Ever since they took over for IPM, I have nothing but trouble. They increase the monthly cost, but don't provide acceptable level of service. They show up anytime they feel like it without notification. When they are here, it seems like they don't service the whole property like they are suppose to. When you try to…

It was great when i was services by Cavanaugh's Termite & Pest Services. But, its going south when Vikings Pest Control took over Cavanaugh and Vikings really suck with their services. They cant really treat anything and they dont care if you want to cancel the service. I would go with a different provider in my next run and would not recommend Vikings.

Paul Kaplan was the technician that came out to my house. He identified and treated ants at my back door. He re-baited several mouse stations around my property. Paul was extremely knowledgeable in pest control. He answered all my questions on ticks. Thank you Viking Pest control. Another great experience.

Cam G. was back over today for our monthly mosquito spray and routine perimeter check and spray. As soon as I saw Cam, I told him I was happy to see him. He was here back in May and he was so thorough, we didn't have any mosquito issues for weeks. The other techs who came throughout the summer were OK, but Cam is the best.
