"When I phoned I was told the fee would be $399 ($400) to come out on a weekend evening. I was told it would be $200 during a weekday. I agreed to the $400 fee, and Martin Salinas came out about 9:30 pm that evening. My attic is separated into two sections. He put his trap in the high attic with a can of sardines, and my trap with a can of sardines in the lower one, or second floor level. He said to call him if I heard anything. The raccoon had come into the lower attic by pulling the dryer vent cap off and pushing the dryer vent out of the way. Mr. Salinas told me raccoons had been nesting in the lower attic as evidenced by the matted down insulation. Lie number one: it was matted down from being in there 20+ years. In the higher attic I was told I had rats as feces were found. Lie number two. I had one or more at some point, but not recently since I discovered the feces were powdered when I rubbed it between my fingers. I was told the firm could put new insulation in. He said the calculation was taking half the square footage of the house and any contractor that said different was lying. Lie number three. Every attic is different. Also you have to take into account heating and air units in the attic. You aren't putting insulation over those, and in some cases certain light fixtures have to be void of insulation. So attics are physically measured. I am attaching the insulation bid cost which is outrageously expensive if you compare it to other firms. when I stated the cost was too high at $6249; I was told it could be done for $5132. I recently had my roof redone with insulation underneath, so I'm really not too concerned about further insulation at this point. I mentioned I needed my back shed torn down and a concrete slab poured in preparation for a new one, and was told that was a service the firm also provided. (Wow. Talk about jack-of-all-trades!) Mr. Salinas came by on Monday to check the traps, and I kept the dryer going to prevent the raccoon from going back into the attic. He had another employee drill a screw through the attic cap to keep it from being opened again. He collected $75 from me and said he'd be in touch. If I had rats or any other creature in the attics; the sardines would have been gobbled up. Nothing. I texted him asking when he would collect his trap from the high attic. I never heard from him again. As a senior, I did not relish trying to get the ungainly trap down the attic stairs. I placed an old towel over the dried up sardine can in the trap, slid the trap into a large garbage bag so I could drop it from the attic stair to the floor below. So I do not recommend this firm. He was hoping as a senior I would panic and not research attic insulation cost, and believe I had rats or mice. I also had to call, and pay, someone to readjust the attic vent. Mr. Salinas should have taken care of that as part of the service."
