We had a rodent problem crop up and I called Troy and set up an appointment. He arrived exactly when promised, listening to my concerns and got right to work. Within moments he was able to find the probable trouble and likely point of entry, along the siding base outside. He created a trap plan, etc, along with some suggestions for a long-term fix so that we could preclude the problem from recurring. He followed-up immediately; again, as promised, with a recommendation for a Handyman. Easy to pay via Square: quick and painless, and pricing was very reasonable. It is a pleasure to find a company and/or individual with Troy's professionalism & knowledge in this field. We will definitely use him and his company in the future and I highly recommend Bear Pest Control. read more

They did a very good job, and we're very professional, and very reasonably priced. I would have no qualms about hiring them again, and in fact will do so in the fall when the wasps, Asian beetles, and box elder bugs and other bugs are inhabiting the inside and outside of my home. Overall, I am very happy and very satisfied that I hired them to come. read more

Troy and his team are amazing. I never and mean never (though I should) take the time to post reviews on here. I was blown away with Troy's level of detail and dedication. He listens and is responsive. This isn't some personal friend of the company giving a fake review. I never met these people before I researched to find the right company to take care of our carpenter ant issue. If you have a need for pest control, I would recommend going with Bear Pest Control. Best prices and great service. Helpful hint, call don't email for fast response. read more

Troy is extremely reliable, knowledgeable, and ...funny! And when you're dealing with rodents, you need a little humor to get the job done. I got all my questions answered and made the decisions to deal with our mouse problem with Troy's support, and didn't feel like I got the hard sell or the shaming that I feared. Troy also helped us with some problems in my office condo, and was affordable for both jobs. Give him a call. read more

I can't recommend using this service provider. When contacted about a wasp / hornet nest as well as a possible birds nest that we would like to have removed, the email response was "dismissive" to put it mildly. When we replied with a request to set up the service we never heard back. Not sure if we just caught them on a bad day but with service like that I'll be happy to spend my dollars elsewhere. read more

Reasonable price, amazing service, and I'm happy to patronize an independent local business. Troy is professional, personable, and efficient. He responded quickly to my call about a flying squirrel in my basement, came with a live trap and a strategy. Overnight the critter got trapped and Troy was over half an hour after I phoned to tell him. He was able to relocate it to a nature preserve (not always possible, but permitted with flying squirrels, apparently.) read more

Bear Pest Control - Our quarry in the live trap, on his way to the nature center. Thanks, Troy! - Pest Control Near Me - White Bear Lake, Minnesota

There are wasps nesting in the walls of my garage or in the eves, but Bear Pest Control could not find them. They sprayed the outside of the house, but it didn't knock down the wasps at all. It had no effect. I called a few weeks later to tell them their treatment hadn't helped, and I expected they would offer to come back and treat again, or maybe offer my money back. They surprised me by not doing either of those. Instead they said that was the best they could do, and at the same time encouraged me to get the treatment twice a year going forward. Even though it didn't work. read more

Best pest control in the twin cities. Troy is awesome to work with. He was always prompt to return calls and would get out there as soon as possible. Definitely would use his services again if we still lived in MN. read more

So prompt and came out same day I needed. Inspected the entire house, found some points of entry for mice; and does follow up visits. Really impressed read more

Owner Andy was an amazing ally in getting our pest control problem under control. He is really knowledgeable about how to combat pests and be proactive in stopping them revisiting. His partner Troy was also very helpful. This is a small operation with a lot of heart. It's obvious when you talk to them both and meet Andy in person. I'm writing this review though because it was the extra care and time that Andy took to return across a month-pluse's time that I believe is above and beyond the things you'd ever get from a robotic franchise or corporate entity pest control service. This level of detail and dedication is not something you'd get from buying a corporate pest control service that comes on a monthly or quarterly basis for a huge fee to just collect traps. Andy recommends ways to be proactive and none of them profit him directly. He didn't take our fee and leave. He became our fighting partner. He has gained our trust. We are now proactively building a plan to make sure this inherited house problem stops and he's there as our partner. We are forever in his debt. I'm a true fan. Thanks Andy!! read more

These guys are prompt, professional and efficient. Their prices were reasonable and customer service is excellent. I will use them again.

