Friendly, professional, did his work efficiently, and left without making any mess.
We've been using Cooks Pest Control for many years and are highly satisfied with all of their services. We pay for the bundle for mosquito, pest, and termite control. They are always very friendly and come back if we have any problems/need additional services (spiders, extra baits, etc).
Everytime I need assistance they there on time.
Great service. Always responds quickly to any issues we might have
I’ve been a Cooks customer for many years and have always been very pleased with their services.
Terri my technician was professional but friendly. Took time to answer questions and provided tips on placement of the sticky traps that I reallly appreciated. She was on time and went straight to work after geeeting me. Awesome young lady
I can't express enough how wonderful my service was with Cooks Pest Control. If your luck enough to have Rockwell Ramberg to service your home you diffently will have no worries.
Cooks has always provided great service. Timely and if any delays always calls
Good service, haven’t had near the outside bug problem as in years past !
I have a great technician that addresses all of my pest control needs. Thank you Rocky!!!!
Ray Nichols came out to my home and did a wonderful job. He was very knowledgeable and was very polite. I would 10 out of 10 recommend.
Very good service. Nice people to talk with
Technicians are very easy to work with and always contact you to schedule your service. Sometimes we never knew they were here, just knew they were coming.
Very pleased with our experience. The guy who came was very professional and extremely nice would definitely recommend to anyone
Really enjoy cooks pest control services and their staff is very professional.
Professional and on time. I also love that the products used do not irritate my children or pets!
Used Cook’s for years! Excellent service.
Very good services and friendly workers.
We don't have to think about when services are needed, you communicate well, we never have issues (we tried other places, for regular bug service, after about 6 weeks started seeing bugs in the home, switched back to you, no more bugs). Finally, your staff is wonderful. Robert has been treating our home for years…
By far the best pest control service in our area. We have another pest control company that services my place of employment and after seeing the two services I wonder how that other company stays in business. Cook's is by far the best in our area hands down.
Truly amazing service!
I called 3 termite companies to try to get an older house on a termite program and to get a WIR for my mortgage. Mr.Buggs came out and looked under the house. Said the crawlspace wasn't crawlable because of an air conditioning duct that divided off the house. I asked what I could do to remedy the situation. He said…
A great pest control company as their customers service is A +++.
Thorough insect inspection, along with rodent checking.
Have had a great experience with this company.
I trust this company and they are very responsive if you have a problem.
As long as Corey my rep is on top it and you don't have a sub person you're in good shape
Timely and professional service for a recurring issue with bugs
Using Cooks a little over two years now, all bug's, spider's and critters are definitely under control. Cook's will always accommodate my needs. They operate with no pressures and never are there any surprises. Appointments are easy via text and email, along with an easy to navigate website.
Fabulous service!
We had a german roach infestation in the kitchen (seeing @ 10-15 a day). I decided the only solution would be to burn the house down and start over but my husband convinced me to try a pest control company first. I had Cook's many years ago and not once in the 6 years I used them did I see a bug in the house so I…
Ever since Cook's has been coming to my home, I have not had a problem with spiders. Before I had called them, I was had a lot of trouble with spiders in my bathtub and shower area, and also in my garage. Our serviceman Carl is a great guy too. He is so friendly and helpful.
Complete home and yard vug protection. Every 3 months living in the country you got to make sure you must keep up the yard with Pest control
Whatever they use it most Def. Does the job.
Do what they say they’re going to do. And on time.
Have used Cooks for years. I have monthly service. They do inside and outside for me when I am there and they always ask ahead of time when would be best to come out.
Very professional and friendly
User John Meadows My tech takes care of my house like he would if it was his mothers! Never met more capable and friendly like able person in his capacity or in my work life. Coreys demeanor is fabulous and never changes. If I didn’t have him to service my home I might leave if Cooks didn’t have a similar tech.
Satisfied with the service I have received over the years.
Great company and great service. Mike our bugtech always remembers the little details about his customers and his so friendly. We wouldn't use anybody else
Every technician has been courteous and respectful and done a great job.
Mike is our bug guy and he’s been so thorough and does an amazing job. He always thoughtful and makes sure we are 100% happy with his work before he leaves.
Have used them for 15 years. Always do a good job!
Ray Nicolas always does a great job of taking care of my service!
We had German cockriaches that two other exterminators failed to kill off. They were professional and polite
Their products and services are great and at a good price.
Excellent service and amicable people.
Mike, our bug Guy is amazing! He's always so thoughtful and remembers everything about his customers. He always checks in and ask about the family. That's such personal customer service and it's amazing! Then I receive a Bible verse when I get my invoice which makes it even better. We have had some issues that made…
We use Cook's Pest, Termite and Mosquito prevention & control services. We are extremely happy with the service Cook's provides and recommend their services.
Techs are friendly and knowledgeable. When I’ve needed them to come out, especially an extra call, they have been very quick to accommodate.
The technician was very professional and respectful of my home and property. He also takes into account that I have pets inside the house and makes sure not to leave anything they can get that will harm them.
I am thankful for the phone call the night before service and the friendliness of any and all of the technicians that have come out.
They do a great job and they are very good they are also very polite and on time.
Great experience everytime 👍Wonderful employees. Especially Terri! Work is excellent. Very friendly and very thorough. Wonderful individual.
