My mother usually complains about chemical smells after pest treatments, but this service was surprisingly manageable. They treated our house for spiders and insects without leaving the place unbearable afterward. The technician also checked on elderly-friendly safety steps before leaving, which felt thoughtful and professional.

A raccoon had gotten into our attic. Greg set the trap for him with cameras. Although we never caught him in the trap, we know he had moved on. Greg was able to seal the entry point with wire mesh, so he can never return. The repairs on the damaged vents turned out beautifully. Thanks to Far Hills Pest Control, I can sleep peacefully knowing that the raccoon is gone from my attic and cannot return.

Greg at Far Hills Pest Control was great. He kept us updated on the movements of the animal beneath our deck through texts and images captured by camera overnight. We weren't sure exactly what (or if) something had moved in. He trapped and removed the animal, and we will definitely call them again if we need to!

The overwhelming amount of positive reviews is not only accurate, it is well earned. Earlier this summer we had a family of raccoons getting everywhere. Every person we interacted with here were professional, knowledgeable, and quick to respond. The whole process to remove the critters was fast and thorough. I also found the prices to be worth the service we got. It just shows you cant beat the local buisnesses. Far Hills Pest Controls is now my go to.

I’ve used cheaper pest control companies before and usually the bugs return within a week. This service felt more detailed from the beginning. The technician checked behind appliances, around plumbing lines, and inside cabinets before treating anything. It’s been nearly a month and still no cockroaches anywhere.

Response from the owner · 4 months ago
Jessica, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. It really means a lot.
One thing we try hard to do is avoid treating every home the same way. Every property has different conditions, different pest pressures, and different concerns. Instead of simply following a standard treatment plan, we encourage our technicians to slow down, look for what's actually going on, and tailor the service to what they find.
I'm glad you noticed the attention to detail, and we appreciate the opportunity to help protect your home.

Greg made it out to our place very soon after I called the office with a concern about wasps in our house. Greg was patient and reassuring with me about the wasp issue, which had me very concerned. He walked me through the problem, took me up into my attic, and helped me form a gameplan for addressing the concern in the near and long term. I cannot recommend him and this company enough, I won't ever use anyone else.
