Read a ton of reviews for companies in the general area and decided to go with AWR and I'm glad we did. Paul was super quick to get out to our house to investigate and found the entry point. He set up a trap and within a few hours, there was a fat, male grey squirrel in there. He came back out the following day and blocked off the entry point and took care of the squirrel and trap. Couple of days later and no more attic activity of any sort. He did a wonderful job sealing off the prior entry point to make sure we won't have new guests trying to make a home in the attic. It's rare these days to get great service, quality work, and the pricing not be astronomical. Paul was fast to respond, easy to contact, and provided great service with an easygoing attitude. He didn't try to make me feel dumb about not knowing as much as he does. He actually wanted to help me solve my problem and not rob me in the process. I can't speak for any other similar companies in the area, but I would 100% suggest AWR to anyone with critter issues.

He then gave a detailed breakdown of what we MIGHT want to consider in the future and made great suggestions. He stressed that these things did not HAVE to be done immediately or at all if we didn't want to and never tried to scam or rush us. Since he was willing to deal with stuff I wouldn't want to do, I offered him a tip, which he refused. Honest, friendly, direct and no B.S. - I will definitely call on him anytime in the future as needed. Give him your business - we need a lot more people like him!

However, immediately, I was impressed with Summit's fast, clear communications and ability to quickly conduct a survey. This gave me assurance that there was a plan to not only eliminate the squirrels but also to prevent more from returning. Communications throughout the whole process was always proactive, clear, and helpful! Their communications and customer service are a model for companies across industries. Summit stuck with us through a lengthy process (which was no fault of their own). After we caught a squirrel, we heard more noises. Jason worked with us with friendly persistence until the problem was solved by making several trips to isolate where the squirrel was. While I hope, we never have another wildlife problem, I would contact Summit again without hesitation.

DO NOT trust this company for bird exclusion services…read more We paid $350 after their technician showed us video of birds actively flying in and out of our house. Another crew later came out, claimed there were "no birds, just twigs," sanitized the area, installed a metal cover, and left. Now there are flies surrounding the covering, birds trying to get back inside, and we can still hear chirping and movement in the wall/vent area. Instead of fixing the issue, it seems they trapped live birds inside our home while creating an even bigger sanitation problem. Terrible communication, conflicting explanations, and a complete waste of money. Absolutely unacceptable.

It's extremely frustrating to pay $500 for an incomplete service that only took the technician 40 minutes and did not get the job done. Subsequently, I persistently called, left voicemails and emailed for 2 weeks letting them know of my issue and they kept giving me the run around. It's unfortunate because they were so quick to get me scheduled to take my money but when I told them they obviously didn't do the job I paid for, they have been completely ghost. Because of the nature of the situation and the health hazard, I had to call another company to fix the faulty job they did. The new company is excellent, great customer service and I will recommend them to everyone with any similar issues as well as my HOA because we have wildlife issues is my neighborhood quite often. Companies like Jesse James do not care about customers... customers who work hard NOT to throw away money! I do not write reviews often so when I do it's because I value my dollar and do not want others taking advantage. Sadly, I was referred to Jesse James by another company who could not get to me sooner so I'll have to also let them know about my experience so others do not have my same fate! And do not lie and say you were not given access to the interior of the house (like you did in your response to me on Google). If you would've called me back or responded to my emails - had a conversion about any of this you would have heard the truth. Review our invoice that states exactly what we said no to - upcharges your technician tried to sell us for exterior gates around the vents. This is exactly why your customer service is horrible. You as the owner weren't even respectful enough to respond and let me know hey this is what my technician told me but what actually happened? Again, absolutely horrible - all around hands down despicable service and an even more terrible leader who would rather hide behind a computer and lie on the internet than face the truth!

While Jacob is a nice man, however what he charged and what he did at my home there is a…read moredisconnect. Jacob arrived and the first thing he did was to use my bathroom for #2. Then proceeds to take a look for 5 minutes in my finished basement and does nothing in terms of patching or any other solution. Doesn't bother to look again at the exact spot the snake previously was. When asked if there are the possibilities for others was summarily dismissed. He chose not to inspect the upstairs for penetration points or the attic if other snakes would be present. We proceed outside, points out a very obvious hole between the brick and a joint for the deck. Then walks around points out the possibility of entering where wires from the AC unit run, but does nothing to address. Walks around and gets "distracted" by fruit trees 50 ft away from the house and says "yeah i get distracted easy" Then proceeds to tell me to patch the hole and to call him back if anything enters. All of this in under 20 min. Went with him based on yelp reviews but did not get anywhere near value for a inspection/setup fee.

He responded extremely quickly to our initial request a quote on Yelp and was over here to take a look the same day. We live in an older house with a terracotta tile roof which scared off two other pest control people I called over, but Jassen made quick work of sealing all the entries into the attic to keep us squirrel free. Jassen has been doing this for a number of years and clearly commands a depth of knowledge in addressing various pest issues and he took the time to call back and check in with us a number of times to make we were still rodent free. Hopefully we won't have to make use of his services again in the near future, but if we have any more pest problems I know who I will be contacting.

If you need someone reliable, knowledgeable, and responsive, Jassen is the person to call. Highly recommended.

All of the exterior bushes had spider webs, most of the exterior siding and windows had webs. The spiders were getting so bold that they would run across the floor in the middle of the day! I called Shane at Dodson Pest control and could not have been happier. He was extremely prompt and professional. He made a personal visit to inspect and helped me formulate a multi-faceted plan to get our home pest free. He did not try to upsell me or push expensive services. Some of the steps were straightforward things that I needed to do to make his service even more effective. Spiders and ants problems have been solved. I liked working with Shane so much I recently contacted him to help with mice mitigation. These guys know what they are doing and provide a level of service that was completely unexpected. I have used other pest services before but got frustrated by calling a 1-800 number whenever I wanted service. Never again! Shane and his team are consummate professionals. Give them a call!
