Bug Masters technician Mufasa was thorough, professional, and enthusiastic. He always executes his service as required and pays attention to any request of the homeowner. I couldn't ask for more.
He was very polite and professional knew I had dogs so called ahead to let me know so I could put them inside. Introduced himself and went right to work asked if I seen an increase in any type of pest.
Our rep, Robert, is always quick and very considerate of time constraints, pets, etc. Highly recommend!

Mufasa is the sweetest and very thorough with his work
On time, professional. Would highly recommend this company for their flexibility, their professionalism, and the fact that I don’t have any bugs ever in the house. They also use a dog safe product, which is important to me.
Service was great as usual. Had a return tech Robert today for our appointment. Robert you where great. In todays world to have someone in our home we can trust and feel safe is a huge plus, You provide that too Very professional but personable.
Mat is very respectful and thorough and always asks if we need anything in addition.
Very helpful and addressed all my concerns
They always let me know in advance when they will be here. Very good and dependable service. Would use again
Friendly, to the point, and able to help at between appointments at no extra cost. Sadly not a 5 star experience just yet, but it's due to lack of communication between the front, customer, and technician. It's wasp season as we know and I told the front about having nests and spiders around the outside of the home.…
I really appreciate the great job The Bug Masters do! We have been utilizing their service for a year now and have never been disappointed.
Mike is very knowledgeable about his job and the insects he exterminate. I can contact him anytime regarding his work or if I have questions. I would highly recommend him at Bug Master.
Have been using the Bugmasters for two years. They are always very professional and knowledgeable. On time and friendly. Very affordable.
