After looking in to a few pest control providers in the area, I decided to go with Esquire because…read morethey are a family run business that's been around for many years. Steve asked a few preliminary questions over the phone and scheduled a visit. The morning of, he called to let me know he was on his way and arrived right on time. Bed bug paranoia is no joke. I kept getting "bitten" and couldn't find the source. I know how quickly an infestation could escalate so I knew I had to call in a professional before I became the most hated person in my building. Steve thoroughly inspected my room and my bites and reassured me that it was not bed bugs and more likely an allergic reaction to dust mites. It can be intimidating to invite strangers into your home but I felt incredibly comfortable and that I was in capable hands. I'm fairly clean and do my laundry/vacuum every week but he pointed out things about my room that I wouldn't have thought to consider. He even gave me some tips on things I could try on my own instead of rushing expensive treatments. I really appreciated his judgement free and pleasant attitude and felt that he genuinely cared about my concerns. Thank you so much Esquire!

I used Quick Solution for a termite inspection and it was well worth the money. Jerusalem came out…read moreto do the inspection and spent over an hour finding all of the hiding places where the termites had damaged the house. He also came out in the evening because this was my only time available. He asked before tearing off some of the dry wall, which is where he was sure said there was more termite damage. Sure enough after he tore a hole in the dry wall we could see the damage to the beams of the house. He didn't try to upsell me on any other services which I always worry about when dealing with pest control companies. I also liked how he was very knowledgeable and explained everything he was doing. He knew a lot about termites and termite behaviors which was a plus, especially since I came in knowing nothing.

A mother raccoon and 3 babies made a home under the roof of our front porch. She would regularly…read morecome out and snooze on the roof itself! Killian used "eviction fluid," made from male raccoon secretions, to alarm the mother so she will relocate her kits and herself to an alternative den. They mounted a video camera nearby to monitor activity. Killian said this doesn't always work, and in our case it did not, so Plan B was to use a one-way tunnel over the opening. (The animals come out but sharp steel points around the rim discourage them from going back in.) Sure enough, the next morning, all four raccoons were outside looking for a way down from our roof. Within a couple of hours I watched the mother carry each of the kits into a nearby tall tree. That was the last I saw of them. A few days later Killian returned to cover up the opening and a couple of possible alternative entry points with sheet metal. Excellent service with compassion for the wildlife.

I'm from New England so bugs don't bother me too too much…read more.. At the same time, I don't love to live WITH the bugs and we are expecting a little one soon. We wanted to feel that our home was safe and clean as we make this new transition. We didn't want any poison accessible to the dogs or babies which was why we decided to call a professional cleaner this time. I searched through yelp for ages and decided to give One Hour Best Control a shot. I've heard the name before and I can certainly say that this was one of the best choices I could have made! I'm now planning on having them come 4 times per year! To know that our unwanted critters are being dealt with in a manner so professional is fantastic. We feel so much safer and happier after making this phone call. In a city with rodents in the gutters and roaches infesting all the buildings, to have a pest-free house is massive deal. Darryl is an expert and it's a great feeling to know that you're dealing with the best. "One Hour Pest Control" was the best call we could have made for peace of mind.

When we found out we had a mouse problem at my mum's house, it was a nightmare. I was dreading…read morefinding someone that wouldn't gauge us over the price and still do a good job. We had to warn our next door neighbour and they ended up suggesting OHPC. I was reluctant at first, but after 2 weeks of laying out the regular traps, I was OVER IT. I called and spoke to Ray. I was up front about my stress about the price and he was open about what he could do for me. Honestly a huge relief, because when you're stuck with pest you literally have no choice. I appreciated that he worked within my budget and gave me all the options. Ray was able to fit us in the next morning (THANK YOU!!) We were able to get an inspection and found out that it wasn't a whole family of them. Just 4 or 5! Ray got us patched up and applied rat poison under the appliances, and near the the holes he caulked up. He even came back a week later to pick up the corpse because my mum and I were too scared! So grateful, I know I'm a New Yorker but I just can't!! Grateful for my neighbour and OHPC. It's been a month and we are scot-free. It was a painless experience for everyone but the mice.

Pest pro was worth it for a small mouse problem and minor roaches. I talked to a young man on the…read morephone at length before the appointment. I explained that the technician must arrive prepared to assess and treat in ONE appointment. I specified that he must move appliances, stuff gaps with steel wool, get under radiator covers and plug holes with foam-- no more but no less than that. Pest pro was the third place I called and the only place that was willing to meet my requirements of coming prepared to plug up and treat. The other two places said they needed to do an assessment which in my experience can mean just forcing you to pay and stay home all day twice instead of once. The person who showed up was new to the job but came prepared as requested and did a great job. They plugged behind my stove, placed traps behind my fridge, plugged under several radiators, and left glue traps out. In the end a wooden trap that I placed caught the mouse and I haven't seen another since. I'm pretty certain that the kitchen mice were coming in behind the stove which pest pro mouse-proofed well. It was $325 in the end but it only took one appointment and the problem is totally solved so I would use them again, though I don't think I'll have to because they really sealed up the place and recommended some follow ups which I can do myself for larger holes that they couldn't handle wit steel wool and foam.
