Bradley from Friendly Pest Solutions is hands-down the best tech I’ve ever worked with. He does great work and takes the time to explain everything. Why the bugs are showing up, where they’re coming from, and exactly what he’s doing to fix it and keep them out. His follow-up and customer service are top-notch. I…

As recent out-of-state transplants and new residents of the Tampa/Wesley Chapel area, we initially found the process of setting up services for our home to be stressful. However, Friendly Pest Solutions has truly lived up to its name and the many positive reviews we read. From the initial consultation to our second…

Steve did a great job!!
I’ve been a loyal customer of Friendly Pest Solutions for over a decade, and their service has consistently been exceptional. Every tech who’s come to my home has been professional and thorough, but I have to give special recognition to Emanuel. During a routine pest treatment, he noticed a few dead bugs in the…
This was my first treatment from Friendly Pest Solutions and I couldn't be happier. I've used other companies in the past and have had mixed results from the technicians. Before arriving, Adrian called to give me his ETA and arrived at that time. He put on shoe covers before entering the house. I was on a work…
Rob did an amazing job! He was courteous, knowledgeable, and very personable! He got the job done very quickly and walked us through the cadence of how they will be treating us for the rest of the year. He also showed us some of the other products he used, keeping us informed!

Thank you Elvis for your seamless service. He has come back several times to make surall our issues have been take care of.
Did a great job communicating with me through the whole process. The name truly says it all! Great service and the offer to come back for free if we ever see any bugs outside of typical service. Even came back the following week to hit the inside because we weren’t ready when they did the outside. Will definitely be continuing to use this service!!
They are the most professional service that I have ever had. Moe is fantastic, courteous, and always has a smile on his face. He does the job thoroughly as well as swiftly.

Ray and everyone else has been very courteous, communicative, and quick
We use this company for quarterly service. They are always professional and polite. Ray went above and beyond today. He was only suppose to spray outside but over the weekend I experienced a palmetto bug in the bathroom and he took the time to spray and lay traps for me.
I have been getting great service from this company since they first started. Once a year pest control has been very effective. Elvis is knowledgeable, hard working, pleasant to work with, always covers his shoes when enters the house, professional and went above and beyond his duty today. Thanks for all you do!!
Amazing company and service....highly-qualified and will be my forever pest control company

I have been a customer for 2 years and always satisfied with the service. Today Chandler responded to a ghost ant issue. I have never been more impressed with such a superior level of customer service. This young man is professional, friendly, knowledgeable , and caring. I will request him every time. You have a…
Very personable and knowledgeable. Friendly Pest Solutions has the BEST technicians.
Ely is hands down the best technician we have had the pleasure to meet! Our first time meeting Ely, our daughter followed behind curious as to what was taking place. Of course I trailed behind, and Ely was so wonderful to explain what she was doing, even showing how the bait is actually being eaten to help deter the…
Chandler did a great job of making sure the dogs are safe and organic vegetable gardens were avoided while doing general prevention for ants. Friendly is always helpful and professional and I like that the products are safer.
They always go above and beyond the Call of Duty they care about every client Home. As if for their own. Ellie is amazing.

Friendly Pest Solutions is a wonderful company that I would recommend to everyone I know! I was assisted by Sergio who was very knowledgeable in his recommendations and very kind throughout the process. Five stars for them no doubt!
Best service. From John who came for the inspection to Mo who did the initial service, great service, very polite and courteous. They do their job well and the service you pay for is well worth it. I also want to call out Natalie at the front desk. She is very friendly and pleasant as well. Overall great experience.
Wow what a great place to deal with, from the first inspection by the manager to first treatment done by Ellie which was excellent, they did exactly what they said and even came back after 2 weeks from the initial application. No bugs and the best pest control service I have ever experienced in over 20 years of…

