Steve and his team members always arrived in the time window given and gave reminders with updates on our property. The company is trustworthy and prices are reasonable.

I have used the quarterly service with Effective Pest Services since I moved into my house 8 years ago. Steve and his staff are alway professional, prompt, efficient and obviously do a great job as I have never had an issue with bugs or rodents. I would highly recommend them for maintaining a bug free, rodent free home ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We have used Effective Pest Services for over 16 yrs and are highly impressed with their professionalism and quality of their operation. The control and effectiveness of their service is far above any other pest control company used by us. I highly recommend this 5 star company to all readers of this review.
We’ve been using Effective Pest Services for a couple years now. Steve texts us to let us know he will be out to spray in the following couple days. Always shows up, and because of their processes, we never have rodents or spiders in the house. We were referred by family to him, and have referred our neighbors as well. Huge fans of what he does for us!
I’ve been very happy with their service. They are very professional and I have never had an insect/rodent issues since using them. If I see hornets trying to build a nest, I can call them and they’ll come out free of charge and do an extra targeted spray. I will continue to use them.
