Critter Control Of St Louis

I have used Critter Control for many years. I used them because their employees were invariably knowledgeable about the various animals often telling me from clues left by the animals exactly what type of animal I was dealing with. They have now been bought out by a large company and it seems as if a lot of that knowledge has left. I recently hired them to deal with animals, I assumed possums. They have changed their pricing structure from a per animal charge to a flat fee. They explained that before hand and while pricey, I was willing to deal with it because of the good experiences I had had in the past. They came out and caught immediately a baby possum. Afterward, I got up the scat so I would know if there were others. There were although the employee thought it wasn't more scat just mud. I pointed out that when it had been fresh, it was obviously scat. I also suggested that they might want to move the traps as I did not think it reflected where the animals had been going. Long story short, they only caught the one possum and left. I hired another company and on day one, they caught two more. I won't use Critter Control again as they now seem to lack the basic knowledge that long ago drew me to them.

They were completely reliable and professional.

They were terrific!

Yikes!  Their traps have caught 3 skunks in the last 3 days.  There is a set up fee (maybe $180?) and a per skunk fee ($80 I think).  At any rate it is FAR CHEAPER than sending the dog to the groomer because she has been sprayed (yet again).  I had no idea there were so many skunks in the neighborhood.  Our neighbor caught some as well. 

They charge $40 if the traps catch a non-target animal such as a raccoon or an opossum.  The trap did catch one raccoon but we let it go (a dicey move if the raccoon is ticked off).

While the critter control person was here, he found an in-ground sweat bee nest.  The charge to exterminate the nest was a little pricey, but also worth it.  Those things can be very dangerous.

The moles have managed to elude the traps so far, but they have only been in the ground for about a week.  I don't remember the price per mole.

It went well

All existing insulation was removed using a HEPA filtered vacuum system to prevent dried fecal matter from become airborne.  Entry prevention and repair, and decontamination and sanitation was performed.  Electrical wiring was checked and if damaged repaired.  R-40 boric acid impregnated insulation was installed.  Heavy wire screening was installed over all gable vents, attic exhaust fan, roof ridge venting, and all plumbing vents. Two plumbing vents were totally replaced due to damage by squirrels. The outside dryer vent was replaced with heavy a metal, rodent proof dryer vent.  Entire house (attic, living level, and basement) was gas fumigated.  In addition, a lifetime guarantee was given for removal any and all animals reentering the house anywhere with remediation if needed at no charge.
There were seven workers and a manager who performed the work over a 12 hour period in one day.  All personnel were professional, thorough, and courteous.  When the job was completed all work areas were impeccably cleaned.

They were fine. They did a good job and got rid of the moles. They come out once a week and check the traps and let me know if they have caught anything. If they did or didn’t catch anything I get charged. The representative that they sent out was really good, very informative and pleasant. It is expensive and not cheap.  They were very responsive, punctual and professional.

I've used them a couple of times and they're fabulous. They're very good. They took care of my issues so it was worth every penny I paid.

I have used them for centuries.  I have under contract three fields.  It's a group contract which makes it nice.  And they seem to be happy with them too.  I do the inspection and then if I need them I call them.  They take care of my needs. They were digging in a drain and I didn't want them there.  So they fixed up all the crevices and things so the mice couldn't get in.

You pay a membership fee when you join and each time they catch a mole you pay $69. We have tried everything ourselves, traps, poison, peanuts, gum, and nothing worked. We finally found Critter Control and started in August and caught four moles by October. Critter Control has done a good job and have done everything they told us they would.

The technician was great.  He arrived on time and promptly took care of the problem.  He went up in the attic with no complaints on a hot summer day and quickly caught all of the babies and removed them, as well as the nesting material, from the attic.  He also put screening in place over the soffet vents that the birds had used as an entry point and suggested a qualified carpenter that could come and enclose our soffets.

See above.  Great company to work with...at least this employee was great!

They came out right away and took take of them. They removed the raccoons without harming them. They also cleaned up after the animals. They are very thorough. They are the first I go to when it comes to pest control.
