Kris is our technician. She is VERY courteous, and prompt. She does what exterminators do, spraying here and there. If she sees something that needs attention, she mentions it. Her truck is always clean, she doesn’t smell like bug spray. We live insect free, and in New Mexico, there’s always the fear of scorpions.…
