Showed up early to our request over the weekend. Helped us accurately troubleshoot the problem and build in some mitigation strategies as a squirrel had gotten into an exterior wall.
He was super helpful!

Joe discovered a whole in the soffit when he came to treat our house. He sent a picture of the whole to me. I asked him if he could go back and fix the whole so he came back the next day to seal it at no extra cost. Appreciate Joe’s professionalism.
Responded quickly to my request, and presented when he said he would. Thoroughly assessed my situation and provided me with options. Provided advice. Knowledgeable and pleasant to work with. Appreciated his time and Professionalism. Would hire Again.

I had Shaffer PestControl at my house twice in a week for totally different issues and the quality of the work is fantastic. Joey knows his stuff and takes pride in his work. I will use Shaffer PestControl in the future over the bigger pestcontrol companies.
