John was attentive, knowledgeable, and professional. Not only did he eliminate our mouse problem, he had an eye for finding their entry points and filling those gaps to prevent future infestations. We definitely will use his services again in the future if/when other issues arise.

John is a reliable skilled professional. Freedom from worry is a good feeling. John continues to be diligent in keeping to the plan, and so far it has been successful. John 's responsiveness and communication has been terrific. We would highly recommend John and his services! Update- John listens and he went the extra mile to further investigate and it paid off. I give John high marks.

We had a great experience working with John at Old School Pest Control. He and his daughter were incredibly thorough and kept coming back until the pest issue at one of our rental properties was completely resolved. John was very accommodating with my schedule, which I really appreciated as a parent of young children. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process, and after each visit he provided a detailed invoice outlining exactly what was done and what products were used. Great local small business that genuinely cares about their work.

Toni Roth
We have been working with Old Pest Control for several years. We were experiencing mice, especially in the ground floor of our split level home. John came in & from day one, he has been highly professional & tackled our infection. We were very comfortable with John's plan to initially eliminate the mice infestation & currently maintain the environment. When an appt is made, John is at our door! We are very satisfied with the fee Old School Pest charges for service & always 100% satisfied. We highly recommend the skill & service John offers through his business.

John was very responsive and took care of my bee problem in less than 24 hours. He immediately saw where the bees were entering the soffit and building a hive. He was professional, friendly and informative. I would highly recommend him.

Did a great job very professional. Had to ask him for the sheets about the pesticide used provided a good bill. Stay in touch in a reasonable manner

no call back
Provider response
I remember your voicemail and I returned your call within minutes of receiving it, I left you a voicemail and never received a return call. I do get busy and did not call again. I apologize for that but leaving a 1 star review because you didn't receive a return call when you did is petty. I can only do so much especially during the busiest time of year for me to touch base with customers. Since you never called me back I figured you called others looking for quotes and found someone else. Since you leave 1 star reviews after never actually receiving a service to accurately rate the business I am thinking I dodged a bullet with you as a customer anyway. I am a small business and a solo operator that works 60-70 hours a week this time of year. Have a great day.

John came to our apartment building to do preventative pest control and when asked by my wife if the pesticides were pet friendly he hesitated before saying yes. We have two service dogs that are unable to do there service dog duties for the next 30 - 45 days because in fact the pesticides that were sprayed in our apartment were in fact NOT PET FRIENDLY AT ALL. The photo attached is what one of our dogs leg looks like after going to the Vet and paying over $700 for a severe allergic reaction to the pesticides. John’s response was he has never had a problem with anything he has sprayed before but won’t be coming into our home again. Let me say that our dogs were not the only ones that had issues children from the building have also had allergic reactions from the pesticides and had to go to the doctors for treatment.

Update: John contacted me and apologized for the miscommunication and offered a full refund. He took ownership of the misunderstanding and I feel confident that he made an honest mistake in not mentioning the charge. I appreciate his prompt responsiveness and overall demeanor. - - - Warning- there is an undisclosed dispatch fee. We were charged approximately $133 for a 20-minute consultation. We called because we heard sounds in the attic and thought we might have raccoons. John arrived a few hours later, went up to the attic to check on things, and then went outside to check around/inside the chimney. In all, he was at the house for about 20 minutes and informed us there were no pests, and the only thing to look out for were stink bugs in the fall, which we’d want to spray for. Then we were charged $133 for the visit. This was a surprise- as again, there was no work to be done other than confirming that the attic and chimney were clear. I can’t imagine the price of service if something actually needed to be addressed! I would recommend Natures Way Pest Control, who have visited twice for different consults and have not charged us anything for either visit. They are who I’ll be contacting this fall for any stink bug issues.
Provider response
Sam, thank you for taking my call this afternoon, I apologize for failing to mention the charge for travel and time to inspect for animals in the attic, I honestly thought I had mentioned that during our phone conversation and I clearly failed to communicate that. When you asked at the conclusion of service what the charge was it made me think I had mentioned the fee. I have refunded your card after our phone call this afternoon. Again, thank you for taking my call and allowing me the opportunity to correct my mistake.
