I don’t have anything to compare the price to because this was the first time I used them. They did a good job. The workers are very professional.
Description of Work: They come out, they do a thorough inspection. They give you a good update on what they find and possible treat for what you are doing.

We have used them for several years for regular bi-monthy pest control service. They call the day before a scheduled service with an arrival window. If there is ever a problem or need for treatment between regular service times, they respond promptly. This is the best company - out of about 5 or 6 over the last ten years or so. Very satisfied.
Description of Work: Bi-monthly treatment and re-supply bait stations.

They call me and let me know when they're on their way. Then they come out and do the spraying. I can call them if I see a bug and they'll come out right away.
Description of Work: I have a contract with them to come out and spray around the home every few months. They come 3x a year.

I would not recommend using them. They lost their license to do business. The BBB gives them a D minus rating.

They seem okay. They were here last week. They come every two months. It is $89 for each service. They were recommended by the builders from whom we bought the house; so we just stuck with them. They are basically just doing exterior pest control, not termite control. We did not sign up for that. They usually let us know a day or so ahead of time and we leave the gate open and they do the job and go. The price seems to be competitive. We will keep using them at least for a few more services and then we’ll decide if it is worth it or not.
Description of Work: We use Home Team Pest Defense for pest control.

Everything is done very thoroughly and I am very pleased. They are on time and always professional. I know that the chemicals are working well because there are no pests left behind. They have good prices and great customer service. I think they are great. I pay for the service yearly.
Description of Work: Every quarter they come and spray the outside of my 3800 square foot home for household pests.
