We sincerely apologize to Mr. [Member Name Removed] for not responding to his inquiry. It was not intentional. We didn't receive a notification that we had a message. The current pandemic has had a taxing toll on networks and we have been experiencing issues with emails, texts and phone calls not going through. There is no benefit to ignoring a potential customer, so we hope that if the situation arises, Mr. [Member Name Removed] will give us another chance to show him the great service we know we can provide.Kathy M.

We are in the process of selling a home and during the inspection, insect issues were identified. Chris from Big Blue Bug came out within 3 business days of my initial call and provided his analysis. He was extremely knowledgeable and gave me a great tutorial on the insects in question. He provided the cost and solution and was very, very fair. I will be having him return to my new property to engage in preventative services as well! Great experience overall.

Service Provider Response
We are greatly sorry that you felt our inspector was a little rude. It is always our intention to treat all of our customers with the utmost respect. There may have been a misunderstanding or a miscommunication that caused this feeling. We do think it is important to note that this "customer" did not actually hire us to do any pest control work. This "customer's" review is based soley on a free inspection. As for our price being high, we feel our prices are fair and reasonable for the work that we do and what is covered by our services. Not all services are the same, a lower (or higher) price from another company is rarely for the same exact service. There are a variety of types of service we offer (as well as what other companies offer), and depending on what the scope of the work is going to be, the pests that will be covered by the plan and the warranty given, there can be a wide variety of prices. When comparing prices, it is imprtant to remember to compare all the features of a service when choosing which service to go with. If there are anymore questions or concerns, we will be happy to discuss them further.M C.

The technicians came on time and were very professional. There have been several dead rats in the yard since they came and no more evidence of live rats.
Description of Work
Put bate traps in the yard for rats. Even though there was no evidence of rats inside they put poison in the basement as a preventative measure.

They come when they say they would. They are very dependable. They have pet safe traps as I don't trust any chemicals as I have cats which are very more important to me than anything else. They set the traps in the places where the cats can't reach. They help me taking down hornets too.
Description of Work
We use Big Blue Bug Solutions since 1980. The last time they came out, they were here to fix the ant problems. They do a regular inspection and check everything. I have the annual contract with them.

They've been very good at taking care of the problem. They always come right on time and although I can't remember the exact price I am pleased with it and I never thought it was outrageous.

I initially had them for an infestation of yellow jackets and now they come three times a year for preventative treatments.

The company explained what they would do however I was upset that they did not offer the same information my friend did.
Description of Work
The company is very informative and helpful on their radio show. I asked them to come to my home for a mouse problem I was having. They explained they could set out bait trap and the mice would take the bait back to their nests. I didn't have them do this the day they came out. I later spoke to a friend who said once the mice are poisoned by the bait the company uses that the mice could die within the walls or in a place I would not be able to reach them which would cause an odor problem in my home. After hearing this I choose not to use the company, I am sure they would have told me the same thing had I asked but I was concerned about the odor.

Service Provider Response
Ms. [member name removed], We appreciate your feedback and can understand your concerns. I appologize that the inspector did not discuss the possibilty of an odor and what can be done to try to prevent that. Having an odor from a mice treatment is not very common. There are certain factors that contribute to the possibility of an odor. Depending on the details of your home and where the problem was, it might be the case that you were very unlikely to have an odor issue. As you decided not to hire us to do the work for you, I hope you were successful trying to take care of the problem yourself. Sincerely, Scott Goldman Director of Operations Big Blue Bug SolutionsPamela R.

The experience with BBS has been effective. They are making seasonal visits to our home. They are honest and professional and quite knowledgeable.
Description of Work
We hired Big Blue Bug Solutions to help with pest control for our home. Although the cost was higher than what we have paid in the past, the results were superb and included seasonal visits. This year was the first in many years that we have been completely without evidence of mice or ants. That is saying quite a lot for our rural location where mice are quite prevalent. The technicians are prompt and very professional. We will only use BBS from now on. As we have learned before, what seems a high price at first, is really economical when you see the results.

Very easy to coordinate an appointment and they were right on time. The estimate was accurate and the person who perfromed it was very professional. The best art was the inspector did not try to sell any additional services once he was there.

They come annually. They inspect the house for pest. I have a mouse problem. They sent someone out to set traps on the basement level, the main floors, and the attic. They will check them quarterly. They are very prompt, and professional. They did not try to oversell their services. They did not focus on things I did not ask them to.
