Bridger was perfect at his job today. He is very professional and does quality work. I’d give him 5 stars all day, every day. Your employees make your company awesome, and you have great people representing Magic City Pest Control. Thank you for taking care of our pest control needs.
After feeling panic when I crossed paths with an angry hornet on my front porch, I was SO relieved that Magic City Pest Control responded! Karson was professional, prompt, personable, knowledgeable! Thank you for getting rid of those two hornets' nests so quickly, Karson!
Marquez was absolutely wonderful!! I noticed a bald face hornets nest last night, and was able to get a response from Magic City Pest control right away and had Marquez come out first thing in the morning. Was able to come up with a long-term plan for all pest in and out of my home as well as removing the massive…
Took time to answer our questions, view possible trouble spots and told us what to look for in the coming weeks.
This is my first time working with Magic City Pest Control and I am totally impressed! Ethan was amazing. He explained everything he was doing, he was so kind and informative. He got the cobwebs off my windows! Did a thorough spray in every room of the house, including outside of the house and an issue over by my…
Thanks, Jackson & MCP for being so timely & thorough & informative. Quarterly service & dirt dauber nest removal. Please visit again 🙏👍🏻👍🏻
I have used Magic City Pest Control for several years now, and I can't be more pleased with their pest control service and customer service. I know they focus a great deal of time and effort to make sure they hire only the best people as their technicians and then they spend hours upon hours training those…
Eathan is professional and courteous. I appreciate having the same pleasant and courteous technician each quarter. He is thorough.
Contacted Magic City Pest Control and Brooklyn was very nice provided me the information to start the service. Great service (by Ethan) and much better pricing (Initial and monthly) than the "T" company.
Very pleases with the service, would highly recommend
Very professional and courteous, Marquez did a great job.
I've been struggling with ants for months! Trying everything to get rid of these things, just for them to come back in a different location a week later. I was literally losing my mind, cleaning constantly, doing everything I could, but my efforts only worked for a few days or a week at most. So I decided to call…
Bugs hate these folks! That’s why I love them. Thanks Magic City Pest Control.
Highly recommended for anyone in the Morris/Kimberly area! Competitive pricing, knowledgeable staff, friendly service, and always professional and on time. Call them for any of your pest control needs.
Shout out to Terrance, he's the best. Professional, knowledgeable and he does an amazing job every time he services my cabin. I live in the middle of the woods and have had zero pest issues using Magic City. Great people (like Terrance) and great service.
He went above and beyond!!!
Always professional and takes care of all our pest control needs. 100% recommend them!
First pest control service that actually cares and has gone above and beyond to cater to both of my properties that is an hour drive apart. Highly Recommend!! Ask for Jeremy!
Great experience!
Love the service and customer care
The service guy was really nice and very informative. He answered all of my questions and gave great advice. I will suggest to use them for anyone in Calera, AL or surrounding areas.
Friendly and quick service. Very satisfied.
Magic City Pest Control came out the same day and treated our home for a multitude of issues including mice, spiders, and various other insects. Hannah was amazing at explaining what she was going to be doing, how it would help, and what to expect after treatment. Their prices are very reasonable and service is excellent!
I live in Abernant and have some unwanted visitors sometimes (all the time) 🙃 My technician's name was Hannah very nice lady and knew her job well 😊 She got rid of several red wasps-even in the wall, gnats, spiders, the granddaddy of them all-wood roaches. I can go outside in peace without mosquitoes eating me up,…
Reached out to them and was able to get on the schedule within a week. Showed up right on time and did a thorough inspection and initial treatment. Very professional and polite.
Great company! We had a very large hornets nest on the second floor of our house and they were able to promptly remove it. Highly recommended.
I am very satisfied with our entire experience, from recruitment, to follow-up, to service, and again to follow-up. The entire gang I've met so far (Chris, Jeremy, tech Jon and Kenzie), an excellent combination of professionalism, friendliness...and honesty. I did not feel "BS'd", as I have from other providers in…
I had a wasp issue and the technician was very thorough in their inspection and also very informative. I have 2 dogs so it was also important to me to use a company who uses safe chemicals when treating my house and they delivered. Highly recommend!
They are always on time, nice, & honest!!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND MAGIC CITY PEST CONTROL! We have tried big name pest controls and just the muggy area we live in, nothing seemed to work. We would have bugs coming back within a month period. One day, a very young fellow knocked personally on my door and asked if I would be interested in what he has to offer. From…
I live in the Highland Park/Avondale/Forest Park Area. Needed someone to do reliable pest control and we’ve been please with the service so far. Very reliable and great customer service.
If you’re looking for pest control services in or around Pelham, AL - look no further! Magic City Pest Control can’t be beat! The owner of MCPC, Kenzie, really knows his stuff! Any time we have any issues or questions he’s quick to help us out. MCPC also uses products that are safe for my dogs which is a HUGE plus!!…
These guys are awesome! My experience has been great. Even when I called them in between service times, they would show up. Not only are very punctual, they will even text and call to check and make sure you're good. That's what I call exceptional customer service.
They give the BEST pest control in Calera, Alabama! They come to me every 3 months but if I need them in between THEY COME WITHOUT ANY ISSUES!
Magic City Pest Control is the best. We have had lots of issues with Army worms and other pests in our new neighborhood in Alabaster - and they have helped so much. They are always responsive and professional, and they listen to my concerns. As a small business owner, I know the importance of customer service and…
Kenzie and the entire team continue to provide the best pest control in the metro Birmingham area for many reasons. My wife and I are located in Crestwood South and while we did receive service in Helena initially, Kenzie ensured services were seamlessly transferred and that the continued high standard of service…
Magic City Pest Control is the BEST! We live in Alabaster in a newer community. They came out after I noticed an increase in pests after some more work was done in the new building site in our neighborhood. They did such an excellent job! The only bugs in my house now are from kids leaving doors open 😂. Try…
Great customer service and always super nice! We have no issues with bugs! Check them out if you are in the Chelsea area!

I just wanted to reach out and say we really appreciated the fast service getting us added to treat our home. Jon has been AMAZING!!! He was super awesome not only in his thoroughness in treating our home last month but also with his treatment of our 9 year old son. Jon was so very patient and answered all his…
Small business and attention to detail and service are top notch! So glad they came to my door. Already a noticeable difference after only a few hours. Thank you Magic City Pest control! Look forward to working with you!
First appointment. Great company. Very friendly. Will continue with service.
First we met the owner and what a great guy! He made everything very simple for a new customer, then we met Jon. Jon is awesome! He explained everything he was going to do super super friendly. Our family is very thankful for Magic City, deff an awesome company.

Very polite owner/representative providing outstanding customer service. Personable yet professional. Don’t hesitate to move away from your current provider and move your services to Magic City Pest Control.
Saw them treating my neighbors home and asked about pricing. They were very courteous, knowledgeable and professional. They treated my home right there on the spot. Noticeable difference same day!! Awesome service and product!!
Excellent results from treatments. No flies or mosquitoes in grass. Found a wasps nest and they killed and disposed the same day.
Kenzie and Taylor were extremely professional and knowledgeable. We have been having issues with fleas and mosquitos, as well as a yellow jacket nest in our front yard. My wife is pregnant, so Kenzie made sure to personally walk us through the products he was using to ensure her safety and peace of mind. I would…
Kenzie came to my home and was very professional and friendly and explained the process! We got pretty much same day service and couldn’t be happier! Bye bye spiders! Thank you!
