I've been very happy with Yankee Pest Control so far for our residential mouse problem. Matt did the inspection, set traps and bait station, sprayed, and patched some of the entry points for mice the same day. He also pointed out issues that could help prevent mice from entering in the future. During his follow-up…

I have had YP for years now & have been satisfied with ease of communication/scheduling. But I need to do a special shout out to Kendra who has come out the last few times. She is pleasant, eager to help and gives me great advice on what I can do to prevent unwanted visitors. I am now requesting her for my follow up appointments!

John is amazing! He thoroughly inspected in and around my house, found and sealed the entry point that no other technician could find. He’s incredibly knowledgeable and professional. I put my trust in Yankee Pest Control and they didn’t disappoint.

John was fantastic. Not only did he take care of the items that concerned us but also performed a "home inspection" and found multiple openings thru which pests could enter. He fixed them and it was all included. No extra charge! My experience with Yankee Pest Control was 100% positive. One thing I wont have to worry about anymore . Thanks John!!
