My name is Tony. I called Dave Scifres of Peoria Wildlife Animal Control this past Tuesday, April…read more20, about the skunk who had taken residence under my Deck. He did a good job of informing me and my wife of the trapping process, and reassured us that he had years of experience and had the proper credentials and certification to capture and remove the Skunk. The week before, the skunk had sprayed under the deck and the odor permeated the entire house, UGGH, so we were highly motivated to take care of this problem. And I informed my wife, I definitely wasn't planning to catch the skunk by myself. Dave promised to come by at 3 pm on Wednesday, and true to his word, he showed up, and meticulously set up three traps at the possible access points, digging holes slightly deeper at the three suspected access holes to accommodate the traps, and blocking off the holes so that the skunk would have no other choice but to enter or exit thru the traps. Thursday morning, my wife texted me at work, and excitedly told me that the traps caught not one, but THREE skunks, all female, and all pregnant! I texted the good news to Dave, and he texted back that he would come over at noon that day to remove the animals. He informed my wife that if these skunks had given birth, the average litter size is 4 babies. Think of that, if we had not hired Dave when we did, and delayed calling him, we most likely would be dealing with not three skunks, but FIFTEEN skunks under our deck. If you are dealing with a skunk problem, I encourage you to call the professional, Dave, his fees are reasonable, and he will take care of your problem once and for all!

I clearly told them I could not have any traps that would injure or hurt our dogs. I paid $524…read moredollars for them to send a tech several days later with "snake traps," that were cut pieces of downspout gutters nailed into the ground with a sticky pad inside. Our dogs are small and they knew that. Our dogs could get cut bc once something was stuck inside they would mess with the traps. I immediately took the traps out the ground. Called critter control to pick them up and cancel service. They put snake repellent down that costs $20 a bag or so and charged me $524. I've emailed and called several times because the consultant said they would refund my money. Thus was 05/20/26 and as of 06/02/26 no response for any managers, consultants or others reference the refund and no credit. This business is the worst and I basically got ripped off. We had to buy our own stuff to try to rid of snakes. Don't use them, they are horrible and their customer service is just a lie.

Critter Control came out, assessed the issue and set up traps that captured 6 raccoons and a possum over a 2 week period, then repaired the area and reinforced the area leading into my garage at a v in the roof. The raccoons have since found other places to nest and finally my home is raccoon free. I think they are great! I 100% recommend their services.

I am very disappointed in your service.

Well the paid Orkin to treat her home. At first everything seemed to be working they came every week then every 2 weeks and then they started coming once a month this lasted like 4 months. And suddenly in May they stopped coming. Didn't answer calls. The bed bugs came back full infestation. Mom called recently and wa told they would call her back and guess what? Not a peep.. yesterday we had to throw furniture out that "supposedly " treated... as many bed bugs as we found it was definitely not. Not dead bug live ones. My handicap mom is severely allergic and she can't even sleep in her bed. Your motto is 100% guaranteed and it's not.
