Comparative Summary

Maintaining customer satisfaction is a crucial aspect of any business, but it’s even more important for attic and crawl space cleaning companies that have earned the prestigious Diamond Certified award. For Mighty Men Services, LLC, the key to keeping clients happy is simple: utilize its wide-ranging expertise to solve their problems as quickly and efficiently as possible. “Our number one goal has always been to get our customers back to their normal lifestyles,” affirms owner Maria Talacona. “By responding quickly to their needs and following up to confirm that everything was done correctly, we’re able to ensure they have great experiences.”

Mighty Men Services has been cleaning attics and crawl spaces; removing insulation; and providing pest and rodent control services for residential and commercial clients in San Francisco, Alameda, Contra Costa, Solano, and Napa Counties since 2018. The company has the in-house capabilities to treat for everything from fleas and bed bugs to mice and rats, and its “Good Mother Program” is designed to humanely remove animals and their offspring from properties without separating them.

Unlike less experienced attic and crawl space cleaning companies that offer their customers the same set of treatments in an effort to maximize their workload volume, Mighty Men Services understands that each job is unique and plans its treatments accordingly. “By getting to know our clients and the nuances of their properties, we can determine exactly what they need,” says Ms. Talacona. “We’re a family-run business, so we don’t have to stick to the traditional way of doing things. If something different makes sense for a particular home, we’ll do it.”

Another distinguishing feature of Mighty Men Services is its dedication to educating its customers about their attic and crawl space issues so they can identify warning signs and avoid similar situations from reoccurring. “If a client has an ongoing problem, we’ll look for a specialty solution or talk about behavioral changes they can make,” explains Ms. Talacona. “Ultimately, it’s easier to stop animals from entering a home than dealing with them once they’re already on the property, and education is the best way to accomplish that.”

Industry Info

Instead of getting a one-time attic or crawl space cleaning, make sure your contractor knows how to keep pests from returning.

After an insect or animal infestation, getting your attic or crawl space clean is an important step. The pests may be gone, but urine and feces, scent trails, nests, and diseased materials can still threaten your health and the cleanliness of your home. Measures like removing and replacing insulation and all other contaminated materials, removing all traces of scents, and sanitizing surfaces are vital.

But reinfestation can leave your attic or crawl space dirty again, undoing all of your contractor’s hard work. “The biggest cost to homeowners is sanitation and damage repair,” says Maria Talacona, owner of Mighty Men Services, LLC in Benicia. “If access points aren’t sealed correctly, pests can still get in and cause more damage. That’s why it’s important to hire a contractor who will make sure the job gets done correctly the first time.”

According to Ms. Talacona, not every attic and crawl space cleaning company follows the same protocols. “A lot of contractors simply block entrances from the outside since that’s easiest for them, but that may not be good enough,” she says. “Most extensive rodent activity requires repairs inside the walls and cement work to stop the tunneling. Ask your contractor how their plan will prevent pests from regaining entry through old or new access points. If they can’t guarantee it will work, get a second opinion.”

Once the work is done, take a proactive approach to keeping out pests. “It’s much better to focus on prevention,” says Ms. Talacona. “You’ll probably always have to treat for bugs, but you can make sure raccoons and other animals can’t access your home by doing basic maintenance in your attic and crawl space.” Your contractor can also help you troubleshoot, especially if you’re having recurring problems or there are large wildlife or pest populations in your area. Fences, barriers, inspections, and regularly checked traps can make your property less welcoming to animals and pests, which will save you the expense of having your attic or crawl space repeatedly cleaned.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How soon can you get to my house?

A: We can usually help you within two or three days of your initial call, depending on the type of work and our current schedule.

Q: How much will it cost to complete my job?

A: Pricing varies depending on the size of the area and scope of the work. For example, if we’re spraying for insects, we’ll give you an estimated price based on the square footage of your home and the type of pest. But if you have a larger problem like raccoons in your attic, there are many variables to consider when it comes to pricing. Are your air ducts damaged? Do we need to clean up insulation? Are there droppings everywhere? How will we access the space? If we have those types of questions about your job, we’ll need to do an inspection before any work begins.

Q: Do you charge for inspections?

A: Yes, but our inspections are very thorough and detailed so it ends up being a good value. We’ll put on our Tyvek suits and masks, go into your attic or crawl space, and take photos and videos so you can see what’s actually going on. That way, everyone has the best information to move forward with a treatment plan.

Q: Do you offer humane pest control services?

A: Yes, we emphasize humane pest control by focusing on prevention rather than termination. For example, we perform ‘good mother evictions,’ which allows mother animals to remove their babies from attics and crawl spaces so they don’t get separated. Our predatorial treatments and cage trapping practices are also humane.

Q: How do you seal pest access points?

