Larry was great. We were having landscaping done when we discovered the nest late in the afternoon. Larry was able to come out the next day to treat the nest so that the landscaper could finish the edging/sod.
Description of Work: Treated a wasps nest that was in the siding of the house.

I can't say enough good things about the service West Side provided. Larry & his son came out right away the day after I called, were extremely professional, extremely thorough (climbing around my house, garage, and foundation even though it was -20 degrees (!)), and provided me with a multi-tier solution to the mouse issue (plugging a few potential entry points, setting traps, placing external bait). I was thrilled with all they did, and at a very reasonable cost. They also provide a guarantee for their service. So this summer when I discovered a mouse in my basement, I called and again they were right back out (and at no charge). This time they found a hole between my front step and concrete landing in front of my house, which they couldn't have found in the winter due to the snow, and plugged that (and replaced /set traps, etc.). And while he was here, he also proactively took care of some wasps nests he had noticed (I hadn't mentioned them). They are really nice guys, really professional experts, and stand by their service to ensure their clients are happy. I'd highly recommend them and will use them for any future needs...
Description of Work: West Side initially came out in January, 2015, to investigate a mouse issue I was having in my basement. They followed up again when I found another mouse this summer.

He was friendly, professional and punctual. He did a good job explaining how ants live and why they do what they do. He also took a mirror and looked under my siding to see if mice were entering in to a part of my home (because I saw a mouse when moving things so he could spray).
Description of Work: He came to my house and sprayed the perimeter of my home.

I sent West Side Pest Solutions a message via Angie's List on Sunday 10/11/15 stating my problem area and that I needed his pest control services again. I was not expecting a reply until sometime on Monday or Tuesday. I was pleasantly surprised to receive a message reply just a couple hours later stating that he would be here the next afternoon. Rain and wind prevented him from applying treatment so he sent a note letting me know he would not be out but will arrive first thing Tuesday morning. As promised, Larry arrived early morning and sprayed around my home. Always professional and punctual. I will continue to use West Side Pest Solutions. I trust their service.

He was just amazing. He said the ants should go away within a week or so and that if they came back at all to call him, he was just really nice, punctual, knew what he was doing, didn't treat me like I was wasting his time (a lot of contractors do), and they really did go away immediately and I haven't seen a single ant since July. If I ever had an issue again at this house or another I would call him immediately.
Description of Work: Sprayed inside kitchen area where we were seeing carpenter ants, adjacent deck, exterior foundation of house and in the garage. He explained how carpenter ant colonies work to me and what to look for in the future. The treatment was supposed to last for up to 6 months, so far so fabulous.

I'm kind of mad at them. We bought a new house and had them come out to look at stuff. My husband asked them, "Do you think the house ever had a mouse problem?" He was like, "No. You're good." And then a few other people started coming out and looking around and there was a huge mouse infestation in the basement. A pest guy should have caught that, right? He should have seen the holes in the insulation and mouse tracks in the basement. If you're a pest guy you probably should pick up on that. He just came here and sprayed stuff for spiders and he was gone.

Sorry to hear about your mouse problem. I remember treating your home for spiders and telling you that I had never treated your home for mice prior to your purchase of the home. In my experience, 9 out of 10 homes in Plymouth built in the 90's have had mice at one time or another. Holes in the insulation above the sill plate in your basement are not necessarily an indication that there is a current mouse problem. I don't recall seeing any mouse droppings in your home but you should check the home inspection that you received when you purchased the home. Their inspection would have included a check of the attic area where mouse droppings could be found even after a thorough cleaning of the house by previous owners. While I do look for signs of a rodent infestation or any other pest problem when I perform an insect treatment, a proper inspection of a home for mice is a very time consuming and includes a detailed inspection with specialized equipment of the foundation and the bottom level of the siding around the home. Hopefully, you have had this inspection performed and entry points sealed to prevent any future problems. Best of luck. Larry

Larry stopped out and did an awesome job. Very knowledgeable and found the exact spots the mice were entering our home. We had one more mouse show up a few weeks after he first showed up, but he stopped out right away and did a double check. No visitors since. Would definitely use West Side again.
Description of Work: Inspected interior and exterior of home for rodent entrance. A couple entry points were found and plugged. Also set traps inside.

