Too many different changes in the actual technician that does the work. I was told one thing over the phone when scheduling the appointment but the actual technician told me something different and changed the narrative. Walked the house after he left and it appeared like nothing was done. It’s been better in the past.

Service was great. Tech was professional and considerate. My only disappointment was they couldn’t guarantee for spiders and no one made him aware of my coupon. Otherwise, they’ve earned a new customer. Update: I’ve been with the company almost a year and rarely see anything inside my home. New tech assigned and he is just as courteous and professional

We love the thorough service, the recommendations and most of all the trust that whatever our pest problems, they are dead after Eric leaves, lol. No more spiders, red ants or rats (garage). The convenience is a plus. If we are not here Eric…
