Remove raccoons from attic
Description of Work: Terrible and expensive. To remove raccoons from inside an attic they placed a trap on the roof. ??? After never catching anything they charged additional fees to close the opening the animal had made and claimed the job was done. Raccoons are still in the attic and I’m now doing the job myself. When I called their office to report what happened the person said that’s the “nature of wildlife” and tried to charge me again. I told her, several times, that I would not pay them anymore money, but they showed up and set traps again without my consent. I had to call again and tell them I was not paying anything more to them. Nearly $500 for nothing. Avoid!

Response from Critter Control of Columbus
Hi [Member Name Removed], All fees were discussed and approved in writing prior to services rendered or repairs completed. You paid our company a service call fee for consult, inspection and for trapping. Aside from that, you approved our company to complete a repair from where the animal had damaged the home. The repair site is warrantied, but if wildlife returns and damages your home in another area, we do charge for those repairs as well. Wildlife is unpredictable and we do our best to verify activity has ceased from the home before doing any repairs. There are times that raccoons will depart the premises and return at a later date - hence, the "nature of wildlife." We are not responsible for repairs needed at your home and do charge to make repairs caused by wildlife. We will gladly return to conduct a grace period trapping without assessing the service fee again. However, as per our contract, there are removal fees per animal and repairs are the responsibility of the customer to complete or to pay our company if you elect to do so. The important aspect to remember is we have no hidden fees. All of the information mentioned above is outlined in your service agreement.

I CALLED THE COMPANY AT 9:45 AM AND TALKED WITH EMILY. SHE EXPLAINED THEIR SERVICES AN COSTS. UPON AGREEING TO THE SERVICE, SHE WAS ABLE TO CONTACT AN EMPLOYEE WHO WAS AT MY HOME WITHIN AN HOUR. PRETTY IMPRESSIVE RESPONSIVENESS. BOB WAS THE GENTLEMAN WHO ARRIVED. VERY PROFESSIONAL AND CAREFUL ABOUT THE REMOVAL. HE RETURNED MY TRAP (MINUS THE SKUNK) AS I HAD REQUESTED THE VERY NEXT MORNING. GLAD THEY WERE IN YOUR LISTING. A BIG HELP.
