I just moved into my house and I set up my pest control through Farmer’s. Greg was sent out and did a fantastic job!
Most comprehensive and thorough visit ever from a pest control technician!! More thankful than ever that we found Farmer’s Pest Control In Helena. Issac was thorough in his explanation every step of the way and i have no doubt that we have the best pest control technician and pest control company anywhere!!! I will…
Isaac did a great job today even with us changing up the work order last minute. Very professional and friendly.

Isaac Howard was simply amazing. He is very knowledgeable and helpful. Always had an amazing experience with farmers pest control.
Isaac did a great job today and was professional and polite. He went the extra mile to clean spider webs and did a thorough job spraying and making sure he had gotten all the things taken care of. He was super friendly and was such a nice personable gentleman. I appreciate him taking the time to help us figure out all the things. Thank you!
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…
We were having an issue. I called on the holiday as a new customer and they came first thing this morning to handle our issue! Amazing service!!
We've had two visits so far, one from Greg and one from Issac and We've already are seeing a vast improvement! Definitely satisfied with our service.
Highly recommend the entire Farmers crew as from scheduling to my appointment being over everything was nothing but professional and great communication. Isaac was amazing! He walked myself and my husband through every detail as he was treating rooms and provided tips for ongoing services.
My technician was Greg. Very polite and personable. Treatment was quick!
On 7/1 I had an initial pest control treatment of my home and it was terrific! Greg and Nolan did an outstanding job with the treatment as well as walking me through the process that Farmer’s will take with the pest control service. Very friendly and excellent at their work!
Isaac went above and beyond. Best customer service experience I can remember.
Farmers Pest Control is a fine respected Helena, AL business and do high quality, great work for a fair and equitable price. Greg Lancaster and Alan Farmer are good men and support our Helena Community.
Very friendly and extremely professional. Process for setting up service was super simple, and quick. Also, showed up on time on the day of service - did not have to wait around on them at all.
Farmers is the best pest control in the Birmingham area. Great company with excellent customer service.
Brad went far beyond my expectations. I had called yesterday about a bad wasp infestation. Had no idea he could come today. He was prompt, knowledgeable, and personable. He educated me about their services as well as personal attention to customer needs. I am switching to Farmers from a large company that has not provided anything like the past two days.
We have been using Farmers Pest Control for a couple years. They have always been professional and most importantly responsive to any request. We are moving and they did our WIR and bond. Brad and Alan are fantastic.

Excellent Service
*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…

Greg did a great job at my home. He was very nice and professional. He explained what he did and why he was doing it. This is the second home I’ve trusted with Farmer’s Pest Control. I can’t imagine using any other company. I would give 100 stars if I could.
Alan and the team are always so friendly, responsive, and professional. They come out and treat if needed between treatments and are always so polite and ready to help. Even our Dobermans love when the guys come visit! I would recommend a million times over.

Have been with Farmerguard since the beginning. The best people and services that I've used and I've been using pest control companies since 1974.

I used another company for about 30+ years. And I always continued to see cockroaches and spiders in and around my home.
