Excel Pest Control took care of my pest issues and their pricing was very reasonable compared to other pest control companies. Justin was truly professional, courteous and knowledgeable throughout the process.
Absolutely amazing experience with Excel. Mark is particularly helpful. Offering up lots of knowledge along with treatment. He spent a lot of time with me trying to help resolve a Yellowjacket infestation in my house. I previously used Fox pest control but i cancelled them after 3 visits with no improvement on my…
This service was amazing, I was able to book them the night before and explain the issue I was having with a wasps nest before a party. It was handled right then and there. Justin was amazing! Then he asked if I had any other concerns I needed to address. I was having issues with a family of skunks living on my…
Excellent response time from the initial call to all follow up calls. Brian Moran listened attentively to the critter issue and promised to deliver satisfaction guaranteed service.
Great service …prompt, courteous, and honest. Dylan is a trusted resource!

I would highly recommend Excel Pest Control! Dylan made the entire process so easy and stress free. He communicated every step and was very professional.
We’ve been using Excel for probably 8 years for our yearly pest control as well as mosquito and tick control. They are always very professional, and any time we have an issue with a new pest, they are quick to come bye. John from Excel is usually who comes to the house, he is always very professional and very nice, always great to speak with him.
Loved working with Dylan--he assessed my problem right away and came up with a plan to address it and stay on top of it. I like working with Excel because I know if something comes up, they can have someone knowledgeable out here quickly to assist.
Dylan was knowledgeable, effective, attuned and competent. His initial evaluation visit, and follow-up were extremely efficient and he addressed each potential issue with clarity. This has been a five star service.
Justine showed up on time explained everything clearly and worked quickly.
Brian did a fantastic job explaining the plan that would work best for our house, and he was quick and friendly. Highly recommend this company!
