Larry came out to help me identify where several mice were getting into my home and seal it up. He identified a few possible areas that he patched up. When I found that I was still getting some mice in the house months later, he came out again at no additional cost to look at the home again. He found the smoking gun and sealed it up, and I have had NO mice since, so I am very happy. In addition to doing a great job, he was very friendly and informative on all things mice!! Appreciate the help, Larry!

Purchased a deal through Angie's list. The work was scheduled quickly and owner was on time. He was friendly and took care of the problem. The reason I gave a B's rather than A's is because after he was done (in the garage where the work was done), he walked across our deck and stepped into house leaving foot prints from the pesticide all over his shoes. It's not the end of the world but we have young kids and a dog and it's a detail that seems obvious in that line of work. That being said, the garage was in the deconstruction phase and he may have figured everything was a mess anyway and he didn't have to worry about it.

[Member Name Removed]: Sorry about the mess. I don't recall your home from last Spring but I try not to leave anything messy. I seriously doubt that the footprints contained any pesticide. I didn't hear back from you after the treatment so the carpenter ants must have gone away after the treatment. If you notice any ant activity this winter or spring just let me know since the application is guaranteed for a year after the treatment. Larry

In my previous home I had paper wasps invade my soffits every spring. Larry came out and sprayed and it kept them away! In another house in St. Paul we had pharaoh ants which Larry identified and and treated in one application. In my new house there were signs of mice and Larry plugged up holes, set up traps and gave us advice. We've had no mice inside. We also had ants under the concrete slab side of the house in the winter and nothing I was doing to control them was working. Larry treated for the ants twice and within 3-4 weeks we only saw dead ants. We've had no ant sightings since! Larry is the nicest guy and so knowledgeable about all types of pests. He explains everything he is doing and is very thorough with his work. I hope to never have any pests but if I do I know who to call!
Description of Work: I've used Larry for a few years for all of my pest problems and he is great to work with. He's helped with wasps, mice, regular ants and pharaoh ants.

Overall A+. We purchased a deal on Angie's List and they called the same day to schedule the appointment and offered to come the next day but were willing to work around our schedule. They arrived early and stayed until the job was complete. I felt 100x better after their visit knowing that we were working toward an end resolution. I felt that they were sincere in offering a follow up visit if we found new droppings, etc after a set period of time to re-check the premises to ensure no entry points were missed. However, based on their inspection, I have good feeling that we're going to pest free soon!
Description of Work: The father/son duo was knowledgable, friendly, professional, and personable while dealing with our pest infestation. They completed a thorough inspection of my home both inside and outside, identified several points of mice entry and filled/patched those holes to prevent further guests. They also set traps, gave helpful suggestions/recommendations and instruction on what was needed for follow-up.

They arrived a half hour early which was a nice surprise. When they arrived they first listened to the problem, and did an inspection of the outside of the house. After the outside inspection they went into detail as to what they saw, what type of mice we had, and how those mice behave. They then inspected the house and focused on the rooms where they found the entry point in the attached garage. I showed them were the mice were caught within the basement. They found other locations in the basement that had evidence of mice being there. Twelve traps were set, and they described in detail how mice move within the home. What's crazy is that we haven't had any mice since they came. Not one of the traps have gone off (I did catch two in the house the weekend prior to their visit), but no new mice. The weather has turned bitterly cold, and nothing has gotten in. So far so good!

I have had many pest controls companies out but continued to find 2 mice a week in my crawl space. West Side found a GIANT HOLE that everyone else had missed and blocked it. Haven't had a mouse since then. It was big enough for a small "grizzly bear" to crawl through as he told me. Enjoyed his efficiency and promptness. He said to make sure I call him if I find another mouse. I would use him in the future.

