I called and spoke to the owner, Pete. While he is booked out for over a year, he gave me helpful information about my poison ivy patch and pointed me to reliable resources. I appreciate his time and expertise!

Pete is awesome! We had an ancient poison ivy vine that had colonized our stone wall and the surrounding area. Before we knew how bad it was for the environment we had tried to kill it with Round Up poison ivy killer and again 4 years later with an organic salt and vinegar mixture, but all of this just seemed to make the plant grow more vigorously. In 2023 Pete came to the rescue. In the early spring before everything bloomed Pete was able to squeeze us in and within 3 hours he and his helper were able to extract the plant from our wall, bag up all the poison ivy, and take it all away. I was amazed how fast they worked! For a plant as old as ours Pete warned us that there would be some regrowth and that he would be back later in the spring. He was right, and just as I was starting to get itchy just looking at the area Pete came back in the early morning on the day he said he would and removed the regrowth and it looked like he had never been there. Pete’s services are not cheap but they are SO SO worth it! Peter is conscientious, communicative, and on time. Highly recommended!

After getting a horrible case of poison ivy from gardening, I was referred to "Pesky Pete." I cannot say enough good things about his service. He has the the most "green" and thorough way to remove poison ivy... ripping it out by the root by hand. He did a tremendous job for us, guarantees his work, and goes above and beyond. No poison, pesticide, or tricks, just someone who actually knows how to take out a problem by the root. Thanks so much, Pete!

The sweetest guy must be poison ivy's worst nightmare. 100% the best. Pete commits to removing every element of our poison ivy. We had a serious problem until Pete arrived. He methodically removed it all and was environmentally friendly too! Our poison ivy professor systematically transformed our yard into a safe place for children, pets and parties. His check-ups keep poison ivy away even when mother nature may not help the cause. We've needed our backyard a lot recently, and Pete has made it our go-to spot for hosting and playing. Thank you!Services: Gardening services

WOW! I don't know where to start. Reached out to Pesky Pete for poison ivy removal as it was overtaking the yard and my mom was constantly getting the rash. Pete showed up, walked the yard and explained his services. Super nice guy and very pleasant, professional and informative. He did a fantastic job and he follows up with site visits to check for re-growth. I am so HAPPY I found him. Thank you Pete!

One of the best companies we have ever worked with on a project for the house and we are so glad we did it. Our yard had a crazy amount of poison ivy so it was a pretty big job.Pete was an absolute professional, easy to work with and get ahold of and a very nice guy. He gave me some pointers on things I can do myself as well because I expressed an interest but his follow up program is designed so you never have to worry about poison ivy again. He comes back several times after the main work is done to get anything that comes back and then you can get on a maintenance plan that is very reasonably priced. I could not believe how fast he got the job done and how thorough the work was. He did a 10 foot plus perimeter around the yard just using hand tools, no chemicals. It's good to not have to worry about it creeping from the woods into the yard anymore.He books pretty far out but it was definitely worth the wait. Could not recommend more highly.

Pesky Pete was extremely helpful in answering all my questions about poison ivy. Very responsive and professional. There aren’t many businesses like his that will remove poison ivy by hand, and he is booked out until next year for estimates!! Highly recommend if you have poison ivy on your property and don’t want to spray roundup.Service: Groundskeeping

Pete does a wonderful job clearing all of the poison ivy from our property. He is happy to come back and get anything that grows in by the end of the season. We have him come every year now to push back the poison ivy and remove anything new that has spread by the birds. His work gives us the peace of mind to enjoy our back yard. That you for the wonderful service you provide!

Wow. I'm pressed! Pete spent a morning last November strenuously rooting-up already defoliated poison ivy from frozen ground. This spring he returned to eradicate just a few remaining sprigs of new growth. The promise of one or more return visits gave me confidence that Pete would achieve the desired result. Well done!

I’ve been blown away by Pete from the beginning. First of all, he is extremely responsive on text messages when scheduling. We’ve used him three times now and he is on time every time.Third, his process is just amazing to watch and he really does get everything down to the roots.And finally, he does come back. Just yesterday he showed up unannounced and walked around the property to all the places he worked previously and picked up a few tiny pieces of new ivy.Can’t recommend Pete highly enough.

Hands down one of the best decisions that we made for our yard. Pete is very professional and has a high attention to detail.
