Reviews of Critter Control Of Omaha (Pest Control)

Sharon Inman

Thank you Gary S for handling our place of business with such professionalism. We appreciate you so so much!!!!!

Barbara Mansavage

Tom was very professional. He took time to explain his proposals. I would highly recommend him.

Therese Nisbet

Pleasant and knowledgeable but $200 for 15 minutes of time seemed extremely expensive. Cory came and looked at what we were doing in order to get rid of a raccoon, said we were doing what we needed to do and left.

Mark Rickley

Cory was very professional in explaining the process and I received a complete proposal for work that was required before he left. Really knows his stuff regarding bat removal and sealing entry points.

Jim Ferguson

Gary and staff were outstanding! Kept me informed during the whole process and communicated very well! Give them the highest rating possible and will refer them to as many people as possible. Refreshing to find a Service that is A+. Awesome job, and many thanks!

Luke Schwartz

Richard was informative and efficient on his visits. After the first meeting, he just let me know when he checked on my property and what he found. The voles were completely removed after 2 or 3 visits.

Becky Pittack

Timely removal of bat from front porch and a plan to help keep them away!

Jean Wilcox

Great service! Such a relief to know who to call from now on.

Julie Hellbusch

Excellent service! Richard was very knowledgeable and gave options on taking care of the Vole problem. His communication was outstanding. Three weeks later and we are vole free! Thank you for the professionalism and service. Julie Hellbusch

Gina Hansen

Alex and Tom were great to work with. They helped remove a bird trapped in our fireplace. Friendly and professional.

William Clark

Cory came out to our house to help with a local bat issue. We had seen a bat flying in our house one week prior,. Cory inspected our house and gave us a complete breakdown of the situation. We sat down and reviewed the various options available to remedy the situation. What I liked about Cory is that he worked with us as a partner in solving the issue. He is very knowledgable about wildlife in this area. I strongly recommend Cory and Critter Control for your wildlife management needs.

Denise Wehrle

So happy we worked with Critter Control of Omaha! Tom was fantastic and easy to work with! I appreciate the educational aspect of what we, or they, can do moving forward now that our bats have been evicted! Thanks so much!

roger edgar

Gary and his team are phenomenal. I have referred many customers to Critter Control and they have all had outstanding experiences as well.

Bob Whitesel

More communication, didn’t follow up as promised

Don fey

Alex is always great, keeps us informed and very professional

Sue Calef

This is the 2nd time Tom came to my home in response to critter concerns. He is very knowledgeable and was helpful in both cases. I will continue to use Critter Control and ask for Tom.

Beaufield Berry

We had a full in raccoon party happening in our attic for months. Not only did Tom at Critter Control get all the animals removed, he did all the repairs so they couldn’t come back. And he was walking around on the roof like a CHAMP.

Kathy Loewens

I’ve had bats in my house for several years. This last episode when I could not get the bat to fly outside I posted my dilemma on Facebook. An acquaintance from a few years ago saw my post and recommended Tom M. Coming home from work I discovered the dead bat in my garage, called Critter Control and asked for Tom. Not only did he respond to the call to pick up the dead bat, he offered to inspect and fix the problem same day rather than waiting for a future appointment. This helped me out immensely. Now I did not have to find time off work to get this taken care of. I was very impressed with the service given by Tom M.

Brian Bayliss

Just paid $200 for an "inspection" where they supposedly will tell you what the issues are you need to resolve to keep pests out. Instead it was a $200 sales pitch, complete waste of money. The person who did the inspection also used scare tactics to try and sell us on it, by saying it will cost more money if we try to fix it ourselves because we will need to call them eventually. I could understand if it was a free inspection, but when you are paying $200/hour, I expected more than a sales pitch. I would suggest starting with a company that does free inspections if this is what you are looking for.

James Henrichs

Tom was knowledgeable and answered all the questions I had about my bat problem. He honestly went above and beyond to help me out. He is a great representation of this company and they are lucky to have him!

