They were professional and finished the job accurately.  They took extra effort to show us some  pictures and educate us.

I had a great experience with them.  They came over and within an half hour they pin pointed the problem.  They were able to get rid of the yellow jackets that I had in my house and I was very grateful. They were very good and very neat.  They were responsive to my calls and all I have to say is good things about them.

The treatment seemed to work as promised. No more yellow jackets, aside from lots of dead ones to vacuum up.

After a week or so, the outside nest seemed to get really large and we were not comfortable trying to treat it ourselves, so we called Bee Busters back. Dale came out as scheduled and applied the powder to the nest. He was about to charge me $225 (I had the coupon this time) and when I asked why it wasn't $125 like it was when he was there two weeks prior, he said it was because the service would have been bundled in with the other $500. But without me even questioning him, he said he'd only charge me $125 ($100 after the coupon) because it had only been a couple weeks since he was there. He didn't have to do that, but I really did appreciate it.

We have lived in our house for more than 8 years and have never had a problem with yellow jackets before. It seems we hit the jack pot this year. I just hope it doesn't happen again soon. I know I can rely on Bee Busters, but man, it's expensive!

Dale did an inspection of the house windows and found more nests developing in window frames on the sunny side of the house, which he pointed out to me.  He cleaned out all of the "cocoons" and dry grass and left a non-toxic chemical behind for good measure.  The whole process took about an hour.  The charge was $325 for the first window and $25 for each additional window that needed cleaning and treatment.  The work is guaranteed through December 31, 2011.

We had nasty wasps on our deck. Over-the-counter sprays didn't work. We checked Angie's List. We called Bee Busters. They came, assessed the situation, donned the beekeeper suit, and dealt definitively with the problem. No more bees! Another win for BeeBusters and Angie's List.

They were very responsive - the only company in the area that I could find that was able to handle the 3rd floor access. Originally they thought they might need to do a more extreme extermination (which would have cost a lot more) but once there, they confirmed they could do a less aggressive treatment. It was great that they assessed the situation and used the less expensive approach, since I would certainly have paid for the higher priced service.

Mary and Dale have been very responsive in terms of scheduling, and very helpful in terms of explaining the life cycle of bees, what we could expect over the winter if we did or did not take action now, etc. His time at the house to apply the powder was relatively short, but they guarantee their work through the end of the calendar year so it's reassuring to know they will come back for free if his initial application didn't kill the nest. I feel that $325 (their basic price) seems a little high, but I did not bother getting other quotes because I wanted a bee specialist to do the job, not a general exterminator.

We had a very active yellow jacket community making its home on the side of our house and chewing away at our deck furniture. I was very pleased to get service the day after I called (they squeezed me in). The owner's wife pulled to the side of the road to take my call and was very helpful and sympathetic. Her husband arrived the next day and took his time to inspect the whole house (he spotted a hornet nest that I had missed), discussed the treatment of the wood furniture that the bees were consuming, explained what to expect in the next days and weeks after spraying the yellow jacket nest. He couldn't have been more knowledgeable or professional. A price was quoted before the work began. It was expensive but I was very pleased with the entire experience.

They provided me excellent service. Dale, the owner came in and removed the bees safely. He cleaned the honey out of the rafters. He was very knowledgeable, professional and expensive. Those usually go together. I would absolutely hire them again. I recommend you call him to come out for a visit.

Everything went fine. They gave us an estimate and they actually started that same day. They were punctual and professional, and I would use them again in the future.

I called Mary in a panic when the angry bees were in my house and wasn't sure what to do. She gave me a lot of useful information and was able to schedule the appointment within two days. I had called later on a Saturday afternoon and got an appointment for Monday morning first thing. Jim was great and quite knowledgeable about bees and pests in general. He was clearly enthusiastic about letting us know what he was doing and why. They were a little late but I was called in advance and told they were going to be late.

I HAD TO WAIT OVER A WEEK TO GET IT DONE, BUT I FOUND THE WORK WELL DONE. HE WAS VERY PLEASANT, VERY POLITE, PROFESSIONAL AND KNOWLEDGEABLE. THEY INITIALLY MESSED UP MY APPOINTMENT TIME, BUT I STAYED STRONG AND THEY MET THEIR AGREEMENT. YOU APPRECIATE BEES, JUST NOT WHEN THEY ARE NEAR YOU.

HE TOOK CARE OF THE PROBLEM. THEY GUARANTEE THEIR WORK AND THEY DO RESPOND. IT MAY TAKE THEM A DAY OR 2 IF THEY ARE BUSY. THEY TRY TO USE THE LEAST TOXIC PRODUCTS. THEY HAD TO USE A LADDER AND THAT DOES COST EXTRA.

ADDITIONAL COST TO HAVE THEM SEAL THE WINDOWS/VENTS WAS NOT WORTH IT. YOU SHOULD JUST DO IT YOURSELF (HEAT CAUSED IT TO COME DOWN AFTER 2 DAYS SO I HAD TO REDO IT ANYWAY). OTHERWISE SERVICES WERE GOOD
