Amazing timely service! Maria is great!!
Great experience!
Very competent
Great efficient service. Friendly professional workers who listen to your issues and then explain the steps they plan to solve the problem. I love how if something comes up in-between my next service appointment, they will return ASAP, at no additional charge. Kudos to the whole Orkin team.
I was able to schedule an appointment quickly to start working on the issue with yellow jackets in the yard. I am confident that the problem will be resolved.
I’m extremely happy with my Orkin service. They have completely eliminated my spider and ant issues. Our technicians are very communicative and professional and always ask if there are problem areas. I’d recommend them to anyone who uses a regular extermination service.
I had questions and Francisco explained to me in detail my concerns. I’m extremely satisfied with his service,
Francisco was great on last visit Secured holes and cracks from critters & very attentive
Jose was great and knowledgeable. He is always fast as I work from home and the sound of the machine is loud. He's always been very considerate.
Outstanding, thorough, courteous and willing to work hard to solve the problem
