Thank you for your kind comments. If you've had raccoons before and you have NOT had professional raccoon-proofing, you will probably get them again. Please contact us if you are interested in having this done. We will go ALL OUT to get 'em ALL OUT.

After 4 days, nothing has been caught, I called Dave to inform him of the results. I don't feel like I received anything for my money. If given all the pricing upfront, I would've made a different decision.
Description of Work: I had a raccoon in my chimney stack. Initially I wanted/received a quoted from Dave on what it would cost to physically remove the raccoon if it was still there. I also received a quote on setting a trap with the first catch included. Dave came out, did his inspection, no raccoon present so he set the trap, well what he left out of his quote was that if anything other than a raccoon was the first catch there'd be an additional charge! I felt that was a bit deceptive to tell me after I agreed to let him set the trap instead of before.

We are sorry you were unhappy. Dave explains to all customers, and it is written in our contract, that we cannot guarantee we can catch the animal that concerns you. The reason for this is the mobility and intelligence of animals. For example, the raccoon in your chimney might leave the chimney and be hit by a car and killed. It is also possible to encounter an animal that knows not to enter a trap, even for food. The reason we charge for a non-target catch is to cover the time and bait for the technician to remove the animal, re-bait the trap, and relocate the animal to a spot far enough away so that it cannot return to your home. This is also stated at the top of the contract next to the price for the target animal. I reviewed your contract and this is stated. Dave made at least one additional trip to your home to re-bait and check the traps. Clearly he put in the expected effort to catch the raccoon. We always prefer to catch the animal that is causing an issue for our customer and are usually successful. If we are not, there are multiple reasons this could be. The raccoon may have been disturbed by the movement or be "trap-shy" (i.e., it has previously been caught in a trap and therefore knows to avoid them) and moved away from your home. I hope that is the case. Please accept our apologies for the late response. We have had an issue with our Angie's List notifications which we believe has been resolved.

Dave put out several traps and removed a number of moles. We haven't had a mole back in the yard for about a year. I did not expect that the moles would stay away for that long. He was quick to respond to our call for services, probably would have been even quicker if I had been able to meet with him sooner. He even checked our yard a few times later on to make sure that their were no more moles. I highly recommend the service.
Description of Work: My yard was infested with moles. We live out by Kimmswick in the country and there are lots of moles coming from the nearby woods.

Had a scheduled time for them to come out and investigate squirrels coming into our attic. Apparently after looking at Google Maps they determined that our house was "too close" to the houses around us. They didn't even come out. Our house is no closer together than most City of Saint Louis properties. They advertise themselves as being to handle everything, apparently they cannot/will not. I do NOT recommend this company at all.

I checked Google Street website for photos of the customer's house, knowing from 20 years as a wildlife control professional that some rooflines are inaccessible without special equipment, especially in this neighborhood (Central West End). After careful scrutiny of the Google Street photos, I realized that we could not safely reach all of the customer's roofline without equipment such as a commercial lift. I called the customer several hours before our appointment to discuss the situation. I told him that as a professional, I did not want to make him think we would have easy access when this was not the case. We did not want to disappoint him or surprise him with the cost of a lift, which is several hundred dollars a day. He quickly became frustrated and said, "If you don't want to do the work, I don't want you here." He then hung up on me. I promptly called him back. He did not answer, so I left a voice mail stating that we would be happy to honor our appointment if that was his wish. He immediately sent a text message saying, "You don't want to do the work, I don't want you here." I responded with a text message, "We appreciate your reply; good luck." The customer was not charged and we did not waste his time. He has no reason to be angry at our company. We at ALL OUT Wildlife Control believe our numerous positive reviews speak for themselves. If we cannot do a task professionally and safely with our existing equipment, we will tell the customer and offer alternative solutions. This customer was not open to our suggestions or our desire to do the work with maximum effectiveness and safety. Our advertising states that "we can solve a wide range of (wildlife) problems," not that we can do anything as the customer states. We would never make such a claim and we are surprised that the customer would say so.

