We have been with Scout Pest Control since 2024. I recommend them to everyone! Having a membership is worth every penny. They are always quick to respond and come out right away when we need them.

I chose Scout Pest Control on the recommendation of a friend from church. James, the salesman, that came for my first initial visit was so professional, respectful and honest. He took his time explaining everything to me, showing me things around my house that I hadn’t noticed and he never once made me feel…
We just had Scout treat our new home. Joe was very prompt and professional. Good experience!
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.

Highly recommend scout pest control. Helped me with all my pest problems
Scout Pest has done a great job controlling my roach and termite problems. The service tech are nice and helpful in answering any questions or concerns I have about my issue. Scouts office personnel also respond quickly to any questions or concerns I have. I also want to give a shout out to the tech Chris that did a great job at my last appointment.
Lance was Super nice, and very attentive. We are very satisfied with how we have been treated along with the products they've used to solve our pest issues. 100% happy.

Recently as the company I have had my termite service with was bought out by another company, I inquired about transferring my termite service to Scout. James and Chris provided detailed…
Grateful for the service we have received. Good price and reliable.
Great service. Jeremy and James were super helpful and knowledgeable and gave us the best deal possible. We switched service from Cook’s and are glad we did.
Fantastic Service. From Sales, to warm customer service from the office, and exterminators possible. I know my home is always in good hands.
Service has been great
He did a great job Love the Attention to Detail and really explained everything that he was . Never had someone come in and explain everything to me, and it made it so much easier for me to understand and be comfortable with the services that the company provided
Amazing service and a great price! I'm so glad I found them for our pest service and I look forward to working with them. I will be referring them to everyone I can.
We have been using Scout for about 8 years now. We initially called for help with sugar ants and later added on termite prevention service. Scout has been very responsive and easy to work with. They keep us informed on when to expect their visits and will automatically reschedule us when the weather is not…
Great service. Thoroughly explained the process and options. Highly recommend.
Lance was very friendly and took the time to walk me through all the different services. He also provided us with recommendations on other things we could do for our crawl space!
