"Showed up on time and completed the work. I will say the salesperson said they could treat the outside "rain or shine' which sounded odd to me, and the tech said they could not treat the outside due to snow. Were not worried about it, but a pretty simple job for them to treat only the inside at a 1st visit cost. We will see how they do for the year of the contract."

"Moved into a new house, discovered some evidence of mice. Schopen came to the rescue! Setting an appointment was easy, the tech arrived on time, was friendly. He did a visual inspection inside and outside of the house and patched possible entrances around the foundation. He set traps and bait stations and then came back for a maintenance check. No major evidence of intrusion--the holes they filled outside worked! I am keeping them on for maintenance and adding a spider and bugs b/c they give a single fee for maintenance on both--which is a great deal. They also have an account portal on their website so clients can track spending, notes, and appointments. One national brand came and tried to upsell me--saying that I needed them to install a barrier around my house because of some issue with my siding ($2000!) and the cost of their annual service was double Schopen. I highly recommend skipping the big-name brands and going with this family-owned business."

"The south side location of Rose Pest Control that was handled by the Indiana Team, initially started smooth and approaching 2 years of service for me. During COVID period there was a change in staff and management. From there, Poor follow up - No Calls, and poor service where only partial work was done(No Signature confirming work was done), but the the Indiana (Franklin) Rose Pest Control Team expected full payment(to which I stopped the auto deduction the payments) for the subpar, partial work that they did not complete. Despite my several attempts in contacting them to complete the unfinished job). After my frustration with them died down, I attempted to resolve the matter and made several calls(unanswered). I then received a bill for what was claimed as service rendered but the service was not complete. I never received a followed up despite my attempts to reach out to address the matter. The Indiana staff didn't care to assist or nor bother understand my issue. You "had" a Long Term Customer but poor management blew the opportunity"

FAQs for small animal pest control service projects in Joliet, IL
Common signs of fox activity include sightings at dawn or dusk, distinctive musky odors, small paw prints with four toes and visible claw marks, scattered garbage, damage to gardens or small livestock, fox droppings that resemble small dog waste but contain fur or seeds, and high-pitched barking or screaming sounds at night. If you notice several of these indicators, you likely have foxes visiting or living on your property.
While foxes avoid human contact, they can pose risks in certain situations. Healthy foxes rarely attack people but may become defensive if cornered or protecting their young. Small pets like cats, rabbits, and guinea pigs may be vulnerable to fox predation.
The primary concern with foxes is disease transmission, including rabies and parasites like mange. Professional assessment can determine whether foxes on your property present genuine safety concerns.
Wildlife regulations vary significantly between states and even counties. Many jurisdictions require special permits for trapping and relocating foxes, while others prohibit relocation entirely due to disease concerns.
Professional wildlife removal specialists often maintain all necessary permits as part of their services. Before attempting any fox removal yourself, check with your state's wildlife agency about specific requirements in your area.
The timeline for fox removal varies depending on several factors, including the number of animals, their wariness around traps, weather conditions, and whether young are present. Professional wildlife specialists will continue monitoring and trapping until they're confident all foxes have been removed from your property, ensuring a complete solution to your wildlife problem.
Yes, you can prevent foxes from returning with proper preventative measures. Effective strategies include removing food sources by securing garbage and pet food, eliminating potential den sites by screening off areas under decks and outbuildings, maintaining fences with underground extensions to prevent digging, and using deterrents like motion-activated lights or sprinklers. A comprehensive approach that addresses both attractants and access points provides the best long-term protection against fox problems.
