Matt did a great job spraying for ants and other insects that have occasionally snuck into my house. He said he sparyed for other kinds of bugs as well. I haven't seen mice or rats for quite a while (🙏🙏🙏🙏). He didn't charge me anything because I have automatic payments already set up. (On a previous visit…
Don’t use Fox Pest Control. They are not a local company. You can never call them directly and only get a call center in Utah. I signed a contract for mosquito and tuck spraying and it was working until they sent a technician in the rain who ever sprayed the front yard and barely the back in August. They hadn’t to…
Jay was very knowledgeable, professional, respectful and personable. He was also extremely thorough. He thoroughly checked the interior areas I pointed out to him, due to ongoing mice issues. He also sprayed the exterior of the house, and tended to the lawn with insect product. Jay checked with me upon arriving…

Russ was on time and did a great job explaining the source of our bug issue. He sprayed inside our kitchen, and then also swept and sprayed around the outside where we have many spiders and web issues. We just recently developed an ant issue in our paved walkways and he sprayed there as well. We appreciated the…
Always happy with Fox Pest Control's service.
Very helpful. Explained services being applied. Friendly and polite. Great technician!
Once again Mason did a great job. He knows where all the bait stations are located and he quickly went to work checking them. He then sprayed the property for ticks and ants and other pests. He is always very thorough and takes the time to listen to and address my concerns. I do want to mention that since Fox…
Alex Osorio is amazing. He is knowledgable, respectful, kind, prompt and professional. I am very happy to have him service my home and yard.
Tech was nice and explained all he was doing. He was quick. He was here and then gone. I question all the services because the bee hive is still there in the back corner of the house?
Russell did a great job! He also answered all my questions and provided useful information. Thanks!
David Johnathan Rodriguez is an excellent and knowledgeable technician. So personable as well. Would highly recommend his service!
Ashley shows up and fills up the bait stations and makes sure that my pest control plan is in place. She is prepared,professional and efficient. Thank you, Ashley Ashley keeps my "mouse problems" under control. She also treated for ants and spiders! Thanks Ashley for your friendly and knowledgeable visit. I always enjoy our friendly exchange.
Technician did a great job. He focused on the areas I asked. He was very professional and polite. Job well done.
Always great service and a pleasure!
Tech is always informative. Always on time Offered great advice . Weather had not cooperated nothing but rain rain rain so hopefully it didn't wash away outsides application (NOT a tech issue just a New England weather issue) He's understanding of weather totally backs up his work if it rains he says no worries…
My kitchen suddenly had a big ant infestation this week, so I immediately called Fox Pest Control. Mason arrived at my home within 2 hours, assessed the situation, and treated both inside and outside the house. By that evening the ant problem was gone! I am amazed and, of course, a very happy customer!! Thank you, Mason!!!
The tech did a good job and treated all of the areas I was concerned with.
Tech was on time, very polite and knowledgeable. He was able to answer all my questions and addressed all of my concerns. So far so good.
I cannot thank Eric enough for all the work he has done!!!
Excellent service and communication.
It was a pleasure meeting Jim Rose. He is very pleasant and professional. He took the time to listen to my concerns and then he explained every step that he would take to address those concerns. He is one of the reasons that we would recommend Fox Pest to others.
Eric was awesome, very professional, thorough and informative. Couldn’t have been better. Thank you!
Kieran was very courteous, well put together, respectful of my property. He answered all my questions and addressed my concerns without haste or cutting corners. He was on time and communicative of his schedule.
Eric did a thorough inspection, refilled traps, provided helpful advice and went way beyond the call of duty.
Excellent service and great technician (Scott)!
Sosa came to my house within the time window we were given and answered all of my questions prior to starting our service. We haven’t had any ants since he treated our house. We plan on having him back to spray our yard for mosquitos. Great service and knowledgeable staff!
Eric was thorough and knowledgeable of property having been here before. He informed me of what treatment was needed for the outside, after completing the inside.
James was friendly, professional, and I felt confident in his assessment of our needs. I feel that this has been a good decision, and am looking forward to continued good service.
I had the great pleasure of working with Sosa, he came out explained to me how all the products worked, the process of the services and the expectation that came with them. Sosa was very knowledgeable and very professional and I would gladly recommend fox to anyone else based off the professionalism of Sosa. 10/10
