Bobby was great! He accessed the situation inside and out, nest being inside the walls, and then treated the area. When he was finished, he told us what to expect as far as the product eliminates the queen and larva and how many days it would take before I could safely get back to my remodeling. Thanks Bobby!
Chris arrived to treat a wasp issue we were having. He was a great technician! He was punctual, friendly, explained everything he was doing and why, and was very respectful of our property. Thank you!
