A female rat moved into the chipmunk holes by our back door, killed the chipmunks, and had two litters of babies in rapid succession. Speed Exterminating located all the holes, baited, and returned in one week to collect the five dead rats. A second round of bait was applied to any holes that could still have been active in the recent past just in case there is a survivor. Leaves were placed in the holes so I can see if there is any activity. I have a 90-day warranty from the initial date of service if any rats appear. Everything was explained very clearly to me and I learned quite a bit about rats and their behavior. I am very impressed with Speed Exterminating's professionalism, thoroughness, experience and prompt response! They came out just as soon as I was able to be home to meet them and did the initial work immediately. I am recommending them to all my neighbors.
Description of Work: Rat holes were identified and baited during the initial visit. At the follow-up visit one week later, 5 dead rats were removed from my property, and any holes that had recently been active were re-baited just in case there were any remaining rats.

They were very accommodating. He let me know that we did not need to spray inside and that spraying outside usually takes care of it. I feel like they have been very honest with us.

There wasn't anything not to like about this company. I felt confident that they did the work I wanted them to do. I've hired them before and will hire them again.
Description of Work: I was having trouble with mice. They came in and did a thorough job in baiting and then following up a week later. They gave me suggestions on how to proceed in order to curtail having mice in the future.

Great! Glad that they found the source of the issue. Their solution should eliminate the problem long term. No sounds lately. Nice job!
Description of Work: We heard scritch scratching in our attic and determined that we likely had unwelcomed guests, which turned out to be mice. Speed came out and did a thorough explanation of what they would do and how to eliminate the visitors. They went and did a perimeter view around the home and detected a location that needed repair in which they were likely getting in. They were quick and covered all bases. There was a follow up check the next week to see if there were any results from their work. There was a mix up in the rescheduling, but they remedied that quickly.

My first experience with them was not good, but it was the way they remedied the problem that kept me going to them. The guy they sent the first time was very unprofessional, and had no idea what he was doing. After I called them they sent Bill, who has been coming since, and he is great! He knows what he is doing, and is very timely when he comes. The work he does is great, and he is very personable and professional. He also makes sure there aren't any issues that we don't know about. He is very thorough, and if I don't call for a specific time, they call and give us a time, and unless I'm not okay with it, they come within just a couple of days.
Description of Work: They come four times every summer.

I called Speed Exterm. to get an estimate on spraying for ants. The rep was super nice and recommended that I could come in and purchase the ant killer for a tenth of the cost of hiring them to do it. I walked into the store at 1pm, when they close, and she cheerily waited on me anyway. She told me how to use the product and where to spray it. It was very easy and relatively safe, since it is a water-based poison.
Description of Work: Extermination of small brown ants in the house, specifically the kitchen and living room.

Bill was courteous and worked quickly. He came back the next week to see if his treatment was successful. There was no extra charge for the second visit. We have not heard the rodent since. We're assuming that his treatment worked.
Description of Work: I called for an appointment and Bill, the representative, was out the next day. He listened to our concerns. We had heard noise from a rodent in the rafters of the basement ceiling. We had only seen its tail but were confident that the clever animal stayed in the ceiling, away from our cat. Bill told us the cost of his service and placed poison and a trap in appropriate locations. He gave us advice and told us what to expect. If the rodent ate the poison we might not see it again at all.

When I called the company a very friendly and helpful person answered the phone. When I told them I was a member of Angie's list I was promptly given a $10 discount. I was told exactly what the cost of the spraying would be. My appointment was made within a few days of my calling. The technician that came to my house was friendly and knew what he was doing. He gave me some exterminating suggestions for next spring that I am going to have the company do. Overall it was a great experience.

Jim came out and inspected a wood pile, he determined that there were no termites that it was a different pest that was in the firewood. He also walked around the perimeter of the house to see if he noticed any other signs of infestation. He seemed very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions. There was no charge for the service call. I will definitely use them again.

I always use this company. They treat the problem and don't try to sell you a monthly service. Dave has made several visits to my home over the years and is always friendly, low-key, and efficient. This time, the company's records showed they were last here in 2003--so four years is a good long time between treatments! Can highly recommend.
