Ricardo did a great job and even worked in the rain.
Great job. Thanks.takes very good care of our yard and house. I appreciate having him as our service provider. He’s great.
The tech showed up on time; was super polite and respectful and did a very thorough job explaining the treatment plan to me very well!
Raul was thorough. He checked the eaves, looking for wasp nests per my request. I looked outside a few times while he was here. He paid keen attention to whatever area he was in at the moment. Please send Jorge.again. I wish I could've sent him a better tip.
Joshua Jimmy did a great job when treating our home for spiders and other pests. He was very thorough and explained everything. He was also sweet enough to give my toddler a Moxie coloring book!
Moxie did a great job!
We recently switched to Moxie because they seem to have better and safer chemicals to get rid of our spiders and ants. George G. did our initial spray. He also used a brush to get rid of the spider webs everywhere - even in our cabana that has a high ceiling. George did a super job and we love the Moxie company!!
Moxie is a great pest-control company!
Fernando was the technician that came to do treatment of our home. He was professional and completed bug and insect treatment of our property in a timely manner.
Great service. Been using Moxie for about 9 years now and very happy with the staff and service. I recommend them highly
Excellent service
Joe is not the guy that did my service. I gave a review but it was not for this guy. Looks like your employees are sending out posts for a tip
Have had Moxie for a few years. No bugs of an kind. They come automatically quarterly (or on demand should you need them). Very professional in all aspects. Call/text you a reminder a few days before your scheduled appointment, text you a heads up a half hour before arriving, and announce when they arrive before…
Thanks Chris! very hot afternoon!
So pleasant and professional.
Angel asked if there was anything else he could help with. I asked him about how to get rid of the tiny “ghost” ants. He explained different kinds of situations and gave me some ant bait containers. Thank you Angel.
Raul Sanchez did a fantastic job! Give him a raise!
Right on time, clear with communication and did a thorough job!
We were not at home this time when he came by to service our property. We have always been satisfied with the work your employees have done.
took care of my issues very well. very satisfied!
As always, the personnel that represents Moxie pest control are professionals. Edwin did what was expected and we are always grateful for each team member member that services our home. Thank you!
Great job;
Lance always does a great job!
Robert the field expert did a wonderful job. Did a thorough cleaning of eaves of spiderwebs and treated lawn and flower beds.
Moxie office called me 60 minutes prior to Sigma arrival, and he came on time. He was excellent. 10/24/25
Thank you so much. Service is always exceptional. I love to be able to reach out for help and serbice check ins.
Josh was very professional and courteous
Very happy with Bryce who is Mr. personality. Very accommodating and professional with a smile on his face. Keep up the good work with great employees.
Great job! He worked very hard and did a great job! Thank you for the job well done!
Dylan was through, responsive, proactive and professional when he performed my quarterly pest control treatment today.
Ernesto Cervantes did a great job. He explained all the treatment and how it works. He worked hard on clearing all the webs and was really helpful. Thank you for everything.
Carl was very helpful personable. I would like him as my technician again.
Ricardo is the absolute best! I hope he's our regular technician moving forward.
very polite
Oswaldo did a great job. He has serviced my home several times and I highly recommend. He respect property and is thorough
They are always on time and they back it up with their warranty. They are very reliable.
Nice guy, explains everything.
My technician is Bruno. He was really nice and explained the procedure and answered all my questions. All the stuff they use is pet friendly and really works! Thanks Bruno.
Great job explaining what was going on. Very personable.
He did a good job.
Excellent service, got rid of all the spiders webs from the roof and gutters and patio furniture. Sprayed for miscellaneous ants, and bugs I cannot name. Installed a box for the rodents. They were on time, friendly and efficient.
Courteous and efficient.
Michael was awesome! Courteous and professional.
friendly and knowledgeable
The service guy did an amazing job today. He showed up at a good time and did the job fast and informed me on what he did.
Corvin did awesome job. He is knowledgeable, kind, friendly & wonderful person. He explained what he is going to do.
Did a Fantastic job. Thank you so much. Next quarter please send same technician.
Cover all the bases and a good after action report.
Very friendly and capable. Excellent service!
