Ruva Pest Control at a glance

Customers frequently praise the technicians for their punctuality, professionalism, and thorough explanations regarding pest exclusion and treatment processes. Positive feedback highlights the staff's willingness to address specific concerns, such as setting traps or sealing entry points, while noting competitive pricing. However, several low-star reviews criticize the company's billing practices, specifically alleging difficulties with cancellation, unexpected charges after service termination, and a lack of communication when recurring pests appear.

Luke came to my home to set up traps spray for the first time, etc. I never made it to the door the first time he knocked and rang the bell but he never gave up and I truly appreciated that I had my granddaughter here and it just is hard. I truly appreciate him for sure!! Great kid!