Austin White

The Consultation - I had a raccoon in my attic, which the lovely receptionist helped me confirm my suspicions over the phone, before we set up the appointment. I don't know what the receptionist told Cory the technician, before he arrived, but he was very condescending about the whole situation. Didn't believe it was a raccoon without looking at anything first. I showed him what i believed to be the entry point and he proceeded to then tell me it was too small for a raccoon to get in there. He went up in the attic to check everything out; couldn't have been five minutes before he shouted down, "Its a raccoon." In the end, Cory suggested: traps, sealing, bug bombs, spraying raccoon urine, etc which totaled over $600, assuming it was not a pregnant raccoon which would have inflated the price to about $800-900. The "Work" - He determined that two traps adjacent to each other on the roof (sorry no photos) and duct tape was the solution for this initial visit. I have a lot of squirrels and stray cats around my house so I was worried about accidentally trapping one and having to pay the $60 fee to remove the animal, re-bait and reset the traps. I was told that it rarely happens after I asked why he didn't put one on the inside of the attic if they weren't going to seal the entry point. Two weeks later, my neighbor told me Critter Control caught a cat on my roof, released it and reset the traps while I was at work. They then nailed cardboard over the entry point. Three days later, the traps were removed and half the cardboard, passive aggressively torn down, which what seems like a middle finger because I chose not to continue their overpriced and subpar services. I suggest Borland Wildlife Solutions: http://apex-wildlife.com/ They actually solved my problem faster, at a better price and with incomparably better service.

Travis Smith

Cory did a great a job of calling ahead of the scheduled time, and was here promptly at 8:00 for his scheduled time. He was really professional and did a great job of searching around the house for any of our Bat related problems, and climbing on the roof to double check some things as well. He even showed me pictures of possible problems, and gave me a couple estimates with different options. This was all for an estimate. The guy who showed up did a great a job. HOWEVER, there website states right at the top "Call for a fast & FREE estimate today". The estimate WAS NOT free, and when I initially called, they didn't say anything about the charge to come out here, and I was blindsided by it. I received an email to give a review right away, and so I am. I have not had any work done yet. When I do, i will add to this review, or write another one.

Alan Fisher

Very professional assessment of our unique situation.

Ashley Beam

We spotted a mouse in the morning around 8 AM. Called Critter Control and they were able to send someone to take a look same day (945 AM!) Tom inspected the outside of the house and gave us plenty of feedback as to the potential problem and solutions. Service was fast and thorough.

Tom T

They have been quick to respond and help us get rid of bats in our attack and help with a woodpecker problem. I would highly recommend them.

Mary Scheer

I have been extremely pleased working with Critter Control and specifically Cory. He explained everything he was going to do ahead of time - the what and the why. After his assessment, he walked me through his findings and next steps. I feel very confident that we have a good plan in place and these uninvited guests will be relocating soon!

Jamie Chambers

Pretty much I have decided that if there is a critter in my house it must be out to get me. Considering each discovery of critters I have been sleeping in my bedroom. I wasn’t sure I would ever want to sleep in my bedroom again after I woke up to a bat flying around. But once Critter Control came out and they were so kind and did such great work I was finally able to work up the nerve to sleep in my bedroom again. Then when I woke up to the sound of little feet in the ceiling above my head I was FOR SURE there was a new critter trying to get me. I spent the following days sleeping on the couch in the other room because obviously the critter wouldn’t find me there. When we scheduled for Critter Control to come back I wasn’t sure how long it would take me to want to sleep in my room again. But once again they were SO NICE and respectful. He asked a lot of questions and explained to me what the possibilities could be. He checked everything over and eased my mind. I did sleep in my bedroom again that night and it felt so nice to be able to sleep so well. Service like that is worth it’s weight in gold. Thank you so much for providing a peace of mind to my hysteria of critters. :) :)

Julie Erickson

Tom M. came promptly to our home, and he assessed the situation with bats in our attic. He was very familiar with older homes like our 1890 Victorian house. Tom set up a solution to rid our home of the bats and will take care of the situation in the spring. He had many options and was very sensitive of our concerns as well as the cost to do this service.

Douglas Webb

We have bats! Cory was courteous, friendly and helpful, also arrived when he said he would.

Taylor Walet

Alex was fantastic, total professional, knows his "critter stuff"!

Paige

Cory was a fantastic help with resolving our raccoon problem. He demonstrates the utmost customer service. He made sure to let me know when he would be at my house, explained what he was doing, answered my many questions and explained the process every step of the way.

Todd Rannals

Kelly and Jeff are great to work with. They always get the job done right and clean with no damage. Also their advice is worth its weight in gold. Thank You!

Kristen Buzan

Tom was awesome dealing with our bird situation! Easy to work with. Price was pretty expensive, but the work was done well.

