Pest Solution Services Bed Bugs Specialist

I contacted Pest Solution Services after seeing the positive reviews on Homestar, and was especially compelled by the fact that Akram who runs it, is an entomologist. I had found a single bed bug the night before and was in quite a state about the infestation and disruption potential they posed. Akram responded promptly and clearly with instructions on preparation, and came the following day to treat my apartment. He did a thorough job in bedroom and living room, and has just left after the 2 week check-in which gave my flat a clean bill of health. Akram was incredibly friendly and kind, going out of his way to help, including buying me mattress and box spring covers the next day from an exterminator wholesale store at greatly reduced prices from sleep city or the brick. I am also impressed with the 6 month warranty on his service, which gives a lot of peace of mind that one would not be shelling out large amounts of money again if bugs reappeared a few months later. All in all, I thoroughly endorse Akram and Pest Solution Services as a great service to deal with the horrid experience of a bed bug in the house.

In the last week of June (June 26th and on), I noticed a few bites on my son’s arms and neck. I asked him what happened and since he works outdoors, he attributed them to mosquito bites. By the following week (July 7th) they seemed to be getting worse and I thought it might have been a rash and asked him if he had used anything different on his skin and he said “sunscreen”. We thought the combination of heat and sunscreen had caused the irritation. Finally on the 12th of July, I noticed it getting worse and asked him to remove his sheets from his bed because I believed it was the detergent causing this outbreak. Much to our surprise it was not! He instantly reported that there were a few bugs underneath his sheets and I quickly ran in to inspect. Not only were there bugs along the edge of the mattress but there was fecal matter (black like dots) on his box spring and bedskirt. I quickly went onto the internet to find out what this could be and was horrified to find out it was “BED BUGS.”

I contacted my husband and informed him of the horrific news, we both agreed to have a professional deal with this because it was a territory that neither my husband and I were familiar with. That was when I found Akram from PSS. Akram had a very high rating on HomeStars.com, he used an IPM system and most of all was an Entomologist. I quickly called him that day (July 12th) and his earliest appointment was for July 14th at 9:00am. In the interim, I ran out to Dollarama and bought 20 plastic tarps, 4 rolls of packing tape, shower caps, gloves and a box of hefty garbage bags from Home Depot. I returned to the infested room and placed all of the linens into the garbage bags for disposal, along with the items on my son’s night stand (lamp, alarm clock, etc). We wrapped and taped up the box spring, mattress, headboard, railings and area rug, so that that nothing could escape. We rented a cube van and drove it directly to the city dump. We placed all of his belongings in to hefty garbage bags and placed them in our shed for later inspection and taped off the door so nothing could escape.

On the 14th of July, Akram arrived at my home and noticed a can of raid on my front porch. He quickly asked what I had used it for and I told him it was for the ants outside on my driveway. He was very relieved to hear that I did not try to use the can raid on the bed bugs because that could have worsened the situation. Within 2 minutes of entering my son’s room, Akram was able to show me where a bed bug was hiding on my son’s night stand along with a nest of eggs which he quickly wrapped and discarded. Upon further examination, he informed me that I had a high infestation of bed bugs, nymphs, eggs and feces. Akram asked several questions regarding my son’s where a bouts (travelling abroad, visiting people, etc.). I told him that he had been working the entire time with the exception of seeing a movie. All of a sudden, the lights switched ON! It had to be the movie theatre!!! I was so numb...how could this have happen to us? Akram also showed me feces near the top of my son’s shelves. He told me that I could save the furniture if he dry steamed it. I asked him to steam it all, even though I had no intentions of keeping the furniture. I just wanted to make sure that they were ALL GONE!!! Around 2:30pm, Akram reported he was done and I asked him if he could inspect other parts of my home which he was more than happy to do. I was thrilled to hear that he did not suspect further infestation.

Today (July 20th) Akram returned for second inspection and injected a bed bug powder into the cracks and crevices in my son’s room and closet and told me that its’ effects should last up to six months.

In conclusion if you remotely think you have bed bugs, DO NOT TRY TO HANDLE IT YOURSELF! I would highly recommend you contact Akram from PSS. He is a true professional in his field and has only your best interest at heart. In the end, Akram will save you time, money, grief and most of all...give you peace of mind.

I am so happy with the service I received from Akram of PSS that I am writing this review.
Akram came to take care of an ant (and other bug) problem that I had in my backyard. He was so thorough and detailed, took a long time to go over every inch of my back and front yard to ascertain the exact problem and then did the treatment. He poked in every hole and potential breeding place that he could find and went to work to rid my property of the bugs.
This gentleman is very knowledgeable about insects - he is an entomologist who really understands the habits and lives of insects, so really knows how to solve the problem. I also found him to be a very honest, detailed and professional person, and would recommend him to anyone that wants the job done right the first time. He charged me a very good and fair price for the work done - especially in consideration of the time he took.
Akram is the only person I will call in the furture if I have a pest control problem.
p.s. At the end of the treatment he gave me a printout with details of the chemicals used - very useful in case of issues and for awareness of what was used around my home.

