Arranging the service was easy! Brian came out to give us a quote on a termite plan and Jacob came out to start our pest control service. Both were on time and very professional. I highly recommend the Bug Man.

The sales rep., Michael, was very informative and knowledgeable about termites. Justin was very courteous and worked a long time on the setup of the preventive measures for termites and elimination of powder post beetles. My experience with the staff of this company has been excellent.