Sarah Alexis

I had a female raccoon make a hole in my roof to have 7 babies in my attic! It was horrible. I called critter control snd with 2 business days Tom came out to set traps. He also set traps for moles. Every day or so he came to check the traps and moved them around. Finally the raccoon was captured after about 4 days. She was atleast 25lbs. Tom came right out removed her and her litter. He went above and beyond to remove them by taking thr babies out one by one. Who were on the opposite side of the house as the original entry to the attic. Tom also removed 1 mole from my property. This was a total relief. At the end of the removal Tom repaired my roof and gave every service that was needed to restore my home. Im very pleased with critter control.

Maria Jacobsen

My husband and I are very pleased with the professional work of Critter Control of Omaha. The service and work they do really help from these little critters from entering into the home.

Tom Rice

Alex was very knowledgeable and did a good job explaining our options. His inspection was very thorough.

fyrtamer

Tom was knowledgeable and personable. A joy to speak with him. He went about his business, and wasted no time in getting done. Thanks Tom!

Rebecca Hamilton

Tom was very helpful and found where the squirrels were getting in. He also secured a screen that day. I thought he assessed the situation quickly and was very competent at his job. I like that it is a live trap and he checked in. He is extremely knowledgeable and I feel very happy about contacting Critter Control.

Steven Distefano

Tom was very professional and went over all the details. Seemed very knowledgeable.

Cliff Ehlers

Jeff & Kelly do a great job of getting unwanted pests out of the house. The price & service are fair and reasonable, I will definitely use Critter Control again!

Erin Shanley

Nice folks. They are timely and informative. Their prices are a little outrageous though. $189.00 to come look at what I explained was already there and then 60 dollars for every animal caught, sheesh. Just seems like a bit much to set some traps up. I'll probably just trap them myself next time. I did appreciate their help though.

Daoka Collins

Tom was very informative and professional. He did a great job in educating me in the critter issues of our house by explaining all the options. He was very mindful in asking about standing on our washer and took his shoes off as well. He took great picture to show you the areas that need to be sealed up and detailed other preventive services as well without being pushy. I appreciated that everything he covered with me he then also e-mailed my husband with all the details as well. Prices I believe are very reasonable too. I would highly recommend Tom to all my family and friends.

Shane Harrington

Wow I have never been treated so poorly in my life on the phone! First the answering service was completely rude to me because I didn't want to give more than my first name, phone number and reason for calling. She was an answering service not even the actual company. Then the company called back and was rude and said next time I need to give the answering service ALL the info that asked for. Ummm no I don't need to give some random answering service my personal details just to get a call back from your company. I will NEVER use your company again and I will make sure everyone else knows not to as well. Run from this place as fast as you can!!!

Sandra Watson

Great job!

Margaret White

Critter Control has done a great job removing both squirrels and racoons from my house. They deliver what they say and help with preventing future animal invasions.

Jon Krueger

Cory did a great job, prompt and professional, very glad we went with Critter Control

Jeff the Hicks

Very nice folks but very expensive. Almost $450 to kill 4 moles in our yard. Unfortunately, after all that, there are at least 2 moles left.

William French

Cory was very helpful identifying problems and discussing ways to solve our concerns.

Jeffrey Barry

Company does a thorough job taking care of mome situation. Had a pretty big problem, currently no mole activity!

Lisa Schraeder

the gentleman came out to inspect the exterior of our home. Only stuck his head through the attic opening and then wrote a bid for$2200 in "possible entryways"

Linda Spooner

Cory was very helpful toward helping me understand the process and the significance of each step. His courteous and professional demeanor is a credit to his company. There was never a "hard sales pitch", just details on the various options. We are close to the end of the second week after clean up and so far so good!

Lonnie Mercier

Excellent work and keeping in touch.

Jerry Brockman

Very knowledgeable, prompt and courteous.

Paul Adams

Alex did a great job. He was knowledgeable and very courteous. If we need critter control again, they will be our only call. Thank you Alex.

G Hoffman

We had raccoon(s) chew a whole in our siding and were inside our attic. We contacted Critter Control of Omaha and within one day Specialist Alex Lopez arrived and explained what he could and would do to removed the raccoons from our attic. He put my wife's concerns at ease. He set up traps and told me how to make my house less attractive to raccoons and other large pests. It should be noted that during this process, he returned every day without an addition charge to check the traps and progress. Following his advice and plan, the raccoons left our attic at which time he sanitized it and sealed the holes. I would highly recommend Alex Lopez from Critter Control.

