Called Orkin for help with yellow jackets getting inside my house and large activity by our chimney. Brian the tech came the same day. Found inside filtration was coming from sky light. Activity by chimney appeared to be by flashing and shingle. Suggested to have one of their inspectors come out. Tanner came the…

Jordan is Great! I’m so afraid of bugs and he came twice so far. I can noticeably tell the difference with him and Orkin being here. I’ve tried other companies like Mint, but Orkin has 100% been the best route. Very thankful and hope to only have Jordan continue doing our services.

Good first visit. Technician Chance was very knowledgeable and very professional. He seemed to quickly grasp my concerns and issues with previous pest control firms. Application went well and I did not smell any odor nor see any residual product once application dried. I will keep an eye on the basement especially to see if any critters still active.
