Report
I had a serious pigeon problem on my house. I had tried another pest control contractor, but he was unable to get rid of the birds. That's when I engaged Darcy, and he was able to explain to me the plan he was going to use, and assured me that he could fix the problem. During the process Darcy would keep me up to date with what was happening, and the success of the plan he was using. All of the birds have now been moved on. Thank you Darcy for doing a great job.

Had a pigeon issue and nothing worked for us -- loud noises, fake owls etc.. Took a gamble on Darcy and AFPP's traps and bang, two months later problem 100% solved. Darcy's team was professional, discrete and did exactly what they said they'd do. Great job.
