The Bad
- No Wildlife Control
- No Contract, Pricing, or Guarantee Details
No Wildlife Control
While Bloom Pest Control does treat for rodents like mice and rats, it does not provide wildlife exclusion services for animals like birds, bats, and squirrels.
No Contract, Pricing, or Guarantee Details
Bloom promises not to lock customers into long-term contracts, but it is unclear if the treatment plan model involves short-term contracts. Along the same lines, there is no pricing information available on the company website.
Many pest control companies offer guarantees, essentially promising to perform free re-treatments in between scheduled treatments. This gives customers peace of mind. Bloom says it offers guarantees for only certain pests but cannot offer guarantees for others.
The Bottom Line
If you’re seeking pest control in the Portland or Vancouver areas, Bloom Pest Control is a good company to look into. Bloom offers eco-friendly options for pest control and also crawl space services. But you’ll need to contact the company directly for pricing information and to see if the pests in your home are covered under the guarantee program.
Regardless, you can call in for free phone advice regarding pests and crawl spaces, even if you’re not a customer.
