Andres and Nate from Orkin did a great job sealing holes in the walls and covering openings outside my house. They completed the work in a timely manner and answered every question I had. They clearly explained the problems they found and how they were going to address them. I really appreciated their…

It was easy to make an appointment with Orkin and servicing was prompt. I appreciated my technician, Mike Salem, who analyzed how serious my problem was (turned out to be a small issue), what basic services Orkin provided and what came at additional costs. It was helpful to get his honest assessment so that I could…

He’s been with the company, I think he said only since last year, so not too long. But you can tell from the information he shared with my family that his knowledge about pest control and…
