Jim Peterson was my exterminator. He was very friendly, professional, and put up with all my questions.
Jim does a great job and is always on time and professional.
Chris Rose is great! He is very helpful and patient
This is my 3rd extermination, our exterminator, Jim, did a great job. He had also done our first/big extermination and it was really helpful. No bugs have been back! I really appreciate the kindness and the thoroughness used when doing his job, thank you!
We have had great service with Orkin. Our Orkin Pro Jim Peterson is very helpful with answering my questions and he responds in a timely manner.
Jimmy does an excellent job when he comes to spray our house and yard every other month. He is always very friendly and efficient.
Craig Bassett is nice and easy going. Takes corective criticism well.
Carl Shulka is excellent! He explains everything to you based on your needs and is prompt, professional, and courteous. Highly recommend!
Alia Gale is amazing and very pleasant to work with. Great worker and very detailed.
Byron Campbell was great to deal with.
They did exactly what I can do and charged $112 dollars to look at my chairs and my beds
Friendly
We had someone come out to check for BB an was told it would cost a thousand dollars to treat a 200 square ft room. 🤔 early stages of infestation. Took the deposit an ran, was told over the phone the services we be some where in the range of 200 dollars. Their a bunch of con artist.
Always have professional and polite service workers who arrive in a timely manner with all the solutions and answers to questions on how to prevent and ward off pesky field mice, gnats, and spiders.
Sean was a real sweetheart! He was polite and very thorough.
They came for 5 minutes then recommended something from Amazon! I was told by other service providers none of it would work! Then was charged $100 for this 😡
I’m not sure if their computer system is flawed or if they are just lacking communication, but the last two weeks we have had to reschedule our service twice and THREE times have either missed the service due to being told the wrong date/time, or had the tech just not show up at all. Extremely inconvenient.
They have always come when I needed them to come to take care of the bedbug problem.
Great people!
