They listened to me. They loved my dog.
Always prompt. Live person always answered the phone when I need to call. That is such a wonderful time and emotional saver in this day of AI.
We have used Proactive Pest Control for years, and signing up has been one of the best home care decisions we've made. Our regular service tech Brian embodies what great customer service looks like. Pests are a challenge for our location. But with Proactive servicing our place the pests are manageable. Our service…
Brian was very professional. Went above and beyond expectations. I recommend and will call Proactive next time I need pest control.
Keith is an good technician listening to customer pain , problem and offer good solution . He know what he needs to do for the situation.
I absolutely recommend Pro Active Pest Control. I have used their service for years now and they always have great technicians (all of them) and the service is superior.
This was our first inspection and treatment of our new property and our technician Salamo was so informed of our needs and did not try and upsell us on additional services or products. He treated areas to protect our home from insects and rodents. We would highly recommend him and his company.
Love Pro Active! Brian services our house and he's the best. If he notices areas that need extra work, he will gladly come back out a second time to finish up the job. Love how they go through the extra effort without us even having to ask.
I have been with proactive pest control since i moved here in 2019 They have always been very attentive to all my pest control needs . I highly recommend them. Also my current technician , Brian W. , is great !! He is so knowledgeable , hardworking and friendly !!!
Dakota did an excellent job keeping those summer spiders, and wasps etc. away. Still having a several nest I knocked down with lots of wasp activity and hoping you can return in two weeks to spray again. Thank you
Scott came back to take a second look at some wasp nests that were built around our patio. He also took care of webs that were missed by the previous technician. He was in constant contact with me and ensured that he was able to eliminate the wasp nests for us. It’s been over a month and no wasps. We are also seeing…
Just at Pro Active Pest Control is caring, thorough and goes the extra mile. He really likes his job and it shows. We feel safe and well cared for with Just.
Thorough and Professional
Pro Active Pest Control has serviced our residence for a number of years. Their technicians are knowledgeable and personable.
Great service. Our tech is very knowledgeable and friendly. Pest issues really scared my wife and I as homeowners. Robert informed us on exactly what he was doing to help us and found the right words to reassure us.
William was friendly, efficient and professional. I’m lucky to have him as my Technician
It’s very nice
We've had Pro Active for a bit over a year now and my husband and I are very happy with their excellent service they always provide. We normally get Jeffrey and he does and excellent job. Would definitely recommend this Pest Control company if you are in need of one :)
Great communication, explained what he was going to do, asked questions on what I might be seeing, talked thru the process extremely well. Was kept well informed before, during, and after the service. He took a lot of pride in what he is doing and how he is doing it.
I want to give a shout out to Joseph Beltram. He came and did my service and was very polite. He explained everything to me, cleaned up the spider webs and got rid of a bee hive that was forming in our eaves. I really appreciate the friendly prompt service he performed!
Our technician is Paul. Paul was professional, friendly and did a great job!
Jyron from Pro Active Pest Control is super professional, polite, friendly, and punctual. We are lucky to have him service in our area!
We love the service we get from Pro Active technicians. Ben was awesome- on time, called ahead as promised, and did a thorough job. Thank you Ben and Pro Active.
Missed a lot of spider webs especially on the fence and lights. The previous guy who used to do my house did a much better job UPDATE: Brian came out and went over all the spots that the previous technician missed and resprayed again. He was very thorough and polite. Very happy with Proactive Pest Control
So thankful for Michael. He took the time to inspect my home for openings for our little mice friends that like to live in our garage. He was the first technician to take time out to really look and inform of us where our problem was. He was so polite and patient with all my questions and concerns. 10's across the board
Always on time, courteous and absoute professionals. Team members are knowledgeable and extremely helpful.
Reasonable, professional and responsive!
Great communication with us. He takes care of all our needs.

Joshua Meeks provides excellent customer service and I highly recommend him. Very knowledgeable but what he doesn’t know he knows who to ask.

Kevin came in between regularly scheduled services in order to spray for a wasp nest in my portico. I appreciate his attention to this little but Potentially painful situation.
Joesph Beltran was our technician. He was on time and very professional. He answered all my questions and took care of the wasp hives.
Jason has been outstanding. He is professional, thorough, responds quickly, and is overall fantastic to work with. He's helped us out with wasp nests and most recently a mouse issue. I let him know a mouse had been caught in the trap, and he was over within 15 minutes to address it and set new traps. We can't say…

Every time Chris comes around he specifically stops and asks me how things are going, makes great…

We love that Jeremiah is our technician. Thank you for keeping us free of pests! Jeremiah has a long list of pests that he sprays to keep them away. He also knocks down webs and wasp nests, does the perimeter of our home and will come inside if needed. He rarely has to enter our home though since he takes such good…

I've been using this service for years and they're super reliable and have patiently worked with me on payments when times were hard. The guys who come by, Mike F and Jay, are super professional and helpful and they take care of things we might not have caught in our busy lives.
Mike F has been taking care of our pest service and he’s been doing an amazing job. We briefly talk about our concerns and he takes care of them. Pleasant to work with and extremely professional.
Saul Rodriguez was respectful of property and easy to talk to. He completed the bimonthly service in a timely manner and wore his mask throughout. Thank you!

I also appreciate the covid precautions with the mask worn at all times. I no longer freeze in fear of rats when I go into…
Pro Active Pest Control has been great! When we moved into our house, we had rats in the attic -- they were out here the next day and did "rodent exclusion" by plugging all the holes rats could get in. We haven't had rat problems since. When we had wasps nesting in our stove vent, they were here the next day to…

I’ve used Pro Active for almost a year now. I appreciate that I am notified by Andy ahead of time and that he is the same person who services our home each visit.

Really liked the professionalism and responsiveness of the team. Dru was very helpful in getting me a quick appointment. Frankie came in during the promised time slot and was very nice and helpful in answering my questions. Frankie sprayed the internal of our home to take care of the carpet flees. Hope not to see the flees again!
A couple weeks back I had service by Pro Active Pest Control and let me tell you, Tyler did a fantastic job! The bugs are already gone and my home is entirely bug free after 10 days!
I have used Pro Active for 4-5 years and they're great! I have recommended them to others and have always been happy. I initially had them come out for ants and haven't seen an ant since. They're flexible if I need to reschedule, which I have with COVID, and always on time.
We had some bugs that came in on a produce box that infiltrated our kitchen. Brian was professional helped us find the source and take care of the problem. He also was great about our pets and their safety and recommended treatments that targeted our issues while not impacting the other areas (ie specifically…
Frankie came out and took care of everything and was very courteous and professional. He sprayed for ants, spiders and other bugs in our front, back and perimeter yards. He also set mice traps in our garage. We exchanged contact information so if I have any issues I can contact him. I appreciate his hard work and attention to the details! 👍
I live in South Sacramento and I had a spider and wasp problem, but that’s until I called Cheng to come and get rid of the problem. He did a phenomenal job and ever since Cheng’s service, I have not seen any spiders or wasps around my home.
Cyrus was professional and friendly. Great tech.
Heard great things about this company. If you are in need of pest control please give Cheng a call. He’s very professional and always gets the job done. Always satisfied!
