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…
carlos was great! He was very professional. Spoke to me at the door and explained what he was doing
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…
We had Richard mason today for mice control as well as clearing spiderwebs scattered around. He was very thorough and did an excellent job. Thanks Richard !
paid attention to detail and did what we needed. Thank You
Good service
Technicians that come out remember how I like to treat my property. Good consistency
Tick and mosquito treatment has been great. Sign up was simple. Communication before treatment by text is very helpful to remind me so I can let my dog out beforehand.
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
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
Sosa did a great job explaining and treating the problem. Very much appreciate the thorough indoor and outdoor service treatments!
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!
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.
Our technician Eric did a great job! Thorough & informative - we have a large yard & we battle with mosquitos! Really appreciate the effort Thank you and good luck with your NH assignments.
Very helpful. Explained services being applied. Friendly and polite. Great technician!
Alex Osorio is amazing. He is knowledgable, respectful, kind, prompt and professional. I am very happy to have him service my home and yard.
Thank you, Nathan, for your excellent service and outstanding customer care! You were professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything step by step. I truly appreciated your patience in answering all my questions and making sure I understood the treatment process. Your attention to detail and…
Technician was awesome 💯 he went above and beyond. Explained what he was doing ..👍
Always great service and a pleasure!
This company has been to my house 3 times this year to spray for ticks and mosquitoes. The first time the guy didn't have the backpack to spray and only put granular down that was put down 2 days prior during my initial home protection plan visit. So I called and was told there was some misunderstanding and they…
Very conscientious, very personable.
Service was excellent we had a good amount of wasps up in our roofline and they were taken care of great. The salesman named alek who came to our door was also fantastic, explained every part of the service very throughly and the service delivered very well. We’re very excited to get our mosquitos done with fox as well in the coming days!
Arren was very polite and informative. Highly recommend. He did a good job on the property and was a pleasure to talk to.
Fox Pest technician, Matthew Nadeau, is awesome- shows up at the times he says he is going to, is polite, professional, and friendly. Always takes the time to explain what he was doing, why he is doing it and what the results should be. If they can get their customer service up to the same level of professionalism…
Excellent service and great technician (Scott)!
Nathan goes above and beyond in his job and I very much appreciate him. Just overall a great employee.
Our technician Kieran was very kind and informative. We have dogs and he made sure to tell me how long I should keep them in after the treatment. It was Kieran first time at our property and he made sure to ask me where our property ends.
Great customer service, very happy with everything :)
Michael Culon arrived promptly to perform both my indoor and outdoor services. He explained what services he was providing and asked if I had any areas of concern. He took my feedback and began providing the services. Michael was very professional, friendly, courteous and extremely knowledgeable. I am on an annual…
The service sucks i wouldn't recommend FOX pest control to my enemy
We have 2 acres of land that we have paid to be sprayed, and I only heard him spraying for less than 5 minutes....although he sat in his truck for a long time after he stopped spraying.
I had the pleasure of working with Michael from Fox Pest Control, and I can’t speak highly enough of him! From start to finish, he was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful. He took the time to thoroughly assess the situation, explained everything in detail, and made sure all of my concerns…
Kyson took care of us and was very thorough. Give this man a raise. Thank you
The guys always show up on time , whatever they are using at my house is working amazingly no bugs no spiders no nothing , highly recommend, price is fair
Michael provided top notch service!
jeffrey graf did a great job and was very professional and friendly
Chris K took great care of us for our yard enjoyment service. I spend a ton of time outside and haven’t been bitten by any mosquitos at our house — but when I walk my dogs around the neighborhood they swarm me — so I know the treatment is effective! Plus, my dogs are tick-free! Thanks, Chris!
They are great at communicating with the. Client. Nick went above and beyond !
Hello, Highly impressed so far with the front yard servicing. With that said not sure that the technician sprayed the back yard trees which is where the kids play on thier swingset???
Excellent, knowledgable, and speedy service. I've had other pest control services before, but I love the customer service and care of Fox Pest the best. Quarterly they take care of the inside and outside of my house for pests such as mice and ants. I love their monthly summer service with use of natural products…
Jason was AMAZING. Great information provided as well as explaining ways to prevent the issue we are having.
We were happy to have Daouda Saiwai treat our house and yard. Fox is lucky to have Mr Saiwai represent their company. Nothing I asked for him to do was a problem. He also spent time offering tips and showing me how to minimize nuisance pests. Daouda's relaxed, friendly and determined attitude will get him far in…
Mike was thorough and knows his stuff.
If I could give 0 Stars, I would. The technician came to perform services for mosquito and tick treatments, but did not perform the services. Horrible customer service and they are charging customers for work that is not performed.
We have been using Fox Pest Control for a few years now and are very happy with the results. The past several treatments by Fox we have had the same tech, Eric Gallant. He is great to work with. Very knowledgeable and explains everything thoroughly in terms that are easy to understand. 5/2025 update - when the warm…
Michael Colon was my technician - his communication about the work that he did at my home was great.
Results as-promised at a competitive price provided by a local business with conscientious employees.
My technician was very professional and detailed. He explained what was going on in my house and explained a plan on how to proceed. Fox is the best pest control company I have ever used in my lifetime!! Great service, price and results for all pests. He was a nice young gentleman!!!!
Fox Pest Control has been excellent! Ashley Arroyo is wonderful! We initially had them come in to deal with issues we were having with springtails and carpenter bees. They took care of both promptly, and we have had no problems. They have been fantastic to work with and give an unbelievable peace of mind knowing…
Chris was very thorough and provided with great service. Kept me informed on everything he was going to do and did.

