Picture this: It’s Thursday night, 9:06pm, December 22nd, right before the long Christmas weekend. You are finishing a long day of work in your Flatiron office, alone on your floor, preparing for one more full day of work before the break. Out of the corner of your eye you see a frantic and scary mouse scurrying back and forth on your rug. You scream, and the mouse hides behind the couch.
Who you gonna call?
Fortunately, I called City Express Exterminating. On Friday morning I reached this company, and my paniced plea for help was received calmly by Ron. He assured me that it was possible, even with the holiday weekend, to send help out later that day yes – Friday, December 23!
Richie arrived even earlier than scheduled. He looked over the office surroundings, and professionally and acutely assessed the situation. He explained to me the holes that were allowing for the infestation, and how he was going to stop them. He took extra care to explore any possible openings around the radiator and plugged those as well. We reviewed additional prevention strategies, and agreed that leaving bait boxes were the most that my stomach could handle. He assured me that it was VERY unlikely any more vermin could enter the office, but he would return in a month just to make sure that the holes were still plugged, and the boxes hadn’t been touched.
Did I mention this all took place on Friday, December 23rd, and that every other company had already closed for the holiday?
Living in New York City is a blessing and a curse. The curse is dealing with threats from vermin who don’t take Christmas off. The blessing is having resources like City Express Exterminating. They are a first rate company, providing professional, thorough, responsible, and efficient services. I thank Richie and this company for helping me get through the end of the year with my nerves in tact, my business thriving, and with the knowledge that I am well prepared for any rodential challenges in 2017.