I was having issues with ghost ants and finally called for professional help. Friendly Pest Solutions has been amazing in diagnosing the issue and ensuring the problem was eliminated and not just temporarily corrected. Elvis has come out for follow ups and is very professional and friendly, extremely thorough, and…
Mauricio was wonderful and we will continue to work with him in the future as needed! We moved into a new house that had been sitting for a while, so we had some unwanted pests. Mauricio was very thorough and reassured us that we would no longer have a problem, and that he would be following up with us. Pricing is…
I can't express enough how 100% pleased I am with this company. I hired Friendly Pest Solutions because I didn't want to use one of the large chains and I really made the right choice. They are prompt, professional, and determined to meet their customers needs.
This is, by far, our favorite home services company in the area. In Florida, being exposed to pests is a guarantee, but we didn't want any to invade our home. They have set us up with a lot of preventative measures to keep our home pest free. They have also found a few non-pest errors in the house (Ely inspected…
Since moving to Florida we have used Friendly Pest Solutions, they offer a great service that is exceptional VFM. Today I had my first encounter with a Wolf Spider (complete with babies) and they came out, sprayed and got rid of the huge hairy spider. So efficient, friendly and effective. I would recommend them to everyone.
Emmanuel Munoz is an excellent worker and went the extra mile to explain what he was doing and why.
The technicians were very nice and informative. They treated my house the same day and were able to set up mosquito control for me in the future. I'm very happy with my choice to use friendly pest! Updating because I used Friendly's termite services. I wish I could give 10 stars. Friendly is amazing. Myra, JD, and…
A+ business! Professional, friendly, knowledgeable, kind, understanding...I could go on! I have used their services for a year since we purchased our home, and it has turned out to be a great investment. I definitely recommend this business!
Elvis did an excellent job and covered all the areas in and out. He also addressed all my concerns. I have recommended Elvis to my neighbors and friends. He addressed two of my recommendations on the same day that he serviced and addressed my needs.
They live up to their name - super friendly! Would highly recommend hiring them.
Friendly Pest Control is an extermination company that you can trust, given my experience. They were professional, warm and thorough. I can recommend them, especially since a few other companies were just not suitable.
Very thorough review of my particulars; clear understanding of their techniques; can tell this company is honest and has integrity two major values. Elvis was knowledgeable, professional and easy to connect with. Very excited to have them as my pest control service company, I get my first service with them…
Great customer service going above and beyond for their customers

Sergio and Tyler they're respectful, professional and very comfortable to have them in my home... Thank you
Amazing service, professional and reliable! Had these guys come out when we were hearing scratching in our wall. They set up traps and did their thing. A day later we began to smell a foul odor and called them up. JD came out and found a Possum in our wall and one (or a few) who were already decomposing. He also…
I especially like their knowledge and natural pesticides.
I saw the good reviews about this pest control company and I was in need of help ASAP! Someone reached out to me the next day after I posted on Yelp that I needed some service. They were very professional and kind on the phone. Once the pest control man came out and inspected my rodent troubles he set up traps in…
They called on their way (which is great when you have pets that need to be put away). They were very punctual (early actually!). They explained their services and were prepared to treat same day. Very courteous and professional
Excellent, thorough, and knowledgeable service - from first phone call to last visit. Everything is explained, even got a little bug lesson. Reasonably priced. It's not pleasant to have pests. However, having a company come in and do a good job from get go, with immediate results, has made it a bit more bearable.
This pest service company is always professional and extremely knowledgeable! They go above and beyond to treat us like we were their family and it’s always a pleasure to have them at our home. I highly recommend this service and especially Elvis, who is a fantastic human being!
We have used many pest control companies in the past and this company by far exceeded our expectations! Very thorough work we were very impressed! He took the time to ask the right questions for our situation and acted on them. We think we found our permanent pest company! Knowledgeable and Friendly.... Thank You -Josh
JD with Friendly Pest Solutions came out extremely fast, he was courteous, friendly, and knew his trade very well, I was impressed. He spent almost 2 hours taking care of our concerns and fully explaining everything he did, which is longer than the total amount of time our previous company spent over a period of 2…
I paid about $90 to have a termite inspection of the home I’m buying. Got my report within about 24 hours but the report says basically, they couldn’t get into the attic where they needed to go but they didn’t see any signs of living or dead termites... Each part of the inspection says they couldn’t access. I don’t…
We were having a bad problem with drain pipes gnats. We were going out of our minds. I called them and they were able to fit us in the schedule for the next day.