We thought we had a bedbug problem so we called Troy for an inspection ($150 which can be used towards any work to be done). He gave a same-day quote over Yelp (so fast!) and was very nice when he came. He did a thorough inspection which we appreciated and even more, gave us advice on an unrelated issue. A pleasure to work with and highly recommended! read more

Owner Andy, and his technician Joe were so kind and efficient in helping us remove the wasp nest from our yard. They were very knowledgeable and made it an easy process. I could not ask for a more wonderful company. I will definitely recommend their work to others, and would call them to come back anytime for other pest needs! Thank you Bear Pest Control read more

Troy is the absolute best! I can't overstate it. I have dealt with many pest control agencies and professionals over the years and none of them can hold a candle to Bear. When Troy arrived to discuss my problem, before he even knew he was hired, as we were standing in front of my house discussing it, he saw a hornets nest way up in my roof peak, ran out to his truck to retrieve some equipment, and took care of it without hesitation - just because it was the right thing to do. And that is how he approaches his job - he makes me feel like the result for me is what's important and it's not just about the money. Additionally, he is very good - he solved my problem quickly and completely. He has a great deal of integrity, honesty, knowledge, and professionalism. I highly recommend Bear - incredible. read more

I had a great experience with Bear Pest Control! Troy responded to my request for a quote very quickly (within minutes). He also had the most competitive price and was willing to match a competitor's 90 day guarantee. He was available to come out very quickly (2-3 days later) and was flexible with my schedule. He evaluated my home and ran his plan by me. He identified and plugged the most likely points of entry and set several traps for any mice that remained in the home. He was very reassuring that we would get to the bottom of the issue. In fact, he even said that next Fall (as in, 8+months out!) if we have more mice, then he would come back for free to reevaluate. My spouse and I were very pleased! A week has gone by and after catching two mice, we've had no more sitings. I couldn't recommend Bear more! read more

Troy is the definition of professional, he was the quickest to respond out of all the companies I contacted and never tried to upsell me on extra services like all the others. He was able to take care of me the following day and explained, in detail, everything he was doing. Troy seems genuinely enthusiastic about what he does and I would not hesitate to give him a call again. read more

I hired Troy based on the previous Yelp reviews and could not be happier. We were experiencing problems with ants coming from our attic into our bathroom via the fan vent. Troy responded quickly and was friendly and knowledgeable when he came to the house. He identified them as carpenter ants and told us after the first application that a few more might be necessary to fully get rid of the ants. He was right--he had no problem coming out two more times for treatment until the ant problem was eliminated. We liked his service so much that we hired him again later this summer to apply a general insecticide outside our home. Definitely a local, professional company you should use. read more

Great pricing vs. other options, responsible service and problem (apparently) resolved after numerous visits (all included) in the ​original estimate. read more

No question- top notch all the way. Superb professional service from knowledgeable staff. Rates are substantially cheaper than any other company I called. Don't look any further - call Bear. read more

I cannot speak more highly than Troy at Bear Control Pest Company. We had an infestation of Fruit Flies. Yes Fruit Flies! In December in MN. With Troy's help we figured out that they were breeding in our diabetic cats urine. Instead of urinating in his litter box he (our cat) decided to urinate on the carpet multiple times. So by talking with Troy about their life cycle and knowing that they had to live in and breed in a sugary area. We were able to find the source of the breeding and clean it up. My husband had called Orkin and they were all too excited to try and sell us the $ 149.00 dollar, inspection and clean up plan, that was guaranteed. But only if you paid for the $93.00 every other month "come out and we will inspect" plan. With Troy's knowledge of the fruit fly and it's breeding habits we were able to remedy the situation ourselves for pretty much nothing and save Christmas Eve festivities at our house! Thanks Troy we will definitely call you again if the need arises. read more

Bear does a great job with our office space and warehouse. On time every month with great service and reports. Would highly recommend.
