I so wanted to leave a better review (but I feel obligated to tell it like it is) because Apple Pests' owner, who is also the Senior tech, WAS very nice and professional and came out relatively quickly (in 2 days) to try to trap the squirrel (I purchased their rodent trapping service) as I had heard loud rustling for a few days in my inaccessible attic area. Unfortunately over 3 weeks, nothing was caught in the first one , and then two , placed traps set on the roof right by the only entrance hole the tech found (even though the squirrel re-entered the home days later right by the first roof trap after that trap was set). Obviously no one can guarantee an animal will enter a trap, but just know I paid over $500 for 3 total visits that caught nothing , but Apple did plug the one roof entry hole found ( but that was only about $100 of the $500). There is no activity in attic anymore at this point....So that's good, but if they don't have the knowledge, and or perhaps bait, and or perhaps best equipment ( traps) to accomplish critter trap and remove success, (or maybe it's only takes sheer luck anyway to catch a squirrel) in 3 weeks, I'd recommend one just wait till no noise is noticed in attic as squirrels ( or raccoons) do leave daily to feed outside) and just get a less than $80/hr handyman to locate and plug the hole or two on your roof and/or install an exclusion door, where it's obvious the critter enters. That should cost far less than half of $500+, which is the absolute minimum you will pay with Apple if they set one trap and seal one hole, even if their trapping methods fail. It's also important to know I was charged $89+ for them to come out when they decided unilaterally to give up trying to trap the squirrel to remove and take away their empty, never caught anything, traps . I was under the impression the trap final removal visit was included in the initial $289 trap setting charge...but no, it's an additional charge as my final invoice clearly states. Sooo, one star for their relatively quick response service and respectful/knowledgeable owner, one star for good job locating/plugging the one entry hole found, but no additional stars because it was a last minute surprise to pay an extra $89+ just for them to recollect their empty trap(s), and their failure in that their expertise did not result in any trapped rodent(s) , and a bit of a lack of customer service of the office staff when discussing my confusion of why the final empty trap retrieval visit surprise $89 fee was not part of the initial rodent trap setting $289 fee. Seemed logical to me if you pay Apple a " rodent trapping fee" to set a trap/catch a critter, it should obviously include their final trip to remove the trap once their service ends, with an animal in it, or no animal in it (as in my case). I'd be happy to post my third and final Apple invoice I received that clearly indicates in it in their words that their visit today charge was for "Trap Pick-up Service-Final" at $89+ tax. Bottom line, I'm not saying Apple Pest are bad folks, as I leaned a lot about squirrel behavior from them, just that they're very expensive for likely not catching and removing from your area the problem roof entry critter, at least in my case (and others too apparently per other reviews). Also, Apple requires you provide your credit card BEFORE they will ever come out. That seemed highly unusual to me as well. Smarter to get a cheaper handyman to plug roof/soffit holes and save yourself hundreds of $ vs the obvious low probability of actually trapping the offending squirrel, IMHO. That's what I'll do next time I hear attic noises. read more
