Logan was very pleasant and easy to talk to. He understood my concerns. He did our initial inspection. I guess I thought there would be more to it than there was for the cost. I was under the impression that taking care of any mice was included with the service and was very disappointed that there would be an additional fee for this.
Brett was very professional and came the same day I called
