Awesome. Set up the perfect trap. Caught the raccoon on day 1. Advised me of the cost of putting a wire cover over the space the raccoon entered but also told me exactly how to do it myself so I could save about $200. Great guy, great service.

Steve was great and a real pleasure to meet. I was needing a preventive spray for bugs before the heat gets here. He will be coming a couple more times in the year. He was very meticulous and sprayed the inside. Then went outside and used a different chemical. None can hurt your dogs, children or yourself if you were to breathe it in. He put on his plastic footies over his shoes when he was inside. He was careful and neat. I liked his honesty and him overall. I trust him and that's huge to me. I'll know more and will follow up after I see if no bugs come around. Right now, I think the job was thorough and well done. Thanks Steve.

Steve is a one-man army and a pure professional. I would highly recommend his services since he is one of the very best. I hired him to get rid of a bunch of wasps earlier and immediately thought of him when a raccoon took up residence in my chimney. He was able to spot the raccoon hiding in my chimney and went up on the roof and set a trap for him. He told me we might catch it right away or it might take a while. At about 4:00 a.m. the next morning, I heard a lot of commotion on my roof and was happy to see that he trapped the raccoon the very first night. I have a very large, oversized chimney and needed to have a chimney cover custom designed because of the huge size. The chimney cover prevents animals from getting in while still enabling you to use your fireplaces, etc. I did not include that cost here because obviously that money went to the cover maker, not Steve. What was very challenging about fixing the chimney was that it had huge ceramic covers on it that had to be removed. The price I listed here covers the actual trapping and removing of the animal. Steve brought special equipment and chiseled them off them expertly. I later discovered they weighed about 60 lbs. each. Somehow, he managed to climb down the roof and carry these enormous things down with him. He also hauled them away for me. The new cover greatly improves the appearance of the house. I'm very happy with 24/7 Animal and Pest Control. There is never any kind of pressure. Steve does not try to talk you into anything you don't need, he just does what is needed and does it exactly the way it should be. He is extremely nice and easy to get along with.

I want to express how very impressed I am by Steve. I found his pest removal service to be exceptional. He is a friendly individual who takes his job seriously and treats the customer with respect. Steve pays attention to detail and treats your property as if it were his own. I found Steve to be prompt and responsive. You simply don?t find very many service providers (in any field) who are as professional as Steve. Bottom line: I would never call anyone else for my animal and pest removal needs.

Quite a few wasps suddenly took up residence in my vinyl fence posts and I was afraid someone would be stung by them, particularly the neighbor's kids who usually play next to the fence. Steve showed up a few hours after I called which was great. One of my big concerns was that a person would not be adequately protected and would get stung because the wasps were numerous. But in 90 degree heat, Steve put on what looked like the beekeeper suit that my grandfather used to wear so I wasn't worried about him getting stung. He went around the entire perimeter of the yard and found wasps I hadn't even noticed and eliminated them. He also inspected the perimeter of the house and found one wasp nest. He promptly took care of everything, and now 6 days later, I haven't seen any wasps at all. He's a very nice, polite guy and a pleasure to deal with. He has a well stocked truck with all the gear needed to eliminate a variety of pests. I would recommend 24-7 pest control without hesitation.

I called 24-7 Animal & Pest Control after my wife was stung by yellow jackets. I used this company the year before with excellent results at my previous home. Steve came out the next morning with his bee suit, shovel and poison. He dug out the yellow jacket nest while spraying the wasps and applying a powder. He then went the extra mile and walked around my large yard (A few acres) on a hot day, in a bee suit, checking for other nests. Another was found under my deck and he promptly exterminated the yellow jackets there as well. The owner Steve Crafton is a nice guy and does great work at a fair price. I highly recommend him for pest control.

Steve was very professional. We were wanting to get our house sprayed before we had our new baby daughter, but she decided to come early and on the day we had scheduled with Steve. I called him hours before our scheduled appointment and he had no problem letting us reschedule at a later date. We set up a later date about a week later. He arrived on time and was very considerate of my wife while she was trying to take care of the baby. He was very knowledgeable and explained reasons we might be having issues with certain pests. Will be using him for years to come.

Steve is an extremely professional and nice person to work with. He responded to all of my questions and gave me a good idea of where to look for potential problems in the future. Steve had all the equipment I would expect for a professional and seemed very knowledgeable and experienced. He knew what to look for, explained what he was finding, fixed the problem, and didn't over charge for the service. I also appreciated the responsiveness to my call. We scheduled an appointment for the day after I called, and Steve worked around my schedule.

I discovered a nest of yellow jackets entering on my roof and making their way into the house. Within a few hours, 24-7 was at my doorstep and it was clear they are well trained in dealing with bees (bee suit and all). I also liked that they wanted to know what type of bees, and if honeybees, would have led me to someone that could remove the hive and relocate it which means they are environmentally conscious. They did have to return to treat again but I firmly believe that this is not reflection on how well the extermination went but rather it shows they stand by their guarantee. The second time around the gentleman even helped me seal up a few spots where we thought the bees were getting in (with plastic and painters tape), to keep them out of the house until we where sure the problem was resolved. Each time I contacted them it was on the weekend. They truly are 24-7 (one was a 9 pm call and the other 7 am). Would highly recommend and use again.

24-7 checked and couldn't find anything in the damper, and they looked down the chimney and couldn't find anything. However, they did notice that there were openings on top of my chimneys (2 of them) where critters could easily come in, climb down and then back up. They gave us an estimate to cover all openings in the chimney. One of them required a special design due to the shape of the chimney. They came back and installed the "fix" for both of the chimneys, and since that time we've had no problems at all...no more critter noises at all hours of the day/night...what a relief! They did an outstanding job and I am extremely satisfied with their work, with the quality of their work, their responsiveness and punctuality. I would absolutely call them back again if needed, and/or refer them to anyone else needing services they offer.
