I initially contacted this company in 2024 when I discovered active termites. The owner, Aaron, showed up that same day to inspect my home and was back the next day to perform the services needed. He returned one year later to inspect my house and foundation to ensure there was no new activity, which there wasn't. I…

Was stung twice a week apart by a Yellowjacket while mowing. Didn’t find a nest but knew they were close. Called Knockout and Aaron and Wes were out the following morning. Found the nest in 10 minutes and had it treated in less than an hour. Appreciated the quick response.

Proud to support local businesses and Knockout Pest Control provided fantastic service! Very knowledgeable, informative, friendly and affordable. My mother was having trouble with insects/spiders in her home and after the first treatment…gone. She has quarterly maintenance for preventative measures. I would recommend Knockout Pest Control over any corporate brand!

Aaron from Knockout Pest Control did a great job handling the mole activity on my property. He came out while I was at work, took care of everything, and kept me well informed throughout the process. He sent pictures showing where the activity was, placed markers so I could see the treated areas, and even called me when the treatment was finished. I really appreciated the communication and professionalism. Most importantly, the treatment worked and the moles are gone. I would definitely recommend Knockout Pest Control to anyone dealing with pest issues.

We’ve been using Knock Out Pest Control for a while now, and they’ve been excellent! Aaron is always super attentive and quick to respond whenever we have a concern.

Aaron at Knockout Pest Control was fantastic to work with. He was extremely responsive from the very first contact and took the time to thoroughly inspect our situation and explain everything clearly. His pricing was fair and transparent, and we never felt pressured, just genuinely helped. I highly recommend Aaron and Knockout Pest Control to anyone looking for honest, reliable, and knowledgeable service.
