Having never called a similar type of company, I checked with three... This company was incredibly…read moreprofessional beginning with Ms. Jackie. She was fantastic and able to describe what her company could & would do to eradicate the nest of yellow-jackets& wasps that had taken up residence up inside of my soffit and roof rafters. Jackie quoted me a solid price for full service and did NOT try and upsell my situation. They could have responded as an emergency, but I declined and 1.5 days later Service Tech Josh arrived after calling me and providing an exact time of arrival. When Josh arrived, he was prepared, clean, neat, orderly and with a professional, fully stocked service truck. Josh took time to " listen" to the specifics of my issue and was soon changing into his full suit of armor to fight these pesky yellow-jackets. Josh got up into the areas required without causing ANY damage and destroyed this nest of well over 300-500 yellow jackets. Josh showed no fear and took these pest on a SEAL TEAM 6... When done, Josh cleaned up everything and digitally handled all billing. Please note: billing was 1/2 of what was quoted me for the same work by two other local companies. They also did NOT try to upsell me on a quarterly home visit etc. This company did what they promised at the price I was quoted. In my humble opinion: Critter Ridders is the best at what they do in CNY. Paul Clapper, Syracuse, NY

They were not able to find the source of the problem. Then, I reached out to the Optimum. They sent a technician within 5 days for a free-of-charge inspection. He was very knowledgeable and could find the source of the problem within 10 minutes. He also confirmed it was limited to one room. I needed help moving the furniture around, and the technician took care of it. The treatment provided by Optimum got rid of the bed bugs. I had a problem with spiderwebs everywhere and other outdoor bugs. I signed up for the outdoor treatment twice a year. The first one was done late fall, and so far, I don't see any bugs or spiderwebs.

I told them I already had a pest control company, they asked me who it was and I told them I use M&M pest control and they were quick to say they don't do good work. This is absolutely not true, I've been with this company for YEARS, they are consistent with their work, affordable, and reliable. I've never had a problem, Mike and Mark are so nice and very friendly. I have many friends and neighbors who also use M&M pest control and have no complaints and nothing bad to say. It was very unprofessional to ask what company I currently use and then to start talking down on them, bad way to try and gain new clients.
