It's still all over my home and on the ground even after they came back to "clean" it. They charged to "assess" and more to remove two nests. Cost me just under $700 and left with a mess.

We paid a LOT of money for them to get rid of our bats in the attic. I asked many questions up…read morefront including how everything would look once it was sealed up. There were four peaks with holes in them where bats were accessing our house. So they came, installed the cone doors, slopped a bunch of caulk all over our brick house and some foam rolls, and punched holes in our BRAND NEW trim without asking our permission. I was appalled we paid so much money for something we could've done at cost of supplies, which apparently all we needed were the doors, caulk, and foam rolls. The job was not complete (the cone doors needed removed in a couple months), but they sent us a bill regardless and expected payment after the cone door installation. I once again questioned that it would look nice when they were done and they reassured me it would. Fast forward to FOUR MONTHS later, and I've called twice to see when they're coming to finish the job. They finally come while we were gone at work. We come home to find the foam rolls still attached, a messy caulk job, and the holes in our trim not filled in. Stupid me thought they were going to use actual materials to fill in the gaps between the bricks like, I don't know, mortar?! The peaks of our house look terrible and sloppy. And now we are going to have to pay more money for a mason to come, dig all the foam and caulk out, and repair it the way it should've been done. We were rooked. Don't be like us.

I'm not sure how to rate. The technicians that have been here were so helpful and kind. They were…read morewilling to do what they have been trained to do to make things right. However, I am not a fan of their sales tactics at all and also of their tricky contract. Their sales technicians are not well educated on what the company can do and will promise anything to get the sale and a contract signed. They've done a great job with spider control and will come out extra times, if needed. But I've struggled with them making any sort of dent in our vole problem. But I had another company before them that also struggled with coming up with a solution as well. Fenix will at least try and experiment and do what they can. It just hasn't worked yet.... I would give technicians (Maxwell Johnson was the most recent) a 5 star review. The rest of this review does not pertain to them specifically.
