We hired Wildlife Management Services (WMS) to address a mouse issue in our attic. While their…read morerodenticide treatment initially appeared effective, it ultimately created a much larger and more costly problem. WMS uses bait stations but does not return to remove the dead rodents or the bait itself. As a result, the rodents left behind in our attic became a food source for carpet beetle larvae. This led to a carpet beetle infestation that has since spread into our home. A reputable pest control company confirmed this outcome, noting that it can take up to two years to surface, which aligns with our experience. After multiple treatments, we've been advised that the only way to fully resolve the issue is to eliminate the larvae source by completely removing and replacing the attic insulation--an extremely expensive solution. When I contacted WMS to share this outcome so they could be aware and potentially adjust their practices, the manager dismissed the concern and was unwilling to engage in a constructive conversation. When she asked what I expected them to do and I suggested they educate themselves on this risk, she ended the call. I called back, assuming we had been disconnected, but she hung up again. Based on both the service outcome and the lack of accountability and professionalism, I would not recommend this company.

I used the "Projects" feature in Yelp to get a few bids and AK was competitive. When I scheduled the appointment to have someone come to the house, they got me on the books for the next day. My wasp problem wasn't an emergency situation, but it was great to know they could come out fast if needed. The specialist they sent out was great and he explained what he was going to do and what the expected outcome was. Within 30 minutes, he'd finished up and was gone. I hope I don't need them again, but I'd hire AK again if ever there's another pest issue!

*Update: The general manager contacted me soon after this…read moreencounter. He was upfront and honest about the reasons they canceled: Covid-19 and a crew accident left them short-handed, and he also confirmed there were safety concerns with North Minneapolis (interesting their staff was on their way when they canceled...seems those safety concerns were more the issue than being short handed). I offered to reschedule so the chaos could cool off and he said he would only reschedule if I agreed to take down my reviews - I told him I'd absolutely modify my reviews if he assured me that the blatant lying of his employee was addressed. I have not heard back in over a week. Do with this what you will, but I will not be working with them in the future. Please note that I was fully refunded.* I do not recommend - this company red zones areas they don't want to work in, then will lie to your face about it and hang up on you if you express your opinion on their behavior. Don't support them; take your business to a company that respects the community they serve and has more than a modicum of ethics. BEAST Wildlife Solutions canceled an appointment for attic inspection that had been paid for and on the books for a month. I received the cancelation call after getting a call from their inspector, and within 30 minutes of the inspector's supposed arrival time. They offered two excuses. The first was that "we've been considering a policy for several months to not do work in your zip code, as the homes are too old and require too much work to address wildlife issues." The second was "we didn't realize where you were located when we made the appointment." Both of these are at very best partial truths, if not flat out lies. They knew exactly where I was located when they scheduled the appointment AND when they took my credit card information for payment - they even looked up work they'd done for my neighbor (and told me exactly how much my neighbor had spent on their services..which seemed questionable at the time). This is blatant zip code discrimination, likely due to the tragedies experienced in my community over the last week associated with the George Floyd protests. Let me clarify: I don't believe they've done anything illegal. But, they absolutely are willing to lie to you and will do it with a smile on their face. In my opinion, businesses that discriminate blatantly do not belong in our city. Hopefully this review pushes a few paying customers (all would be awesome!) to more ethical, responsible, and worthwhile options.

Sunday I noticed that I had a plump squirrel with a mouthful of debris running on the power line into my house and running along the 3rd floor catwalk and into some corner of my house. Monday I call 4 different companies. Nick was one of them, he answers his phone and lets me know he can come inspect on Monday, and tells me his rates. Based on his all 5-star ratings, I call him back and we agreed on a time. Tuesday, morning Nick comes to my house at the agreed time. He does the inspection and determines there are a couple of possible entry points. Based on this he lets me know that he could come later in the day with the appropriate traps and equipment. Tuesday afternoon, Nick & son arrives and he sets up his ladders and starts addressing the entry points. Within minutes, he finds the entry point into our roof. And he finds the squirrel and its babies! The squirrel gets away. Nick addresses the potential entry points, and based on his experience, sets a trap for the squirrel by the entry point for its nest and a remote camera. Nick packs up to go and starts driving away. Within minutes, Nick sees on his remote camera that the squirrel is in the trap. Job done! I appreciated Nick's up-front clarity of his pricing, the odds of successfully trapping the critter, and his regular communication. through the process. I will definitely use him again and I think you will be happy if you use him too.

My frustrations with Adam's Pest Control started on their website when I tried to submit a request…read morefor service. I typed in all the requested info and hit submit. It came back with "INTERNAL ERROR/500". I went back and retyped it all and tried again. Same error. If you hit the little red envelope in bottom right corner, it says to type your request ---a big white empty space pops up, but I could not get the keyboard to pop up so I could type. At this point, I went to my email to see if, despite that Internal Error/500, maybe I received an email. Nope. I waited for the office to open and talked to an agent. I told her i wanted to request service. She started to take my information. We soon realized my info WAS in the system... so despite the internal error/500, it did go through! She said an email went out to me at 7:07am. I see nothing. So without asking me, she began rattling off so many dollar figures of possible service plans --my head was spinning. Had she asked if I had a pen & paper, I would have been ready. I know it may sound silly, but after EVERY possible scenario of monthly billing, quarterly billing, and annual billing options she said "not including taxes". She must have said it 10 times. I'm like maybe just say at the end say all of these dollar amounts do not include tax rate of x.x%. The prices were the HIGHEST I have ever heard! The email that was sent at 7:07am did finally arrive at 9:24am. So that's my review. I'm sure they would have done a great job at those prices.
