We’ve been customers for several years and have been very pleased with their service and our results.
I use PPC to routinely keep pests around my home at bay. Consistent in keeping my home free of pests.
Andrew arrived 20 minutes before his scheduled appointment time. He called me & sent me a text to let me know the day before and the day of. These guys moved boxes out the way plywood, crates, they got every single nook and cranny in side and outside ! This is a new house we just remodeled and the bugs were coming…
Bryan put my mind at ease and I decided to sign a quarterly contract with Preventive because of his professionalism and patience completing the inspection and providing the services today! Bryan was on time, knowledgeable, super thorough, and presented with wonderful mannerisms! Thank you Bryan for the job well done!!
I greatly appreciate and depend on Preventive Pest Control, and am so grateful they have not sold out to another company . They respond quickly and have a professional office staff and technicians.
Brian did a great job of communicating with me. He contacted me to let me know that he could arrive early and continued to give me updates regarding his ETA. He was very friendly and professional. He made sure to not leave any doors open, since I told him that I didn't want my cat to get out. (Also, he likes cats -…
In addition to the services I noted above, I had wood work done on my home that was damaged by termites. Logan did the termite inspection, and I was sent a detailed report. He did an excellent job. Jesse and Michael came, inspected, and sent me a detailed report and cost to repair the wood that was damaged by…
A great pest company! The communication is easy and they are very dependable. We’re able to rid our yard of ants in a short period!!
I love Preventative Pest control. Clint & all the staff are very friendly, they listen well to my concerns & really want to help solve my Pest issues. I would recommend them 10X’s over. In a society that does not always have integrity in business practices makes me appreciate all the more the ones that do.
I love the folks at Preventive Pest Control! They have been serving my home for YEARS and I haven’t had a serious any problem since they’ve been around. And on the off chance I even begin to notice an ant trail inside my home, one simple call or text to them and they will be right over to take care of the problem. These guys rock!
Their services are usually delivered professionally and almost perfectly. I do not have any ants problem inside my house any more. Thank you, the Preventive Pest Control...
Today was my first time using preventative pest service and Brian was fantastic! He did the most through job of any pest control technician I have ever used. I will definitely request Brian to complete my bi-monthly service. Thank you, Brian for taking care of my pest issues. You’re awesome!!! Teri Baxter
Having Preventive Pest Control come service my home monthly was the BEST decision we’ve made. We always had ants HORRIBLY every summer. I mean, so bad they would come out of the drains in the bathroom and no matter what we did, we couldn’t get rid of them. A friend referred us a few years ago and we have been ant…
Brian did a great job and was very thorough. I always get good service from the office and technicians that come out.
Good people, Good service
Preventive is the best pest control company I have used. John Mejia was friendly, knowledgeable and did a great job dealing with the ants. Also, their customer service always exceeds my expectations. I highly recommend.
friendly, courteous, and professional
Brian was awesome! He was knowledgeable, professional and really was patient and was so thorough. I love Preventive. Can’t imagine not using this company.
Do not wait to have Preventative Pest Control start like we did!!! We are now 6 month in and would normally have been fighting off ants like crazy in this heat and nothing! A neighbor strongly recommended Preventative Pest Control back in 2021 and I was to stubborn thinking I have this under control, but I just…
The rep who comes to our home is always courteous and respectful. They always ask if there are any problems that need special attention. I appreciate a call ahead from the company to remind me of my appt.
Sean was very friendly, professional and attentive!!
Super professional! Scheduling was incredibly smooth & the guy who came out to do the job was extremely professional and informative.
New customer here. Jovanni the technician was great, very professional, clear, and timely. Highly recommend !
Very professional. They are helpful and do a fantastic job.
We have been using them for almost 10 years. The work is done professionally. Their product is very safe for human and animals (dog & cat).
Excellent service
We’ve used Preventive Pest Control for over 17 years. I don’t even have to treat my pets for fleas because our yard never has them. They’re very friendly and helpful.
Larry was great.
