Richard Varney of Advantage Pest Control in South Portland, ME is the only pest control service who…read morehas ever been able to get rid of the squirrels that had made a nest in the under eave closet of my old house. In the past four years I have had THREE different companies come and charge me a good deal of money (i.e. $750.00; $950.00 and $1500.00 respectively) and did not eradicate the problem at all. The first time was three years ago and the squirrels did stay gone for a while but they were back this Thanksgiving when the last two services were employed and did nothing except take my money. Richard Varney did things differently than any of these other companies and that is why he is the best. What he didn't do was just stick a trap up on the roof and expect the squirrels to waltz in it after a few days but no longer than five . . . Both companies said they would seal the holes so there would be no way the squirrels could get back in and both were wrong - they did. Richard came to my house, every day, for over three weeks before he was sure they were out and gone. He trapped the adults but there were still babies. He is the only one I know that put foam in the holes first . . . and then waited to see if it remained or was pushed out - indicating that there was still activity. He built a rest for a trap on the side of the house, because that was where it was needed. He is also the nicest, kindest man I've met in this business. I was devastated when the previous company allowed a trapped squirrel to die of exposure on my roof during a severe rainstorm. I called and asked them to please come and get it before it died, and they said, "All their technicians had gone home" . . . and it died a horrible, slow death. Richard was just the opposite. As soon as I texted him that there was a squirrel in the trap, he was on his way over. He cares about both his clients and the animals he needs to trap. You will get no better than RICHARD VARNEY and ADVANTAGE PEST CONTROL. They were simply the only ones in over three years and four companies that could actually do the job they promised. I urge you to contact Advantage Pest Control for any of your future needs.

Rich is absolutely fantastic. When we discovered squirrels in our attic (which was a relief as I…read moreactually had convinced myself that there was a serial killer living inside) he came right over, throughly explained what steps he would take, and set a humane trap for the animals. As soon as the first squirrel took the peanut bait, Rich came right back over (in a snow storm!) to collect the little guy. He repeatedly assured me that he would take him to a nice, safe place, just far enough away so that Mr. Squirrel would not be able to move back into my house. Rich then continued to set traps to catch and release the squirrel family until everyone was accounted for. Finally, once the weather improved he was able to seal the hole in our attic. Chip & Dale will need to find a new clubhouse for their shenanigans this year.

I highly recommend this company. Unlike other pest control companies they called me right back,…read morethey scheduled an inspection right away, and when it came back positive, they scheduled the treatment right away - they made everything incredibly easy and answered all my questions. As I am single homeowner they helped me with the prep. Finally, when I discovered a few days after the treatment that one of my TVs melted (the heat blanket may not have been on properly - it happens), they immediately offered to replace it, no hassle, no questions, no excuses. It was so impressive. Bed bug infestations are incredibly stressful and they took all the stress out of it, acted quickly, didn't make me chase them down like the other pest control companies in the area, and did the right thing when there was damage. (note this was for my North Conway property)

The overwhelming answer, was Anderson. I called, a gentleman answered, asked for our address and said his guys would be there in a bit. He also told me how much it could cost, depending on what had to be done. Two men pulled in a large truck, with a large tank. I had already removed the snow from ground where our septic was. They knew exactly where it was, it took them just a few minutes to dig them up and to take the covers off. He showed us how and where to pull up a filter and clean it out, so there would be less back up. They then did the dirty and finished up. They recommended we get it serviced annually. We will, with them, Anderson septic. They were fast, polite, knowledgeable, and just very very nice. Form call at 8:30 am to the job finished by 12:30. Amazing. We thank you !
