He was very careful to avoid places we asked him to avoid.
Steve was very courteous and helpful to get me the service I needed.

All good...thanks!

We had an underground hornets nest and after one treatment they seem to be gone. Proof scheduled a follow up appointment to double check the area. Would definitely recommend!
They gave us an appointment time for their service. Paul called that morning to let us know when he would be here. He was courteous and answered all of my questions. He even found an additional yellow jacket nest in addition to the 2 we called about. I decided to change from a one time visit to a one year…

Have a big wasp problem on our back deck. Andrea from Proof came out right away. She laid out everything she was going to do and was very friendly and professional!
This was my first time using pest control because of a reoccurring bee issue. Nick who helped us out was super friendly, and he removed the hornet's nest with no issues in addition to spraying the interior and exterioror our home. I signed up for the year long promotion they offer and I'm glad I did. If you need any type of service this is the place. (:
Andrea was very informative and professional.
Nickolas was very nice and seem to be very knowledgeable.
Andrea came out today to help me with some carpenter bees that were infesting my deck. She was extremely punctual; she called to see if we could have her come early and although we couldn't, she was right on time when she came later in the day. She walked the grounds with me and thoroughly inspected the property.…
She did a great job
Andrea Buff does a fantastic job - she is attentive to my concerns and solution oriented. She is also a great communicator.
On time, thorough job and very professional. We hope he is the tech who continues our service throughout the summer
Andrea was really thorough with explaining everything prior to treatment. She was honest and professional. I felt comfortable with the entire process & had no questions after she left. We’re hopeful this will take care of the pest we’ve been dealing with.

Andrea came out to fix a carpenter bee problem as well as some wasp nests. She was very knowledgeable and personable! Explained in detail her 3 step plan of action and even treated some pesky ant problems! Its been over a week and haven't seen ANY carpenter bees or wasps/ hornets! Even the ant activity is way down! Thank you Andrea!!
We had Andrea as our technician- she was very professional and thorough. Highly recommend proof pest- we’ve used other services in the past and none have eliminated wasps/hornets as effectively as proof pest control!
Andrea was very knowledgeable, professional, easy to talk to. She showed empathy and concern for any pets we may own giving good clear and concise instruction on how long to wait before letting our fur babies out side. She demonstrated good knowledge of the insect we were dealing with, and how best to treat them.…

Initially Dylan did not perform his full duties. Today Jeffary did a complete service and wasp removal. Donald (management) was very apologetic for initial poor service.
Donald was very thorough and meticulous. Best of all, he successfully solved our problem.
Alicia Oswalt provided our first treatment from Proof today. She was very thorough and polite. Very hard worker. We were so impressed with the time she spent making sure she covered all of our "problem" areas. Very impressed!