Larry is very professional. He arrived at the time he said he would, and got right to work. He made sure I understood everything he was doing and to call him with any questions or if I see anymore after the first couple of days. We caught 9 more mice after he closed up the entry points and we haven't had any evidence of them since. The 1 year guarantee is excellent and far exceeds any other competitors promise.
Description of Work: Checked the exterior walls of the house and found a couple of points of entry for the mice. He closed them off. He then layed traps in the areas we had seen evidence of them of caught them in the past.

Excellent. The service is professional, friendly, with a quick response to scheduling service and early arrival for the appointment. Most importantly, Larry and his son know exactly what they are doing and were thorough, efficient in finding and sealing the entry point, and finally, explaining the situation fully so that I was completely assured that the problem had been solved. Their work has been 100% each time they have been out to our house.

We had Larry out initially in the summer to take care of a carpenter ant problem. He educated us as we walked around the property and he sprayed for all possible ant nests and showed us how to detect them. Within a few days they were dead and gone. We learned that only a couple poisons work effectively on these types of ants and proper ways to control them. We haven't seen any since and it's been 7 months. $149 well worth it and guaranteed. We called him back again for the cold months coming and we had seen evidence of mice in our basement and our garage. We took advantage of another Angie's List offer for mouse control. We knew we wanted Larry back. He did a walk around the outside and patched hole entrances and told us what to look for. He came inside and set traps to catch any mice that remained inside. That evening we caught 4, reset the traps and caught another and now haven't seen any since. We feel good that we will not be the residence of mice this winter. Again, he guaranteed his work so we will see what happens this spring, but we feel confident that the issue is resolved.

I was at your home in 2013 for a rodent treatment. As I recall I found several holes in the foundation around your home that I sealed. I also put some traps inside the house and put a mouse bait station on the outside by the A/C unit. Unfortunately, you have a deck across the back of your home that prevents a complete inspection of your home's foundation and there can certainly be mouse entry points there that can't be seen or fixed until you have some of the decking removed next to the foundation. I didn't spray any chemicals around your home to repel mice. I don't know of any such materials that are remotely effective for any period of time. I wish there were such repellents but I suspect that any repellent that would stop mice would make your home equally repellent to you. Refilling/replacing the mouse bait station on the exterior would help to eliminate the mice that are coming to your home looking for a safe place to spend the winter and is probably the best solution to your mouse issues. If you elect to have some decking removed next to the foundation give me a call at 763.497.6617 and I'll take a look at that area of your foundation. Larry

I could tell that Larry knew what he was doing. He has a special type of mirror he uses to find holes where mice are getting into your home. He filled up 5 holes with special type of steel wool that, unlike regular steel wool, does not rust. Then he put up 4 traps inside my home. It didn't take him very long to do this. Then he has guaranteed the job he did for a whole year. What a relief!! Last year I hired another pest control company to do what he did. I think they were only able to find one hole. Then they set up traps outside to catch mice before mice entered the house. This first company, Wild Life Management, charged me $500 to fix mouse and spider problem. The spider problem went away but mice problem did not because they only found 1 hole instead of the 6 holes. Then they wanted to charge me an extra $150 to return just to set up more traps. I said no. My impression is that Wild Life Management specializes more in squirrels, racoons, etc than mice. So my experience with this company, WEST SIDE PEST SOLUTIONS, was definitely preferable, also more reasonable, than the prior company.

Larry is amazing to work with and is extremely effective! He is punctual, professional, and explains everything he is doing to help educate you on the issues/resolutions. He asked pertinent questions and then walked the entire perimeter of our house to plug any potential areas where the mice were getting in. He also provided outdoor bait traps to help with the situation and gave us a guarantee for his work. I am not usually one to write reviews (good or bad) on people/products, but I felt it necessary to help others in finding a solution for mice extermination. Use this company and you will not be disappointed!

Super fast response and turn around. Came out quickly to do the job, removed 5-8 good sized wasp and hornet nests around the house and yard shed. No sign of the wasps any more and I couldnt even go in the yard shed without having 5+ wasps flying around and at me! Would use and recommend again and again.
