We easily caught it using a humane trap and re-located it yet in a few days, another little mouse appeared in the house. Again, we humanely caught and re-located the new mouse, only to have this routine go on and ON. We thought we were very savvy, looking at every possible point of entry: stuffing copper wire meshing in all suspicious little holes surrounding our foundation & even put stucco in a few bigger openings. However, one at a time, mice kept sneaking into our home! We found Steve & his company Elite Animal Control on an internet search and reached out to him. Within one day, he came over, spent a great deal of time really inspecting & investigating all possible openings. He took his time (and expertise) to eliminate ALL imaginable entrances. However, another little mouse was seen and again we humanely caught/re-located it and then called Steve. THIS situation kept us on our toes for a few weeks...Steve came back a few times and with each visit he discovered a different opening until-NO MORE MICE!!! Steve is, first of all, a VERY thoughtful, intelligent, clever and caring man! We could tell he was SO experienced in the business of thinking like a mouse! AND! He NEVER advocated for harming the mice-yet he did share he has had some jobs which required many means of rodent removal. He has a construction background and clearly understands how foundations, walls, insulation, ducts, plumbing, floors, etc all fit together AND could be ideal places for mice to march in & live. We learned SOOO much from Steve (& we thought we knew a lot!). We HIGHLY recommend Steve & Elite Animal Control to help you with ANY critter-issue you encounter. He is kind, knowledgeable, caring and REALLY knows how to solve animal control issues!

Stewart was extremely responsive and came out within a couple of days to set up the traps. He made sure the traps were in a shaded area so that any captured squirrels weren't roasting in the sun, and came out daily to check/reset the traps and to escort the squirrels to a new area. Both times, he also examined our home for potential entry points and gave us the option to have him seal them or have another contractor seal them for us. Of course, we opted to have him do it, but I liked that he wasn't pushy and gave us enough information to make an informed choice. Hopefully we won't have guests trying to chew their way into our house for a while, but Stewart will once again be our first call if that happens again. Highly recommend!

Wow. This was way more disappointing of an experience than I was hoping for a "family owned"…read morebusiness. The initial consultation was fraught with high-pressure sales tactics including "mandatory" work items that we weren't allowed to refuse if we wanted them to work on our home, such as replacing roof vents, which they never actually inspected, that already had rodent screens on them, and proactive work that, despite never being a problem area for over 2 decades, somehow needed immediate and mandatory protection because "if you close off one area to the critters, they'll go here next". Sorry but the fear tactics just don't sit well with me. I wanted an honest, grounded discussion. Instead I felt like I was treated like some sort of rube to be taken for a ride. Needless to say we went with someone else.

I am using their service and highly recommend them to anyone needing professional pest control.

I don't want to leave a bad review I genuinely want to figure this out and reach a fair solution…read more However, I paid $1,300 for a band-Aid, low quality patch and unfortunately my squirrel problem is still not resolved. What concerns me most is that I don't feel the expectations were communicated clearly before the work started. If there was a possibility that the squirrels could simply make another entry point and I would have to pay another $1,300, I believe that should have been explained upfront. I specifically asked the technician, "Can you guarantee the squirrels won't come back into my roof?" He responded, "I can guarantee they won't come back through the hole we're patching, but we'll be back in two weeks to see how everything is going." The work was completed on Friday, June 12, and it hasn't been two weeks yet, so I'm wondering what that follow-up visit is supposed to include. If squirrels have found another way in, what happens then? When I agreed to pay $1,300, I did so believing that my squirrel issue would be resolved. As the experts, I expected a thorough inspection of the home and to be informed of any other vulnerable areas where squirrels could gain entry. That way, we could have addressed those issues proactively instead of running into this situation after the fact. I would appreciate it if we could come to a fair resolution, whether that's a partial refund or having the remaining three vulnerable corners patched as part of the original service.

Aside from removal (depending on the state of nesting and any babies), I was also looking for a long term solution to keep birds from nesting in the soffit of my home year after year. While Anchor Pest was open to working on my Townhouse, they also have good prices and their removal process eco- and nature-friendly, however they were not able to offer the permanent solution I so desperately need. The representative was very courteous and responsive to my messages and phone calls. They did offer a deterrent (scare balloons) but this was only for short term. (Installed in Spring with removal after end of season.) I was hoping for additional work that would include sealing off access but this was not offered. In all fairness, Anchor was very transparent about the work they do and may be a good option for others when dealing with different pest/wildlife issues.

This was the first red flag. Then a second technican (Desiree) came about 5 hours after the original promised window. She spent a considerable amount of time inspecting our roof and attic for critters. Then she let us know she cannot do the work and that her manager will come the next day. Next day manager comes late. Does a whole another round of inspection and says he doesn't have the material needed to do the work (its like going to the dentist and have them say you need a filling but don't have the filling material). He begins to tell my wife that the cost will be roughly 1,000 and leaves with no work done again. Then we get an estimate of 3500 which is 3x what he said. After being confronted with all the false promises and false quotes he essentially says the technician Desiree and my wife were both incorrect. BE CAREFUL with this company. Get a second opinion, you have been warned!!!