Elliott came out and was very thorough. He took the time to answer my questions and offer input. Very professional and patient.
I have been with Preventive Pest for more than two decades. They provide excellent bi- monthly service and respond immediately to any emergencies. I highly recommend their service!
They are thorough I’m very pleased with our service
We've used Preventing for over 20 years, at this horse and our previous one. Both houses had different issues and Preventive could handle it all. They are so responsive; which is exactly what you want when ants are crawling on your ceiling. Great service!
Jovani stopped by our home today after we reported seeing a lot of pests inside recently. He was on time, professional and informative. As he sprayed throughout the house he kindly pointed out things we could fix around the house to help stop bugs from coming in. He offered some great solutions and is a very friendly guy! Great experience 10/10.
We are impressed with the In2Care mosquito traps which prevent mosquitoes from breeding. I didn’t get bitten in my backyard at all this year, unlike past years.
Jovani with Preventive Pest Control was very professional and informative
The staff is always professional and courteous. We no longer have an ant problem!
Quarterly spraying both outside and inside our property for preventive maintenance since 2013. Ruben is highly professional and is very accommodating with any special areas requiring more attention. We always ask for him whenever we need reservice. Great company, highly recommended!
Gabriel was very professional and friendly. He explains the process so you can understand how the treatment works. I have recommended this service to our neighbors. We have had the initial treatment and first quarterly one. So far we are very pleased with them.
We're having ant issues, like everyone else. We called a few companies and Preventive had the best price for a one-time spray. The service on the phone to schedule the appointment was excellent. Isaac came out during the window of time, as they stated. He was professional, very kind, and thorough. We love that…
Great job as always
I have pest control come out every other month to keep the ants & cockroaches away from the base of the house. They are reasonable and I don’t have to have a contract with them. The only thing I don’t like is that they have a big turnover and I very seldom get the same person twice. Which means I must be here to show them what I want done each time.
Technician Elliot was so nice really work on everything, inspected all ceilings to see bridges of them all over my yard !
I’ve used them for years. Very consistent.
Gabe was right on time and performed an extensive spraying and setting traps!
Great service and does a great job. Very attentive to our needs for spraying! Great company! Thank you Preventative Pest Control :) David & Peggy Carson
Great service all around!
This is what great service is supposed to look like.... always go the extra mile for their customers. I will use them forever
Joseph and Giovanni serviced my home today and they both did a great job! They were efficient, super friendly, and answered all my questions. It was a really great experience!
Your company has the best customer service. They listen and they resolve the problem. I worked with other company before and I wasn’t satisfied until I found your company and as soon as I called I feel that is it because the way that they answered to my call I feel that they understand me. Later on when I asked send…
Love Preventive and their associate that comes to my house is very very nice, knowledgeable and helpful. I have recommended Preventative to several friends that now also use their service
Very thorough. Even sprayed under all of the outdoor furniture.
Always a positive experience. They send me a reminder before coming out, they do a thorough job, very professional, very polite. The office staff are always polite and helpful as well. Preventive has serviced my home and 3 rental homes for several years now and I’ve been very happy with their service. I highly recommend them.
The service is great. They come bimonthly and are always professional and friendly. Gabe is fantastic and does a great job. He knocks down all the cobwebs and sprays everywhere. He is super detailed and listens to my concerns. I would like Gabe every time.
I have few bugs if any...not seen them in years. If I have a specific problem outdoors like aphids, it is taken care of immediately. My dog is safe; the servicemen are polite and efficient.
Great fast service. I have used them for 2 years and not seen a bug of any description since using their service. I was having a major ant problem and it’s joy not to have those invasions.
I found Preventitive Pest Control on Facebook and thought I would give them a try. I was pleasantly surprised, they have serviced my home on four occasions already. They come every two months and I have had no problems even during the rain. I highly recommend Preventitive Pest Control.
Great service.
We are very happy with their services.
They help keep the ants away during the crazy any seasons
Interior spray was out of control. Spray was all over the paint on the walls....
