Very informative and thorough
We have no ants to bite little baby toes. Keeps all the babies, toddlers and children happy.
Outstanding Service!! From the initial appointment to the routine monthly services with Lance, it feels like a visit with family/ friends. Not just a generic appointment. We live out in the county, and our biggest issue was outside pests. No more. Lance has given us our outside living space back pest free! Give…
We have used Scout for years and have always been pleased with their customer service and attentiveness to problems when they arise. They are quick to perform a retreat if needed, address new concerns, and answer any questions. Chris was a pleasure to work with as have all of their technicians.
I can’t recommend Scout Pest Control enough! I have been using them for over 3 years and every technician that comes out is polite and professional. I have general pest as well as their flea/tick/mosquito service and I never have any issues! I have a pond right by my house and we do not have any issues with…
He was very quick and efficient but also made sure the job was done!
I am so glad I reached out to Scouts pest control to have regular service set up. Sam came out for the initial visit and assessed my property helped calm my fears about bugs, explained the process of what he was going to be doing with each visit and what the goal was and how we can work together to make the bugs go…
Highly recommend scout pest control. Helped me with all my pest problems

Scout Pest Control does a great job! Lance is wonderful! He was professional & knowledgeable & goes beyond the call of duty!
Fantastic company. Outstanding customer service. The technicians are very respectful, and prompt. They cleared our infestation in less than 3 visits
Our pest control is always on time and very nice.
Fantastic Service. From Sales, to warm customer service from the office, and exterminators possible. I know my home is always in good hands.
Scout has been wonderful in working with us to solve pest problems! They are quick and professional every time!
our technician was very thorough and went beyond our expectations. he let me know everything he was doing and why and talked me through the process to make us feel safe. we are hopeful to keep up this relationship with this company for a long time. thanks again so much for the prompt service to keep our kids safe.
The proof is the best referral. One month after our first treatments and our pest problems are under control! Brad did such a thorough job, and explained everything so well to us. We really appreciate the great customer service of everyone we've worked with so far, and that we aren't seeing bugs!
Joe the technician is outstanding at his job. Kind, courteous and professional. He does a great job for us.
Grateful for a reputable service. They communicate well, are on time, and complete their services as promised.
They were professional and kind. They arrived early and got the job done fast. This company is very friendly and the pesticide they used had no effect on our cats! Wins all around
Amazing service. Super nice!
I called Scout when ants took over my kitchen, and they were seemingly coming from underneath the house. Within two business days I had someone out taking care of it! Not only did they spray the entire house for ants/bugs, but they also took care of a paper wasp nest on my back porch. Super grateful for that, as I’m…
Great experience
Adam and Ben were very friendly, efficient, communicative, and professional!
I use them for my pest control prevention
They did a great job getting rid of the ants!
Jermaine was awesome! Even helped remove a stake that was blocking the fence to open so he could work in the backyard
We have used this business for a couple of years. We have been very happy with the quickness and quality of scout pest control for some time now. I would like to specifically recognize the employee that came to our house on 3/21/23 @ or around 2:50-3:35pm to do regular preventative treatment. He was courteous,…
Excellent service and very polite.
Had an initial problem because they were using contractors for dispatch but after that was fixed everything was really responsive. They came out, did a great thorough job and inform me about everything as the process was going. Was skeptical about an annual subscription for pest control but after the first visit, I'm sure it was a great decision!
Very friendly and thorough technicians.
They showed up the same day and early after calling ahead.
They are always very courteous and meticulous with the treatments. I had a bad Carpenter Bee problem and they have taken care of the problem.
