Mr. Skinner was able to come in on a Sunday the day before our move and treat the house. Immediately was saw roaches dying and it continued for 2 weeks after. Furthermore, when we felt 1 area of the house had less roach death then the other he promptly came in and retreated that day. We will continue to use Mr. Skinner for our pestcontrol needs.

Thomas Skinner is a miracle worker!!!!!
I am one of those people who never get around to leaving reviews. But given the circumstances, I really feel it is necessary.
There was a very bad roach infestation in my apartment! Twice, exterminators sent by landlord came. Both times, there was no noticeable difference.
I did some research and decided to hire Thomas Skinner.
Almost immediately, the roach population began to decline. Within in a few days, there were very few roaches. By the end of the week, there were NO roaches. It is now about a month later and I have not seen a single roach.
Thomas Skinner is very knowledgable, methodical AND most importantly, very effective.
I am usually very skimpy in my praise. But I must give Thomas Skinner my highest recommendation. You will be glad you hired him

Thomas was informative and thorough. He explained what he was doing, where the roach nest was located and put down the poisonous gel. We saw many dead and dying roaches for the first week and a half. It's been about a month now and we haven't seen a single roach!!! We are very satisfied customers and would recommend Thomas. Also, his price was reasonable compared to the other proposals we received.

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
An inspection is recommended to customers if the customer is unsure of infestation type. Once pest identity established then a service date is made. The customer is made aware that some pest issues may need additional treatments.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a licensed pest control professional by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. I am qualified to perform mosquito, bedbug, rodent, food service, public health, termite, flying and insect control.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
While in the military in Lousiana the barracks were overwhelmed with fire ants. I set out everyday to find out what attracted the fire ants and what deterred them. Here I am over 20 years later.
