My wife and I have been nothing but pleased with the service. As far as price compared to service quality, Upfront is a no brainer. My neighborhood has a huge problem with wasps, he came out and knocked them all down and finished it off with a pheromone they stay away from. He also took care of the ants/spiders. I’d…
Quick response for service. Did a very thorough assessment and treatment on first application. Looking forward to be mosquito free and be able to enjoy our backyar.
Upfront provided excellent service, on time, for a very reasonable amount, less than I had been paying.
Josh is very professional and took care of all my issues right away. Great service for a great price. Highly recommend
Super helpful! They were very communicative & able to come out quickly. Very thorough initial visit taking care of everything & they answered all my questions! Thank you!
I started using UPFRONT PEST control in August 2025, utilizing their yearly plan, which includes four visits + if any bugs are spotted inside they will come back out to rectify. Kansas City weather is erratic, with all the rain we’ve had this spring no problems. Josh has done a great job inside and out. I highly recommend him.
Great price, very friendly service, no pressure.
We were very pleased with the pest service Josh provided! It was affordable and he communicated expectations well. We would definitely recommend his company to others!
Josh was very pleasant to talk with. He arrived within the time window that was set and began working at once. He talked to me about what he was doing and explained the process he followed. We are very pleased with the quick appointment time, customer service, and professionalism. Thank you!
Jeff just finished up my 2nd quarter service call. He was very thorough and efficient, while inquiring about any pest control issues. Since switching to Upfront Pest, the team has done a great job of taking care of all our pest control issues. Thanks Jeff!
Upfront offered clear communication and clear pricing options, with flexibility to meet our needs if things ever change. Easily the most affordable pest control that I’ve found in the KC Metro area. They scheduled an appointment for 2 days after I called, offered a specific appointment time, and showed up at that…
Thorough, responsive, and friendly at a great cost. Couldn’t ask for better service! Highly recommend.
Had an excellent experience with UpFront Pest and wanted to share for anyone dealing with similar issues. We were having problems with ants (inside and outside), spiders, and wasps, and after submitting the initial intake, they got us scheduled incredibly fast. Josh, was simply phenomenal. He was kind,…
Incredible service! The pricing is great and everything that comes with the packages had us sold. Josh is also very friendly and professional. We will definitely be recommending him to anyone who needs pest control services!
Very helpful, thorough and friendly!
Josh was great. Clear communication, on time, and got the job done. Couldn't have asked for a better service. Highly recommend.
Very impressed by Josh- his knowledge, efficiency and feedback truly helped.
In my business, I work with Plyers and vendors and service companies multiple times every day. I can honestly say that I do not believe I have ever met a business owner more committed to his craft, more thoughtful, more professional, and more understanding of a customer‘s needs than Upfront Pest Control and it’s…
Amazing service!! We needed service fast and Josh added us to his schedule within days of me calling. He’s very friendly and professional. I highly recommend Upfront Pest!
I just moved here cross-country and had my first service with Upfront Pest. Josh was incredibly welcoming and made a great first impression. He was polite, communicative, and quick while still being thorough. It’s nice to feel taken care of right away in a new place!
