Peter and his crew have been providing services for us for 5 years+ They are conscientious, courteous prompt and professional. They have removed raccoons from our property, I really appreciate their humane methods They checked for bats in the attic and helped control the voles in our yard. Their services are reasonably priced. I have hired them several times and would not hesitate to recommend them.

Buttoned up the house well so that squirrels shouldn't be able to enter the house again. Did the job quickly and without my needing to be there beyond the initial inspection.

Peter Riney is the best. He explained what was going on and what he proposed to do about it. He gets rid of the critters and then blocks all entrances where they might return again. He did this under the deck for the groundhog problem, and in our attic for the bats. With Peter, you get peace of mind.

Critter Control was friendly,listen to our problem, right on time, and obviously knew just what and where to look to solve our problem. Several possible places for mice entry where found along the foundation. However, a major problem was a place over the porch where mice could enter the attic two stories up. A black snake could make the same climb following his mice prey. The problem was the attic entrance not the foundation. Critter Control offered very reasonable solution to our problem. I should have called them rather than keep trying to solve the problem myself by trial and error.

Fine. They came out and set up cage traps to catch the offenders and we'd call to let them know when the traps had been sprung. In addition to groundhogs we also had raccoons and opossums. Who knew! The animals were taken off and released outside of town so they wouldn't return.

It went very well. We are very pleased to have things calm down in our yard after the moles and raccoons were removed. It is a huge improvement. There were three large traps placed in areas where the raccoons had been active. We were instructed to check the traps at 8 am and to call if there were any animals trapped. The raccoons caught ate a good meal and then waited with no damage to them for a few hours until Critter Control came to pick them up and take them miles away to the countryside where they can now live well. The traps were in place for 3 days and nights total and trapped 2 possums and 2 raccoons. We were pleased.

Peter was knowledgeable, efficient, and friendly. He performed inspection and discussed his findings using photos he had taken. He recommended remediation and gave us time to review. We have not seen or heard mice since his remediation efforts!

Very well. My exemplary review is very similar to all the other reviews for this company. Thus, my additional iterations are not necessary Mr. Riney with Critter Control showed up on time did an inspection and determined that a mouse was the culprit. Mr. Riney eradicated the mouse problem and, as I requested, he did a thorough investigation of our home, roof, etc. and its surroundings. We were e-mailed numerous photos of potential areas of critter concern that we will address. The final cost may seem excessive to some in that he simply eradicated a minor mouse problem. That said the thorough inspection of the exterior of our home and peace of mind was well worth the cost to us ($212 with Angie's list discount).we will not hesitate to utilize the services in the future. This is a quality company owned by a conscientious and committed professional.

He gave us a lot of good information about flying insects of this ilk.  Peter didn't want to leave without giving us more for our service call money.  Since we've seen a mouse or two in the garage, he walked around the exterior of the house and spotted a couple of places where mice could have entered. He made appropriate recommendations for stopping up the openings.  He saw a bit of guano that we had never noticed and showed us a bat sleeping behind one of the window shutters.  Peter was very personable and I would call him again for any critter or insect concern.  His bearing was professional and he had an air of really knowing his subject well.
