Description of Work: They removed many bats from the attic, cleaned and enzymed the areas. Checked all 4 attic areas, and cleaned a 2nd area that had old evidence of bat excrement. All attic areas and vents were replaced and re sealed. In addition, they sealed the entire house and put in new crawl space grates that are wildlife proof, as we had also had a snake in the house a few days before we discovered the bats. Their team is very knowledgable and professional- all uniformed. The owners were on site the first 2 visits, but the technicians that came on the 3rd day were also excellent and respectful of property. This also includes a 5 year guarantee that covers every type of wildlife including mice. We live next to a wooded area, so this is an added plus as we have a lower 3rd level living area. The snake we killed turned out not to be poisonous, but others in our area have killed copperheads, so this gives me piece of mind. They even foamed and sealed all tiny openings where wires or any type of pipe enters the home. Highly recommend. Could probably have had just the bats removed for less money, but to us this full service guarantee was worth the cost. Total work time at the house was probably 10-11 hours, 2 men working each time, so approximately 20-22 man hours of work.

Great service and they actually got rid of the squirrels, which two other companies failed to do after numerous attempts.

Description of Work: Nate and Kevin responded to my call for help with critters in the attic, which turned out to be primarily rats. They set out traps and secured various possible entry points. Their work was very high quality, and they were a pleasure to work with. I appreciated their knowledge, dedication, hard work, and friendliness.

Unfortunately he was unable to find where squirrels or rats were getting in our attic. He offered valuable advice and a possible solution. The problem turned out to be the ring at the top of our chimney which we have since repaired. I would definitely call him again. He is excellent and a wealth of information.
Description of Work: inspected our house for a place where critters were getting into the attic.

See above. It didn't go at all. I purchased this thro Angie's List and I am extremely disappointed. I thought buying thro the site would be some assurance that they were reputable. Now I have to fill out some request to try and get my money back. Be warned..
Description of Work: Nothing! Stood me up TWICE! Were supposed to be here 10/23. Two hours after their appointment time they call to tell me they are not coming and they cannot get here until 10/29. I had a snake in my house so I asked for special consideration and they basically told me "no way". Said both their trucks were broken down. I was very disappointed and angry but I had paid thro Angie's List for a special offer so I let it go. Now I am sitting here on 10/29, they haven't shown up and I haven't heard from them.

Response from Palmetto Wildlife Extractors
[member name removed] We apologiz for the lack of punctuality within our company with this call. We strive to be the Fastest and Most Aggressive Wildlife Removal Company around. We did try to make it right and offer a discounted service. However by that time it seemed as if nothing would help fix this scheduling mishap within our company that day. Once again we apologize again and if there is anything we can do in the future to make it up please let us know! Sincerely, Palmetto Wildlife Extractors

They were suppose to take the shutters off and wash them, but they could not get the shutters off. Once off, they were going to put a material in the back of them so that bats would not be able to enter under our shutters any longer. Instead, they had to fill them with foam.
Description of Work: Closed off the shutters so that bats could not get into them.

I called Justin Ludy, the owner of Palmetto Wildlife Extractors, based on a recommendation from the pest company I have used for many years. We made an appointment. During the time they were to be at our house they had an emergency call that required more time and manpower and they were not able to keep our original appointment date. Justin told his Michael, one of his employees, to make another appointment and correct our problem without charging. The work was completed very well. I later called Justin to send him a fee but he refused and made the work a gift since he said they had disrupted my day when the original appointment was not kept. I certainly appreciated his professinalism and concern for his customers.
Description of Work: Michael inspected an entry hole in the molding under the roof line created by wood peckers and filled the hole with hard material that should eliminate further damage.

He made multiple trips to check and remove traps. Even after I paid him, he returned (without my asking) to finish fixing the roof shingle the squirrels had damaged. Justin is a great guy. Very dependable and trustworthy. Smart, too.
Description of Work: He worked with me throughout the fall & spring to remove & exclude squirrels from the attic, apply bio-product to affected areas. Justin trapped and removed squirrels to another area, replaced damaged roofing (where they had been sharpening their teeth) and repaired where they were coming in.
