Jayden takes care of fumigating my apartment. I used to have what I feared was an infestation of German cockroaches, and for about 24 months now I have not seen a single bug. I had a problem and it was solved in professional fashion, excellent work!
Stephen showed up and described the whole process & the different kind of bugs in the area. He proceeded to do a thorough coverage of inside & outside of the property. He even cleaned behind the appliances. I am more than satisfied with Stephen & Orkin. I strongly recommend them to anyone looking for good…
