I did not know it when I hired BC, but despite what they said, anticoagulant rodenticide *does harm and kill* unintended animals. ( BC just commented on this - they did not complete the job correctly, they were not honorable as described. What I am saying here is in fact true and there's a lot you can research on why not to use rodenticides or any poison, or glue traps. They don't solve the problem and cause horrific suffering unnecessarily.) When rodents - mice, rats, even chipmunks, or smaller squirrels - eat the bait, they don't die quickly. They die over several days, 3 to 5 days actually, getting slower as they get sicker. This makes them easy prey for all sorts of predators, such as owls, eagles, hawks, dogs, cats, foxes, and many more. The way to stop rodents from getting into your house is to find and thoroughly seal all access points. Once that has been done, you can use snap traps or the bucket method to catch any rodent that were inside when the openings were sealed. District Wildlife Solutions is excellent at that, and because they are Humane, they are Recommended by City Wildlife, DC's Wildlife Rehab nonprofit. We should never use poison, it causes horrific pain, suffering, and death, not only to the rodents, but to animals both up and down the food chain. BC and most pest companies say that the poison only impacts rodents, and that's flat out wrong. Always avoid poison. To research it, ask for the specific name of the poison and google it along with "secondary poisoning." Several cities and countries have banned rodent poison because it is an indiscriminate killer, and if you don't see the entry points, other roads will continue to get in. So rat poison doesn't solve the problem and it causes a lot of problems. If you don't know that your dog or cat has eaten a poisoned sick/dead rodent, by the time you get them to the vet, it's usually too late. Have you seen foxes with mange? That is often caused by foxes eating poisoned rodents. Just make sure your building doesn't have openings that are access points, and you will protect our native wildlife and domestic pets. Don't let BC or other companies say that genocide or glue traps solve the problem, they do not, and they cause horrific suffering to both rodents and non-target animals.

The appointment that BC Exterminating made with me and didn't keep

I had read some reviews on Yelp, messaged them and they corresponded saying they would be here yesterday between 1-3:30pm. My son and I waited, I even messaged them again to confirm, and they didn't call me till after 3:30 saying they were at my home, we had left the house at 3:30. Communication, punctuality and honest are all very important parts of customer service to me, I will not be going with this company because that doesn't seem to be equally important to them.

B.C. Exterminating Services  removing a hornets nest in Potomac, MD!
 Thank you!

Thanks Oswaldo and team at B.C. Exterminating Services ! They responded really quickly and removed a hornets nest from my moms tree the same day - making her very happy! Fair price too! Thanks again - would definitely use their services again! ao

Great team --responsive and removed my hornets nest that was so large I thought it was an owl perched in my cherry tree in my front yard. Thank you so much! The price was also fair!

This was the best, about the size of a basketball and growing when I spotted it.

See all

Alpha Pest Management

I was very happy with the work performed by Justin and Philip. About a week previously, my…read moredaughter noted "a lot of bees" in the attic playroom. The bees were coming in through a hole in the drywall. There were hundreds of bees throughout the room. My first thought was holy s&$! Alpha pest management was recommended by one of my neighbors. Justin called me back on the day when I put in a service request via their website. While I had to wait a bit that day to get a response (this is not a big firm with lots of sales agents and so forth), I spoke with Justin (an exterminator) himself. I didn't have to waste my time speaking to some sales agent. Just asked me to send some pictures of the bees. He immediately told me they were not carpenter bees, which do not sting, but hornets which do! He came the next day to take a look around and recommended taping up the hole in the drywall. This solved the immediate problem of hundreds of bees getting into the attic. Despite Monday being a holiday, he said he was available. He came with his associate, Phillip, who does the drywall repair. Overall, a very professional and positive experience. I am very happy that these @&$!ing hornets are dead.

In April 2026 I asked Justin to remove three squirrels from our attic and fix the hole in the…read moresoffit that squirrels used to get in and out. Five months after the job was done, the soffit patch started deteriorating and fell apart. I contacted Justin to let him know and asked him whether I could count on him to redo the work. I received no response. This company will charge you a high price for anything that is not pest management, and they will have someone else do the work with a very poor quality of materials and craftmanship. Awful customer service and even worse accountability of their work. By the way, Justin's response below is absolutely false. My advice is that you look elsewhere for real professionals that are accountable for their work.

Unacceptable Customer Service with Miche Pest Control- Virgina…read more I had been a loyal customer of Miche Pest Control for several years, but my experience ending service has been extremely disappointing. I requested cancellation of my service effective September 3rd, and they confirmed it. However, they still charged me for that time period. When I asked for a refund, they refused--even though I was no longer receiving services. This shows that Miche Pest Control values profits over people. Their unwillingness to issue a fair refund after years of business demonstrates poor ethics and disregard for customer loyalty. On top of that, their service quality had already been subpar, which was one of the main reasons I cancelled. I strongly recommend that others avoid this company and instead choose a more reputable provider. You can also check the Better Business Bureau, where you'll find additional complaints from past customers who experienced similar issues My response- that call mentions my renewal is 9/27. Hence the follow up actions. Bottom line that fee includes sept and i am not receiving that due to the cancellation. Its unethical to take someones money and not deliver service. It should be at minimum prorated.
