Adcocks Trapping Service

Was initially called to remove two ground hogs that had been living under a ground level deck over the winter. Non-leathal traps were set and baited and both were captured within two days. Unfortunately within a week of their removal, a third ground hog had moved in. Traps were laid and baited. It was caught within a day. Another week later, a fourth ground hog had moved in. A third set of traps were set, this time the ground hog moved on it own accord and was not caught. During the visits, the trapper gave ideas on how to deter them in the future. So far it has worked.

It was a very good experience. They were nice and helpful. They helped in terms of getting a handle on the pest control situation. I enquired among my friends and they said the price was pretty good. I have no more mice in the house.

For a few months we've had birds building a nest underneath the siding on one side of the house. Realizing I couldn't do it myself, I started looking for a professional company. I sent a message to Adcocks, requesting contact by email

Responsive, thorough and good customer service.

Once I called we were able to get them to come out and examine the issue. The technicain gave us a detailed write-up about the problem and outlined our best course of action. They spent a week checking the traps each day and at the end they were to come back and fix the work. The only Issue I had, was that the office should have called me to schedule and appointment to do the work. I had to fillow up so that the squirrels would not eat into the temporary closure. Overall, we had a very good experience and my husband, children and I are extremely pleased with the outcome. No more scratchy noises and no more squirrels!!!

Mr. Adcock showed up on time and closed the vent. He also scanned the property to recommend other points of animal entry. Adcock's is a bit pricey, but peace of mind if everything to me.

It went really well. They did what they said they would for the price they quoted.

They did not find any animals in the attic and the roof looked good .The only thing I needed was a chimney cap, which at the time I did not know that they did this kind of work, so they came out a second time. I'm very pleased with the finished work.

possible Rodent inspection of the attic performed. Rodent presence detected, access ways detected also. Provided DIY professional advice, traps installed and worked well. Provided a proposal for additional services like birds access prevention and others. Great professional servoce, will use them again - soon for the birds. Highly recommended.

They were awesome because they come by to assess the situation because, again, we weren't sure if they were actually in our attic or what and then advised us where they were actually at, then if you want to hire them, they instantly setup the trap that day and lure the animals into it with food without the door coming down just to get them views in coming in and out getting food and then they set the trap door after a couple of days. So it was a mother squirrel and 5 baby squirrels. It was nice to know that they didn't just kill them. They trapped them in the trap, relocated them and came by the house every single day to check the trap. They were pleasant and talked to us each time we happen to be outside and then they told us step by step what they're going to do ahead of time and then they followed up and did it. Such a yucky situation, they made it painless. They were very effective. As a matter of fact, I just referred them to my neighbor yesterday.

I was very pleased with the thorough service, competent manner and helpful advice. I will definitely call them again if the need arises.

Overall, the service provided by the Adcocks team were outstanding. They were actually a pleasure to work with, & they did their job & performed their services in good humor.

Very well. Quick and efficient and very reasonably priced. Other services quoted a lot more for the removal.

Excellent experience. Prompt service call, very professional, found the source of the problem quickly. The trapper thoroughly explained how the entry occurred, and the options for solving the problem. Humane traps were set in multiple locations and as promised they were checked on schedule over a 7 day period. (it took that long to successfully trap all of the squirrels). The repair team worked quickly. Adcock's has my highest recommendation.

"John" called 1/2 hour prior to arrival as promised, and he arrived in the appointment window. We reviewed the reason for the call, and he stated that he would check the home exterior and attic. It was very windy, so he wasn't able to inspect the roof for access holes for rodents to enter. I was confident that no holes would be present, as we recently had roof repair by an Angie's List firm. John inspected the attic, listening, looking, and found no evidence of rodents. All the insulation was as from installation. No tunneling, no pellets. John inspected the house exterior,and found no access holes, but recommended to insure that where pipes enter the home, the hole is well insulated. Whilke no evidence was present to indicate a pest problem, he placed 2 rodent snap traps in the attic as "sentinels" just in case. He took his time, was patient,. answered all questions, and I am confident he properly assessed the situation.

They did a great job. Came frequently to empty traps and remove animals to appropriate habitat. No further problems.

Service went very well. Braden of Adcock's Trapping checked my roof and attic for possible animal entry. Fortunately he did not find evidence of entry and determined that the noise on the roof came from acorns falling on the roof. He checked the roofline and determined that some repairs were needed. He provided a repair quote, which appears to be very fair. He also, cleaned the gutters (no charge) since he was already on the roof. I thought that was very kind. His kindness will ensure that I will use Adcock's for the repairs and any future problems.

