Barry was quite knowledgeable and I learned a lot from him. For $165 I received eight mice traps placed strategically in my basement. However, he ignored the squirrel problem. He also suggested that I contact a company to insulate along the foundation walls in the basement, and gave a recommendation, but advised me not to contact them immediately. That company did come within a week (they had an opening) and insulated. In so doing they completely blocked up the mouse baits Barry had placed, and blocked off an area where squirrels had sequestered nuts. The baits evidently weren't necessary. A wasted

This was my first pest control experience and I have to say how impressed I am, from Barry the owner explaining everything, to our first visit with Sam who was outstanding!! She was so patient and willing to get wherever she had to in order to spray all of our unwanted bugs! Looking forward to our next visit!

Great experience with 1st American Pest Control. I had gone with another company before and had substandard results. I called this company, they got back to me FAST, and listened to my concerns, provided me with a number of good options at very reasonable rates, then delivered the agreed upon service for the agreed upon price. Very professional, high quality results ensued that I didnt think were possible after previous experiences. If you want to save yourself some trouble, call them first.

Unprofessional and rude. The instructions that i received from them and from their website were wrong.

It ended up damaging my furniture and belongings because of the wrong instructions that i was given by them. i called the business and the owner answered when i told him my furniture was damaged and the excess powder wasnt getting removed by following the instructions they had given me he said i was suppose to use
