Sunset ManorLocal Guide · 77 reviewsiTotal number of Google reviews Sunset has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
A year ago I had a hornet/wasp infestation from an outer hole near my bathroom. Upon closer inspection, I could literally see a wasp under the paint! I blindly called LC Pest Control and Rudy calmly walked me through some steps to prevent my bathroom to become their new "area", and he dispatched John to take care of the dust extermination. It went swimmingly and we couldn't have been happier with the level of service and care we experienced. Fast forward to yesterday when we had another infestation and I immediately called Rudy. He easily fit us in on the same day. Again, John showed up, explained his plan and was off to work. I wouldn't hesitate to call LC Pest Control for any issues around my house!

They came out and treated my house for wasps/hornets. We had them really bad last year and am hopeful their treatment will prevent a repeat. I will update as the review as the season progresses.

Lake Cook Pest Control is so responsive to a call requesting help to alleviate ants.
With in days they were here in BG.
With in just a couple of days the problem was taken care of.
Both inside the house and out.
Know you can trust them to do exactly what they say and charge a really fair price.
