What customers said about ant extermination
We've used a few different pest control companies over the last 10 years. Bulwark is by far the best. They are extremely thorough in finding nests and the pests that come along each year.

Bug Bully was excellent. I called Sam on one day and he was at my house the next day. We had a lot of black widows and Bug Bully got rid of all of them. Sam also treated some dead spots of grass in my yard for ants. I would totally recommend Bug Bully for your insect issues!

CJ with Orkin has gone above and beyond to help me get rid of my new kitchen guests (black ants). These ants are pretty sneaky and where one entry point is blocked by pesticide, another opens up. I’m seeing less now and hope to not see any very soon.
I’ve been having Sam come to my place to help out with pest problems for over a year now. He’s always been very helpful and found other issues that I didn’t even know were there. He’s helped keep wasps away these last two summers and just recently took care of a black widow and ant problem.

How we grade

Reliability (24%) — How rarely jobs go badly: share of 1–2★ reviews — 60% the last 24 months (or the 20 newest if fewer), 40% all-time; 0% = 100, 15%+ = 0; the category percentile can only raise it.
Craft & service (penalty, up to −10) — Google review highlights: Quality, Professionalism, Responsiveness, Punctuality — how rarely reviewers flag them as a negative, per review since highlights began; 0% = 100, 5%+ = 0.