I was horrified to realize that we had bedbugs.This was after two months of thinking my constant itching was mosquitoes. I called Mohammed Akram on July 2nd,& he promptly made an appointment for that day for an inspection. He is knowledgeable,friendly,and a true specialist in his field. As a scientist /entomologist,he understood what we were dealing with in bedbugs,and most importantly how to get rid of them permanently.
On Thursday,he came as planned and spent nine intensive hours in my home. I am so impressed with his work ethic and assurances that these blood-sucking little vampires would be gone. Well,last night was the first restful sleep I had, not having to worry about the bugs.
THEY SEEM TO BE GONE..& I am so LUCKY to have contacted MR. Akram & his company PSS.
The last 2 months have been very stressful not knowing what the problem was. He also cleaned the carpets of the bugs with a dry cleaning system. I live in a semi-detached home ,and would never have dreamed this would happen to us. At the end of the cleaning & application of the chemicals,Mr. Akram gave me more info on the chemicals used & the procedures. I was always informed of what would happen & what we had to do to rid our home of the disgusting pests.He investigated everywhere,baseboards,under furniture,curtains,all nooks & crannies were checked.
So ANYONE in Ontario who is invaded by BEDBUGS,PLEASE call PSS & Mohammed Akram.Your problem will soon be gone & it will be just a nightmarish memory! He took photos of the vermin so I could see where they were infesting the most. With us,it was the 3 bedrooms,& in the living room.There is a follow up in 10 days TO CHECK AGAIN & MAKE SURE THE BUGS ARE GONE FOR GOOD.
I hope to never have to use PSS again,but it is so reassuring to know that if I have the problem again (HOPE NOT) PSS is there.
He didn't just spray & that's it! There was a procedure & scientific knowledge of the bugs,as he is an educated professional.. You can't hire anyone better!

I had a serious bedbug infestation in my apartment for the first time, and Mr. Akram did an exceptional job of taking care of the problem. He explained everything I had to do to prepare for the treatment in a short amount of time and did a superb job of treating the infestation. I have not had any more problems with bedbugs since then. If you need help with pest problems, you have to give Mr. Akram a call. Thank you, sir.

I was not sure what type of bug I had as I have creepy crawlies of all kinds around my window ceilings and carpets. Last thing I wanted was to have bed bugs making a new home in my place. So just to be on the safe side, I contacted Akram who kindly came out of his way to look at the bug specimen. He looked at it and confirmed it was not a bed bug but a carpet beetle. Since Akram is a bug specialist, I was very confident with his examination and conclusion that it was something other than a bed bug. Mr. Akram from Pest Solution takes great pride in his work by carefully assessing the situation instead of inciting fear in people which most companies do. Take my advice and go with Akram for professional and reliable service.

I had a problem with carpenter ants nesting in my garage door frame. Akram came and identified where the ants' nest was and applied the treatment to exterminate the ants. He will coming back for a second treatment to make sure that the ants are gone once and for all. Akram is a true professional and ensures that the job is done properly.

Found bed bug issues in one of our rooms and that caused major concern since we have an infant in the house. Based on multiple reviews on homestars, we called up Akram at PSS. He was very prompt with his response, came by the same day and was extremely thorough in his check up. He was able to show us where the problems were and also dismiss our concerns regarding the bed bugs spreading through the house. He recommended a treatement plan and worked with us to ensure that the problems were sorted out.
His instructions were clear and made sense and put us at ease. His courteous manner and obvious knowledge made him the right choice for us. Infact, we have already recommended him to another friend who mentioned having possible issues with bugs in his house.

We found that we had a bed bug problem that had become serious. For some reason the bugs were biting my wife and not me, so we thought perhaps she was allergic to something. As time passed and we looked for things she might be allergic to, the problem got worse and worse. Eventually we saw the bugs themselves. After searching homestars, we called PSS. Akram came by as scheduled, inspected all the rooms in our house, recommended that we throw our box spring and keep the rest of our furniture because it was treatable, recommended that he treat two rooms (we saw a bug in the living room too), did the treatment, came back about two weeks later for a follow up inspection and treatment. I was impressed by Akram's professionalism, expertise and thoroughness. He looked for and was able to spot the smallest signs of the bugs, and we really appreciated his follow up two weeks later to make sure the job was done well. We haven't seen any more live bed bugs not had any bites since then. Thanks Akram!

I had issues with best bugs and Pest Solution Services has been the excellent resource to treat bed bugs last month.
Mohammed Akram has thorough knowledge and very professional in the industry.He explained the whole process and his analytical and detailed explanation regarding how pest control will help us live peacefully.
I had done this treatment and my day and nights are peaceful.
We would definitely recommend PSS to be the ultimate resource for pest control needs.
Keep up the good work
