I really enjoy when Jim does come to service my home he does his job and does it well.
Will, my Orkin technician is always polite, professional and efficient. He does a very thorough job.
Jim is always courteous of our time and of any problems that we may have. Of the 15 yrs or so of being an Orkin customer, he’s by far the best technician we have had.
Josh was very knowledgeable, friendly, and answered all of my questions. Treatment was quick and thorough.
Jimmy does an excellent job when he comes to spray our house and yard every other month. He is always very friendly and efficient.

So kind and respectful every time he…
Carl has serviced our properties for several years and has always done an exemplary job. He does not rest until every problem is solved and the customer is completely satisfied. I highly recommend Carl for your pest control needs.
Great to work with, took care of the issue and haven’t had a problem since! Carl is always polite and professional.
The Orkin service applicator, Jim Petersen, is personable, respectful, & knowledgeable. Plus the mosquito treatment is effective.
When we moved outside the city we started encountering bugs and critters that were not welcome in our new home. We started monthly services with Orkin and haven't had a problem since. Our regular guy, Carl, is awesome! Friendly, efficient, and keeps us in the know on other services, but isn't a pushy salesman…
Byron Campbell was great to deal with.
Cory Sinnwell is always very friendly and gets the job done in a timely manner.
