"The work was excellent. Will came for the estimate and was very polite and kind. He explained the process to me and answered my questions. Fortunately, whatever was in my attic vacated before Will arrived so I was able to proceed with repairs without fear of trapping any unfortunate critters inside my attic. All of the work was unobtrusive and remained outside. J.P. and Austin were the ones that did the repairs. I was very happy with the end results! They too were both very kind and polite and addressed all of my questions. For both appointments (estimate and repair), the technicians were on time. They worked very efficiently too. I was very happy that I found a company who could deal with both possible animal removal and the repair of damage caused by animals getting into the attic."

"Raven Pest responded immediately. The technician was extremely personable and described the process that he was going to employ address Yellow Jacket Bees getting into our house. I was completely sold that the Raven tech was competent and was going to go the extra mile. The Raven tech described how he was going to dust the entry point and follow-up 2 weeks later to remove the siding to see where the bees were nesting in the house. However, as it turns out, the tech did follow-up but did not remove the siding as promised. A call to the Raven Office informed me that it is Raven's policy not to remove the siding. After the follow-up visit by Raven, we continued to have bees in the house. I insisted that the procedure of removing the siding to check on the bee nest, as promised, be performed. The tech returned, removed the siding, dusted behind the siding and replaced the siding. We have not have anymore bees in the house since."

Century Termite & Pest Control, a locally owned and operated business, has been serving Virginia and Maryland for over 30 years. Our technicians are trained, licensed, and certified in pest and termite control. Century follows the principles of integrated pest management. We provide the newest, safest, and most effective solutions to all types of pest problems. Century is a member of the Better Business Bureau, all work is insured and comes with a warranty. Century Termite & Pest is a full-service pest/termite control company - we do wildlife trappings and seal up along with repairs.

"Don’t waste your money with this firm. They don’t deliver. About a year ago, I was convinced by a salesman of the company that the scratching noises I was hearing in my house were caused by mice roaming around in the walls of the house. I spent over $12,000 and took on a $150 quarterly maintenance plan to get rid of the mice. The company replaced all insulation in my attic and other areas. Also, the company told me they sealed all holes that the mice might use to enter the house. Over the past year, I have complained repeatedly about the mice still roaming around in my house. Most times, an agent would come to the house, look around the outside and place glue traps in areas inside the house. These are amateurish actions I could undertake myself. Recently, I complained by letter to the owner of Century, Mr. Brett Nunn, about my mice problem. Mr. Nunn did not respond to my letter."

First Solutions Pest and Home Services is family owned and operated with over 15 years of experience in the industry. When considering pest control, safety should always be your priority, especially if you have children and pets at home. 30 Days Guarantee If pests return between treatments, we'll return at no extra charge. And if we're unable to solve your pest problem, we'll refund your last service payment as long as you're a customer.

"The provider set up treatment outside, but the customer has experienced respiratory issues since then and still has rodents and bugs. Despite instructions not to apply anything inside, chemicals appear to have seeped into the floorboards, worsening her health. The provider charged over $4k plus $185 every three months but did not install traps to catch rodents. The customer does not want them to return and reports the basement is in disarray, contributing to the ongoing issues."

Owner-operated, use of Independent Contractors on certain services. Charges a flat rate. Travel charges may apply. Warning- Growing Pains! As of 10/1/11, Angie's List has been so good to me, and given me so much business that I have to do something I do not want to do; I have no choice, I must hire employees and/or use independent contractors. Please understand, I don't want to, I have to. What that means is that we may not provide the most excellent services that I have always tried to provide, because it may not be me that comes knocking on your door. However much I try to teach and train my employees, they just will not meet up to my expectations, not even my own son! So, I want you, my prospective customers, to know that I am only a phone call away... If for any reason you are not satisfied with our services, please feel free to call me personally (ask for Dave) and let me know whatever the issue is and I will take care of it. Thank you for your understanding... Dave Kilpatrick, Owner.

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

In many places, killing bees or destroying a hive is discouraged or regulated due to their crucial role as pollinators. Specific laws vary by region, and certain bee species are protected due to declining populations. Some states require permits or restrict who can remove or exterminate bee colonies. Always check local laws before attempting to manage or remove a beehive.

If you’re dealing with a bee colony on your property, you might wonder if they’ll leave naturally over time. The answer depends on their circumstances. Bees often relocate if the hive becomes overcrowded, food is scarce, or they face a threat. With that said, if a hive’s location is safe, warm, and with plentiful food sources, they are unlikely to relocate on their own, and the hive may persist for many generations.

No, ground bees are not detrimental to the health of your lawn. In fact, the small holes created by ground bees can actually offer beneficial aeration which moisturizes and nourishes the ground. Additionally, ground bees are highly regarded as vital pollinators, meaning they help plants to reproduce. Unless you’re battling a severe infestation, leaving ground bees undisturbed can boost the health of your yard and the environment.

Yes, honey bees can sting, but they typically only do it when they feel their hive is threatened. When honey bees are away from their hive, they’re focused on foraging for pollen and nectar, making them unlikely to sting. Only female honey bees, called workers, have stingers, and they will die if they need to use them. Generally, if left undisturbed, honey bees will leave you alone.

In certain cases, yes, the bees may go away on their own, but it’s a risk. Some bee types, such as bumblebees, create seasonal nests and then die out as their new queens seek homes elsewhere. But in most cases, you can’t count on the bees leaving naturally. It’s also not a great idea to leave openings in your walls any longer than you have to, which can attract other pests or cause moisture damage.