We recently moved into this house, and on the first night we heard some small animal activity coming from within the walls or attic. We made a note to call an exterminator, but after the first 2 nights we never heard the noise again, nor did we see any evidence of animals inside the home, so we didn't make it a priority. But then, I found a small animal (yikes) in the lower level of my house on a Saturday night, around 11:00pm. I panicked, ran out of the room, stuffed a towel under the door and left the house. On Sunday morning I called Adcock's Trapping Service, to schedule someone to come out and perform the animal removal. The associate on the phone was very courteous, professional and knowledgeable. I was surprised that anyone answered the phone on a Sunday morning! The associate on the phone gave me the choice of having a technician/trapper come out that day, and pay an extra fee for emergency service, or wait until Monday. I opted for the emergency service. The fee for a home inspection was $95.00, which we were told would be applied to any subsequent service we might schedule. The $125.00 emergency service fee was extra. The technician, Don, came out within a few hours, went into the barricaded room, and identified the animal--a flying squirrel. He then got a pair of sturdy gloves, went back into the room and in very short order came out with the animal in a humane but firm grip and released it back into the woods adjacent to our house. This was exactly what I had hoped for. I subscribe to the philosophy that there is no need to kill an animal that finds its way into our house unless its presence creates an imminent danger to us. Adcock's website seemed to offer services that would be consistent with these views, and that is why I chose them. After removing the flying squirrel, Don did a thorough inspection inside and outside the house to determine where the animals might be getting into the house. He went through each room, even closets, went into the attic, got up on a ladder and looked at the roof line all around the perimeter of the house, went up on the roof, inspected our skylights and entire roof, and checked out the chimney. He went over his findings with me, and indicated that this was an inspection/assessment, not an estimate. He did not find any evidence of animals inside our living spaces, but he did see evidence of squirrels and possibly mice in the attic. He said he would convey the results of his inspection and assessment to the estimator(s) at Adcock's and then they would send out a formal estimate for exclusion services to us via mail. He took the time to explain what service options would likely be proposed, and explained what their exclusion service would consist of. The technician then asked if I wanted to have traps set when he left, but I really didn't want that. He agreed that I didn't need them, but if I'd really wanted traps set, he'd do it. I have to say, I was impressed with Don. As the technician had described to me, we received a written estimate for exclusion services from Adcock's in the mail a few days later, and we have now scheduled the service. They are scheduled to come out this Wednesday, December 19. We will post a follow up later.

Overall, I think our problem is solved. A huge thanks to the real workers and a thumbs down to the phone staff and estimator. When people call with problems, the expectation is that the problem will be fixed when a company comes out to do the work. They needed to be honest and tell me that I would be wasting $175 and not getting a solution for a week. YUCK!!!

No issues. Made it easy with all follow up visits to check and traps and make repairs not requiring inside access. Only had to take one day from work. Kept me informed throughout the process. Quality of work was excellent. Trappers and office staff were professional and courteous. Would definitely use Adcocks again.

Overall the professionalism and punctuality were good, but the pricing for the services and "repairs" aren't worth it.

I have had mouse issues on and off for 12 years. I finally got fed up with my pest control company, which told me you cannot keep mice out; you can only control them so you do not hear them and they do not bother you. I wanted someone to help me figure out how they were getting in in the first place and to fix it for me. After a little research, I called Adcock's. When their technician could not identify any problems at the ground level, he started looking at the roofline. He found three entry points on the roof near the chimney. The mice had been climbing the outside of the chimney to reach the roof. He also found two bats in a soffit. Repairs were made to seal off the entry points and to screen off the soffit. It is wonderful to be able to sleep through the night without waking to the sound of scratching in the walls and ceiling. Note that I gave a B for quality because they came back a second time to redo some of the original repair. The repair had held, but it was not done to the level that they would feel comfortable warranting it or five years. I applaud them for their honesty about the repair and for making it right.

They were extremely professional, knew what they were doing, and they offered a 2-3 year guarantee. They will also come back for free if there are any problems. They were quick, thorough, and didn't make a mess.

Service was excellent, thorough, and timely. My call was responded to immediately, folks were on time, provided super updates, coordinated times around SuperStorm Sandy, et cetera. The price was a bit more than I'd wanted to spend on the repair component, but talk about convenient -- I didn't have to hire two different companies to trap the squirrels and then repair what was necessary, so the value was definitely high. Would use Adcock's again, but hope I don't have to! That said, the other critters I've seen around my neighborhood are possums and raccoons... yuck.

It started a typical Saturday afternoon. We were about to leave when we heard a scratching noise coming from the vent fan in our hall bathroom. After the scratching kept starting and stopping randomly, we figured we had an animal in the fan. We called several places and Adcocks was the only one actually answered the phone on a Saturday. After explaining their services and fees, they paged their removal person and he showed up within the next hour. Bob was very nice and took his time when it came to removing the vent and getting the bird out of the vent. The bird did manage to get free from the bathroom and was flying around the house, but Bob was able to catch the bird and released the bird outside. After that, he went around my house, my roof, and into my attic to inspect all my vents and exhausts ports. In the end, he did not make any repairs, but he did recommend some improvements (wrote up an estimate too). All in all, an excellent and stress free process. Thanks again!