Chris was on time, polite, and professional. He prayed for ticks, fleas, and mosquitoes and completed the job quickly.
Jonathan was such a great technician! He called 60 minutes prior to arriving and was on time, very friendly and explained everything he was doing. My husband I felt so taken care of and were left with such great peace of mind knowing that Fox has our property secured from pests. Thank you for a great service!
I specifically enjoy the time I am able to spend outside in my yard with my pup playing all day and not having to worry about pulling an insane amount of ticks off of her! It’s such a relief and now I can spend more time bonding with her than I am removing ticks! I am very pleased with the staff, Anthony was Very…
Jon Brynt showed up after a slight fall back on service and he was very efficient, knowledgeable and quick in addressing all the questions.
Chris K. was super professional and friendly!
Jonathon Watt came today and had great communication and was thorough with his job. Great tech!
All of their employees especially Chris Knighton go above and beyond. They are friendly, prompt and informative. They make sure to check in with us before and after every service and ensure that they have addressed all of our needs.
Chris Knighton was very easy to work with.
Great service!!
Chris Knighton did a great job. Friendly and professional.
Chris was a great technician, very nice and responsive to questions.
I hired Fox Pest Control through a door to door sales associate after doing some internet research on their team. The salesman sold his product thoroughly and was able to reach my budgeted price points. We sealed the deal within a one hour meeting. The services were scheduled and Cassidy came out to get the job…
We have used Fox for 2+ years. They do a good job keeping ants out of our house and the techs are all great. We started off with Lucia who my kids loved, but have been getting different techs lately. They are all friendly, listen to our recent issues and address them during the visit, and make sure I know what…
Chris Knighter was knowledgeable, professional, and efficient with the services provided today.
Fantastic service and professionalism. Chris is absolutely kind and attentive to detail. Very happy customer over here!
Chris was kind and professional. He made sure to make note of and avoid an outdoor animal enclosure. Also, my dog liked him, so that automatically means he is a good guy!
We have used Fox Pest Control for many years and their service has always been thorough and reasonably priced.
Jon Bryant was hands down the most professional skilled technicians that I've had at my house for any service. I highly recommend this company they continue to provide quality work and clearly make their employees happy. Jon was brilliant in his interaction with me and his level of experience and knowledge about…

Did a very good and thorough job.
Great service thus far
Xavier was great, very professional and helpful
This was our first time using fox pest control and we had Xavier to service hour house. I was very happy with the service and he was able to answer all my questions. I’ve been wanting to try a pest control service but was afraid of how much it would be, I'm glad I had someone come up to my door today to tell me about there company.

Luis Franco was very professional and informative throughout the service. He provided one of the best customer service experiences. It is evident that he cares about the clients and takes pride in his work. Would highly recommend Fox Pest Control.
Fox Pest Control contracted with us for a subscription pest control service. Terms of the agreement were laid out in a contract, but weren't clearly explained to the person home / who signed at the time. We tried several times to cancel the agreement via phone, fax, and text message but Fox refused to honor the…
Today I had my quarterly check up Keegan was very kind and knowledgeable he explained my service thoroughly and was very friendly. I always appreciate your work thanks again fox
Very professional. Thorough. Friendly and always on time. Lucia offers many preventive measures which we appreciate.
I have been using Fox Pest's services in and around my home for the past year after purchasing the house a year ago. The pervious owner left with a severe mouse infestation, lots of Hornets and Bees nests, as well as a yard infested with ticks. Not to mention lots lady bugs and stink bugs constantly invading the…
Luis Franco was thorough. He was patient enough to answer all stupid questions. He knew exactly where he kept the baits last time. Was impressed by his eagerness to understand the issues and fix it.
Cash and Ben came out to do my initial service and were very friendly and informative. They thoroughly sprayed and inspected around the outside of my house. They especially payed attention for possible wasp activity since we have a note on our account that a household member has a severe sting allergy. I feel much…
Good experience since the guys were nice and explained things well. But it’s too early to tell how efficient the treatments will be
Dalton & Devin performed the initial service on our home this weekend. They did an outstanding job! They were on time, friendly, courteous and professional. They explained each step of the process for treating our property. Glad we chose FOX.
Dalton the technician was courteous and professional, explained what he was doing at all times. The sales rep Braedon worked with me on all aspects and questions I had. We just moved in to a new community and the outdoors is much different from our previous homes. Hopefully we won’t need them every month but they will respond if we do.
My tech Xavier, was very professional and friendly. Wore his mask the entire time, explained the process, and What to expect. We are very happy with this service so far!
