The process went well. It took awhile for the technicians to set the trap, but on the second try the squirrel was captured and taken away. The squirrel was able to take some of the peanut butter bait at first, but the trap didn't close all the way and it managed to squeeze out and back into the fireplace. The technicians came back promptly and reset the trap. Within a couple of hours the squirrel took the bait again and was successfully captured. My husband was able to carry the cage to the yard to await a pickup. Again within a couple of hours they came back and took it away. We liked the service and would use them again as well as recommend them to others.
Description of Work: A squirrel somehow found its way into our fireplace and they were able to set a trap and catch it.

Description of Work: I called Post Exterminating because of a seasonal problem with ants. The technician was on time and explained what he was doing to correct the problem. He also gave me some suggestions about what I needed to do to eliminate the cause for the ants annual invasion. If the problem persists I have a free call back within 30 days. Overall I am pleased with the service.

They did a very good job. I don't want to put a bad commentary. It's just that they just stopped contacting with me, but every time they've came they have always done a good job. I didn't dislike anything. When they did decide to come they were prompt. If they said they'd be here at noon, they showed up on time. But, they just stopped showing up. Then I would call them personally they would show up. Then the guy would say he would show up a certain time each month and they haven't been back. But as far as the work, the work was good. It was just getting them over here that was the problem.
Description of Work: They had me on a program with monthly service of treatment. They got a couple of new workers there and the guy would never call me back. I called them a couple of times, but the gentlemen who has this rout never calls. So, I'm kind of left hanging. I had roaches from the apartment next door when they were doing construction. The roaches started coming through the walls. They came right away, sprayed and put down traps. After about three treatments I saw less and less roaches. Then they were coming every month after that and eliminated all of them. I did want to keep up the monthly treatment and put me on a plan but like I said they just kind of stop coming.

I called them. I was having a problem with my daughter's bedroom. The woman said that since I could not tell her what the problem was, she did not know how to treat it. I told her it was not for her response that I had called her. She was not nasty. She told me that if I found anything in the future, I could call them and they would check it out. It was not that they did not want to perform the service, but I guess it was just my interaction with the receptionist that did not go well. I will not call them again in the future.
Description of Work: I interacted with Post Exterminating Co. Inc., three months ago.

Do be polite. Do make an effort. When a client is willing to pay for identification of an insect, do send someone to look at the area (which in ths case was a bed--not a very big area).
Description of Work: The woman was very rude and refused to send someone down to look without our having a sample of the insect.

They did not do any actual work, but they honestly suggested something that I could do without pesticide services. I told them I have ant infestation and they said it probably would be a couple of hundred dollars, but they indicated that I actually had a water problem and that I need to address this before I could use any exterminating services as the problem would possibly reoccur. They did come when they said they would. After the analysis, the person recommended somethings that I should do before, which might actually fix the problem without having to engage with them for pesticide work. I thought that was a very positive thing. I would use their service in the future too.
Description of Work: I had an interaction with Post Exterminating Co Inc. for ant infestation. They visited us two months ago.

It went great..We started seeing roaches while construction was taking place in the home that we are attached to on one side. Roaches were even coming in from the outside through our sliding glass door and into the kitchen and also through the attached walls. I called on a Saturday and they showed up as arranged on time that Tuesday. They were very helpful in answering our questions and took there time going through every room in our three story home spraying and applying bate gel. They also sprayed the outside of our home at no extra cost. They returned two weeks later on the Thursday and went through the same routine as stated above. I would say 90% of the infeststation is gone and now we are on a maintenance program at an additional $40.00 a month until the roaches are finally all gone. We now find dead roaches and some that are very slow moving that are about to die. The monthly maintenance will continue until all roaches are dead and gone. We are very pleased and satisfied with the price and work by Post Exterminating Co.
Description of Work: Roaches and a lot of them throughout the whole house. They sprayed in every room and the outside of the home. They then continued to apply a roach gel bate in every room after the spray was applied, our home has three floors so it took sometime.

I had used this company several years ago when I had a termite problem and they did a good job. The men that came were very clean and very professional. We were happy they gave us the free coupon and will use them again if and when we have to.
Description of Work: I noticed that they had a coupon for a free inspection of the property, so I called them to come out and do an inspection. They did so and found no problem with any infestations. There was no charge for the service they provided that day.

They are one of the biggest pest control companies in Staten Island and they have been in business for over fifty years. When I have had problems in the past with termites, I have used smaller companies, but the termites keep coming back. I chose a larger company this time in hopes that they would have more experience and that they would know what to do to get rid of the termites. They recommended that I have my house sprayed, so I am going to use their services again. They will use a top of the line spray when they come back out, which I appreciate and the total cost for job will be $800. They will apply the $75 that I already paid for the inspection towards that fee.
Description of Work: I found some signs of termite damage in my house, so I had them come do an inspection. My house sits on a 40 by 100 foot lot. He did a cursory inspection and recommended that I have my housed sprayed with a treatment.
