We have been using Gecko for several years. Megan in the office is always so helpful with scheduling and so helpful if we have an issue in between service.

I was on site several weeks ago, which was helpful for discussion and plan of action. Drew did a great job as far as I can tell. Lets see if the Ants get the message and move out. ;o)
Always professional, friendly and good at what they do!
Richie Abelia is always very thorough and helpful when he troubleshoots areas that pop up with new pests. He does the right treatments that get the results I want. I really appreciate that he has been on my service account for months now as I feel good about the service I’m paying for. Thank you, Richie!
Always great service by Gecko. Dakota is great. Very responsive and on time. He explained everything well and gave a lot of insight on pest issue. The office staff is great as well. Always friendly and they get everything scheduled in a very timely manner.
This was a new experience for me as I am very concerned about pesticides. Drew addressed my concerns about protecting spiders and pollinators. Ants were are problem. The ants inside and out are gone and the pets can eat in peace. Great office service and communication skills 😁

Matthew was very thorough on explaining Gecko’s services as well as being realistic with me about our issues. I never felt pressured to use their services from speaking to the dispatcher when I originally called to schedule or from Matthew. Very happy with their services, and I will continue to use them for preventative pest control.
Joe was great! Professional and efficient. Thank you!
Very professional work by Matt Barber. Explained services and what he would do. Options for treating pets, services that can be retained, and work to be preformed.
He showed up on time and kept me informed about his arrival. He told me what he was going to do.
He was helpful and knowledgeable, he helped me take down my wasp nest that I had litterly all around the house. Great cleaning up afterwards.
Mathew, our tech, was quick, professional and effective. Gecko pest control has been easy to work with, cost efficient and responsive. I honestly have nothing but good things to say about the service they have provided to my family.

Matthew wilder is a great asset to the Gecko team. Very knowledgeable, professional, friendly and is happy to explain the products he is utilizing. Thank you!
Jordan came out and cold knocked one day, after trying to handle the problem ourselves we figured it was better to call the professionals. He and their office were awesome. I called, asked to have Jordan come back out to help us before a party and he made it out the same day I called. Very thorough, professional, and informative.
Jordan was the best. He spent the time looking for the problems we relayed to him and took action to fix those issues. If I could give him his own stars rating it would be a 10. Thank you Jordan Frank!
Been using Gecko for about a little over a year now. Always on time and comes back if needed. Our current tech does great and gets us what we need for our spiders and ants. Highly recommend
Gecko is always great! They are very communicative and helpful. I’ve seen great results from their service. Every member of their staff has been awesome to work with and they keep detailed notes on my property’s layout/preferences since I have free range chickens and pets. This month Matt did a great job and was super helpful and nice. Thank you Gecko!!
Very happy with Gecko. Follow up is amazing. They always call and check on things and there is free follow up after they come to make sure issues are taken care of. Will continue with every other month service. Very happy 😊
Jorden Frank at gecko was kind, responsive, answered all my questions and let me know what to expect next. Great first impression. Thanks.
Drew has done a ton of our pest and rodent control. He’s always very responsive and professional and gets the job done!
