Dino initially tried to kill the yellow jackets infestation from outside my house. That didn't work. He returned, free of charge, a week later and tried reaching the nest with poison from inside the house, in an effort to avoid removing wood siding from my my house. This didn't work.

An experience many people will regret having these ortho home defense it’s 20 bucks at Walmart. Those other people are right it works way better and it doesn’t come with the incompetency of someone who can’t clear all hornet nest.

In today's day and age, it is very difficult to find a company that is professional and can show up on time. This is the best pest control company out there! We have used Extreme Pest Control several times over many years (for hornets as well as our latest case of sugar ants) and they have gone above and beyond each time they have provided service.

Dino initially tried to kill the yellow jackets infestation from outside my house. That didn't work. He returned, free of charge, a week later and tried reaching the nest with poison from inside the house, in an effort to avoid removing wood siding from my my house. This didn't work. Dino, the owner of this company, had 3 major family emergencies in one week (involving inpatient hospitalizations). He still returned my message and assured me he would be back to take care of the yellow jackets and he did return. He found away to remove some unpainted drywall in my water heater area to access the huge nest (big enough that he took pictures of it). He was able to remove the nest and add more poison to kill any remaining yellow jackets. He also showed me how they were getting into the house so I could get repairs done. He was great to work with and I recommend his company.

Yellow jacket extermination was needed. After terminix ripped me off for $250, this owner operated company showed up at my door with his bee suit and removed the yellow jackets outside my home within the walls of my porch. The prices were significantly cheaper than any other company and he walked me through what he was doing, what my next steps were, and guaranteed the yellow jackets to be gone in two to three days. He completed the job and they were gone within three days. My future pest concerns will only be through this company. No call center, no upselling packages you don’t need, and 100% satisfied with the work done

I had a football+ size, Bald Faced Hornet nest by the garage door. He showed up at the time promised and killed all the bees (hundreds I’d say), and knocked the nest down. Very happy with his work and would recommend.

Had a wicked yellowjacket's nest that refused to go away no matter how many times we sprayed it. They just finished the job this morning, but with how quick their response time is and how thorough they are, I have no doubt I'll be going with them for all future pest issues. Keep up the good work, guys!
