Chance came and took care of the problem and assured me that the nest of "yellow jackets" who somehow had made their way into the wall would be eliminated. He explained that the type of chemical used would kill the adults but not the larvae. He is coming back in 2-3 weeks to continue treatment. If the residual pest control chemical doesn't kill the newly hatched "yellow jackets" the second chemical treatment will be applied. Chance also said it was just "bad luck" that the yellow jackets got into the house.

Fast forward to this year, when I started noticing signs of mice in my home. I immediately thought of Sean because of the great experience I had previously. He came out promptly, performed a thorough inspection, explained what he found, identified possible entry points, and provided a clear plan to address the issue. Sean is professional, knowledgeable, honest, and takes the time to answer questions without making you feel rushed. It's reassuring to work with someone who genuinely cares about solving the problem rather than just making a quick sale. I highly recommend Sean's Pest Control to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy pest control services. It's great to know that even after all these years, the quality of service remains outstanding.

This is an infuriating review to write, as I have been dealing with this mouse infestation and BC…read moreExterminating since July 18 of 2025 and it is now January 16 of the following year with no solution. I spent a whopping $1,690.70 for BC Exterminating to clear our house of mice with a 60 day warranty that they would come and re-treat the house at the first sign of any droppings or mice. This warranty would start over from the most recent sign of mice. At first, they appeared diligent and competent with outdoor poison boxes and closing out any entrances to the house. They promised "color coded poisons" that would show us where the mice nested by the color of their droppings. (I've never seen a mouse dropping other than black). They promised "escalated poisons" if the mice refused to eat the first round. They said "this works, we've got it". Always, within a few weeks of the most recent visit, I would find new droppings throughout the house. A mouse skittered across our floor during dinner. Another one ran just past my feet as I got ready for bed. I would discover my three year old playing on the ground next to a fresh scattering of mice droppings. I only ever saw two dead mice in my house since the beginning of the treatment; one was in a glue trap we'd previously set, and the other in a snap trap near our garage. To their credit, every time I called, BC Exterminating did follow their own warranty and come to the house - always after a scheduling shuffle so that I could work from home to meet them during the window, which became a dance of its own. There started to be a shift in tone when I noted that this still wasn't working and asked what the next step was. It was now November, winter was coming. Still friendly as ever, they'd wander through the house, say "well, I don't see any mice", or "I don't see how they could be getting in", and then would leave. They started saying things that didn't make sense, like "those look like old mouse droppings" under my desk, which had just been vacuumed, or "maybe you moved some boxes and they were in there", when I knew I hadn't. I spent all of our Thanksgiving weekend clearing every closet, cleaning every corner, trying to find their nest, as BC Exterminating wasn't up for the job that I had spent so much on. There were still mice. Eventually the visits felt more social than substantive. They'd replace one empty glue trap with another, or put more poisons out, but with a reassuring, "I promise they'll be gone by the holidays", they'd leave. I'd joke that the exterminators were my roommates. They'd laugh, I'd laugh, and the mouse issue remained. The warranty was just a burden on my schedule - no success at getting rid of the mice. When I finally asked for a refund this morning, they refused and suggested two last visits, finally breaking the terms of the (ineffective) warranty. I'm at my wits end. I have two small kids and spend most of my life chasing mice instead of a company that I hired to do it for me. I'm vacuuming, chasing away any food I find, and unable to trust this company that said "listen, we know it's hard, but we can handle it". Sadly, they can't. Their services might work for you, but know that if they don't solve the problem in the first round, you have no recourse, no opportunity for a refund, and will host them in your home in perpetuity. Update: unfortunately, BC Exterminators has responded with incorrect assessments of our end of the bargain. More than one deep clean was completed of the entire house, and let me tell you, there is no money that could give back my time for every time I pulled every bookshelf off of the wall, or every toy out of an old toy bin, or every towel and sheet out of the linen closet, only to discover droppings later. Oswaldo - and later Brandon - reassured me that they could get the mice, that kids are messy, that this would be figured out. Every time I texted BC Exterminators it was like talking to a boyfriend who couldn't understand why sleeping over at his ex's house was such a big deal. Every mouse dropping "was probably old, have you considered a deep clean?" (even the ones in the middle of the floor, right after our housekeepers had left.) Every mouse "was probably the last one". We asked for advice every time. I asked if I should throw away furniture. I asked if we should move. Every time they downplayed it. And to be abundantly clear, I have trusted Oswaldo and the many other exterminators who arrived to enter our house without us there, but that's because for a while I was seeing them more often than my parents. Ultimately, I was not paying them for their company, I was paying to get rid of mice, and I can accurately say there are still mice in my home.

I did not know it when I hired BC, but despite what they said, anticoagulant rodenticide *does harm…read moreand kill* unintended animals. ( BC just commented on this - they did not complete the job correctly, they were not honorable as described. What I am saying here is in fact true and there's a lot you can research on why not to use rodenticides or any poison, or glue traps. They don't solve the problem and cause horrific suffering unnecessarily.) When rodents - mice, rats, even chipmunks, or smaller squirrels - eat the bait, they don't die quickly. They die over several days, 3 to 5 days actually, getting slower as they get sicker. This makes them easy prey for all sorts of predators, such as owls, eagles, hawks, dogs, cats, foxes, and many more. The way to stop rodents from getting into your house is to find and thoroughly seal all access points. Once that has been done, you can use snap traps or the bucket method to catch any rodent that were inside when the openings were sealed. District Wildlife Solutions is excellent at that, and because they are Humane, they are Recommended by City Wildlife, DC's Wildlife Rehab nonprofit. We should never use poison, it causes horrific pain, suffering, and death, not only to the rodents, but to animals both up and down the food chain. BC and most pest companies say that the poison only impacts rodents, and that's flat out wrong. Always avoid poison. To research it, ask for the specific name of the poison and google it along with "secondary poisoning." Several cities and countries have banned rodent poison because it is an indiscriminate killer, and if you don't see the entry points, other roads will continue to get in. So rat poison doesn't solve the problem and it causes a lot of problems. If you don't know that your dog or cat has eaten a poisoned sick/dead rodent, by the time you get them to the vet, it's usually too late. Have you seen foxes with mange? That is often caused by foxes eating poisoned rodents. Just make sure your building doesn't have openings that are access points, and you will protect our native wildlife and domestic pets. Don't let BC or other companies say that genocide or glue traps solve the problem, they do not, and they cause horrific suffering to both rodents and non-target animals.

I spent $1,850 with Alpha Pest Services for rodent control, and unfortunately, I'm extremely…read moredisappointed with the results. Justin came out at the end of March, and the service I paid for specifically included attic treatment, sealing the attic edge line, sealing exterior weep holes, sealing an entry point along the garage roofline, and attic baiting/trapping. The entire point of paying this much was not simply to put out traps--it was to identify and seal the entry points so the mouse problem would actually be addressed. Yet only a few months later, I'm once again hearing mice running back and forth up in the attic. For $1,850, I think it's completely reasonable to expect the exclusion work to last longer than a few months. Instead, my experience has been that the emphasis seems to be on returning for repeated treatments every few months rather than actually eliminating the source of the problem. I understand that no pest-control company can guarantee a mouse will never enter a home again, but when you charge $1,850 specifically for rodent control and exclusion/sealing work, customers should reasonably expect the entry points to be properly identified and secured. I paid for a solution to the problem, not an endless cycle of recurring treatments.