We purchased a 100+ yr. old house not realizing that the previous owners did not have a guard on the stove vent pipe. A bird decided to nest in the vent and have babies. An AWFUL smell starting coming into the kitchen from the stove vent (we just knew there was a dead bird). Because the house is so old, and had a remodel by the previous owners, the duct work had been put in during the remodel. There was no way to really get to the bird's nest because of the small opening on the outside of the house. I called 3-4 animal removal companies. Only 1 actually answered and they could not get to us until 5 DAYS!! All Out Wildlife picked right up and came out immediately! I was soooo thankful! The nest was removed, the vent was disinfected, and a guard was placed on the vent so not to have a repeat situation. They even proactively closed up other vents that could be future problems without charging! Dave even gave me advice on some other problem areas he saw from squirrels and birds on the other side of the house and I am having him back to fix those areas as well! So happy with service!! Plus he made a donation on our behalf to a wildlife charity because we found him on Angie’s list!

Dave arrived the same morning I call him due to a bat being in my house. He quickly removed the bat and then performed a house inspection for me, then told me what he could do to keep bats out. He then came back the next morning, as promised, and performed the bat exclusion. He put netting on my chimney and installed a one-way bat door to allow bats out and I haven't had any bats since. Thanks Dave!

I was very pleased with the service provided, especially the punctuality and professionalism. Dave Schmidt met with me the day I called him and the squirrel was trapped that afternoon. There was a problem with the spring load on the trap, so the squirrel got away. Dave repaired the trap the next morning and the squirrel was trapped again and removed that afternoon.

After noticing a broken flower pot and hearing critter noises in my basement , I contacted All Out Wildlife Control. Dave Schmidt was very prompt (much to my relief) and professional, all at a reasonable price. A live squirrel was found, caged and removed to a more suitable home in less than 15 minutes. I would highly recommend this company.

We'd never had a bat in our house before, but after one visited us during the cold-snap this weekend, we decided to have an inspection done. Dave was able to come the day after I called. He arrived right on time and did a very thorough inspection. He also brought some excellent printed material with information about bats and the removal and exclusion methods used by his company. We discussed his findings and he explained his recommendations clearly. He wrote up a 'wildlife entry survey' form that included a diagram of my home, areas that needed attention and a bid for the cost of the proposed work. The recommended procedures for bat removal and exclusion cannot be done at this time of year, but can be started in the spring. We were quite happy with the information that Dave provided, the reasonable bid for the proposed work and the excellent reviews All Out Wildlife Control, LLC has received on Angie's list, so we scheduled to have the work done next spring when the time is appropriate. The cost of service that I listed above is the cost of the inspection and evaluation only, because that is the only work we've had done so far. The fee for the inspection will be applied toward the over-all cost of the project.
Description of Work: Dave came to our house to do a bat inspection, diagnosis, consultation and to provide a bid for services that he recommended.

We selected All Out Wildlife Control because they had good reviews on Angie’s List. In our case it didn’t work out so well. We hired this company to seal up our house from bats, squirrels, and raccoons, and to exclude two nests of bats that were living in our roof. The service included adding wire screening under all the eaves of the roof. We paid an extra $280 to install heavy duty screening to keep out squirrels and raccoons, not just bats. We paid a total of $2,245. The service came with a 3 year warranty. Dave did get rid of the bats. But within a week of finishing the job, a family of squirrels moved into the screened area behind the garage. I got up there on a ladder to inspect the nest. There was a 4” gap in the screening. This was a workmanship problem and the screening job was not completed properly. This was a perfect entry point for squirrels to move in. They just walked right in without doing any chewing. To make matters worse, Dave did not install any screening at all on the west side of the house, where there is an old squirrel hole. When I signed the contract, I had marked the areas needing screening, including the west side of the house. When I told Dave about the squirrels, he said he could remove the squirrels for $229 plus $85 for each squirrel after the first. That would have cost us an additional $500 or more. Since the squirrels moved in because of his workmanship error (the nest sits on the screening material) we thought Dave should take care of the squirrels and patch the gap as part of the original contract and warranty. I wrote Dave a letter describing the problem and sent him photos. I asked him to come by and see for himself. He never came by. He replied that he will not do any more future work on our house because we have lots of trees, a bird feeder, and a pond which attract squirrels. I emailed asking him about the 3 year warranty in case the bats return (which was clearly stated in our contract). He never replied. We were left with a family of squirrels over the garage, a gap in the screening that needs to be patched, the task of installing screening on the west side of the house, and no warranty in case of the return of bats. For the $2,245 we paid them, we expected much better service.

