We have had Erhlich Pest Control for 10 years. Late winter, we had a rescue cat in our house. We were getting bite on our backs every night. We thought perhaps it was a bedbug, not fleas because the bites were solely on our trunks. We set up bedbug traps, even flea traps. Nothing in the traps our in our beds. We were embarrassed, but we called Ehrlich because they handle bedbugs and fleas, as well. Instead of Ed, who usually comes to our house, we got Mark. Mark said he would not come to our house, inferred we were imagining the bugs and stated he would ONLY talk to us again when we went to a dermatologist. I was outraged. Eventually, after vacuuming and washing everything possible, we got rid of the bugs biting my family. Every Spring, we get our termite traps filled. I noticed Ed did not call and the traps were not filled. I called. The receptionist said our traps ate filled every April and our last appointment was last September ( the traps are filled in April and September); its what we pay for with Erhlich. She said someone would be out in several days. She said if I would like Ed to come out. I said yes. She said he would be out in several days. Today I came home to find a message from Mark; he said he won't be coming out because we aren't due for any service until September of this year. I found Ed's number and asked him if he could come out. I also explained problems I had with Mark. Ed said he would be out in several days. I will have to drop my service with Erhlich after ten years if we are going to have to deal with Mark.

Jim analyzed the issue, and baited the ants both inside and outside. I'm sure, based on our experience, that the problem will be taken care of. I would highly recommend Ehrlich for pest control.
Description of Work: We have had an annual maintenance contract with Ehrlich for many years. This visit we had a new issue, ants in the kitchen. We had our regular technician, Jim. He is very knowledgable, and has been able to help us with every pest that has decided to use our house as their home.

From my first call to Ehrlich (on a Tues) to Blake coming out to have a look (Weds) to Dave coming to do the work (Friday), I was extremely pleased. 2 months ago, the contractor who was fixing my front porch (removing alot of wet/damaged wood in process) had found a carpenter ant nest inside one of the porch columns, so he had bombed and sprayed everything thoroughly and taken all wet/damaged wood off the premises. About 6 weeks later, we started to see a stray ant in the house here and there (mostly in the 2nd floor bedroom close to where the porch wood had been replaced on the outside), so I put down glue strips and ant bait. I was alarmed at how many ants I was catching on the glue strips (the over-the-counter ant bait was not effective!) so called Ehrlich. When Blake came to tell me my options, he totally got it that I needed help asap as I had a house guest coming soon who would be sleeping in that very bedroom. Tho I think their normal schedule might only have allowed them to get the technician to get to me in 7-10 days, when I explained how desperate I was, Blake assured me that he would have someone within 3 days, and indeed they were able to schedule Dave to come in 2 days. And I think they might even have gotten Dave to come in on his day off. Dave was great--a 30+ year employee of the company. He was reassuring, thorough, quick thinking, very knowledgeable. He explored in the bedroom a bit (moved a tall bookcase in the corner, and some notebooks on bottom shelf of the bookcase)--voila behind the notebooks and bookcase, there were hundreds of ants swarming with larvae, with the beginnings of a new nest. Ugh. Rather than spray the ants and have them spread out across the room, Dave asked to use my vacuum cleaner (quick thinking!--fine with me!). He vacuumed up all of the ants with the vacuum hose, disturbing them as little as possible, took the vacuum outside to the yard, then returned to thoroughly treat the room, the rest of the house, and the porch nooks and crannies. Then he zapped all of the ants in my vacuum dirt catcher/cup using plain dish detergent water. And since I have been fighting a battle for 4 years against mice (I have been making some strides but not 100% success-- though now no more signs of droppings in my kitchen, over the last several months they were continuing to come eat the poison bait I'd set under my stove), Dave also set out bait w/higher levels of poison throughout my basement. He also pointed out to me one location on outside of house where mice might be getting in so I will stuff it with steel wool. If I'd only had the 1 visit/treatment from Ehrlich, I think price would've been ~$275. But since I signed up also for a whole year's coverage (3 additional scheduled visits plus any visits in-between as needed, no extra charge), the charge for the initial treatment was lowered to $240 (which included tax). And since I paid in full up front, they took 5% off the whole-year coverage). The additional year coverage (for my smaller size house) before 5% off was $492 + tax. (I also appreciated that Blake volunteered about the 5% discount for paying up front ...I wouldn't have known about this otherwise...indicates a company w/integrity who does good business the old-fashioned way.) If it is possible to be over-the-moon thrilled with one's pest control company, that is me. Thank you Ehrlich for helping me in such a huge way in such a timely manner.
Description of Work: Deal with sudden, alarming appearance of lots of carpenter ants in 2nd floor guest bedroom (with house guest coming in 10 days). Also deal with evidence of mice (an ongoing issue over years).

It was easy to sched an appointment. Paul is professional, easy to communicate with, and, best of all, honest. He took the time to educate me regarding signs of termite infestation. He told me I have dry wood rot instead. He told me there was no signs of prior treatment for termite, and was very thorough. I would call Ehrlich for any pest concern in the future.
Description of Work: I thought I had termite problem. Paul promptly gave me a free estimate.

Their service representative is very friendly and addresses any questions we have and responds quickly to our needs. Something unexpected, they respond very quickly. The price hasn't changed.

