Excellent, rapid response to initial call. Technician worked quickly and the initial services resolved the problem very quickly: no more mice = very happy customer who paid via credit card at time of service. ...until we started getting collection notices for fees related to a followup visit. The technician who took my credit card said that the price included a year's worth of followup visits. I called their office after each call, to be told that their accounts receivable person was unavailable and would return my call, which didn't happen until the fourth round of broken promises. Finally, I spoke to their accounts receivable clerk, who was aghast that I would think their technician would promise such a thing. She then asked me if I wanted to sign up for a year's maintenance contract. I paid the fee for the last visit and declined the offer to give them more money. Unbelievable.
Description of Work: Building inspection, penetration repair and blocking, numerous glue traps, exterior box traps to block and control field mice.

Noticed quite a few wasps flying around the roof line of my house so went to take a look. It looked like some wasps had chewed their way in between to pieces of overlapping horizontal siding and had set up shop. Gave Willard's a call and they had someone out that day (he was already working the in area). Scott showed up within the time stated and took care of the problem. He was polite and professional, telling me that if the wasps returned to give them a call and Willard's would send someone out for a free follow-up spraying. Fortunately, didn't need to do that. Totally would recommend this company.

They were very prompt and responsive. They were excellent in every respect. They were professional and knowledgeable. They offered to come back in a week if we saw any trace of the yellow jackets at no additional cost. I would highly recommend them.

Yellow-jacket infestation discovered during exterior painting. Tried do-it-yourself spray, but the location was difficult. Willard's came out, gave me reasonable price, did the work, offered to come back as often as necessary until the extermination was complete if the first application did not work. First application worked without need for follow-up. Technician (Tom Jones) thought the job was easier than expected and offered to give me a discount. I was so pleased with the experience that I declined the discount and paid full estimate.

In early August, we had a sudden infestation of moisture ants in our daughter's room in the basement. When I called many company's late in the week, no one could come out until the following Monday (not okay with my daughter). Willard's was the only one who could make it on a Saturday morning. Adam came Saturday morning and took care of the problem. He was very friendly, efficient, helpful and professional. He even cleaned out both of our vacuums that we had used to vacuum up the ants (but there were still many alive in the vacuum). He suggested regular spraying to help eliminate the ants in the future and also spiders. We agreed to have quarterly spraying, except in the winter. I would highly recommend this company for their quick response, friendly and professional behavior.

Excellent experience!! I am an infrequent & skeptical user of Angie's List but when I was working on my computer late at night/early morning and heard THE SOUND coming from the garage wall I new I needed an expert - obviously my attempt to be rid of a rodent I discovered two weeks earlier (and thought I scared off) had failed. So with Angie's List reviews in hand I called Willard's Pest Control as their reviews were great and they were local for me (Kirkland). I was greeted with a friendly uplifting voice (Kelly) who said she could have someone out to the house in a few hours. She provided me with an estimate for the Pest Inspection and with a typical price for the full service with follow up visits - all seem reasonable rates. We agreed to schedule the visit for late in the day. Scot from Willard's Pest Control arrived promptly, and with his eager and positive attitude I explained my story and the steps I had done to close up the entry points (too many to describe - but please get to filling those voids promptly!). I showed him where I believe the rat had tried to gain entry to the crawl space (or was that get out?). Scot went on to explain the reality of rodents, what they like, how and why they do the things they do, and the steps necessary to keep them out. Scot examined the exterior, interior, and crawl space and felt the entry points were sealed okay (but could be improved). Scot made some suggestions and described the service they would perform. I elected to try and trap the rodent(s)? myself since I had already sealed up the entry points over the past week or so. But if I feel the rodent(s) are winning - I will call Scot to take over. I paid the Pest Inspection Service fee and gained a level of confidence that I was on the right track to winning the rodent war. I will definitely work with Willard's Pest Control again and recommend them to everyone.
Description of Work: Rodent Pest Inspection Service: Examined exterior of house for possible entry into garage and crawl space. Examined interior of garage for evidence of rodents, possible voids in walls, and possible entry into crawl space. Examined crawl space for evidence of rodents and possible entry points.

Tom showed up on time and was very professional. He told me that there weren't any pest problems in the crawl space which was great news. He then gave me an estimate on what it would take to clean out the crawl space of all the debris. He also gave me an additional cost of what it would take to add the insulation. Although I found Tom very professional the price I received was 4 ($4860) times as much as another company for the cleanup and 3 times ($2835) for the insulation. I think that this company specializes in pest control and this is a side bit or something they aren't really interested in being competitive in. Also, Tom told me that the insulation that had been put up with plastic previously would be left. When I went back afterwards and looked at the inspector report they stated that plastic tacked to the floor joists would trap moisture and cause mold problems and should be removed. This was also stated by the other company I got a bid from (without prompting). I would hope that Tom would have noticed this as well.
Description of Work: Tom Jones came out and gave me an estimate on cleaning out my crawl space and adding insulation where there was none. He also checked for any pest problems in the crawl space. When I had purchased the house the inspector said that the crawl space needed cleaned out and insulation put in.

I felt that overall we were ripped off by this company and am very unhappy. We purchased the house and knew that there were some possible pest problems. We were originally told that it would cost about $7K to fix all of our problems (when they thought the seller was paying). On a cost per hour basis the service was very expensive-there was probably 2 hours spent spraying for the carpenter ants, 2 hours to shoot in insulation and two 15 minute follow-ups to tell that there was no rodent problem. I understood that ALL the ant problems would be taken care of by the company, but then we found out that they weren't even going to treat one of our major problems which was moisture ants. We were told just to set traps ourselves because it is too toxic for them to treat the ants in the house. I really understood that the bid was to cover ALL ant problems and we still have moisture ants all over the place after 7 months. I will now have to go to another company to take care of this problem.
Description of Work: The company sprayed for carpenter ants and set traps for rodents. They also cleaned and put in extra insulation for some pest damage in our attic. We also had a severe moisture ant problem that I thought was going to be taken care of but later learned that the company didn't want to treat for that problem and it wasn't part of the service.

As far as the pest control is concerned, they have done a good job. The cost of the service includes 3 visits total, and they have been very proactive in getting them scheduled. They were however exceedingly high in their estimate for the cleanup of the crawl space. A company that specializes in this type of work quoted us $1900 for the job. Willard quoted $4700. I am giving them a C for Professionalism for that reason. Their price for the cleanup was ridiculous. If they didn't want the business, they should have just said so.
Description of Work: They did a quick analysis of our pest problem, laid out traps and provided an estimate to repair the damage from the pests. They have since come back out 2 more times to collect the traps and reset them. Their office has scheduled all the visits.
