We were saved on a Saturday morning by Viking when we discovered a Yellowjacket infestation of our walk-in closet. Viking rearranged appointments so we could be helped within a few hours. Their technician, Fred, was wonderful and rectified the situation. We will continue to use Viking on a regular basis.
