTSTANDING! Bat appeared 11pm Saturday of a holiday weekend. I called Tim the next morning and though he does not typically work on Sunday he came over (called first to let us know he was on his way). Tim checked out the area to which we had isolated the bat (unfortunately, not a small area and had a many hiding places that were bat friendly) and the attic. Neither Tim or my husband found the bat, but found recent "evidence" in the attic. At dinner time, the Monday holiday, we heard and saw "our friend". Called Tim he said he would be over in the hour, we told him no reason to call first. Within the hour he was there. Bat gone!
