We've been having problems with spiders and spider mites in the bushes. Called Bulwark for additional services outside the typical schedule, and, as always, they showed their next available slot. The tech, Dikembe T., was excellent and went above and beyond. He took care of everything: cleaned off webs; sprayed and…
Thx Terrail.
We have been using Bulwark for over a year now and are always very happy with the services we receive. We do quarterly treatments and we can always request additional treatments as needed. Mark is especially thorough!
Dikembe Torain was extremely knowledgeable and explained everything he did for my home.
Antoine is amazing! He’s come out to my house regularly but most recently when I called for a same day Saturday appointment to address a yellow jacket nest at the front porch. He has gone above and beyond in his work and is always so kind.
Mark did a great job. He explained what he did for us and we talked about pests generally. We are almost always pest free and when we do rarely have an issue, Bulwark steps up.
We have been using Bulwark for 8 years and have been extremely pleased with their service. Antoine just finished our regular treatment and was as professional as could be! It was late Friday afternoon on a very hot day, but he didn’t cut any corners and ensured that our house was all ready. He was a standout…
Terrail Simpson is our assigned Bulwark employee for quarterly pest control around our home. We have had recent wasp invasions, and have asked Bulwark to address this problem. Terrail is so thorough with his service, and pays attention to our special requests. I highly recommend Terrail and Bulwark for any exterminating service.
They came out super fast and did a great job treating our home inside and out! Our tech Timothy C thoroughly checked the house and even found some wasp nests that I didn’t see and removed them. He was also super kind to my daughter and I. Before he left he made sure to remind us of their guarantee, let me know he…
Mark was our technician and he did a thorough and professional job. He was proactive and helpful and we’re very pleased. He is a credit to your organization.
Michael White did a great job on a routine visit. Was warm and present in communication. I asked about removing potential wasp nests on the second floor gutters. He did it without hesitation, knocked them right down!
The technician was Mikey and he removed a wasp nest and treated our kitchen area for bugs. He was very polite, listened to my concerns, and checked for other nests.
After much frustration and a couple of wasp stings, Joshua Tamarit from Bulwark came out to service my home. He assured me he would get to the bottom of my problem....and he did! He took his time inspecting around my deck, shed and carport, and found what 2 other techs couldn't. THANKS JOSHUA. You retained a now very happy customer .
We have been using Bulwark for the past few years and the entire team is excellent. We just recently moved and started our quarterly service again. Glenn Harris showed up perfectly on time, gave us 20 minutes notice which was greatly appreciated. When he arrived, he did a thorough inspection of the house and…
Timothy did an excellent job taking care of the wasps around my home! He was thorough and professional, spraying in all the right areas. I appreciate the extra care he took and the offer to come back if needed. Highly recommend
We had a great experience with Chris N! We were dealing with both roaches & bees getting into our house. Chris was professional, knowledgeable & thorough during the treatment. We noticed results almost immediately & within two weeks the problems were completely gone! He took the time to explain everything and made…
It's a pleasure to communicate with a worker who is so efficient and loves their job such as Kassie Kirks .
My tech Glenn always sends a text when he is on his way and then provides helpful details about the visit. Bugs and other critters are under control and appreciate the excellent service!
Glenn Harris is incredibly knowledgeable and we are so grateful for his service. We inherited the house in Carrboro, but still live in Texas. Bulwarks takes care of our home in Texas, and now Glenn is making sure our home doesnt become infested when the house sits vacant for months at a time. Living in Texas, we…
Great experience with Glenn at Bulwark. Glenn was right on time and very professional, and dealt with some wasps that were bothering us. He treated the whole house and was a joy to have over. Highly recommended. Thanks Glenn!
Eric B always does a wonderful job with reviewing the outside of our home for pest homes including ants, wasps, and yellowjackets. 2 years in and we are still so happy with his work and diligence and helpfulness.
In every visit, Bulwark team do a very nice job controlling pests inside and outside the house. Thank you @ Gene Banner
Timothy Chasteen is professional and at the same time very nice. He asked me each time about my concerns and made sure to acknowledge. Each time he came he looked around the house for additional needs. Bulwark itself has been excellent in customer service with immediate response.
We appreciate that Cory texted with his arrival time this morning. He is a friendly and personable Bulwark Co employee with extensive knowledge of pest control. Cory did an outside pest extermination and a perimeter treatment at our property. We were very pleased with his efficient visit and a chance to speak…
Elizabeth and Kassie are very thorough and found issues my prior pest missed. I usually don't write reviews but when someone does a phenomenal job they should be recognized.
Donald Dioguardo came and did our regular pest control this week. He did an amazing job as always. I love that he takes pictures and lets me know everything he did while taking our time. He pointed out a wasp nest on my front porch that I had no idea about. Thanks again Donald, your a rock star.
An excellent job was done by my technician, Randall Pena, today. I am very pleased as usual.
We just had Drew Forsyth from Bulwark Exterminating at our home, and I couldn’t be happier with the service! Drew was friendly, professional, and took the time to explain everything he was doing to make sure our home is protected, especially for our kids this summer. He went above and beyond to ensure every corner…
Shout out to Glenn Harris! Thank you! Glenn was courteous and explained about the wasps he found. He also kindly did not mind my 2 dogs that barked incessantly at him .. thank you Glenn!! & Bulwark Exterminating. I'm new to the area and thankful for the amazing customer service I've received from Bulwark. Thank you
Bulwark has excellent customer service and Glenn Harris. Our service tech was very thorough.
