Red Squirrel in attic

We had a problem with a red squirrel nesting in our attic. I called Joe because he came highly recommended by our neighbours. Joe came out, inspected the roof, sealed up the entry point, vents and potential weak spots. Joe showed up on time and the job took three hours to complete. After a week, I’m happy to say no more 6:00 a.m. wake up calls by unwanted critters. Joe is thorough and his price is reasonable. He is courteous, honest and all around nice guy. Highly recommended!
Thanks Joe!

Removal of squirrels and lock down

We had a problem with squirrels getting into our eaves. What an awful noise. Joe was fantastic drawing them out, identifying their entry point(s) and repairing the roof and vents. He was not the first to try - before we met Joe we contracted other firms who talked a good game, charged a bomb, but fail to deliver. He had to repair their [easy to see for yourself] lousy repairs!
Joe is "the real deal". Simply put, we will not use another pest control company again. THANK YOU JOE!

Thanks For the review. The previous companies chicken wire and lag bolts came off with a meager tug. Yes, lag bolts were used to attach chicken wire to my clients aluminum cladding. Never under estimate the potential of wildlife to take advantage of weak work. Animals have all day to tug on things and loosen up shoddy work with shoddy materials. They will come back.

Wasp Removal

I called Joe because I had a large number of wasps hovering around a covered back porch. They were coming in and out of two openings in the roof of the porch. His method sounded interesting to me (vacuuming a large number of them out before dusting). He worked here for about two hours. I can't yet comment too much on how effective his work was, as he just completed. He told me to call him if I still saw some hovering around in a week or two. Right now I can see that there are some wasps still hovering around trying to get back into the openings, but it seems that they are being turned away by the dust. So far I am very happy with Joe's professionalism and punctuality. I will write another review in a couple of weeks after I can comment on the effectiveness -- hopefully these wasps are gone for good.

Thanks for your review. In this particular case the wasps were entering the siding on two fronts. I have never seen so many wasps. I hauled out well over a thousand wasps and still did a revisit two weeks later as a few were still around. Knowing the extent and relative size of a hidden nest is impossible and by simply dusting I know that based on this job's dynamics it would have been a dangerous situation for this client. Thousands of wasps hovering to get in and wasps potentially entering the home would have been the result of not doing the job correctly. I don't know how many calls I get whereby a homeowner or company just blocked the entry /exit area with a dust or spray. Joe

Bees and Wasps and Hornets, oh my.

After reviewing Homestars, I called Joe to come help with a bee problem in my backyard. I could not only see the bees coming and going from my awning over a bay window, but I could hear them nesting from inside.

Joe came first to investigate, gave me a plan of action, and then took care of the problem in a very short time.

It turned out we had three varieties of flying stinging creatures nesting in our window. Joe took care of it. By the next day, I didn't see any more bees or wasps, nor could I hear them taunting us.

Fair price, great demeanor, and highly recommended.

Thanks Joe!

Thanks for the review. I was amazed at how three different species of bees/wasps could want to set up shop in such close proximity. The bay window was challenging to treat due to some overgrown landscaping which was in my way. In the end I created a nice bonsai out of an over grown juniper bush so that I could reach the underside of the window. 95 % of the wasps were mechanically removed to avoid any lingering wasps and or wasps getting into the home.

Mice and Wasps

It started with a mouse in the 1st floor of the house, and a second sighting on the 2nd floor. No evidence of mice had been seen in the house since it was renovated 6 years ago. We were worried there was a bigger problem. Joe came - he was great, calm and tracked how he thought the mice might be getting into the house. He said there was no infestation. We caulked off areas by the back entrance, he put some screen around the lower parameters of the back porch. Feeding stations were placed around the house on the various floors. A follow-up visit by Joe indicated they had not been touched - so tape and different types of traps were placed around the kitchen area. One mouse was caught and Miguel chased another one outside from the 1st floor. That was it! No further evidence - the entry points were sealed and problem resolved. Joe came to do a final check and there was no new evidence. He was exceedingly helpful and knowledgeable. Joe also took care of a growing wasp nest in the gable of the garage. Thank you Joe! Living near High Park brings visitors of all sorts - we know who to call next time!