We did not receive an email notification of this review and happened to see it on 12/22. We apologize for the delay in responding and appreciate Angie's List allowing us this opportunity. Customer contracted with us over the summer to remove bats. Our contract was signed and Customer was given a copy of the contract and a diagram detailing the work to be performed. Also on the contract, we agreed to reinforce with ½” hardware cloth the areas we would already be bat-proofing, which was clearly shown on the diagram and described in writing on both the contract and the entry survey. Customer initialed this additional clause, indicating his approval. We did not offer at any time to screen all the eaves of the house. No warranty against squirrel or raccoon entry was discussed or mentioned in the contract. At no time did ALL OUT suggest or promise that our bat-proofing would also be squirrel or raccoon-proof; to the contrary, we informed Customer in several conversations and email exchanges of the likelihood of larger animals entering due to several features of his house and yard. We have never, and would never, attempt to squirrel or raccoon-proof a structure without first being 100% sure that any of those species using the building have been removed. This is not feasible during summer and this was also explained to Customer. From the beginning of our contract, Customer seemed to misunderstand several of the agreements made; to wit, payment terms (which are clearly shown on the contract), materials used (he wanted us to use his hardware cloth, which was not up to our standards), use of his ladder (also not up to our standards, and likely not permitted by our insurance), and work completion schedule (an expected start date was met; subsequent work was performed in as timely a manner as possible. Customer seemed to believe that a strict schedule would be followed, which is often not possible in professional wildlife control). This was a very demanding job, including working on a 40’ ladder on the hottest day of the year. As with every customer, we took pains to ensure that work was done correctly and thoroughly, not necessarily quickly. Our office telephoned Customer on the day before his final payment was to become overdue to remind him of the due date. The terms were listed on the invoice and the contract, including a clause that there will be no warranty work performed on overdue accounts. Customer mailed his payment several days after the overdue date and that is the only reason he does not have a warranty on his bat work. We have performed wildlife control services for almost 19 years and the overwhelmingly vast majority of customers have been pleased with our work, based on surveys, personal referrals, and Angie’s List reviews. We have an A- rating with the Better Business Bureau as well. Typically if a customer is unhappy with our work, that customer has neglected to read or adhere to our contract. We make it a point to go over the contract with our customers very thoroughly, which we did in this case. We are sorry Customer is disappointed, but the work was performed in accordance with our written contract.

Dave arrived at the designated appointment time and then inspected the house to determine where the bats were entering the attic. He then performed the work in two stages. The first stage was the installation of First state was installing some sort of appliance that allowed the bats to leave the house but did not allow them to come back. This appliance or tool stayed in place for 7-10 days and then Dave came back and removed the appliance and sealed up the entire house. He had to remove an awning to perform some of the work and did so professionally. He and Laura were good to work with and I would highly recommend them.

Dave came out on time as scheduled. He inspected the attic of the home, as I thought that we had squirrels in there. He did not find any evidence of squirrels, but did find evidence of mice. (I am certain that we have had squirrels in the past). He supposedly found an area of rotting wood that could provide an entrance for animals and closed it with some galvanized steel nailed over it. As I don't like heights, and did not climb the ladder to see this, and he did not provide any picture, I can not verify this. He inspected the home for mice and found evidence of mice in basement. He placed traps. I asked him to also inspect the attic over a detached garage, as I had seen evidence of animal destruction in there. He told me that the screen over a roof vent had been lifted up and that this was the route of entry. He offered to replace the screens over the two roof vents with a heavy gauge steel wire for the mere price of $150 additional. He was unwilling to negotiate a lower fee, even though he had already rang up charges of several hundred dollars to look over the house and hammer a piece of steel in place over a possible entry point. He just kept repeating "5 year warranty", when I asked for a more reasonable price. I later discovered that the entry point was through a soffit vent that had been removed by a squirrel. Dave missed this completely. I also found out that the screen over the roof vent was intact, and did not truly need to be replaced. I had the gutter cleaning company put in some new heavy gauge wire that I purchased at home depot to make sure that no animals entered through there in the future anyway. They were kind enough to do this for free, during gutter cleaning. (M & P window washing and gutter cleaning, an angies list member). Dave offered to come out and check and replace the mouse traps in the future, at additional cost. I told him that I could check mouse traps and replace them myself, thank you. I was dissapointed in the quality of work that Dave provided as well as the cost.