Mikey (like the teenage mutant turtles Mikey). Was super polite and super thorough. Bulwark always goes above and beyond to satisfy customers. Well trained in customer service and always willing to go the extra mile. Great job Mikey and thank you.
Jesse did a great job at our home today . Tom Ruane
Randall P went above and beyond to protect our home from pests.
Donald did a great job with my very first pest control service appointment. I'm a new homeowner and he was patient, friendly and helpful. Bulwark came recommended by a friend that uses them. We will see how the bug control works out, but service wise I'm very pleased.
Jackson came by today to help with a large ant hill in our backyard and a wasp nest. He was very professional and did a great job of taking care of everything on our list. He made sure there was nothing else we needed at the end.
Bulwark is the best I have used. Donald Dioguardo was my guy this time and like all others, he was cordial, told me what they were doing and even sent me text when done. Great company to do business with.
Tim Chasteen ( Elizabeth is the other one ) is one of my go to guys with Bulwark. Anything that needs attention, he is on it. Came by this week for a retreat due to excessive spider webbing and mosquitos this summer. I would recommend asking for Tim to be your regular service tech.
Words can't even begin to express how amazing Mark Williamson was last week when he serviced my house. He was a pleasure. His attention to detail was amazing. He treated our house as if it was his own. I look forward to his next visit. Bulwark is lucky to have him as an employee.
Eric B showed up to help us get rid of a mud dauber nest under our patio. He was on time, professional and explained everything that he was doing. He took care of the nest and treated the area! We were able to chat as he took care of our home. We really appreciate his friendliness, service and professionalism.
Above and Beyond is the best description I could give them! Danny is in training and he seemed very comfortable and very excited to be doing bug extermination. Elizabeth was very kind, and very personable! They had to remove nests for both Carpenter Bees and Wasps. They both were very eager to get rid of the nests,…
Daryle Gee is the best! Highly recommend Bulwark. We get the mosquito treatment as well as general house treatment to make sure no unwanted guests take up residence. Daryle noticed ground bees before we did and took care of them, I have a little one who is terrified of getting stung so having that taken care of…
Let’s just say the professional service I received today from technician Dakota Hollars was just amazing. He was very informed and made sure all my concerns were addressed. It’s hard to get such professional service now a day that this technician showed.
I've been with Bulwark for a few years now and they've always been polite, professional, and just overall friendly to deal with.
Receptionist was friendly was able to get me an appointment the same day. The technician, Michael Fisher, was on time and friendly. I appreciate the professionalism and promptness.
We've been using Bulwark for over a year now, and are very happy with the service provided. Erik Mancini always has been a pleasure to work with. Highly recommended
Darryle Gee did an amazing job in our home and outside. He found 3 wasp nests and took them out as we were having wasp issues as well. He did a very thorough job applying the bug spray outside and even took out the cobwebs. I would highly recommend him to come to your house for extermination services. Very…
Tyler C was awesome!!! Bulwark super very responsive an Tyler an expert
Timothy Chasteen has come out to our house 2 times so far and he is by far the most thorough technician! Tim is completely kind, professional, knowledgeable, and THOROUGH!!! Thank you, Tim!!!!
Moved to this company from another and it is like night and day. They are always on time, go above and beyond, and are very knowledgeable, not just a guy with some chemicals but explained common pest issues.. Our first visit everything they did was explained and made us feel better about our service. Timothy C is…
Thomas did a great job of explaining the treatments he applied. He also had some useful tips for pest control. I would highly recommend this company.
I've been using Bulwark for several years now, and I've continually been happy with their service. I'm on a quarterly preventative treatment plan and, in addition to the regular treatments, they've also come out on several occasions to deal with pests that have shown up outside the house (such as yellowjackets).…
Josh Ungar was our service technician and he was wonderful. Polite, friendly, efficient, on time (came within 15 minutes of the start of our 3 hour appointment window-unheard of!) and did a great job! I would recommend Bulwark to anyone!
I was reluctant at first but decided to give Bulwark a try. The service was performed by Darryle in a professional manner. Darryle contacted me with the estimated arrival time and immediately introduced himself and explained his service steps. The job was completed in a timely fashion and I was reassured of the…
Orlando Council was excellent
Are used to work at my previous home and was pleased with their service then. I was just this please this time in my new home. Thomas was on time, professional, polite, and courteous. He explained things very clearly. Follow-up visit: Tellas did a wonderful job! We are so pleased with this company.
We found snake skin in the crawl and put in a service request. The crawl is low with low visibility and would have to crawl to get to the problem area. They sent the technician Elizabeth Golder who pulled it out and treated the crawl with snake away. She is very professional and promptly took care of the issue. Thanks Elizabeth and Bulwark!
Orlando at Bulwark Exterminating always does a wonderful job at our facility. He's been accommodating and flexible with service times and is always incredibly friendly. We usually have a lot of bees and other insects flying around, but when Bulwark stops by, we don't have to worry about anything bug-ging our customers!
I have been with Bulwark almost a year. Exceptional company. Josh Ungar is an absolute amazing technician. Even when I first met him, very professional, friendly, takes great great pride in what he does and it shows. At this point, he is the ONLY one I want to take care of all my pest control issues. I would highly…
I've been using Bulwark since 2014. They have been great. I live near a lake in the woods. So I have significant bug issues. They worked diligently to get it under control. I'm sure almost every field employee they have has ended up coming to my house at some point. Matt Welsh is by far the best they have. He…
I highly recommend Bulwark pest control. They are extremely responsive and attentive to your requests. Matt Welsh went above and beyond the call of duty and not only treated for yellow jackets but also dug up and removed the entire nest to ensure the problem was solved! Thank you, Matt
