"We hired Elite to take care of a yellow jacket nest in our siding. They sprayed and it looked like the problem was solved. Upon returning from vacation a week later, we found a number of dead/almost dead bees in a bedroom. I called that day (Sunday) and Steve replied to me that afternoon. They came out the following day and not only took care of the one nest , but located other ones and took care of them too. They did not charge me. Very happy with their service."

"Terrible! They were great when they were locally owned. Rotokil purchased them and all went down hill. The changed from quarterly to 3 times a year. Increased the price. They never tell you when they are coming. Just scheduled and hope you can let them in. Tech was great but call center and customer service is as bad as it gets. Rude and dismissive"

"I have been unimpressed and highly disappointed in the services, professionalism, and ethics of your company from the start. Since I have started paying your company all I have received are excuses for why I haven't seen any improvement in the reduction of the bugs and mice. Some of your techs are the laziest I've ever seen. Even your other techs have told me that the traps were not set up right, that what was done was just lazy and that certain techs are just known for doing the bare minimum. I have complained over and over. Only time I receive any sort of service for the inside of my house or my garage is when I complain since I don’t get anything close to a heads up notice of a service date. Then I have to take off work every single time for the subpar service I then receive for the inside which costs me money. All I have received from your company are continued excuses for why my bug and mouse problem has not gotten any better but you sure are quick to charge me. The last service I was charged for was this month which I absolutely will not pay for and if you charged me I expect a refund. This BILLED service was again only done outside because of the lack of notice and the mouse trap box that is in the front of the house is wide open and empty. Haven’t seen any other boxes outside. I wouldn’t exactly call that service! When the mouse trap boxes were originally set up only in my basement the two boxes were put right next to each other on the one side of the basement. None anywhere else in the house. Absolutely ridiculous. Then after continued complaining I received 1 more box in my closet then was handed a stack of sticky traps to put where I want them. Also complained that you were only using poison boxes which take a week to kill a mouse. I can’t believe your company feels a customer is okay with the mice hanging around and damaging walls, wires, etc and spreading germs and feces inside of the house while I wait for it to hopefully die in a week. I also have small children and animals and your company thought poison was just fine! When I had to complain about ants, your tech was so lazy that he only sprayed under one of my sliding glass doors. No where else in the entire house. I had to call back the next week and take yet another day off of work because of the unethical and lazy service I receive from your company because I now had ants in every single room in my house. I don’t know how you keep any customers at all when this is how you treat them and the lack of pride your employees take in their jobs. By the way I still have mice. Now have 4 holes in my walls because of them chewing through. I should send you a bill this time. Also still have earwigs, ants, spiders, and some sort of beetle. Only thing I don’t currently have in my house that I did when I first moved in are the grasshoppers. Your company has been consistently charging me for a fake service as it has provided none of the expected outcomes. Highly unethical and horrible service."

The first steps after invasion in your home is identifying and removing the problem animal. Critter Control of New Jersey specializes in this and will develop a manageable plan of defense to prevent future wildlife problems. The highly trained technicians at Critter Control will find all the entry points wildlife could access and seal those up. Our work is not complete until your home is critter-free! Call us today!

"Just okay. Very responsive in coming out to give me a quote, but I didn't hear from them after the job was sold - I had to call their office three days later to find out when they were coming. I then got a text from the salesman saying they'd be out at the end of the following week, much later than I'd wanted them there since the birds had begun nesting in the soffit again. Also expensive - about $500 for a job that took literally 15 minutes - about $80 of that was for the plastic cap they put over the soffit. Not a lot of companies do birds, though, so I went with this one."

Animal Removal questions, answered by experts

Whereas a honeybee can only sting you once, a yellow jacket can sting you multiple times because they don’t leave stingers in the skin. In the unfortunate case that you get stung by a yellow jacket, it’s important to react calmly and quickly. Immediately ice the affected area until the swelling subsides. You may also take an antihistamine if necessary. If you experience an allergic reaction to a yellow jacket sting or have been stung several times, seek medical care right away. 

DIY removal risks harming bees and you. Professionals offer safe and effective solutions protecting both parties.

Probably not. Many imitation nests are meant to be hung from trees or other tall places, but not all yellow jackets nest up high—most species, such as the common yellow jacket and the southern yellow jacket, build nests in the ground. 

Yes, honey bees can sting, but they typically only do it when they feel their hive is threatened. When honey bees are away from their hive, they’re focused on foraging for pollen and nectar, making them unlikely to sting. Only female honey bees, called workers, have stingers, and they will die if they need to use them. Generally, if left undisturbed, honey bees will leave you alone.

You should never try to remove a bee's nest yourself because it can be extremely dangerous. The amount of bees that can live in a hive depends on the type of bee, but honey bees can have up to 80,000 bees living in a hive. People who are allergic to bees can have life-threatening reactions from a single sting. So, it's best to leave bee nest removal to the professionals who have the knowledge and equipment to do so safely.
