Barrier has always been very respectful of me and our property. They do a great job of keeping the pests away. I love that they clean all the spider webs under our eves. All the people that have come to our property have been very friendly and ask if we are noticing any issues and then take care of the issue. THANK YOU!!! Barrier Pest.

Before Barrier, three times a year we suffered from unwanted visits from ants. With four visits a year from Barrier the ants have disappeared. We're keeping Barrier. Brandon took the time to update us on all the available services, such as how to prevent tree sap. We will be taking advantage of that one for sure.

We used to have another pest control company for a number of years, but they were bought out by Orkin. We liked having a smaller, local, more-in-touch company to work with, so we went with Barrier Pest Control. This was a great move, as Barrier was tested right away with rats. With Barrier, the rats were gone have…
