My neighbors recommended Chem-Wise, we've been using them for past several years. No harsh chemicals, safe for our children and our pets. Friendly, professional service always for reasonable price. I highly recommend their services.

Update 6/14/2023: our most recent technician, Josh, has just been incredible! He is very thorough and wants to help us fix our mice issue. He's been out several times and goes the extra mile each time, even offering for a follow-up to come out and help get under our deck to find any openings. Chem-wise is VERY lucky…
