Good man. Easy to work with and conscientious.
I was very satisfied with the exterminator today he he went inside under the cabinets moved. Some of the furniture went outside and he took like a mop went all up and down through stuff down. I never been so pleased. Very well-manned and polite
We’ve had a contract with Eco Pest for approximately 3 years with no complaints and fantastic services. The price is completely reasonable and they actually fulfill their contract 😲 which is a nice change nowadays. The best part is that we’ve had the same service person, William, all this time too! It’s rare gift…
Great service. Their products seem to work and the representative that treats our home is always polite and professional.

Always a great experience with Wesley from Eco Pest. Highly knowledgable and efficient.
Matthew is always fantastic and knowledgeable, prompt and courteous. Thanks!!
I continuously have great experiences with this company when it comes to maintaining a pest-free environment. Brian was our new technician today and was just as great as the last!
Brian is very personable, responsible and attentive to needs of the home. Addressed issues we were aware of and others we weren’t. It’s very refreshing these days to have a technician come by who actually talks to you without having to pull teeth for helpful information.
Exceptional service, Brian is the best! Very quick response, took care of absolutely everything going on in our house and around it. He came to check on our house after two weeks of us having treatment to do a follow up service. So awesome, really appreciate the peace of mind!

Love my service with Eco-pest! I’ve been with a eco-pest for 5 years and never have insect issues. I’ve the years, I’ve built a trusting relationship with my tech. Last time I had service and my regular tech wasn’t there. I was so bummed because I’ve grown to know my tech. Of course the service was still great, but…
Josh was on time and did a through job inside and outside our home. Thanks.
They occasionally let me know they are coming. I have requested that they always tell me they are coming. But they don't. They always miss the small places that need attention. Sometime they are too much in a hurry to be really thorough. Customer service is super really good.
Excellent Technician in Brad Professional attentive and comprehensive and flexible. Meets my schedule needs, gets results
Malik's quality of work is outstanding. He will address any concerns immediately without shortcuts being taken. He holds the bar very high for quality of service. Malik has much pride in doing a good job with quality work delivered. These are rare values that should be recognized.

I have ants all over my back deck that seem to have gotten worse after your treatment. I had to rebuild the back deck because black ants made the wood decking unstable since Ardent was taking care of it. The driveway is full of ants and the front porch is covered with ants. The techs with Ecopest did not treat my…

This is an update from my last review a month ago. I had to call for someone to come back out to treat carpenter bees. Robert came out again and was his usual friendliness and professionalism. He treated the area and explained the life cycle of the carpenter bees, as well as recommended fix.
Thanks for finding the mystery wasp nest!
My tech was extremely professional, helpful, polite, and informative. The service was wonderful overall.
Ronnie was great and very informative about products and services offered without pressure to upgrade. Overall five star service and I will encourage more friends to join your service.
Quentin came for the usual quarterly preventive work but also took care of a small wasp infestation and dealt with a mouse issue. Advised us on possible avenues for mice to enter. Very knowledgeable and professional. Excellent on-time service
Eco Pest control was professional and very responsive. Contacted them 12 hours before they time they actually arrived at my house! They get to you quickly and provide you with great information and solutions.
I’ve used Ardent/Ecopest for a couple years now and they’ve been great! Our technician, Ronnie, is top notch! Knows his stuff and is always extremely professional.
Chris is awesome 👌
Derek was on time and communicated before/when he arrived via text. Very complete treatment, from crawl space to foundation and the interior/attic. Very friendly.

Robert was super helpful and genuinely nice! Very professional.
Great people to work with
I can’t imagine a better pest control company. I initially used them for regular pest control but I’m using them now for mosquito control. I have gotten a bite since they started and I haven’t seen nary a tick on my dogs. Great job!!
I must say, I am extremely pleased with my initial service. William came in and did a thorough treatment. He was very informative and straightforward in letting me know my problem areas! He is a very professional guy and a great people person. Great value for your money!
William was so friendly, helpful, and professional. Thank you!
Nobody called before they came so the inside of the house was not done.
Always attentive and do a great job.
Contacted via yelp after moving into a new home. The response was in less than 30 mins and within 3 hours they were here and doing an initial treatment. Reasonably priced and very professional. Thank you.
Matthew was prompt, friendly, efficient and responsive. Thank you.
James is always on time, respectful and does great work. He is attentive to detail and very thorough. I've recommended these folks a few times now and have been pleased. Also the products are safe and they work very well.