A: Many companies seal from the exterior of the home, but in our experience, that’s not the best way to solve an ongoing rodent problem. Broken vents can be sealed from the outside, but most extensive rodent activity requires repairs inside the walls and cement work to stop the tunneling, and that needs to be done from the inside. It may not be the fastest and easiest way to do the work, but it’s the most effective. Your biggest cost would be sanitation and damage repair, so you need to seal the access points correctly to prevent pests from getting back in.

Q: Do your technicians follow COVID-19 safety precautions?

A: Absolutely. We always wear the proper PPE when we’re on the jobsite so everyone feels safe.

Bianca Clark: A Mighty Opportunity

By James Florence, Diamond Certified Resource Reporter

BENICIA — With a professional background in the wine and hospitality industries, one might wonder how Bianca Clark ended up working at a pest control company. It all stemmed from a family connection. “Growing up, I had family members in the pest control industry, so I’ve always been around it,” she explains. “I worked in the hospitality and wine industries in the Napa Valley for about 15 years. In 2018, my mom started Mighty Men Services. I was getting tired of working long hours and weekends, so it piqued my interest. A couple of years later, the COVID-19 pandemic hit and I was laid off from my job. It was a perfect opportunity to see what my mom was up to in her business. I found that she had a really amazing company, but I also saw that running things was becoming a lot for her. So, since I had managerial experience, I offered to come in and help her run the business, and I’ve been here ever since.”

Today, as operations manager of Mighty Men Services, LLC, Bianca says her favorite part of her job is interacting with and educating customers. “When customers call us, they’re often pretty frantic, so it’s very rewarding to help them and put their minds at ease by assuring them we’ll take care of everything. I also enjoy educating customers on the process and particulars of how we’re going to resolve their pest issues.”

A resident of Vallejo, Bianca spends her time outside of work on a variety of pastimes. “I’m a nature bug, so I like hiking. Having worked in the Napa wine industry, I’m also a bit of a foodie and I love trying new restaurants.” Additionally, Bianca stays involved at her local church by volunteering with the youth group. “Young people are our future, so I’m very passionate about mentoring them and helping them make the right choices.”

In regard to her professional career, Bianca explains how a calm demeanor and charitable spirit go a long way toward instilling trust. “As I mentioned, a lot of people call us in a very frantic state. They’re scared or freaking out because they found rat droppings in their bed or something. In these situations, I feel like it’s really important to have a charitable spirit and just walk them through the situation. The conversations we have with customers are totally different, but the way we handle things is pretty much the same—we just try to be personable and make them feel comfortable. I’ve had a lot of people tell me, ‘When I called, I was so upset, but the calmness in your voice put me at ease.’ So, you kind of have to play that role and win the customer’s trust.”

When asked the first thing she’d do if she were to retire tomorrow, Bianca says she’d see the world. “I love to travel, so if I could just tour a bunch of different countries, that would be gold for me.” Her first destination? “Probably Europe. I would definitely go to Paris to enjoy the amazing cuisine.”

Ask Me Anything!

Q: What was your first job?
A: When I was 11, I got a job filing paperwork at a Century 21 real estate office.

Q: What’s your favorite local restaurant?
A: Bella Siena in downtown Benicia.

Q: What’s your favorite thing to do on a rainy day?
A: Relax on the couch and watch a movie.

Q: Do you collect anything?
A: I collect candles, handbags and jackets.

Q: How do you like your eggs?
A: Over medium.

  • Hiring a Rodent Exclusion Company

    BENICIA — When hiring a rodent exclusion company, there are things to look for and things to look out for—that is, signs that a company may not be a good choice to hire. One big red flag is if the company says it can solve your rodent problem within a single day of work.

    In reality, rodent exclusion isn’t a one-and-done deal—it takes weeks of subsequent monitoring to ensure they don’t return. Even if the company does a good job cleaning and repairing your attic and crawl space, if rodents return, they’ll wreck the newly completed work and you’ll be left with the same problem that you started with.

    This is why it’s important to hire a rodent exclusion company that will not only clean, sanitize, repair, and reinsulate your attic and crawl space, but follow up with monitoring as well. This should take place over the course of several weeks to ensure the rodents don’t return. That way, you won’t have to pay more money to redo what was already done.

  • Video: Tip For Hiring a Rodent Exclusion Company

    Complete Video Transcription

    BENICIA — Bianca Clark: I’m Bianca Clark, one of the owners here at Mighty Men Pest Control. My expert tip for you is when you come across companies that offer a service, that they are going to sanitize clean out your full entire attic and crawlspace, do the repairs take out your insulation and put it all back in, in one day, don’t do it. And the reason why I say that that’s not a good idea is because it doesn’t take a short time for rodents to come in and do the damage that they do. It happens on a long period basis. Rodents are still present, and now you have this beautiful installation that you’ve installed. And now it’s all contaminated again.

    Sealing everything, cleaning out everything and removing your installation with the follow-ups of monitoring the repairs that have been done over a month period of time, really ensures the work that was done and the quality of what you’re paying for in the long run. Please remember this information as you reach out to your local companies to help you with this problem.
