Most fantastic experience of my life, I had roaches, I had spiders, I had baby snakes & I had biters. However, the friendly team at ICP came out & took care of my pests as if they knew how each individual pest thought, because they did.

Professional, knowledgeable, personable, thorough, reliable, reasonably priced. The owner himself did our initial inspection. No area, including our attic, went without inspection. Everything was explained upfront and anything found or taken care of during inspection was backed with proof. Personally owned and ran. Highly recommend!!