Rita Scott

We had a racoon, actually several come into our attic and they would fight in the late evening into early morning. They were above one of the bedrooms and when they fought it sounded like the celling was going to cave in. We called Critter Control and Tom was assigned to us. I can't say enough and how pleased we were with him. He came every morning, placed the cages out on our roof and tried hard to catch these horrible sounding animals. It all ended and they finally left and we never heard them again. This company worked fast and again, Tom did everything he could to help us. It was worth the $89.00 dollars they charge to come out the first time. Thank's Tom, awesome job! The staff is as well very friendly and we have never had any issues.

Mary Sramek Levesque

We had this noise in the attic, and sometimes the walls, of our house. For years. It was upstairs, and the kids never told us. (We heard it after they moved out.) After I found one bat sleeping in a box in the attic, and had the Humane Society come and get it, Critter Control fixed the major entry points, got the bats to leave. Then they cleaned up the droppings, and replaced the contaminated insulation. When I see just about everyone on the street dealing with the same little critters, I am glad we had the work done. Bats do not belong in people's houses!

Terrance Jacobson

Tom was a great tech! Very knowledgeable when going through the inspection with me. Even though he was there for bats, he gave me a couple tips about my minor wasp problem. Definitely recommend!

Sean Merryman

Very professional and experienced. I have used their services multiple times and it is exactly as you would expect a company that is keeping up with technology and it's customer's needs. I prefer to do business in email, they can accommodate that. They can provide estimates via a PDF in email.

Justine Olsen

Excellent customer service! Very prompt, communicative and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this service!

Leslie Smith

Came out for moles, walked on raised dirt and we paid $207.00. When we called again (as said they would come out three times) for a possum they said we would have to pay again the $207.00 and an additional $59.00 for each critter caught. Thought that was too much so said forget it.

Rosetta Maranos

Cory was very detail oriented and was also extremely helpful and thorough in sharing his knowledge/expertise.

TJ Barkoukis

The inspection was thorough and professional; excellent service.

Denise Berry

I recently went through the nightmare of the destruction to my home caused by unwanted tenants called raccoons. I contacted critter control and my control specialist was Tom M.. Tom was very knowledgeable, professional and knew exactly how to handle my situation. These raccoons went basically around my home all 4 corners and in the peaks just destroying property after they were caught Tom repaired the damages and i was very impressed that he takes pride in his work not giving some botched up job, he's patient, very friendly, and committed. I would rate him as a 10 for a great employee and for the service i received. Hopefully i never have this problem again but if i do i will call on Tom. Thank you again for your assistance. Sincerly Ms. D. Berry

Alan Woods

Got rid of the critters in my attic. Very professional.

Denise Thomas

Tom was VERY professional and knowledgeable. He made us feel at ease. I highly recommend him.

Ashley Spaustat

We had a woodchuck problem. It was tearing up our yard something fierce! We thought it was a skunk but it turned out to be a woodchuck. Alex helped us daily and set his traps. He was able to catch a possum and a woodchuck. We really enjoyed having Alex's help! He's great! Highly recommend this company.

Robert Olson

Tom M. was professional, courteous and efficient. He was quickly able to determine what was in our attic (bats) and give an itemized, negotiable cost estimate for removing the bats, cleaning up, and sealing the entry points. Looking forward to having a bat-free home!

Linda Gidley

Cory came out to evaluate the noises we were having in our attic. He diagnosed the problem of bats, after getting up there and looking in the attic and also the whole exterior house and roof. He was very knowledgeable about the problem and the steps to correct it. Very professional and not a hard sales pitch.

