I'd seen some wasps entering the bottom edge of the siding on my house. Corky said the most cost effective solution would be to buy a pesticide and apply it myself every two or three weeks. He saved me about a $100 on the next lowest quotation.
Description of Work: Corky called to assess extent of wasp infestation and remedial action required. Estimates from this company are free.

Andrew Christman came out to look at our problem. He was very helpful. He reassured me that we didn't have termites again. He told me we just had to wait 7 to 10 days & they wouldn't be a problem anymore. Very responsive. He always calls me back.
Description of Work: Yearly maintenance. They come 4 times a year to check. When I came back from Florida after 10 weeks we had stored food bugs.

THE GUY THAT CAME TO TREAT MY HOUSE DID NOT SEEM TO DO A VERY THOROUGH JOB. THE TREATMENT SEEMED TO GET RID OF MOST OF THE EXISTING BUGS BUT DID NOTHING TO PREVENT THEIR RETURN. I WAS TOLD THAT, BECAUSE OF WHERE I LIVE, I WOULD NEED TREATMENTS QUARTERLY, BUT I PAID A LOT FOR A 'JUST FOR TODAY' CURE.
Description of Work: I HAD THEM TREAT THE OUTSIDE, AND INSIDE OF MY HOME FOR SPIDERS, AND ANTS. I PAID THE BILL, AND INCLUDED A COMMENT THAT THEY NEEDED TO COME, AND RETREAT THE HOUSE BECAUSE I HAD SEEN MANY SPIDERS AFTER TREATMENT. IT HAD ONLY BEEN ABOUT THREE WEEKS. THEY RESPONDED TO MY COMMENT BY TELLING ME THAT THE WORK WAS NOT GUARANTEED, AND THAT THEY WOULD COME, AND RETREAT FOR A FEE OF ALMOST $60. HOW ON EARTH CAN YOU PAY ALMOST $160 FOR SOMETHING THAT ISN'T GOOD FOR AT LEAST 60 DAYS???

Response from Ohio Exterminating Co
SHE OPTED FOR A SHORT TERM AS NEEDED SERVICE AGREEMENTS. SHE WAS TOLD THAT THE CONDUCIVE ENVIRONMENT THAT SHE LIVED IN MAY REQUIRE A FEW TREATMENTS TO GET THE SPIDERS UNDER CONTROL. THE PROGRAM SHE ELECTED WAS TO PAY FOR AN INITIAL SERVICE AND THEN TO PAY FOR A REDUCED FOLLOW UP RATE IF/WHEN ADDITIONAL TREATMENTS WERE NEEDED. I''M NOT CLEAR OF HER COMPLAINT, GIVEN THIS IS THE PROGRAM SHE ELECTED AND SHE HAS NEVER PERSONALLY CALLED ME REGARDING THIS MATTER. WE ARE SORRY FOR ANY CONFUSION. THANK YOU, ANDREW CHRISTMAN - OWNER

VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE. WE HAD A MEDIUM SIZED PROBLEM WITH TERMITES IN ONE OF THE UNITS IN OUR BUILDING. ANDREW CAME OUT AND DID AN INVESTIGATION AND RECOMMENDED WE INSTALL THE SENTRICON SYSTEM. WE HAD 2 OTHER COMPANIES COME OUT AS WELL AND THEY RECOMMENDED THE SAME SYSTEM. OHIO EXTERMINATING'S PRICE WAS QUITE A BIT LOWER THAN THE OTHERS TO INSTALL THE SAME SYSTEM. IN ONE CASE THEY WERE LESS THAN HALF.

ANDREW CAME OUT ON A WEDNESDAY FOR THE INITIAL INSPECTION. I SHOWED HIM WHERE THE DAMAGE WAS, AND HE ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE WAS EVIDENCE OF POWDER POST BEETLES AND CARPENTER ANTS. HE WAS VERY COURTEOUS AND KNOWLEDGEABLE ON TREATMENT FOR THESE KINDS OF PESTS. WE SCHEDULED A TREATMENT DATE, AND THE FOLLOWING WEDNESDAY A SERVICE TECH SHOWED UP TO MAKE THE APPLICATION. THE TECHNICIAN WAS VERY HELPFUL IN DETERMINING PRECAUTION AND PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE TO HELP RID THE PESTS. I MADE A FOLLOW UP CALL TO ANDREW TO VERIFY THE PRICE THAT I HAD PAID, AND HE PROMPTLY RETURNED MY CALL. THE QUESTION WAS ABOUT THE ANGIE'S LIST DISCOUNT, TO WHICH HE CORRECTED AND COMPENSATED ME WITH A CHECK IN THE AMOUNT OF THE DISCOUNT. I AM PLEASED WITH THE SERVICE, AND WOULD CALL THEM BACK FOR FURTHER SERVICE.
Description of Work: GARAGE WAS TREATED FOR CARPENTER ANTS, AS WELL AS AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE HOUSE. THE SUNROOM WAS TREATED FOR POWDER POST BEETLES.

HE WAS VERY FRIENDLY AND EXPLAINED THAT THE ONLY WAY TO GET RID OF THE BEES IS TO PUT A CERTAIN POISON ON THE HOLE THEY BURROW IN THE WOOD. HE DIDN'T TRY TO SELL ME ON SPRAYING THE WOOD, WHICH I FELT WAS VERY HONEST OF HIM. HE DIDN'T LOOK CLOSELY AT THE DECK, AND DIDN'T FIND WHERE THE BEES WERE, BUT AFTER HE LEFT I FOUND LOTS IN THE NEIGHBOR'S FENCE THANKS TO HIS DESCRIPTION.
