Casey came out for our first visit, and explained everything he did, as well as what to expect going forward. Super nice! I like knowing I am supporting a small hometown business.
I want to give Greg Lancaster a great review because he went above and beyond today. Greg came to my home in Helena at 1:00 PM and stayed a little over an hour. He took his time and made sure he addressed every concern we had. He brushed down all the cobwebs around our house, treated the ant mounds, sprayed the…
Very personable and explained things in good detail. Took time to get problem areas in the house. Recommend services.
Having just moved here from northern Illinois, we certainly aren't used to the different types of bugs and wasps and snakes you all have here! Greg, our service provider, did an awesome job on our first visit, we've already caught several Palmetto bugs in the traps and he did a great job if not only giving our house…

Farmers Pest Control responded quickly to my online request, even being a Sunday morning. They had a technician, Casey, at our house the following morning.

Casey was knowledgeable and did a great job. Listened well regarding the specific types and locations of our pests.

I am SO glad I found Farmers Pest Control! We had our initial treatment this morning and I couldn’t be more pleased! Isaac was our technician and from the greeting, he was super professional, easy to talk to, and very knowledgeable! I told him we were having issues with ‘sugar ants’ and he was very excited that I…
Greg came out today only an hour after I inquired about some help with ants. He was SO nice, professional and personable. Most of all, he was thorough. I am so thankful I chose to call a locally owned business to help us out! We will be customers for life.
Excellent Service
Greg was so professional! Very knowledgeable. He was helpful and patient with any questions or concerns I had. I signed up for quarterly maintenance. I am very happy with my experience so far with Farmers Pest Control and would highly recommend them!
*Update 2023: Due to initial roach problem being fully resolved, an increase in Farmer's treatment charges, and prior year personal issue with a drop in cash flow I wanted to lessen treatment frequency. Farmer's was helpful and agreed to a 6 month maintenance period when I inquired. It was considerably higher per…
Terry was very through and professional. He did a great job.

Greg was here on time, very professional, and did a great job.
Fast and very professional service. Company car, company uniform, clean equipment.

I called on a Monday morning with a major ant problem. They came out the same day and took care of it for us. Very knowledgeable and awesome to work with.
The staff at Farmer’s Pest control are top notch! Alan Farmer is the best at what he does! But their best quality is their integrity. Alan is trustworthy and reliable.

Farmers did a wonderful job and we are happy to have them take care of our new home.
We were having a problem with ants in our new home. After several DIY attempts, I contacted Farmers via the online option after business hours. They responded the next morning and had a technician at the house the same afternoon. With one treatment the ants are gone and I have peace of mind knowing they will be…
