Kevin was knowledgeable and thorough, not to mention friendly. Thanks for the great service!
Norman is a courteous and respectful technician. He placed protective covering on his shoes to protect my wooden floors. He sprayed my home for ants.
The technician arrived on time, evaluated the issue, explained, how ants would be terminated and treated the areas inside and outside of the house.
Norman, is a gentleman! Courteous, cheerful and excellent at his work.
Evens and Norman are the absolute best!
Great service every time they come. I had ant problems. Tried doing all treatment myself and nothing was working. Call Universal pest they came and stopped my ant problem.

Universal Pest Control is the BEST pest control company I have ever worked with. We had a termite problem, as well as carpenter ants that were eating into the house's walls.
