Very professional service and kindness in their approach instilling confidence and reliability. I am impressed with the responsiveness and how fortunate I was to be seen quickly. Conner and Christian were both a true pleasure to have in my home helping me with the pesky rodents prior to the approaching cold weather rush. Highly recommended!
Conner did a very thorough job. Knowledgeable and professional.
A great company that knows the business and customers!
Awesome service very precise and knowledgeable on what they are doing great service

so helpful and had so much empathy for my situation, marcella and Bryan were absolutely amazing!! they knew exactly how to help and how to support me in my time of need!!
The person who has been treating my house for pests is Zoe. He is such a friendly person, very easy to like. He does a thorough job and has been able to rid my house of mice and keep other pests at bay.
Great service. Very knowledgeable. Would recommend to anyone needing pest services.
I am very optimistic that they'll find the mice
They are always great at letting me know when they’re coming, always on time, and very helpful.
Professional and helpful.
Services were delivered as expected for a first visit. Waiting to see how follow up visits play out.
Larry and Braden have been terrific. They are not just friendly and thorough, but also informative. And they are always willing to go the extra mile. *Hayden, too!
Orkin is great to work with to solved pest control at my house. Garrett is wonderful to work with. He helps work with me and finds solution.
In my experience, Orkin is the best place to go for all your pest control needs. They’ve been coming to my home since we bought it, over 7 years ago and to our house in Nevada before that. All of their representatives have been professional, kind, and good at their job. You really can’t ask for more. Don’t be fooled…
Lee did a thorough and professional job. He impressed me with his knowledge of different spiders that we found. He found areas that needed attention and doubled up on the applications to address the need inside and outside. Especially for spiders. He also eliminated two wasp’s nests. He quickly took ownership to…
Always comes and take care of my pest control needs. Even if there is an “additional” pest problems as there was today. Very good service. Jesse sprayed for all the dozens of wasps and I truly appreciated that. Still highly recommend them
I have been using Orkin for years now, always a great job, great service.
Travis was very attentive to details and helpful addressing out concerns.
Always on time, efficient in taking care of our pests quickly so we can get on with our day.
Very responsive and professional. The mosquito treatment is a must in our backyard and is very effective.
Service was excellent the technician was very professional kind and courteous!
The technician was very knowledgeable and explained everything very well. She sprayed for bugs. Very pleasant experience so far
Tech came on time. We have gofers in our backyard and can’t wait to get rid of them. Hopefully this works
Always professional. Very good communications. Results are good.
Ray is such a kind man he is very respectful and he did an amazing job
Vince did our service(Orkin) and was completely professional and thorough. He answered all my questions and concerns with respect and went to work on them. He really went above and beyond. I hope we get Vince back for our regular service every time. Editing my review from 5 stars to 2. Orkin as a business is a…
I moved into a rental property a few months ago. Unfortunately after I moved in I discovered a significant insect problem. Elder bugs. They literally swarm in through the tiny openings that drain water on your window frame. Once in you see them crawling on everything, everywhere! Then I noticed THE SPIDER!! I'm…
Preston, is always professional and very polite and very helpful in my problem with cockroches and he is the only one I would like to come to my home as I feel comfortable with him to do the proper job to provide and protect my property. Today, as usual, Preston took very good care of my needs. I have new…
We've been using Orkin to maintain a bug free home, and it's been quick and painless to have them come by every other month and check/refill traps and treatments. Hayden is friendly and professional and we love him as our Orkin guy.
Very friendly and explain the procedure in finding the gophers. Very accommodating.
excellent technicians
Super nice and did a really good job! Helped spray my house for spiders and earwigs. He even took down some wasp nest I didn’t know I had.
Very kind, courteous and helpful.
Lee, is my tech he is awesome he is very thorough and does a terrific job he very knowledgeable also.I've had other tech's they were good but Lee go's above and beyond.
