Guy didn't like the estimate so he went away...found a real good deal from a guy in West Virginia that filled it full of foam for him....not my kind of customer.

I get a ton of requests from that area through my website, but don't go quite that far. My upper service edge runs from Quincy-Macomb-Peoria-Bloomington-Champaign. I'd like to provide your contact info when I get bat calls from up that direction. Hard to find anyone who actually SOLVES bat problems up there. Plenty of guys who will take the "bat in the house" calls, but nobody follows up with proper inspection/exclusion work. Ron Scheller
