We recently had a football-size wasp nest show up on a front yard bush. When Mason came by for our regular exterior pest inspection and treatment, I told him about the nest. He then quickly and professionally removed the nest and took it with him.
Russell Whitney is professional and thorough. Thank you for always doing a great job!
Steve completed a complete rebait on our property . Couldn't ask for a better technician!!! He was extremely professional and spent the time required.
Great service. On time very thorough and informative.
Very through and professional job. Thank you for great service today!
I had Ron at my house today addressing a bee issue. He was amazing. Very personable and extremely kind. He was very thorough in looking for a nest and spraying to prevent further issues. Fox pest was super responsive to my problem. Thank you Ron!
Mason is the best! He always goes above and beyond to take care of our needs!
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…
carlos was great! He was very professional. Spoke to me at the door and explained what he was doing
Bernard did a great job treating where we have had many Stink Bugs showing up and also sprayed the foundation and treated all around the house. Very nice man and did a lot more than we expected! Service included in our Contract - so worth it!
Mikhail was very thorough treating my property. We had a massive invasion of stink bugs which he immediately went to work to eliminate. Mikhail went above and beyond going into the attic to spread dust to keep the insects from entering the house as well as treating the entire perimeter of our home and property. I…
Bernard was friendly, professional, and efficient. Very nice person.
I was fortunate enough to have James as my first tech.He is very respectful and precise in his application.Hes also friendly and I would invite him to a barbecue. Sincerely J. Jeffrey Upton
Great company. Very friendly staff.
Very positive experience! Happy with the service they have provided so far given the fact that I live near the ocean and had a serious problem with rodents. So far Fox has been on target in containing the spread of rodents in and around the area of my home. Only problem is when a different tech. shows up as I get…

Technicians that come out remember how I like to treat my property. Good consistency
Nora is Absolutely fantastic! Thank am hopeful that Nore can continue to be our technician. The time and care she took to honor our treatment requests are unmatched. She went above and betond
I want to thank your group again for all they do. We have not had a problem at all since you started. Tonight I was out at dusk weed wacking my lawn and was very pleasantly surprised that I didn't have one bug come after me. I don't have a working lawnmower so I can only do so much each time with the weed wacker,…
Harrison G. was right on time for the appointment, was courteous and professional. He addressed all my requirements to satisfaction, reviewed respectfully some areas of concern, leaving a quite positive impression of his & Fox capabilities. Appreciated, Paul
We always get great service. Hard worker, goes above and beyond. He is able to explain what he is using and doing. Never rushes. Great representative of the company.
Although I wasn’t home when Alexander came he left a detailed account of what he did. I saw him on my Ring camera doing the work. I’m very impressed with the company as I did meet them a few months ago No complaints. Professional & courteous
Very professional Ron King is extremely knowledgeable and very thorough I consider him a friend now . Fox is very fortunate to have him
Russell did an excellent job. He was very professional and polite.
What I have learned from living in a house surrounded by woods is this: from the ants, carpenter bees, stink beetle... You name it, they want to live in wet wood. Homes age, roofs age and water finds its way, and so do the pests. The Fox quarterly treatment is the only program I have found that works to prevent costly damage.
Good job on all that was done but what about the wasp nest that I had asked to be taken care of?
Russell called me on his arrival by 4 PM. Then he arrived on time and checked all the mice box traps and filled them in some of them. There were no evidence of any eaten of the lures. Both my garage and outside basements were cleared of any rodents. He also checked the 2 trap boxes outside before leaving.
Russell was Professional and responsive. Received nothing but good service.from every single Fox employee. who I have worked with through Fox, pest control has been professional , kind and well knowledgeable. It appears that their employees must be good because they all seem very happy and like their job.
Scott did an amazing job and was very thorough. Great personality and answered any questions I had. He explained everything he did for us with the applicants and we can’t be happier with the service!
Very fast,efficient and knowledgeable. They do a great job.
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…
I wanted to provide a great review for my Fox Tech Bernard Carter. He listened to every concern I had and explained how he was going to treat them. He spend extra time in the areas of concern and arrived promptly with texts stating ETA.
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…
