Pestway for bat extermination

Pestways is punctual and explains and answers all our questions.
When I called about an animal problem in my home they sent a tech out the next day who identified the issue as bats. The tech was thorough, pointing out several areas where the bats were nesting and leaving droppings etc. He gave us an estimate of 5000$ for exclusion gear and post exclusion cleaning services. I had…
Updating this review. Charged us $3000 for bat removal. Bats came right back so they sealed a bunch of spots they missed the first time. Bats are back again and they want $90 to come inspect it again. Check their Yelp ratings first too. New company just came and showed me a ton of areas Pestway missed sealing off including the bat door they removed!
PestwayTeam who did the "sealing" of my home were friendly, well trained and answered all my questions
Every time someone has come out they are awesome! Super polite and knowledgeable! Highly recommend (:
Proper follow through and friendly service.
Employees were polite and helpful
My positive rating reflects the quality of service that I received from employee Ray. The initial inspection process and work were horrible.
Each team that came to my house were very good. They explained everything they were going to do. Very professional people. Glad I had them come and take care of my bat problem.
Buyer beware!!!! Pestway Review - Lack of Customer Value and Integrity I recently had an extremely disappointing experience with Pestway, and I feel compelled to share my feedback and warn others about their business practices. It became apparent to me that this company does not value its customers or act with…
Pestway got the job done quickly and thoroughly.
The man who came to do our home inspection and service quote had previously been a service tech so he was highly knowledgeable about their service, products & how they are able to fully exterminate with a warranty for any return.
We have been having issues with a bat near our home and the technician checked all possible areas including the attic to confirm that they were not coming in the house and we needed to treat the issue on the exterior. He was very thorough and communicated well through the process.
Donnie was amazing. Very professional, friendly and explained many things we didn’t know about bats. $$$$ but must be taken care of.
Service provided blocked all entrances for bats and since no more noises. They put the effort in making sure all concerns were met.
Justice got the bat! He was patient & gentle with me; I was terrified. Justice gave good information about bat habits and completed an inspection of my attic…all in the dead of night (from 9pm-11pm to be exact). As a matter of fact, we called another service that night and was told that someone would reach out to us…
The 2 employees that came to my home for the original work, they did their inspection and explained very well about my situation with bats. They went into depth about what they were doing and the time of year were in so bats were legally protected animals. After that they scheduled the work to get done. They came…
Fantastic Service.
Great responsiveness to our issues with bats getting into our attic. Knowledgeable, friendly and trustworthy. They don’t just trap animals and keep coming back, they provide the solution. Not like others that kept coming back.
They call you n tell you how far away they are and are very professional to you
Very helpful company. Called hearing noises in the attic and they found bats. They came, found bats and have sealed stuff off. Waiting for a call to setup the cleanup and tube removal soon. The techs got right to work as soon as they got here.
A representative came out same day, offered a reasonable solution with good explanation, work completed efficiently.
Pestway was easy to work with, from the estimate to the final cleaning. They did a bat removal (not extermination). Everyone was professional, friendly, and efficient. Definitely recommend.
Our bat situation is now repaired. Pestway not only installed the new ridge guard but also gave us advice on where and how to button up the house to prevent other possible points of entry. The installer was neat and professional. The bat door removal went smoothly and on time he answered all questions…
** EDIT 5-30-23: We were supposed to receive a $ credit back from their billing dept (we were told it was processed on Friday 5/19/23) bc they were only able to perform services on 2 of 3 areas we scheduled however as of 5/30/23 we have yet to receive the credit. I will be calling today see what the hold up is on…
Excellent work to take care of bats, squirrels and even a bird nest. Would highly recommend!
This was the second time we called on Pestway (formerly Platinum Wildlife Removal) in recent years due to critter sounds in our attic. Relative to other companies we've had come out to our home, Pestway is thorough. They take photos, walk the roof, and move around our entire crawlspace. They are knowledgable,…
Very punctual, respectful & informative. Bat trap was installed & the technician made repairs to our awning to prevent re-entry. Highly recommended their services.
They didn't exterminate the bats, to be clear. They did bat exclusion treatment. But it's the only option that's close.
Everyone was professional, knowledgeable, and honest. We received frequent updates on arrival times and the work the progress of the work being done.
Great experience!
Great experience. Very informative and willing to spend time providing the process and answering questions.
The technician was very friendly and explained what he would be doing on the project.
This company is amazing. The staff are super friendly and make sure you understand everything as they go over it. I would recommend this company any one with any kind of pest problem.
Every tech that visited our home was very friendly and respectful. They were flexible with our schedule and easy to work with overall. Great crew
professional and polite he picked up after himself
Tyler and Dan came to my house did a thorough job on finding out where the best for coming into my house took pictures show them to us and set a date to come out and fix all the problems. Unfortunately with the weather being bad they couldn’t come out and do it. I’m not blaming them but I can’t wait until the job gets done. Thank you.
I just purchased a home and we could hear bats in the attic. Pestway got the job done! Hopefully in the spring we will be 100% bat free.
Pestway provided us with complete, knowledgable, competent and very thorough services to deal with the rodent and bat issues in our home. Collectively their technicians spent many hours on site and we look forward to an ongoing relationship with the company to maintain a critter free home. I highly recommend this…
Fast service. Performed quality work. Did work with us on the price, but it was still very expensive.
