Larry walked around, checking for ground wasps and ants. He got to work immediately and when he was finished, he walked us around the yard to show us exactly what he had done, the materials he had used and WHY he had used them. We felt Larry took a lot of time going over the procedures with us-even suggesting products we could purchase on our own if the problem occurred again. I'm happy to report that his treatment was effective and we didn't need to do anything else.
Description of Work: We used an Angie's list coupon and received $90 worth of pest control...wasps and ground ants. Larry returned my call quickly and arrived promptly to take care of our problem. He was very helpful and told us how we could handle the problem in the future. We would definitely choose this company again and will refer friends to them.

I found West Side Pest Solutions as a big deal on Angie's List. We had been having trouble with mice in the basement for several years and I was ready to call someone to deal with the problem when I saw the ad. I expected to have to wait several weeks to have an appointment scheduled but Larry, the owner, picked up the phone the day I purchased the deal and scheduled the visit 2 days later. Larry arrived promptly at the time scheduled. He was really nice and easy to talk to but more than that he knew what he was doing. He crawled under my deck, and found the hole the mice were using to enter the house, blocked the hole, and even set mouse traps to catch those that were already inside. I am really happy to have found Larry and West Side Pest Solutions and will recommend him to anyone looking for professional and personable pet control services. Thank you Larry and thank you again Angie's List!

Thanks for the report, Member. It is always fun to find the "mouse hole" but remember that those little rascals will keep trying to find another way back into the comfort and safety of your home. Keep those traps set and let me know if there are any problems. Larry

I bought an Angie's List coupon ($75) for Westside in the spring. Beforehand, I called Larry Rufledt and asked him if he could get rid of my box elder bugs. He said that he could spray in the fall when they congregate on the sunny side of the house. I called him when this happened and he came out the same day. He sprayed, avoiding my freshly-cleaned windows, and the bugs have been dying by the hundreds. At the same time, he also sprayed around some of my trees where there are carpenter ants. I'm expecting lots fewer of them in my house over the winter this year as we have never sprayed for them before. Larry is personable and helpful and I will definitely hire him again.
Description of Work: Sprayed south-facing side of the house for box elder bugs.

Thanks for your kind words. Keep your eyes open for any of those large black ants inside your home this Fall and Winter. Give me a call if you see any live ants and I'll take care of them for you. I'll give you a call in the Spring to put a barrier around your home to keep ants away and lets plan to treat those box elder bugs next Fall before you get your windows washed. Thanks again, Larry

Upon arrival on the first visit, Larry walked the entire yard with me and was very insightful with lots of advice for managing wasps and other pests. He found several hidden wasp nests and then treated those areas.
Description of Work: Larry treated a couple of wasp nests and even came out and re-treated a rebuilt nest for free.

Was having some roofing work done and a yellow jackets nest was discovered. Purchased a coupon for them off of Angie's List and they where able to come out that same day and spray the nest. They took the time to explain the product that they were using and how it would work. Very professional and will definitely use them again the need arises.

We first had West Side Pest Solutions out to treat a wasp problem on our deck. That went well, so when we sited carpenter ants later in the summer we knew who to call. Always effective and affordable.

Father and son team, Larry and Larry Jr. as I recall, were prompt, courteous and pleasant. Called Friday afternoon and they came out Saturday morning. At first it didn't seem like the product they applied did anything, but I think it just took a few days to take effect. I would use them again.

Very good experience. I will keep this company's name and number in case I need them again as well as referrals to neighbors.
Description of Work: He called me back very quickly and discussed my concerns. Planned to come to my house within a day to apply treatments. He gave me a follow up call on what he had done and what I should expect. He also stated if I did not see the situation resolved (wasp problem) within the timeframe we discussed I should call him and he would come back to re-treat the area. That wasn't necessary. Eveything went just as he had stated.

I noticed an increase in tiny ants around the kitchen sink. Local treatment (spraying under the sink) did not sem to alieviate my problems so I contacted Wes Sid Pest Solutions (taking advantage of a coupon program). The owner showed up on time and allowed me to explain my ant issue and concerns. He inquired about other areas in addition to the kitchen. He then sprayed around the foundation and then checked inside my attached garage and a bathroom window where he recognized ant activity that I could not see. He sprayed these additional areas and within 48 hours there were no more ants outside and soon thereafter the inside ants also vanished. Of particular note was the carpenter ant infestation he located beside my garage door. Two years previously I had noticed their activity and sprayed them with an over the counter remedy. I was astonished to see the dead ant bodies a couple of days after the professional spray application. Through today, September 11th, I have seen no more ants inside.
Description of Work: The professional arrived on schedule, determined if I had any concerns about the poison, thoroughly explained the plan of action, and then applied the poison. He took initiative to listen about any other previous bug problems and remedied that also.