Thanks guys for the review.This job involved a few pesky mice that managed to enter the home via a small gap in the siding. The mice weren't hungry and traps were used since their entry was now closed. Finding such a tiny access point was accomplished through a long initial inspection. Sealing the area is crucial towards achieving longer lasting results.Jioe

termites

Joe and Dominic came to investigate the presence of termites. Instead they discovered water damage. I had extensive preventive termite treatment both inside and outside my house They did the work efficiently and cleanly and were a pleasure to have working in my home.Their recommendations were logical and helpful. I would definitely use them again for any pest problems as I value their honesty

Originally, I was contacted to inspect a unit three doors down from this one by another pest control company. As it happened my client was seeing alates ( winged reproductive termites ). Having called a major company in the termite world she was told by the rude receptionist that they were carpenter ants and that she should buy some raid. Having a keen sense she asked for a second opinion which lead my college to recommend Snap pest control. Upon arrival A preliminary inspection revealed that termites were indeed present at the home. I brought Domenic in because we had to surgically remove walls, vapor barrier, insulation etc.. and as a contractor he could do it so that other trades could follow us with minimal work and stress. We bought paper for the floors,and I had a vacuum cleaner running as the drywall was being cut to leave the unit as free from dust as possible. In the end the damage structurally was quite significant and therefore it became evident that all the homes in this row have the same structural flaws contributing to excess moisture levels and hence termites. Having treated 3 of the 5 units already it is clear that the newest chemical ( Altricet ) ) in our arsenal against termites is actually working well. We still have 1 more unit to treat and will be conducting yearly inspections.Joe

WASP HELL

After our neighbour was stung by a wasp that flew from our backyard we were so grateful to Joe's expertise. He provided fast and efficient service to eliminate the wasps flying out of our siding. We can now be rest assured that those horrible critters will not sting our cats or us. Thanks again JOE :)

I used a trick to knock down the numbers of wasps before injecting a dust. There is always a chance that large numbers of wasps can enter a home if they are agitated enough and therefore I prefer to lessen the numbers considerably before treating. I know from experience that this is going to be the worst wasp year I have ever seen.Get the nest taken care of now because by September they will have double or even tripled in size. Joe

Dead Rodent Removal

Joe saved us. We had been living amongst the stench of a rotting rodent carcass for over a week, and we couldn't figure out where it was coming from. Cue Joe and his excellent olfactory skills. He went to great lengths to find and remove the offending animal and to thoroughly clean the area where it had been. He even left us with a mango-scented microburst air neutralizer in case of any residual smell. He was extremely helpful, had a very pleasant demeanour (especially given the grousome circumstances), and we would highly recommend him to anyone in need of pest control. Thank you Joe!!

I never saw two happier people open the door then these girls. Even I was hit hard by the wave of the carcass smell that emanated down the hall and hit me. I knew right away by the sourness and strength of the odor that is was in a moist damp spot. The girls were convinced it was in a wall behind the refrigerator. My olfactory ( I just had to use this word in a sentence ) skills told me to look underneath and inside the lower back part. Having removed the back end of the refrigerator the smell was more prevalent. I used a snake scope and could see some blackened image stuck to the drip tray itself. The problem was the tray was in tight and impossible to remove. The girls wanted the thing out badly so I told them that the quickest way was to empty the contents of the fridge out and then we could put it on sits side and remove the tray. We made a chain and removed everything out, scraped off the cadaver, soaped and sterilized the refrigerator and added some mango scent to the mix. A happy ending.Joe

Thanks for the review. This job was done at night and they were all nicely tucked in for the evening. They didn't even know what hit them. Joe
