I am so happy to have my technician. My guard dog is very comfortable with him. He also listens to my concerns and addresses the issue.
The service tech was here around 15 minutes a nice guy but I feel he could be a little more thorough. We have a slightly larger home and don’t think a thorough job could be completed in that amount of time. As stated in the service report he used 4 gallons of whatever to treat the area
Gecko does an amazing job with pest control at my house. They are always quick to come out when I have an issue and I love that I am not having toxic chemicals sprayed all over my property!

Met with Joe and Noah this morning to get our home serviced and they were both quite friendly and informative in relaying details of the services included in our contract with Gecko.
Really, really great! Matthew Wild provided a good and thorough treatment. He killed all of the black widows in our yard, and was knowledgeable in giving us advice.
Matthew did great and was very helpful and knowledgeable!

Rodgers is a great guy with a very good attitude . He's always happy and professional . Glad I found Gecko pest control and Rodger will be my pest control guy . Nice trucks and logo .
Drew was very informative explaining how, what & where service would be performed & reassured me that I could reach out anytime if needed.
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.
Drew came out to my home and walked it, letting me know where I may have some vulnerabilities for rats/mice to enter with suggested fixes for me to take care of myself. Drew was very professional and a great representative of Gecko Pest Control. Thank you!

Megan was promt at getting us an appointment. Service is great and on time. Repetitive service and in between is a great deal and ideal to maintain a bug free home and yard.
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!
Friendly and knowledge staff. Respond to calls for service between normal appoints quickly
Gekko is great for our routine checks to make sure critters stay outside, always professional and on time and answer any questions I have or address any concerns I have. Very knowledgeable 👍🏻
We had Drew come by and take a look at some pests that have been popping up in our neighborhood and he was able to tell me exactly what they were and where they come from! He was very knowledgeable and helpful in every way. My wife and I have been using Gecko for years and we definitely recommend them!