Always friendly
Oh, I like the professional experience I get each time I call and schedule somebody to come out. I always have the same technician which is nice because I understand that person and they understand me. They are also familiar with the battle that I’m having with intruders how many times Versus the norm. Our…
Brayden was extremely thorough. He was very knowledgeable and covered all areas of concern. Any questions we had were answered quickly and intelligently. Plus, he had a great sense of humor!
The guys was great answered all my questions. Was a little late. However it was not a problem.
Very thorough and professional.
We had Keleaf Lee come out and inspect and spray for us. He was amazing and this company is very professional. Absolutely loved our experience and can’t wait to continue service with them!
We were happy with the work done
Larry explained every aspect of pest management. Very knowledgeable.
Follow up visit. Thorough and professional. Thanks.
Good service. Friendly and professional.
Spencer is the best.
Thumbs up all the way.
The exterminator is very friendly and knowledgeable. He is very willing to check out any concerns I have. Gives me a peace of mind.
Orkin responded quickly to my call even though it was right after the holiday break. On top of that, they were able to get a technician over to my house the next day. The service was professional and efficient and all my questions were answered.
I called to make arrangements for someone to come out to my condo. I had caught 6 mice over the course of 2 mo. That is 6 too many. 3 were in the last 3 1/2 wks. I have a parrot but it’s been out of my house for a month. Orkin was able to come out the next day and the window period was just 2 hours! Tony arrived…
spencer was the best , setup traps , took care of the dead mouse , clogged up some entry points , checked in areas we had concerns abt such as under the couch , gave us some extra traps and told us to text him anytime we needed him . very reassuring and easy to talk to .
Raphael is amazing! He comes in is personal, is educated and knows his stuff. We had a mouse and he took the old trap and replaced it with a new one. Gave me tips on how to prevent it and was so kind! Love having Orkin in our home!
John was awesome. Highly recommended.
Keleas was on time very friendly and he got the job done. I recommend this company to anyone that has rodent problem.
They guarantee service or they will show up again if there are issues. Otherwise they come once every two months. It took me the entirety of the two months to finally get ahold of some one to come out as we still had a spider issue. I called, was promised someone would reach out to schedule an appointment; this…
Used this company because of a bad several bug infestation. They quarantine their work.
I’ve enjoyed working with Orkin for the most part. It started out a bit bumpy because of some staffing issues, which is why I put in 4 stars. I also didn’t feel like the initial house inspection was as thorough as it could have been. But my past few services have been great. Super easy, punctual, quick. And I…
The best part of your service is mainly due to Kevin. He is respectful, knowledgeable and very pleasant to work with. 😊
Fantastic customer service, very professional, extremely knowledgeable. 10/10
He was quick, thorough, and efficient but bad at math leading to a wrong cost quote.
Kevin is a great guy! I prefer Orkin over all others, seems local companies aren't as communicative and their formula less powerful than Orkin. Some scheduling issues sometimes but hopefully it's gonna be nipped in the bud in the coming sessions.
Arkadiusz Kolodziej is very knowledgeable, professional and has treated our house and yard for spiders and pests. Wish I had started using Orkin earlier. He quickly resolved all our pest problems. I would highly recommend him. Thanks!
Kent is always willing to make sure I am not bothered by bugs or mice.
They helped us solve an extensive mouse problem we had 4 years ago when moving into our new home. They spent hours looking for the problem areas and soon the problem was resolved completely. Since then they have come every few months to spray etc and we never have spiders or other bugs in the house. They are…
They did a great job, were courteous & answered all my questions.
Carter was very professional and knowledgeable he answered all my questions and helped me understand where the problems were originating from. I will be referring Orkin and carter for future customers.
Not happy with Orkin just showing up without notifying me, like today (2/17/22) Outside, front yard service performed - Want prorated pricing!
We’ve been using Orkin for years! They do a great job and the staff is always friendly and courteous. I would highly recommend them.
Orkin has been great. Very reasonable prices, professional technicians, always very flexible to work around our schedule to be at our house when we are gone. I highly recommend them.
