Stop Bugging Me Pest Control is a locally owned company offering guaranteed pest control solutions for residential and commercial customers in the Puget Sound.
Stop Bugging Me Pest Control came out twice to spray the nest, and did not charge us for the second visit. They were very professional and guarantee their work. The wasps are finally gone and I would use them again and recommend their services.
Description of Work: We have a wasp nest under the house and wasps were stinging us and the crew of two working on our yard. The wasps were actually swarming and making it very risky to use the gate separating the front and back yards. We tried to treat the nest ourselves, with no success, and needed professional assistance.

The tech was very nice and on time. Because there were no flies at the time he could not determine the type fly or where they may be coming from. He was very knowledgeable but was not able to provide the service I had paid for (to determine where the flies were coming from). He told me if I was able to catch a fly and put it in a baggie someone could come out and collect it and then determine what type of fly it was. A week later I had two dead flies to give to them. When I called, the receptionist she said there would be a service cost to have someone come out. Really? Why didn't the tech tell me this when he was at my house? And why do I have to pay again when nothing was done at the original appointment? The receptionist said I could take a picture and send it, that was free. But, of course they could not determine from the picture what type of fly it was. I feel this company is only interested in charging you for services whether needed or not. I didn't feel they provided any service to me for the fee I paid. I have no problem paying for good service and Angie's list has not let me down until now. I would not recommend this company. I am sure there are better pest control companies on Angie's List that can do a better job.
Description of Work: We moved into a house that had an abundance of flies coming in and we didn't know why or where they were coming from. I called to have someone come out and see if they could tell me where the flies were coming from and then to determine what to do next (schedule a service appt if needed). When scheduling the appointment the receptionist quoted me a general fee to coming out and then another fee to do the service. I only wanted a general visit to determine the problem. At the end of the call she quoted me a higher amount than the general fee. When asked, she said that was the general fee and the service fee. Yet, I had said I only wanted the general appointment. Thankfully I didn't give her my credit card (paid with a check). I might have been charged for both services.

Response from Stop Bugging Me Pest Control
[Member Name Removed], I left you a message by phone . . . First let me apologize for the experience and clarify. We charge exclusively by durations of time and an inspection/consultation has a general amount of time and value. It is a one time fee and generally a tech can give a plan to move forward. We do it this way so there is no hard selling or pressure by our techs. In your case it cost the company money to send a tech and give you his knowledge, unfortunately there was nothing to identify so he likely gave you some general recommendations, but still there was costs associated both for us and therefore you. A second inspection/consultation/identification is likely not needed. You have a fly issue and if the tech can identify it we can move straight to solving the problem. Sounds like this is where the disconnect occurred. I will work with you to provide a solution but please understand we do not "Charge for services needed or not." or "I might have been charged for both . . ." We charge for time or an assigned time based on the type of call and we ask for credit card as a matter of process and do not charge for services we do not perform. Tom

Pretty well. We got a six-month service from them. The did not do a super job at extrusion but it may have been something to do with our older home and the job being impossible with a determined rodent. The technicians were competent and polite. I feel like it was a good value for what we paid.

the tech was very professional, knew his stuff, sprayed around my exterior to keep crawlies out, advised me on how to handle pest control vis a vis my pets, and told me that the "wasps" I'd seen were actually a different variety, who were non harmful.

The tech was pleasant and stayed about an hour putting out a couple of bait traps, spraying around the outside and "dusting" for spiders. Set time for next visit. Tech was a no show for the second visit which I had altered my work schedule to accommodate. When I called “Stop Bugging Me”, the phone rep unapologetically and very brusquely told me that I was the problem, because I could only set appointments with her. When I asked why the Tech asked me to set the follow up time directly with him, she just said she "didn't know”. Set a new time for 2nd visit with the phone Rep. Tech showed up late, did nothing in the house, and left after 15 minutes with no report on situation or what he did. Will not use again. Waste of money. The company sent me a reminder of the Tech visit that arrived nearly two hours after the Tech already left.
Description of Work: Bought two visit deal on Angie's List. Our concern was carpenter ants and spiders. Set time for first visit with phone Rep and we left it that I would set up the time for the follow up when the Tech visited.

Response from Stop Bugging Me Pest Control
Mr [Member Name Removed], I apologize for missing the follow up on 10/4. I would like to offer an additional follow up if you can reach out to me at the office. 206-749-2847. In reading the notes the technician did ask for a follow up on 10/4 but he did not follow protocol and call it in. The accounting department did not see the note and therefore it was missed. As far as treatment goes the tech did treat for ants covering both OHA and Carpenter ants and I have no doubt the treatment will work. He did not find any Carpenter ants but still used a barrier treatment for them. I can explain further if you would like. Again I apologize for the incident. Tom

The technician (Ron) showed up on time, and pointed out that we had the beginnings of a wasp nest right outside our front door! He took care of that one along with the main colony for the same price. The yellowjackets were still coming and going about 5 days later, so I called back and told them the problem. They were more than happy to come back out and give them another blast. However, activity ceased prior to the return trip, so I cancelled with no hassle. Nice folks to deal with, both on the phone and in person. I hope I don't have reason to call them again soon, but will not hesitate to do so if the need arises.
Description of Work: I heard a 'purring' sound coming from inside our wall. I went around outside and discovered yellowjackets coming and going from a small hole in the fireplace masonry. I called Stop Bugging Me and described what I saw and heard. The guy on the phone stated with them making a sound like that, it was a big colony. I made an appointment for them to come out as soon as possible.

Tim came out and looked everywhere, finding a tiny whole on my roof where rats had been able to chew in between a seam on the roof flashing. He set traps in my attic and gave me some glue traps to put inside my house where I suspected activity. He came back the next week and found dead rats in 6 of the 8 traps he set. He recommended that I purchase one of Stop Bugging Me's bi-montly services in order to insure no rats would return. I enjoyed meeting Tim. He's a nice guy and enjoys making people feel better in their homes. I did purchase the plan. Kyle is my new technician. He was friendly and very helpful on his first visit, setting up a treatment plan to not only protect against the return of rats and mice, but also to take care of a myriad of flying and crawling visitors to my home.
Description of Work: I called Stop Bugging Me because I could hear chewing in my attic and "something" was trying to chew through the plastic tub in which I keep birdseed for two bird feeders.
