They came and sealed all openings. Work was very clean and aesthetically pleasing. Would use services again. The price was reasonable compared to others.

When I expressed my phobia of mice, he came right away and didn’t make me wait 3 business days like other pest control I called. Really professional work, paid attention to potential entry points and sealed them in a clean way.

Outstanding. Super nice guy. Thorough. Professional. Explains himself very well. Who would’ve thought that an experience with mice could turn out to be quite pleasant! Thanks, Victor… and Happy Birthday!

We needed holes in the foundation definitively closed. PPD were the only ones I landed on that would block however many holes needed to be blocked, vs a limit, and they also pull out all the appliances to seal the openings in the walls behind them, that we think don’t matter if you can’t see them! They also seal around holes for plumbing. Bait is set such that rodents die outside or in the walls. That may sound gross, but I’m not remotely open to dealing with dead rodents in traps in/outside! Nope! These guys are very thorough and respectful. They provide a 6-month warranty. Our house was terrible so if we need a re-do, okay. But all’s well so far.

Details: Rats or mice • Services recommended by professional • More than 10 animals • Kitchen • Living room • Bedroom • Bathroom • Yard • Animal waste • Animal nesting • Animal odor • 1,000 - 2,000 sq ft • Owner
