What customers said about bat extermination
Pest Pros of MichiganGood communication! Brandon was really friendly, great at explaining everything and answering questions. He kept me calm! He was really friendly with my children as well!
Creature Control LLCCreature Control is excellent. From Dillon coming out ON TIME, in uniform, performing a complete home inspection, preparing a detailed bid on site and also applying the 1st rodent control treatment the SAME day…to Landen arriving on the date scheduled, and walking me through the bat and rodent preventive dwelling…
Solidified Pest ControlSolidified Pest Control came out to inspect and remediate a bat problem we had at our home. Jon, our service person, did an excellent job explaining what needed to be done. He worked hard, did an excellent job and he took pride in his work. The price for the work was also fair and reasonable. Hopefully, we won't…
PestwayUpdating 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!
OrkinVery good job started seeing roaches running once the pesticide was applied I think the gentleman name was Brian who was very professional and did a very good job we will definitely have him come out again for a follow up
Critter ControlCommunication was slow to start but then picked up. Service was good. Technicians very informative