Thanks for your kind review. Remember to keep your mousetraps set inside your home to get rid of any mice trapped inside your home and to make certain that mice don't find another way into your home. Thanks for the referral.

The deal for pest removal came at a good time. I had just discovered mice in the house, so I bought the deal and scheduled an inspection. After he was done and the traps caught the remaining mice, things have been mouse free.
Description of Work: Larry performed an exterior and interior inspection for evidence of mice and points of entry. He blocked off the entry points he found and set a number of traps. Finally, he reviewed his findings with me, showing me where the traps were so that I could check them to see if any more mice showed up. After one trap location caught about 3 more mice in the following two weeks, no more have been caught. As part of the deal, he came back on 8/29 and did an exterior fall treatment for insects.

My wife and I just moved into our home from out of state, and in a couple weeks discovered that several different insects were getting into our home. I called the next morning from work, and spoke with Larry. He was very friendly, and knew exactly which insects I was talking about from just a very rough description. He even agreed to come out later that same afternoon! Larry was very friendly, and walked around the home with me to see the main problem areas. He also walked around with an extended duster to get cobwebs out of the house and garage ceilings. He then sprayed inside and out, and the whole process took less than 90 minutes. It has been a month since the service, and we have had no problems since! We would definitely recommend this company.
Description of Work: All inside and outside areas around our windows and door openings were sprayed for pest control.

Went great! I called and they responded immediately and set up a very quick appointment time. The young man who did the work was very professional and did a thorough job. My only disappointment was that they didn't take away the nests they knocked down and the dog got at them before I noticed. Not a big deal but it would have been nice to have them dispose of the nests.
Description of Work: Removed about 6 or 7 wasp nests and treated area to reduce possibility of new nests being formed.

I could not be more pleased with our expierience with this company. We had an underground yellow jacket nest at the entry of our garage door and patio. I had been stung twice and have apparently become allergic - the dog got it once. My husband tried to remedy it with at least 3 cans of bee spray over a weeks time and flooding with a garden hose. Didn't even make a dent. When Larry (owners son) peered into the patio brick crack where they were coming and going, he saw right away why we were unsuccessful. They were going into the block foundation of our garage - complete different direction than we had expected. No way could we have made any success in their removal. He was so knowledgeable and professional. Knew just what to do. He treated the entry crack area with a special liquid chemical. Checked the rest of the house and property for any other nests we didn't know about and removed some high up paper wasp nests. They were gone within 24 hours just like he said they would be. I am now able to sit in my patio area again - very thankful for this service. I will definitely be calling on West Side Pest Solutions for any future pest control needs. Very impressed start to finish.

The person providing the service called immediately after treating the furniture (we were not at the house when he treated the furniture). He was very friendly and professional. As mentioned earlier, I was impressed with how quickly they responded to our message and very prompt in getting out to our home.
Description of Work: We purchased the wasp control service via an advertised deal. We received a call back the next day (on the weekend!) and were at our home the following week. No nests were found in our yard but our wood swingset and patio furniture (which was being stripped by the wasps) was treated with a non-toxic spray that kills the wasps once wood is ingested. We saw the number of wasps decrease--now we rarely see them.

It went very well. He was responsible, did a great job, was knowledgeable.
Description of Work: I bought a coupon on Angie's list for treating my house for wasps. He called very promptly and scheduled an appointment. He asked what kind of wasps I had and seemed to be very knowledgeable. The first day he came, he couldn't find my house and sprayed my neighbor. He called later and I told him it was the wrong house so he came the very next morning and did mine. This was done in June and I haven't had any wasps around my house or deck area all summer. It's been lovely to be able to be out on my deck.

I received a "deal" from Angie's List for removal of wasps and within the hour after I purchased it they had called and came out immediately and removed our wasp nest as I am really allergic to bees. Very knowledgeable and it was great that they were able to come the same day and take care of the situation. Would definitely recommend and will use again.
