Apollo Pest Control

We've used Apollo multiple times for yellowjacket nests and ant control. They are a small, local company and we've always been satisfied with their work, cost, and responsiveness.

Had appt scheduled for a set time, Monday at 2:30, and set day. He then called and left a message asking if I wanted to set appt for a sooner time. I got the message through a third party but I was unavailable for the second time so I never responded. He called a half an hour before the time when I was unavailable and asked if I was ready for him to come out. I said no, I never agreed to change the appt date and time. He never said he wouldn't be out on Monday. Monday, at a half hour after our appt time had passed, he never showed. I called his wife, she claims he thought we had an "understanding?" that he made it clear he agreed to go to Cleveland to a school on the same day he had agreed to our appt and that children were the "first priority" for him so he wouldn't be out for us. We had a yellow jacket nest in a second story window right next to a street where kids ride their bikes every day and while I realize there is less money in it than might be in a contract with the Cleveland school system, we have kids in Rittman too. The yellow jackets might have stung a child out here, but apparently that never occurred to him. We are happy to hire a company that does care.

We've used Apollo several times. Carl is always prompt, communicates well, and has fair prices.

Carl was out immediately, took care of problem, and we're all happy campers now, bee free!

Very nice man. Professional. Did not charge for inspection call.

Carl arrived early morning and killed a basketball size nest of yellowjackets that extended into our garden room ceiling from outside !...We had 100s of pesky bees that were getting dangerous to us...Carl was very friendly, professional and quickly went to work to inject powder and spray into the nest...He explained that it was important for us to remove it after two weeks or we would start smelling it....He was very knowledgeable and reasonable with his fee !...we would definitely call him again !!!

Friendly, effective, efficient, reasonable service.

I called Apollo Pest Control at 5:15pm desperate for someone to come out the next day and spray a bee nest that had been disturbed by the crew putting in a deck for us (hoping to get someone out before the deck people finished and there was no way to access the nest.) Even though I caught him as he was walking out the door for the day, the gentleman I spoke with was extremely pleasant and helpful and offered to come out the very next day by 8:30am. He came out and handled the nest exactly as promised and I was extremely pleased with his service. If you're looking for professional and courteous service this is the person to call!!

Apollo is the best

Had a problem with ants. Gave me an estimate over the phone. Was able to come out the next day. Very informative. Explained everything.

Fine

Came into work after a long holiday weekend to find that there were bees coming into the office through a vent in the wall. Having had bee problems at my home, I told the office manager to call Carl at Apollo Pest Control. Thank God he did. We came to find out that one of our clerks was highly allergic to these little critters. Carl answered the phone and we explained what was going on in the office and that Sue was highly allergic. Carl scheduled us right then and there. "Give me an hour and I'll be right there. and ldquo; As I expected, Carl was right on time and took care of the bees. He even gave a guarantee that if they weren't gone for good within (I believe 14days) he would come back and retreat for FREE. Needless to say we didn't have to call him back. The problem was solved. As always Carl was very professional and friendly. Another great job done by Apollo. Thank you Carl!!!

Well its that time of year again, the ants are back. I tried calling other pest control companies, but ended up talking to answering machines, until I called Apollo Pest Control. I spoke with Carolyn, I told her what problem I was having and she gave me a price and scheduled an appt. right then. Amazing. Carl came out to the house right on time and was very professional. I showed Carl where I saw the ants and he found the problem right away. He sprayed the area and told me that I still might see some ants, but to give it a couple of days and they should all be gone. Well he was right, after a few days there was no sign of the nasty critters. Thanks to Apollo Pest Control and their great staff.

What more can I say, our story says it all. DO NOT CALL ANYONE ELSE BUT APOLLO FOR YOUR PEST CONTROL PROBLEMS.

About 10pm at night, my mother noticed yellowjackets in the corner of her room. She is also very highly allergic. The 1st company I thought of was Apollo Pest due to the fact that they are a 24 hr emergency service . I called Carl from Apollo and told him what the problem was and that my mother is very allergic. He said "Don't worry, I'm on my way." Carl came out right away and took care of the problem. The only problem is that I had to sleep on the couch, b/c my mother slept in my room.. lol GREAT JOB APOLLO YOU THE BEST!

Carl was very professional during the whole time at the house. The fact that he was able to come out to the same day I called was amazing. THERE ARE NO CONTRACTS TO SIGN, NO SERVICE CHARGES. YOU PAY FOR THE SERVICES PROVIDED AND NOTHING MORE. APOLLO IS PRICED VERY REASONABLE AND VERY RELIABLE AND PUNCTUAL. I would recommend Apollo Pest Control to anyone.

I had seen a lot of yellow jacket activity but could do nothing to reach the nest. Carl came out and pumped a special dust to get up under the siding. He guaranteed it would work and it did. Carl was professional yet friendly and even walked around the house with me to rule out any other problems.

Most of the time I love living in the woods. However, this year the critters are really getting to me. Today was the second time this year we have had Apollo Pest Control come out. This time it was for carpenter bees and carpenter ants.

Getting a timely appointment with Apollo Pest Control was not a problem. Carl was on time. He listened to our issues and walked around with me so I could point out where we knew there was an issue. While Carl was here, I complained about mice and that D-Con is just not getting rid of them. Carl suggested some alternatives which should be more effective and so he also treated for mice while he was here. He explained what he was going to do for each problem and what to expect and then proceeded to complete the work. Carl knows we are having the house painted later this summer. He said to call him if the painters have any problems with bees and he will come back out.

As a footnote, I will mention that in May we had bats in our wall. Carl and Rollin came out and took care of that problem too. While I wish I had had a camcorder running, :-) suffice it to say the bats are gone.

We have used Apollo Pest Control for many years (long before they were on Angie's List). They are clearly focused on customer satisfaction. We don't have them on speed dial (yet) but their number is right beside the phone. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

APOLLO'S INSPECTION MISSED A LOT OF VERY IMPORTANT THINGS. WHILE THEY DID IDENTIFY SOME ELECTRICAL CODE VIOLATIONS AND SOME SIGNS OF OLD PEST INFESTATION, THEY MISSED SEVERAL SERIOUS PLUMBING PROBLEMS, SOME SAFETY ISSUES RELATED TO AN OLD BOILER, MAJOR DRAINAGE PROBLEMS WITH THE HOME SITE, SIGNS OF POOR TILING, THAT LATER CAME LOOSE, AS WELL AS SEVERAL CODE VIOLATIONS AND MISSING INSULATION ON A NEW ADDITION TO THE HOUSE. INSTEAD, THEIR REPORT CONTAINED QUITE A BIT OF USELESS FLUFF, SUCH AS 'LOOSE TOILET', ETC...
