    Wednesday 24 September 2025 - A technician from Mr ******************************************** was hired to remove 2 bird nests from two bathroom exhaust vents & a wasp nest. The wasp nest was treated no problem. When it came time to remove the bird nests from the venting, I was told there wasnt a nest in one of them. The vent that the tech spent time on is very long, approx 10 from the outside wall. The tech didnt have the tools/equipment to do and complete the job he was hired to do. The only tool that he had was a grabber reacher tool (approx 36) that didnt take out a lot of the bird nesting material. He struggled with this for a while and mentioned that he cant reach anything at the back by the nest, but continued to try. After a while I called the Mr ********************** Control & mentioned that I wasnt 100% satisfied because the tech couldnt remove the bird nest. That person said shed talk to the tech on a pricing. They charged me full price 250$ for the job that was supposed to be done. I received an invoice for the total $665.57. 199$ (wasp nest removal) + 140$ (70$ x2 - vent replacement/labour) +250$ (bird nest removal)+76.57$ (taxes)I didnt pay it. Ive been in touch with the company. The 250$ charge was reduced to 95$ - for cleaning and sanitation of the second floor, the tech only did a garbage pick up at the end which should be included in the labour. Im still not 100% satisfied with job that they were hired to do which is remove the bird nest. *** didnt remove the nest. There shouldnt be charged the even 95$ for something that wasn't completed. It would be good business if Mr ********************** Control honoured their 100% satisfaction guaranteed policy. Since Mr ********************** Control cannot remove the nest, the only thing that would provide me 100% satisfaction guaranteed is to remove the 95$ charge from the bill so I can put it towards paying someone who can remove the bird nests. I also like a detailed invoice showing what each charge is specifically for.

    As per our notes:

    The client was extremely nervous& pushy and assuming things will the technician was still undergoing his inspection and trying to reach results. The inspection resulted in us removing wasp nest but unable to remove or find a bird nest. For this reason s, the client invoice was amended and bird nest removal has been removed from her invoice. The technician did not feel comfortable working on site due to the amount of distribution he had to endure while on the ladder, still doing his inspection.

    Thank you

    I called Mr ********************** control regarding a suspected rodent problem at our house. Their website states free estimate. Over the phone they explained that someone will have to come and inspect the situation, which they did. 3 days later, I received the estimate for the job to be done and an invoice for $95 for the "inspection", a fee I was surprised to see since no one mentioned that, neither over the phone or at the time of the inspection. No contract or service agreement was signed, presented or shared with to me. Another disappointing service fact is that on the invoice, they said: "On August ******: I completed the inspection and found entry point for rodent , we have to be digging." Respectfully, I was the one who found that entry point before they even arrive on site and showed it to them.Since I declined to pay the $95 fee for the deceptive free estimate they promote on their website, they are trying to push me to pay, threatening with a reporting to the credit bureau.I have file a complaint to Consumer Protection Ontario and seeking your advise on the matter.Thank you
