When I heard that my former exterminator of 10+ years Chris, was no longer with Shield Pest Control, I was concerned about the service but decided to give the next tech a try. I’m so glad I did because Michael Greene was amazing. Super friendly, explaining the process in detail and asked about any areas of concerns…

Brandon was here today, and he did an excellent job. He is an outstanding technician—very thorough, attentive, and professional. He covered the entire area carefully and ensured everything was handled properly. I highly recommend Brandon to any business that uses Shield as their pest control company. Great service…