Thank you so much, Rodrigo! I just returned home, and I really appreciate how you avoided any spray contacting our three wooden gates as requested. Great job!🙌🏻
Ricardo was very helpful and explained in detail the services he was providing. He was very professional and respectful.
This was the first time we used Moxie for our pest control. We had a mom and pop company for the past twenty years, but once it was sold to a big corporation, their service went downhill. Moxie definitely exceeded our expectations! I would be happy to refer them to family and friends! Good job guys, way to go!
Thank you Dylan for explaining everything in detail for the mosquito extermination.
Excellent service. Tech was knowledgable & professional. Much appreciated!!!
Great service, reliable, nice service technician.
I watched from upstairs and I’m a little confused why my plants were sprayed, including the herbs I use to cook, instead of the bottom edges of my house.
Edwin did a complete and thorough job today. And answered my questions re: rodent control.
Working with Jennifer on the phone to schedule appointments and relay specific areas that require attention is a pure joy. She is most helpful and exudes a cheerful, pleasant, and professional phone demeanor. Will and another technician came out to spray for ants, ticks, flees, and spiders. They were very…
Service was not done. Technician just left after showing up but did not perform any service at all in our backyard or front and sides of the house.
With this horrible heat and humidity we are experiencing, we needed an extra flea treatment done outside. Chris did great, covering all the necessary areas.
Eric is incredible! Very Knowledgable, helpful, and went above and beyond to service our home!
James at Moxie provided a thorough quarterly treatment. I like that I get confirmation of my appointments and when they will be at our home so I know to keep my dog inside. It also gives me a chance to check their work since I’m usually not home when the service is being done. I’d recommend Moxie, they do good work.
I have always been hesitant to use any pest control service. But the home I recently bought. Was built in the 1980’s and sat empty for quite some time (years). It had had rats in the garage and a mouse nest in the attic when I moved in. The yard had LOTS of spiders, lizards and other critters that i did not want…
Every tech has been courteous and thorough in treating my home!
Carl did a nice job for our regular service. Thank you!!
I don’t know how effective the treatments will be because I’ve only just had them done . The technicians that came were extremely thorough and appeared to do an excellent job. Very polite and well mannered.
Very very good service!! Very nice guy! He even got rid of all spider webs!! Love this company! Thank you Oliver for such a thorough job!!
The guys were polite, courteous and thorough. It was a positive experience!!😊
The service technician was thorough and professional, much better than the much larger company we used previously.
Always happy with Moxie’s service and Kainoa did a great job with my quarterly service.
Carl was awesome.
Corvin and Moxie Pest are great.
Ag was very efficient and answered all my concerns. I'm very pleased with the job done.
Dylan did a great job, completed everything I asked him to do.
2024- Super impressed with Moxie so far. I’ve had pest control service for 20 years and have never received this high level of service from any of the other companies I’ve used in the past. From the knowledgeable honest sales professional, Josh, who initially called on me to Andrew, the service tech that did my…
Our Technician Abraham was extremely professional, courteous and thorough. He did an outstanding job, I hope he is assigned for future service at our home!
After 1 year of service I called before the last month to make sure it doesn't get renewed....two months later I'm still getting charged monthly fees. This is sneaky tactics. Avoid at all costs.
First pest treatment was fast, unobtrusive, and a breeze. Highly recommend it
Kai was awesome ! He was thorough in treatment and taking care of the place. A professional and courteous scholar he is. Would love to have him come back as he is cheerful and wonderful to talk to.
I have a regular maintenance service done and the services techs are always very thorough.
Rob did an excellent, thorough, knowledgeable job. He is a great asset to the Moxie company.
Thanks, Francisco!
Eliminated spiders. Professional, personable, responsive service techs.
He is punctual.He explained what he is doing and what to expect after. Cleaned the cobweb around the house. Very professional.
Had requested to come back out because and special treat because we had some ants in kitchen. Company is great about coming back out if any issues. Worker was fantastic...all their workers are very friendly and accommodating. We are very pleased with Moxie and especially their employees.
This technician listen to our concerns about getting bites in our backyard and looked at the whole yard for a solution. As a result we felt heard and respected by this technician. So far no bites.
