We just started service with Pioneer. The initial service was scheduled quickly. We had a very bad issue with fruit flies that we couldn’t eliminate ourselves.

7/8/26…Received our bimonthly charge from Dave’s not Pioneer. Protested as we thought we had been scammed only to learn that Dave’s is buying Pioneer. We received no notice from Pioneer. of this. To make things worse, our service man neglected to call us before he arrived so he could not access our back…

Lawn tech stated he would be back to put dow granular fertilizer in 2 or 3 weeks from last visit. To get to a 5 star that follow up needs to happen this week. Liquid fertilizer has short term effects and the deep greening I seek has come and gone already. I’m not dissatisfied at all. The yard looks good but I feel…

I have tried most of the other companies... they all made promises, but my yard has suffered from their failure to deliver on their promises. I was given the recommendation for Pioneer Pest Services by my dental hygenist. So I called to have them look at my yard. Austin, there sales rep arrived early and gave me…

They are very professional and reliable. I haven’t had any issues with any outdoor pests since I hired them.
Jacob has been treating my home for a number of years. He's always pleasant to work with, professional and informative if i had questions. He is also very accommodating on time that works with my crazy schedule.
I was frustrated with the condition of my lawn and areas of brown spots until Fredo Muniz, Field Trainer visited my home. It stemmed from my irrigation system that needed adjusting and repositioning. Mr. Muniz years of experience and expertise allowed him to immediately identify the issue. We both discussed an…
We have used Pioneer Pest Control for the past 8 years and have always been pleased. Jacob does a great job as well as all the technicians.
I have consistently use this company for over a year now. They have killed thousands of dollars worth of Landscape and when new management started they promised this would not happen again, however, now my yard is dying and they are tons of Dollar weeds. I have been paying for service to keep it immaculate, but they…
Jacob did a great job explaining the services he was doing and why, and my house is bug-free, as it always has been since we switched to Pioneer Pest Services.
UPDATE: I don't write many reviews, but after this mornings phone call from Pioneer Pest telling my account is on hold for non payment of services. I had to hold back the laughter, look at these photos and ask me what services they withheld? So after 18 months, look how great my lawn looks...NOT! I had…
Pioneer Pest really is the best in Volusia County. They have great staff who is always willing to help and explain what they are doing, or when they can come out. I use them for lawn pest and weed control. My lawn and others who use Pioneer are the best looking in the neighborhood. Their field technician, Jonathan…
We’d moved into a new home and found the previous owner had left us a flea problem as well as a ton of garbage. We regularly and always on time use flea and tick prevention for our 5 cats and 3 dogs, who quickly became infested with fleas within a day or two of moving in. Called pioneer and set up a consult. They…