Response from Ehrlich Pest Control
Thank you so much for your kind words for Jim Petrakos, your service technician, and for Ehrlich Pest Control. I am retiring as district manager of the Pittsburgh office tomorrow (8/29/14) and your post was a wonderful gift. I know there are many great customer reviews that preceded yours but the timeliness of your post as I look back on my career really tugged at my emotions. I am very proud of all my employees and know they will continue to provide you with exemplary service you many years to come. I am also confident that my replacement will be great leader and will assure that the tradition of service excellence that our customers expect will continue long after my memory has faded. Dennis Kopelic, a lifetime native of the area and longtime Ehrlich employee will be the new Pittsburgh District Manager. Thank you Angie's List members for the positive feedback over the years. Also for the times when we fell short of expectations, thank you for helping to make us better. We are always listening. Please continue to provide feedback. Warm regards, Tom Moeller Pittsburgh District Manager

I called for a quote, they advertise free consultation. I assumed based on past experience with exterminators, someone would come out and look at my house, talk to me about my situation, and give me a price based on a square footage of house. I spoke with Brian Hauck. He pushed a genericpackage from the company that was either - a one time $275 initial setup or a Year Round Protection Plan of $225 for initial setup and then $43 per month. Needless to say, I went with another company that came and spoke to my husband, offered both a one time treatment for $200 with a 90 day guarantee or we could pay $300 for a year long guarantee. He even spoke about the ability of after the one-time treatment of buying a sprayer and chemicals from Home Depot to do follow up sprays ourselves. Something I did not expect from an exterminator, advice on how to handle the situation ourselves. It really was a huge contrast from Brian's pushy sales speach.

I'm very sorry to hear about your experience. If you gave Brian any indication that you wanted an on-site inspection and consultation, he should've have scheduled that at your earliest convenience. We only offer phone quotes as a convenience to you (one less appointment to schedule), but only for common pest problems that are easily diagnosed over the phone. Since carpenter ants are the only large black ant in this area that you will see inside your living areas, they fit into that category. Also, with on line resources that show us the size and surroundings of your house, we can with confidence give you a firm estimate over the phone. The licensed technician who provides the service will then do everything necessary to assure that the problem has been corrected. If we can ever be of assistance in the future, please keep us in mind. Feel free to call me directly. I would be happy to assure that one of our state licensed inspectors is scheduled for an appointment at your convenience. Tom Moeller, Pittsburgh District Manager 800-488-9495 ext 11701 or 412-771-8888.

I was very impressed with the manager's expertise, thoroughness with inspection, candor, and ability to explain how to identify termite damage and differentiate them from other insect, such as wood-boring beetles. The inspection was very informative and took about 30 minutes, and I did not feel like he was trying to deceive me or sell me services (and termite treatment is very pricey, especially for a large property). He also had a degree in entomology, which gave me additional confidence that he was an expert in the field and that I could trust his opinion. Should I see signs of termites in the future (which I now know how to identify!), I will definitely consider calling Ehrlich for the service.
Description of Work: I received a brief termite inspection and a subsequent quote on the work (which would include drilling holes in the foundation of my house and as well as in the stone walls inside my basement).

Overall the Customer Service at Ehrlich was OUTSTANDING. As a previous Customer Service Manager and Client Service Supervisor, this is the type Customer Service that creates repeat customers. I was kept informed of the process every step of the way, whether by phone or electronically. Sometimes my elderly mother would be at my home and Ken would call and tell me everything he had done and what he was going to do. At no point did I ever feel a change in the quality of service because I was not there. It was exemplary at all times! At one point, they even called in Wayne, the regional Bird Man to address my specific issues. As I stated, my pests were not your average run of the mill pests and had "no intentions" of departing without a major fight. But Ehrlich went above and beyond the call of duty. They were diligent, patient and determined. Throughout this process I spoke to Mark Callan, Operations Manager, Carol Ann Snider, Customer Service Representative and of course Ken, my technician. I could not have been happier! Ehrlich adjusted their schedule to accommodate me and went above and beyond. I use to tell my employees, treat everyone like a "Million Dollar Customer" because one day they can become just that. I want you to know that I felt like that "Million Dollar Customer"! I would highly recommend them!
Description of Work: I recently purchased a house that had been vacant for several months and after settling in I started to hear activity and movement in my ceiling. The way my house is built I have two roofs. The majority of the activity was in the ceiling above my living room whose only entry was through a gable vent on the outside of the house. It did not have a crawl space and the area was approximately 22 x 13 sq. ft. Ehrlich sent a person to identify the type of pests I had (birds and deer mice) and assigned Ken Buresch as my technician. Ken was very knowledgeable, professional and conscientious. He identified two potential points of entry; the missing screen on the gable vent and a small gap under my garage door. I addressed his recommendations immediately. He baited the attics accessible through the gable vent and the other through the hallway attic. He put screening over gable vent to prevent birds from entering the house externally. I was so impressed I purchased the year round maintenance plan. Let me say, they are called PESTS for a reason and were none too happy at this interruption of free housing, especially in the middle of winter. That being said, it required a couple of visits as the squatters were not interested in living outside in the dead of winter. However, Ken was a formidable opponent and used various methods to prevent their attempts at re-entry and expulsion of those still trapped inside. It was not an easy task. At one point he put a net covering over the vent that would allow them to exit my roof while interfering with their ability to re-enter at night. How ingenious!

I would highly recommend them to others. Their pricing seems reasonable to me. I can have them come out more than three times by giving them a call. They are very convenient and also have Saturday hours. They are good with working around my work schedule. The guys who have come out to do the pest treatment have been very nice. The same people come out all the time and they even know my dogs hence they are good with working on the outside even with the dogs around. They provide really good, professional and friendly service. They call to let me know that someone would be coming out on a specific scheduled day which is usually between 11 am and 1 pm and if it is not good I can reschedule with them.
Description of Work: I use Ehrlich for a year round pest protection. They come out three times a year to treat pests.
