Excellent service!We recently discovered a squirrel in our attic. Shortly afterward, two more squirrels chewed through metal wire and got into our chimney. One of them eventually fell into the space above our original (1911), non-functioning coal-burning fireplace.Pest in the City was extremely thorough in inspecting the attic to ensure the squirrel had vacated and in searching for possible entry points. The technician assured us the attic was empty and sealed the only likely access hole.We were shocked when, a few days later, we heard a squirrel inside the fireplace after a chimney sweep from another company had re-blocked access from the chimney. In a panic, we called Pest in the City late in the evening (they take calls until 9:30 pm!). The technician gave us advice that proved to be excellent — although not what we wanted to hear at the time — and arranged to come out the next day.He confirmed there was a squirrel above the fireplace and again recommended a humane, no-harm approach: allowing the squirrel the opportunity to leave on its own. His calm professionalism, knowledge, and commitment to humane treatment were greatly appreciated during a stressful situation.Highly recommended.