We just had a routine service with Kevin from Moxie . Kevin is great . He took the time to explain thoroughly what he did . He replaced the bait from 4 out of 6 boxes which showed activities on rats, refilled bucket for mosquitoes. Power spay the insects on the lawn. Clean the webs from the eaves . We are very with Kevin & can’t wait to see the results.
I was satisfied with Christophers’’ thoroughness and attention to detail. Steve E
We had a problem with ants and spiders in the yards. I spent a lot of money on ant and spider spray until I used Moxie. I haven't seen even one ant or spider. I would highly recommend them!
The inspection and quality service was awesome!
Great care and knowledgeable
«::A::» «::W::» «::E::» «::S::» «::O::» «::M::» «::E::» Very thorough, effective and friendly Thank You
Thank you, Moxie, for keeping our yard and home pest free! Always professional; their technicians are so nice and always let us know what they have done. If we have any issues, they will come back any time.
Had our first home pest control and I am very happy with the professionalism and how everything was electronic and easy. We will be treating for mosquito monthly and quarter for the rest of the pests. Will update review as we go but so far so good.
Always very polite. Just wondering why he left every piece of furniture upside down? When I came outside I thought a hurricane had gone through....No big deal, but shouldn't he put them back rightside up??
You ca trust Moxie Pest Control. We had a spider infestation and they eradicate it completely. Kevin is pleasant, patient, and very efficient.
I’ve used Moxie for almost 5 years and have been very happy with the results. Very friendly technicians and they come back whenever requested if you see additional pest activity. Highly recommend.
Very courteous and thorough
Very typical for Moxie. Very personable and professional. Service was done efficiently and quickly and he kept me informed along the way. Good job!
Great service and very thorough.
James was professional, punctual and thorough
Ricardo was super friendly and professional. Thank you so much!
Oliver, "Ollie"; did a great job today. He listened to and addressed our concerns.
Very friendly and helpful
Ollie was extremely polite to both my wife and I. It’s nice to ask to have something taken care of and it was met with a resounding “sure, I can take care of that”. Way different than our last company. When we asked for the same things as we did with Ollie, we got a completely different response. Moxie is the best.
Carl did an excellent and very thorough job of spraying in and around my home, as well as brushing off webs. I'd like to have him do my service all the time.
Very professional and efficient! Knew his job and kept the owner well informed as his work progressed. I have contracted with Moxie several years now and am pleased to continue to do so.
Carl sprayed and cleaned off any spiderwebs. Good job.
To a gentleman who came for the first service were very polite and thorough. They looked professional and courteous. I am pleased with their service.
AD and Michael were professional and pleasant!
Very nice and respectful technician, also knowledgeable. Thank you so much.
Rodrigo was very professional and thorough with the pest control service. He also took the time to listen to my concerns and follow up on my requests. Excellent service! AAA+++
Thank you for the quick and thorough job!
This was our first visit with Moxie, and it was a great introduction to the company. George G. was friendly, professional, and respectful throughout the service appointment. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made us feel comfortable with the process. We are looking forward to seeing the results and…
Jamie completed my service on Friday. JJ did an excellent job. I am extremely pleased with the service - he provided for the inside of my home. He was professional, polite and very helpful. Thank you for providing exceptional service, greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Jamie for future services for my home on a…
James was very nice and did a great job!
Very informative and kind
The gentleman was kind and helpful. He finished quickly and efficiently.
It was shared with him that we are having lots of trouble with ants and he worked hard to help with that. Really appreciate is attention to detail.
Sean did a great job today! Deserves a Holiday Bonus!
They are very responsive when asked to repeat a missed treatment, ( because I forgot to leave my gate unlocked.) Seem very thorough, too. Have used them 3 years and have very fewbug issues.
Very professional and helpful!!
These guys go above and beyond.When it comes to customer service, everyone over the phone from scheduling.The appointment to the technician that came out was more than polite and very professional. I got a great deal on a year long contract with a great warranty, very reasonably priced.And they came out next day after , I called. Highly recommend
He checked in with me when finished and gave updates on treated areas. Very thorough!
Johnathan arrived on time. He thoroughly went over what was going to be completed for the first visit and future visits. Johnathan was knowledgeable and explained the treatment in an east to understand manner.