We appreciate Angie’s List allowing us to clarify our services. We performed services for the customer over 7 weeks ago. In this time he has not contacted us with any concerns. The very large house suffered from long lack of maintenance and a mouse infestation. As I was doing the inspection, I brought several problems to his attention and suggested services and prices to solve them (entry closure, tree trimming, entry prevention at vulnerable spots). His response was that he would have someone else do the work. I described a poorly-built roof overlap area that should be squirrel-proofed. I showed him the material and the work after completing it, with screws and not nails as he attests. This work comes with a five-year warranty against re-entry, which is one of the best warranties in the business. In 17 years as a wildlife professional, I have never been asked by a customer for photographic proof that I had actually done the work I just showed him. Nevertheless, if he asked for a photo, I would have gladly provided several. Mice were evident throughout the attic and in the basement and sun porch. My interior and exterior inspection revealed no evidence of squirrel infestation (which certainly could have changed in the 7 weeks’ time since our service was performed). He admitted to having a chronic mouse problem. I clearly informed him that I would put mouse bait out, NOT traps. A great deal of highly-effective, professional mouse bait was used. One trap was placed, and its function shown to the customer. At his request, and at no additional charge, I inspected the large detached garage and found strong evidence of squirrel infestation. I quoted a price for professional, warrantied exclusion of two roof vents. This type of roof vent is extremely vulnerable to animal entry, and entry is very commonly made without actual damage to the screen. Our price reflects the quality of our materials and workmanship as well as our knowledge and experience, and is competitive with industry standards. Because of our knowledge and experience, we do the job correctly and do not create further problems. Most inexperienced people do not understand the complexity of the situation. The gutter cleaners more than likely placed a screen on the inside of the roof, which creates a prime nesting environment for wildlife, therefore making a problem that did not previously exist. Additionally, the hardware cloth available at Home Depot is too lightweight and does not meet our professional standards. I spent over three hours with this customer, providing quality service that is available only from a qualified Wildlife Control Operator. To quote a colleague, “Quality work isn't cheap, and cheap work isn't quality.” Do-it-yourself wildlife exclusion and removal is comparable to do-it-yourself transmission repair—it is cheaper in the short run, but it will not meet the standards of a certified automotive professional. Consumers go to Angie’s List to find quality services, not cheap services. As evidenced by the other, excellent reviews earned by ALL OUT Wildlife Control, our professional services have made many, many customers happy.

Very Successful Very happy to suggest Dave to others!
Description of Work: First time i called Dave Schmidt was when i had more bats at my fourplex apartment building. One of his competitors had charged me close to $1000, no warrenty and no success. Dave made sure the job was done right and 3 yr warrenty. Last month due to a storm, one of the chimney caps blew off. He came over, replaced it even though he did not do the job in the first place. He did not charge me, his competitor wanted $250! Dave does not gouge! He is good, honest and very knowledgeable of critter control! I highly recommend his services at (636) 623-5567!

He did a really good job. I would love to recommend them. There are no more wasps. He made a follow up trip at no charge. I’m happy with him. He was very thorough. He was very responsive. He came very quickly when I called him the first time. He was very responsive when I told him to get rid of them in the first short. I would continue to use him in the future.
Description of Work: All Out Wildlife Control, LLC took care of the wasp problem for me in April.
