"We contacted Adams Pest Control for a problem wasp nest that I couldn't spray effectively. The technician who came out was Caitlin and she was outstanding. She was professional, efficient, knowledgeable and friendly. Not only did she take care of the nest I was aware of, she was thorough enough to find 2 more and took care of them as well. We had a really good experience with Adams due to Caitlin and wouldn't hesitate to hire them again. Well done!"