Our technician was prompt, neat, experienced and thorough.
Professional work done
Had Moxie pest control for a while, this is our second home with them. They are great professional, detailed staff is friendly and responsive. Our Tech, Christopher is professionally and friendly, always ready to answer my questions. Two thumbs up!
Great service, very through and detailed. Extremely friendly .
I have been a member with Moxie for many years now and have even included their service for our home in Arizona. Since having Moxie I’ve had no spiders, ants, termites, fleas or other pests in our two homes, patio and yards. The Moxie specialists both inside the office and outside are so kind and go out of their way…
He let me know when he arrived, but I did not realize that he left and I wanted to ask if the bait boxes in the backyard were changed out. I don’t know if they are changed every time or just when they need it.
Issac did a very good job for us. He was friendly and knew what he was doing.
I was completely satisfied with the service I received today
Service person did a thorough job. e.g. clears webs from trellis areas. much better than previous service company
We started using Moxie last year because I simply could not handle another spider season in Aliso Viejo. My trauma from the first two was intense - I had to keep a broom by the door and go to war every morning just to get off my porch. I wasn't really expecting much, maybe for it to help a little if at all, but to…
Oliver was a very thorough technician. Moxie always has great service!
Orion was very nice, listened to my concerns and understood my questions.
Kai was very attentive and explained everything, Addressed all concerns quickly. Kai was a great technician,
Very thorough. Great work
Thank you AG for your thorough inspection and attention to detail. Your pleasant and professional demeanor was appreciated.
Excellent Quarterly Service performed by Oliver at our home today.
Oliver, the technician, did a great job!
I have had Moxie service for years. I can always depend on Moxie and their excellent technicians for great products and work ethic! JJ is an outstanding employee and I would love to have him service my home every time! Thank you, Karen
Great service! Was extremely friendly and went over everything with me and offered to come back if I had any problems.
Perfect. Very happy with Ivan. Professional and courteous. Completed all service I asked for. Great job.
I have no problem with ants inside my house so that is a good thing. I did notice the hap-hazard way the solution was sprayed, some being on the walls of the house. I need to ask you to stop spraying for snails. I only have the good kind in my yard; grasshoppers are another matter. Do you have a spray for them??
Technician Ollie was helpful in treating all areas outside of home as well as in the garage. He was very thorough and identified all the chemicals that were used in the treatment. Very courteous and professional in every way. Grateful for his service.
Andrew was very friendly and advised me of the treatment he was doing today. Very satisfied with his work.
Zac was very professional and efficient. He has done our pest control service before and always does a good job. Thank you Zac for another job well done.
Excellent
Isaac Hazier did an excellent and tidy job. He also answered all my questions. He is a great young man!! Marion Hartwich, 1894 Tustin Ave. Costa Mesa, CA
Technician arrived promptly and took his time to thoroughly treat our property. He was friendly and we are pleased to have switched providers.
Thanks for the awesome customer service Zan
Nelson was a wonderful guy! He cared for personal property and listened to our concerns and addressed them during the visit. Great customer service from this encounter. Thanks Nelson!!!
Orion did a great job!! Answered all our questions, was super super nice and professional, and did a thorough job all around. Highly recommend!
All good with James, however, all Moxie tech's need to double check that the gates are closed and latched. Both gates were left ajar. No worries, since I always check when I lock the gates.
Very professional encounter, left me feeling much more at peace living in my home
Aldo Mena was my technician today, he did an outstanding job.
The day after his work, I found 2 dead bugs on the floor...made me happy!!
Ollie was terrific - very efficient and polite!
Just received a great service from Robert Flores. He was very thorough and professional young man .. He explained everything in detail and when He completed the job.. I am always impressed with the great job these professionals provide. He did a great job as always. I recommend Moxie anytime..
Robert Flores did a great job! Thank you!

Andrew was attentive & conscientious. He listened to my concerns & then went about with a very thorough service. Thank you
Excellent service. Knowledgeable and diligent technician
Alex was great! On time and very professional!!
Moxie always does great. Orion did an outstanding job on site. He covered the entire property for pest. This was also a last minute call in which they accommodated. TY Moxie.