Terry Matlock

I am extremely impressed with Richard at Critter Control!!! I called critter control because I had what I thought was a gopher in my backyard. Every morning I would see a new mound from that little rascal. I tore up my yard looking for the holes and/or tunnels with very little success. When I did find one I tried killing him with smoke bombs and flushing him out with a water hose, but nothing worked! I Did a lot of research on the web for ideas on how kill gophers and find their holes but it was useless. I continued tearing up my yard looking for holes and tunnels...I was getting very stressed out I didn’t know what to do. I tried a couple other companies but they said they needed special permits or said because city ordinances I would have to take care of it myself or they wouldn’t even call me back. I thought I was all alone on this one and needed to take care of it myself, but I couldn’t. I was becoming more and more stressed out with each new mound. We just had our house built and the sod was freshly laid so you can imagine the stress I was under, I really was almost in tears. I took another chance and called a third company for help and thank God I did!!! I didn’t expect very good results because of horror stories I read about from people having a hard time getting rid of these things. Richard showed up and told me I had pocket gophers. He didn’t seem to have any trouble finding the holes and tunnels under the mounds. He put poison in the holes and said he would check back in two weeks for any new activity. The next day I didn’t see any new mounds. I thought maybe he just scared them and they would start digging again soon. It’s been two weeks and I still haven’t seen any new activity!!! I am so excited!!!! I’m so glad I called these guys…just typing this brings tears to my eyes. If you’re going through what I went through, save yourself the stress and headache and call Critter Control...you won’t be disappointed.

Denis Fitzpatrick

Friendly, professional

Derek Stephenson

On time. Efficient. Very Professional. Willing to work up multiple estimates.

Robin Lindley

Gary and his crew are definitely THE BEST if you have critters! they fixed my barn swallow problem and now we can enjoy our deck! no barn swallow if going to rob me of "deck time." Thanks Critter Control!

Jack Jordan

Fast, professional service. Serviceman was informative and knowledgeable. I will use this service again.

Marsha Behr

Tom was very knowledgeable and professional. He removed two stubborn raccoons from our chimney. We were very happy with his work and thankful that he was able to come to our house on a Saturday.

Douglas Dreessen

These are my go to guys for dealing with outdoor pests. Very knowledgeable and quick to respond to any issue. Highly recommended!

Christopher Wolfe

I asked Kelly about some birds we had in our chimney, she was able to tell us what kind they were (Chimney Swifts) and that they will leave in the winter and then we can cap our chimney so they don't come back. Thanks for the great service and advice!

Leisa Hillman

Was going to use based on reviews but person I spoke to cut me off when I started to ask any questions. I tried to ask 3 questions and got cut off every time. Very curt in responses. When I asked what the process would be for removal she told me she already told me and couldn't give me any more information. They might offer good removal services but based on the initial conversation, I would not use them.

Patrick A Bartmess

Tom had a professional manner, was informative and genuinely wanted to help solve my critter problem.

Cole Boyle

Quick and friendly service. Tom did a great job explaining his inspection and going over our options for remediation and prevention.

Cella Quinn

Alex was on time and he was exceptionally well informed, answering a lot of questions. When he removed the cages, he plugged up the holes, which had been a big concern. We decided that we did not want our raccoons killed and requested that Alex remove the traps and let the animals go. He was polite and understanding--a superb person to work with.

Susi Amendola

So disappointed. Called them to come out for mice. They set traps ( I could have done that) then sealed up the house. $600. Then saw a mouse again two weeks later. Called them and they couldn't get us in for 2 weeks and now will need to pay more to have them do another step. No phone call in between to check on us. No support when needed.

Tim B

Had a mouse problem and gave Critter Control a call. They gave me some advice and a few suggestions and fixed my problems. Highly recommend!

Mark Young

Cory from Critter Control of Omaha came out to our home today. Climbed into both attics, assessed the problem, or in this case lack of a problem, explained to me what I might look at doing in the future to avoid any true problems and was on his. Very courteous and professional. he showed up ready for the worst. Will recommend Critter Control of Omaha to others for sure. Thanks Cory!

Michael Z

these people know what they are doing. form the time of our calling, they were out quickly and took care of the problem quickly. Also very helpful with tips to minimize critter invasion.

A. Sutherland

The service call was 189 then they changed 59 dollars for every animal they trap. The problem was smelled of death animal in my attic. The person said he checked and did not found nothing. He then set up traps out in the roof and cut two squirrels!!! Do you know how many squirrels are in my neighborhood. I told him I could not afford more if after cutting 2 squirrels set up two more traps. My bill was 307 dollars and I still have the smell they didn’t put traps in the attic. Really!!! They want 389 dollars more if I want them to spray to get smell out. Ridiculous why people even Recomend this company. They may be millionaires.

Servando Perales

Very professional

Jeff Lerette

Professional, friendly, honest, punctual.

Justin Limoges

Alex was a great help when we had a raccoon in our chimney. He set traps, checked back daily. Great to work with and good communication.
