Trapper John

Description of Work: Removal of Squirels, We have a semi-attached house. We were having lots of squirels running in between our ceiling and the attic floor between our house and our neighbors. It was the scariest experience. I had no idea that these critters could invade a house like that - we are first time homeowners. So we hired the same "extrerminator" the neighbors used to remove the squirels. However, the neihgbors mentioned that the had hired him several times before and that caught my attention. How come this problem is not resolved?. We hired him anyway and after spedind quite a bit of money I asked if we're getting to the end of this and he said no they'll come back again. He indicated that our situation could get better if we cover the "holes" that we have in the roof. I thought to myself, how does this man know we have holes in the roof if he hasn't check the roof? So I went to Angie's list and reseached animal removal. That's when I found Trapper John - my husband spoke with our neighbors and they agree to let Trapper John cehck their property as well. I called Trapper John and explain our problem. He basically educated my as to why the squirels were not gone - the man we hired was an exterminator - not a trapper. He agreed to come to our house and to our neighbor's house in order to assess the issue. Upon arrival, he told me that to do his assesment he didn't need to enter our house at all. He can see what the problem is and where its located just by walking around both properties! The exterminator we hired, had to come into our house all the time (so we had to take time from work to be present) and even broke a wall in our attic to be able to "trap the squirels". Trapper John assesed the situation and came back with the following: He said we didn't need to do anything, our house roof and walls have no wholes as the exterminator said. He only saw one area near the chimmey that could potencially become an issue and offered to fix it for $250 however, he said it could wait if we wanted to but eventually needed to be fixed - we decided to take care of it right away. Trapper John said the problem was in the neighbors house. Once their problem is fixed, we would have no issue. Needless to say our neighbors hired him on the spot, he gave them a warranty of a year or two - not sure - and thank G-d we haven't had any squirels since. He did all the work from outside the house. The impresive thing was not only he removed the squirels and gave a warranty, but, he could have told both of us we had issues and charge the same fee to both families, for squirel removal and we would have paid for that becuase in our ignorant view we both had the problem. Trapper John was extremely honest and told us they were coming in thorugh the inside of the neighbors house. He indicated that once the squirels in the neighbor's house were removed and he fixed the issues, we would have no problem. I highly recomend Trapper John - he will remove the crittes and in a fast, efficient and honest manner!

Description of Work: Closed the space between my awning and my neighbors awning and cleared out the nest that the squirrel was building.

Description of Work: I had a family of raccoons that had taken up residence in my attic. They would wake me up early in the morning and run arond like crazy throughout the day. I knew they were damaging my attic. I searched Angie's List John was quite thorough in his procedures; first he checked to locate the entry points the raccoons were using, then he closed them all. I had quite a few openings and he took care to locate each and every one of them. In addition, there were tree limbs near my house which the raccoons were using to gain access to my attic and John trimmed them at no additional charge. I was very pleased with the service John provided. I would reccomend ‘Trapper John’, he is a little pricey compared to some of the other businesses I reviewed, but‘you get what you pay for’.