They are a great company, keep you informed of up-coming visits, and the approx. time when the technician will be arriving at your home via text. They do really well at keeping your property free of little critters, any issues after their visit you call and they come right away.
Came on time, very thorough, and a nice guy.
All the employees that service our home always do an exceptional job, very polite and conscientious while taking care of our home. MOXIE is a wonderful company, exceptional employees and they truly care about their customers!! I still give them 💯+ exceptional. Reliable, kind, respectful, understanding with truly phenomenal service!! Lori W.
Moxie is always on time and/or flexible to the customers’ schedule. Sean is courteous detail-oriented and very professional! He is one of the best Moxie crew!👍
Sean was attentive and responsive to my requests for this remedial service. He appeared prepared and familiar with what I was asking for. He completed the work promptly.
THE ISSUE IS CANCELLING SERVICE!! OMG!! THEY'RE LIKE A CULT THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO GET OUT OF! THEY WON'T CANCEL. YOU LITERALLY HAVE TO BE CURT & FIRM TO THE POINT OF RIDULOUS! NOT MY STYLE OF DOING BUSINESS WITH A SERVICE COMPANY! TOO MANY OTHER PEST CONTROL COMPANIES THAT GVE GOOD SERVICE & LESS $$$. CHOICES MY…
Isaac arrived at our residence at 5:45pm in the rain. I don't think this was an appropreate day or time for a pet control treatment.
Today we had Nikolas Stow service our home. He was great and will get us additional sticky mice traps delivered to our house. He was so professional discussing our issues with both me and my husband! Thank you Nikolas!
He was great and his service was perfect!
The technician was prompt, friendly and efficient. Very personable and clear in explanations.
Great job. Very friendly and proficient.
Very nice! Thank you.
When the Moxie technician (Marco) arrived I pointed out the primary issue we have with spiders and he inspected our front and back yards and the garage interior before beginning his work. He removed all spider webs from the entry area and around all exterior light fixtures. We also have spiders around the handles of…
Great job.
Stephen was my technician today. Very experienced, didn't make any complaints about the hot weather, just checked everything, and added some suggestions. He did the follow up work on the mice boxes.. Please thank him again for me. Sincerely, Pam Burdi. Thank you, Pam Burdi
Your representative was efficient. We are in agreement that all future services should include the eradication of the white flies.
Service was thorough and efficient, technician was knowledgeable and arrived on time.
The service was performed quickly. Technicians were courteous and explained what treatment was performed and if we had any questions.
The technician seemed to be in a hurry. He was only here 10 to 15 minutes after he rang the doorbell. To be fair, he may have done some work prior to that. He haphazardly sprayed under the eaves and got some of the spray on the windows which we recently had washed.
Great service and friendly technician. He did an amazing job! Thank you!
We've been clients of Moxie for several years now. They do an excellent job getting rid of all kinds of bugs..All their representatives are professional and thorough. We would highly, highly recommend them. Thank you for your outstanding service.
Technician was the most thorough, and hardworking guy period! Adrian did an extensive termite inspection and knew his stuff! Felt like we couldn't get a better more thorough inspection and we appreciated it.
Excellent service, on time, very friendly, professional technician.
After the 1st tech on Tuesday claimed gates to the back yard were locked - they weren't, so the job was incomplete - Moxie offered to reschedule for another day. Ozzy and another tech completed the job, informed me of an ant trail they had treated, and gave me the form indicating what had been used, etc. Professional, efficient, and pleasant.
Great company to work with!!! Responsive; professional; considerate; stands behind their work. Will always use and highly recommend them to friends, colleagues and family. Victor Rocks!!!
The tech that came today (am) was a great tech. Knowledgeable, friendly, punctual. Very satisfied
Nice to have the spider webs, from the very high eaves, gone! This is something that I'm not able to do myself. Thank you!
Stephen was excellent. Very friendly, respectful of the property and thorough. Moxie is the best!
Where do you get these people? They are all consistently professional and thorough. Oswaldo is one more example. He was personable, professional and conscientious. I have been using Moxie services for more than 16 months and have always had a different tech perform the service. They all have been good. The quality…
He was thorough and courteous.
he did a great job, and it was very complete...he performed a couple of things we asked him to do on the spot. Thank you!
