Christian is always so professional and helpful. Thank you for always helping us out.
Personable conscientious workers
Technician came and did not explain well. We asked him to spray on top ceilings of all rooms. He stated he could not do that. He did not put sticker traps as well. Other technician before him came and explained well what he did and put the traps. It seemed technician did it so fast that he was ready to get out of the place.
First inital visit was great! Robert Guzman was thorough with the inspection and even sprayed for insects when we initially requested assistance with rodents. Came on time and had great communication skills. Happy to have Orkin to help my mom while I live put of town. I look forward to their help with the rodent…

The service tech (Diego) was helpful and professional. I really appreciated the way he explained the Orkin process, and also showed me the trouble spot around my home with solutions.
Tech was extremely helpful to get traps Set for rodents and close up any potential entry holes in the wall.
Great job! Very efficient!
Great work first class
Roberto was excellent. He was very knowledgeable, professional and kind. He listened to my concerns and went above and beyond. I had used other pest control services in the past in my previous homes and stopped them because they did a below average job. I was very pleased and highly recommend. A little pricey though.
Great service professional takes time out to discuss any concerns . Spends a good amount of time treating areas around my home.
Quality work and really good customer service. Would highly recommend

Orkin is one of the highest rated for best control and I feel they have my and the houses’s best interest working to keep the structure safe. I appreciated their time and efforts. Jason and Martin have been first class in caring and follow through with their services and more.

Angel (Miguel) is the best! He’s always on time and always asks what’s been going on at our house so he can customize the treatment. He remembers my kids names even; I feel like that’s unheard of these days. We’ve used him for years now and will continue to as long as he’s in business. Top notch customer service, I…
