Eric was newly assigned to our property as our service technician. Eric is reliable, dependable, friendly/personable, professional, thorough, knowledgeable, and he takes care of our insect and rodent problem…we could not be happier with the service Eric provides us!! The very high level of service we’ve experienced these past 8 years as a EcoGuard customer with reps such as Dirk and Rick in the past is matched by Eric and he does an excellent job for us!! Thank you, EcoGuard for Eric and his great service! We appreciate him! It matters who you get as a service tech!!