I purchased the special on spraying for ants after I saw some large winged ants around the house/yard. Larry came out on the day that I requested and sprayed around the exterior of the house, garage and the yard. I had showed him one of the ants that I caught and he confirmed that it was a carpenter ant. Larry was very professional and friendly. He located the probable origin of the carpenter ants and explained that my home was within their range; however, since the origin was not on my property, he couldn't spray them there. So far I haven't seen anymore ants.

Larry was great! He responded quickly to my call, and was able to come out the next day. He confirmed that we only had one next on the property, and was able to take care of the issue within 15 minutes, while being careful not to contaminate any of the flowers nearby. I appreciated the time Larry spent to chat with me about the type of hornets we had, and his guarantee to return if any remained. Needless to say, that wasn't required as he did a great job the first time. I would gladly reach out to Larry again if needed.
Description of Work: We had a next of yellow jackets under the siding near our front door. I contacted West Side Pest Solutions to exterminate them, and check the surrounding areas for other nests.

I located West Side Pest Solutions from "the Big Deal" offering. A prompt return email and telephone call from Larry (Sr) set our appointment in motion and within 24 hours we were free of our Yellowjacket friends who had set up residency in the suspended ceiling in our home. Larry found and treated the outside entry point and inspected the inside area discovering the indoor basketball sized nest in our lower level suspended ceiling. A fogging of the area allowed him to open the ceiling and remove the large sized nest. Time from arrival to departure was about 1 hour. Larry followed up with an email that same evening detailing what our next steps as a homeowner should be to eliminate the access point. We are VERY pleased with the entire experience and definitely recommend West Side Pest Solutions to those seeking pest control services.

I did the mouse treatment in March, 2014, on your townhome. You were hearing a scratching sound in the wall. Townhomes with shared walls with other homeowners are always very difficult to deal with since the problem can originate in a neighboring unit and unless you can get your homeowners association to get involved there aren't any good solutions to this type of problem. Rodents like mice can easily move between townhomes using attic areas, plumbing lines, electrical lines, etc., so even though your home may be sealed around the outside you can still have problems. Without permission from individual homeowners I can't perform any inspections on neighboring units for signs of rodents. I don't see that I ever got another message from you about this problem so I hope that your issues were resolved. Larry

Service was excellent. We knew of one wasp nest in our gutter on the 2nd story and were unsure if there were more. We have had a lot of wasp activity in the yard and wanted to make sure this was taken care of. I called a larger outfit and they wanted almost 3x what West Side Pest Solutions had advertised on Angie's List. I called West Side Pest Solutions and Larry Jr. was able to fit us in same day. He took his time to inspect the property and educate me on the different types of wasps in Minnesota. He inspected all of the gutters and located a second nest. Larry treated both nests and now the wasps are gone! Very pleasant to work with, highly recommended!

I'd just moved into my new house and discovered an active wasp nest under an eave. I purchased the service as part of an Angie's list deal. Having just moved, I'd forgotten to update my address, so Bill (I'm horrible with names, but I'm pretty sure that was his name) went to my old house, which I felt terrible about. He was so nice about it, though. The old house was in Eden Prairie and I was in Bloomington. He drove up without a complaint and was so friendly. I had expected him to be a bit crabby after the address mix up. He not only got rid of the nest I had called him on, but he discovered a possible nest inside one of the roof gable vents and sprayed up in there as well. The nasty buggers are now completely gone. I would definitely use him again and would recommend him to others. Amazing service!

They were fantastic! I had contacted them to schedule an appointment and asked for an appointment within a day or two which I thought could be unrealistic. They were very quick to respond to me and just as quick to get out to the house. They were very polite and great price compared to other pest control places I have called. I know people who have used them in the past as well and all say positive things. i would highly recommend them!
