The process went very well. They came when promised, completed the work as promised and were very professional and courteous. My experience with NW Pest control was positive and refreshing. I have had the bat problem for the past 3 years. I hired 2 different "professionals" prior to NW Pest Control, paid a lot of money and never got the problem under control. NW has provided me with a two year guarantee. Update 8/10/12: In early June I found bat droppings in my attack. I contacted NW on 6/12/12 and the technician told me that the person that originally did the job, missed a spot, and that is why he no longer works for the company. He assured me it was taken care of. On Sunday 8/5/12, I had a bat in my living room. When I contacted the company, I was told it would be a couple of days before they could come out. After much discussion someone was sent that afternoon without understanding the problem. He told me the entire house had to be checked and they returned on 8/6 to do that. On 8/10 I had a bat in my living room. Contacted Daren again and he was going to see if he could find someone to remove the bat. He has been incredibly rude to me and refusing to let me speak to the owner of the company. I have left 3 voicemails to the owner in the past week. My house clearly has not been bat proofed.
Description of Work: I had a problem with bats in my attic. NW Pest Control came the day after I called to attic to inspect both the inside and outside of the house. They returned within one week to seal all openings and install a one way exit "door" that allowed the bats to exit the house but prevented re-entry. NW Pest Control returned in mid august to remove the "door". No evidence of bats remain.

I was very pleased at the responsiveness to my email inquiry. I arranged a time and date to meet. Unfortunately I was called away to a family emergency at the last minute and could not meet the exterminator but he handled the entire evaluation without me there, communicated to me my options, applied the solution, charged me and left me a receipt for the services. I could not have been happier with their service or the result.
Description of Work: We had an issue with hornets/wasps near our pool area and underneath some of our shutters. We tried, for weeks to take care of the problem ourselves but it did not go away. Finally decided to bring in professionals. They treated the worse area and there was an immediate result. They also treated the shutters and explained that because they used a liquid that it might take a couple of weeks for it to take effect but it took effect almost immediately. So happy to have those pests gone.

We were just very pleased with them and so far everything is good. It’s guaranteed for three months anyway. We just thought that they were very professional and very thorough. We will definitely use them again. I used the coupon for this service. So the total cost was $150 and there was a discount of $35 because of the coupon. I paid $115 after the discount. It was $150 without the coupon. Their price was excellent. I will use their services again in the future.
Description of Work: I used NW Pest Control Inc for pest control. They actually came out twice. The first time they came out was over a month ago and they recently came out again last week. We had yellow jackets. We had a hornet's nest outside our home and so they came originally a few weeks prior to the second visit just to make sure that everything was taken care of properly.

The technician was professional and appeared knowledgeable.
Description of Work: I called NW Pest Control because we thought we had mice in the attic - based on black pest droppings observed there. The technician arrived, took a look and said we had bats. He explained how they would deal with the problem, then inspected the outside of the house for probable points of entry and gave us an estimate for the work. The only reason we did not go with this company was that we preferred a company that could also offer cleaning of the attic after the bats have left - an additional service that this company does not provide, .

I am on a quarterly plan and pay $100 a visit for which they take care of everything. They spray and take care of the mice problem. It was excellent. I had a problem with ants that came up after their visit and they sent someone out right away to take care of it. I had other questions about other unrelated things for which he went above and beyond to help me find solutions. It was an excellent experience and I would definitely recommend them as they are a good company. I would definitely use them again in the future.

Paul arrived to perform the inspection when he said he would. He was thorough and careful with the house and landscaping. He fully explained the options and based on a reasonable quote we scheduled an appointment for service. Paul came back to oversee the work and we are pleased with the results. The new landscaping and drip irrigation was retuned to it original condition. Paul was a professional and a pleasure to have at the house.

They came out to spray in late June. They were very prompt. They came right away and they took their time to explain everything to us. I actually liked them because they are one of the few companies that don't spray indoors. They just spray outdoors and their chemicals aren't dangerous which is good for animals.

During our visit I learned our intruder was a flying squirrel. We have one "hole in the house" as far as I could tell. NW Pest Control wanted $800 to seal all access points and set traps inside. The 1-year warranty was good only against flying squirrels, no other type. I appreciated their visit but $800 is too much for sealing up a hole. I can set the traps fine myself. So we elected to handle this ourselves.

We had a serious carpenter ant problem this spring. We contacted multiple companies and NW Pest Control was most the most responsive and prompt. They applied the treatment (Phantom) during their initial visit. The effect was gradual, but sure enough the ants were gone within 4 weeks as estimated. We still see isolated ants (1 or 2 per week) but they are not invading like before.

They were courteous, professional, prompt (they came within 2 days of my call!), knowledgeable and answered all my questions. This guy really knew what he was doing - he inspected each ant to see what kind it was! (Who does that?!). He offered me different types of ant killer and applied it the same day he came. The ants went away 100% (and I had a LOT of ants). I would highly recommend these guys and would definitely use them again for any pest contro. Top notch.

NW pest control was a lifesaver. Unbeknownst to us, their had been a pest problem in our house prior to our purchase. It reached a critical level very quickly. NW got someone out for an estimate in a day. When Joe G showed up he was polite, affable, and professional. Despite my barking dog and ill prepared home, Joe empathized with my situation and offered to perform not just an estimate but the services. The problem is still there, but it is minimal compared to what it was before. I am very pleased with the service. Joe actually walked into the house, and goes " I have been here before", and proceeded to tell me what the issues were before I could tell him. He was absolutely right!

Last year the company did an excellent exterminating job for a major carpenter ant infestation. I called them this year to do a termite inspection plus, give me an estimate for preventive services, which I wanted. Kevin arrived within the agreed time and did the termite inspection. I was happy to hear that I did not have a problem. He wrote down an estimate for quarterly prevention services. After he left, I realized that I was interested in only two services/year. I called the company inquiring about the charge for two treatments. They said that they would give the message to Kevin, who was the person to decide that. Kevin did not return the call. I called twice, with no return call. The third time he did call, but he had to terminate the call due to a poor connection. He said he would call back, but he never did. I contracted with another company for prevention services.

They have organic products to use on the inside or your home, which takes care of things for awhile. However, I usually will see ants again within a couple of weeks. If this happens to you, you can call the company between quarterly appointments, and they’ll come back out for no additional cost. Their service is more of a preventative measure; they don’t go after the root of the problem. For example, they don’t attempt to kill nests.
Description of Work: NW Pest Control helps us with general insect control, and they can also help with rodents for an additional fee. They come out to our house once every three months.