Technician Was supposed to contact us to tell us he was coming and he did not. He arrived and did a treatment that we did not request that required us to water outside our house and keep our dog Off the area where he spread chemical pebbles without telling us he was going to do this. I will be looking for another service to replace Orkin
I called they were here on inspection.talk & Ashley did a wonderful job I'm not seeing mice that's great keep doing a great job thanks
Excellent customer service! I wanted to commend my service tech Vince for a great job. He was mindful of my requests and needs and went the extra mile.
The technicians are always very professional. I appreciate their knowledge and job expertise. Orkin does an awesome job!
Fairly decent service. Bit overpriced for commercial. Techs are vocal conspiracy theorist covid deniers. So if that's your kind of thing then this is the company for you. As for us, we will be seeking an alternative contract elsewhere.
My technician Vince is really good at spraying areas that really bad. He is very polite. He is very thoughtful of our needs.
Fast and professional
Have been professional and efficient in their service. Communication is good (this is a property I manage) but there have been times when the auto scheduling system doesn’t do a very good job. Overall very satisfied.
Best bug and pest
The tech wasn't any more sure than I am that I have mice, since the indications that I have experienced haven't been very clear or specific. However, whatever is there, I think in the walls, needs to be eradicated. He put down some traps and sealed two entrances that mice could enter through, one under my sink and…
Great company. I use them mostly for the Box Elder bugs and they definitely help. The lack of other pests was just a bonus for me. Any time I call they are quick to respond and their techs are great.
These technicians have been awesome!! I had an awful Rat problem. They all went above & beyond to take care of this issue!!
They are concern about being helpful towards getting our house back from the spiders and ect. They call way in advance or text, which really wonderful. And they are very clean.
James is the best service technician that we have had at any of of our over the last 45 years. Too bad that you are losing him.
Jim with Orkin has been servicing our property for almost 3 years now and does an amazing job. We use Orkin seasonal and wouldn't use anyone else. They are the best!!
Horrible service hired to get rid of gophers and was told if they could not get rid of them that they would refund our money. That was a lie it has been a year so plenty of time to get rid of them and they are still an issue. Asked for our money back and they refused. So when they tell you money back guarantee its a lie. Never use Orkin
The 1st guy that came out to my place did amazing job. I found mouse droppings under my sub Floor in two of my rooms and the first room got clean up properly. In the 1st Room the guy came out twice and was thorough about it both times. The 2nd Room a different guy came out and did a horrible job. There were so…
Great Service!!!
They are always super friendly and professional and are very good at letting you know when they will be there and sticking to their time frames. Great company in my opinion.
James with Orkin is very thorough and has done a great job to rid our home of mice and keep it that way.
On time. Thorough. Personable and professional.
Always have on time great service.
They were very professional, friendly and on time. They took the time to look all through the house and to explain every thing in detail. Our technician was Hayden and he did a fabulous job. We're very satisfied with our experience.
Best price and always willing to come back if we see the pests in between visits. They’re always nice to my curious 3 year old boy, too!
We’ve been using Orkin for years and I’ve always been happy with their work. They’re very accommodating, professional and thorough.
Chris, the service tech, is awesome and always willing to work with my schedule. They do an amazing job and I can always rely on them to come back out if I have any issues.
Very nice inspector, grateful for his help. However, when I was showing him where I could see sunlight from the outside that he could fill, he made it sound like pulling all of the insulation and finding those holes would be too much work. We are just waiting for a follow up visit within 10 days.
It was helpful. Exterminator was polite
Absolutely love this company and especially my serviceman Kent. Always on time and courteous. Have not had any pest or bug problem they haven't solved.
Our tech, Kent, does an outstanding job!
The service tech was very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. We are just getting started but I feel confident that Orion will be able to solve my rodent problem. I’ve tried to get rid of them on my own but they are just tearing up my grass. I’m excited to have some professional help.
Jim and Hayden were beyond professional, especially in today’s pandemic environment, and friendly with their service. I truly hope they are the technicians for all of my follow up scheduled visits because of how wonderful they were!!
