Delaware’s Top Rated Local® Pest Control Companies Award Winner: Wilkins Wildlife & BedBug 911

Top Rated Local® is pleased to announce that Wilkins Wildlife & BedBug 911 is a two-time 2019 award winner in Delaware!

Whether you have mice or bed bugs, there’s one pest control company in Delmar that stands above the rest — Wilkins Wildlife & BedBug 911.

Wilkins Wildlife & BedBug 911 has received dozens of reviews on three verified sites with a perfect average rating of 5.00 stars, earning them a spectacular Rating Score™ of 96.00 and two 2019 Top Rated Local awards for ranking among the top 100 businesses and the top 10 pest control companies in all of Delaware!

Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:

“I didn’t shop around; I didn’t get quotes. There was no need to. If you call the right person the first time, there is no need to shop around. I had a crawl space with moisture/humidity issues and a few unwanted guests. Jay and [his] crew removed all the old (and sparse) vapor barrier, treated the wood, installed new vapor barrier throughout, installed a dehumidifier and did a final check for any critters or critter access. After the first day, the crawl space humidity was brought to below 50 percent and is maintained. I can also monitor conditions from the wireless sensors in the comfort of my living room. Thanks, Jay.” – Don K.

Not Your Average Pest Control Company

We wanted to learn what makes this award-winning pest control company tick, so we took a few minutes to talk with the owner of Wilkins Wildlife & BedBug 911, Jay Wilkins.

The first thing we wanted to know was what it is that sets Wilkins Wildlife & BedBug 911 apart from their competition in Delaware. Here’s Jay’s response:

“We aren’t just a traditional pest control company. We are the guys you call if you have wildlife problems, that is, pests that have vertebrae. We are also 100-percent green with the products we use — there’s no chance of prolonged exposure to any pesticides. A lot of times when people call, it is an emergency situation, so we focus on getting to jobs quickly. Not only do we have the knowledge and expertise to control these animals, but we also have to know the biology of each pest as well. Not only do we remove the animal, we repair the structure that they were in and then protect the area — known as exclusion — to make sure that future pests cannot access the area again. We don’t dabble; we specialize! We get into the minds of the animals and pests that we eradicate and do the job exactly how it needs to be done so that there aren’t future pests.”

Jay went on to say:

“Why pay for control, when you can pay for elimination?”

We also wanted to know what Jay’s mission is at Wilkins Wildlife & BedBug 911 and why he does what he does. Here’s what he had to say:

“I was told that I was crazy and it would never work! I wanted to prove to people that I could create a business and perfect a professional craft.”

Building Success by Getting Results

Jay attributes Wilkins Wildlife & BedBug 911’s strong online reputation to their commitment to doing whatever it takes to ensure that their clients get results:

“There’s a formula with it. We get our clients results, and we do whatever it takes to get those results. We don’t care if we have to shell out a dime or two to get the job done. We go above and beyond and let our customers know that, if they cannot give us a five-star review, then we expect a phone call so that we can make sure they’re 100-percent satisfied! There is nothing I want to protect more than my company’s reputation.”

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, Wilkins Wildlife & BedBug 911 has grown mostly thanks to referrals:

“Our referral basis is absolutely huge. We have affiliations with other pest control companies, specifically those who don’t specialize in wildlife control. We keep those companies and relationships strong. It is mutually beneficial!”

Jay clearly knows a thing or two about growing a business and building an online reputation. Here’s his advice for the many other business owners out there:

“Make sure you love what you do. If you don’t love what you do, it will feel too much like a job.”


Congratulations to the team at Wilkins Wildlife & BedBug 911 for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Jay, for taking the time to speak with us!
