All went well at first. But after a few days after the spraying, the chemicals started leaking through the ceiling. The chemicals used were suppose to be stain-free. The inspector promised that they will send someone to repaint my ceilings after he looked at them personally. Unfortunately, it has been more than two months and my ceiling are still stained. I called my inspector three times and he has told me his manager would be calling to schedule a time. However, the manager has never called me. To clarify, the inspector has been responsive to my calls/ emails, it is his manager who has not contacted me regarding my complaints.
Description of Work: Orkin sprayed my attic for drywood termites.

I hired Orkin to exterminate carpenter bees a wood siding boring bee that eats wood. They quoted me $375 for the service the rep was late de an excuse did not do a proper treatment to eradicate this best and the service had absolutely no effect. I previously used Termimix which spend 2 days for a successful treatment for the same price. The Orkin rep only spend 20-20 minutes for $375. I don't believe the serviceman knew what he was doing. I have a 2 story home and proper treatment is to spay the insecticide in the holes and plug the holes. I offered the service man a 40 f00t extension ladder and he responded he is not allowed to climb a ladder. THE SERVICE OF 20 MINUTES FOR $375 ACCOMPLISHED NOTHING!!!!! If Orkin can not exterminate these pests they should not offer the service. I have filed a charge dispute with American Express

Story is above do not trust Orkin
Description of Work: The house I bought had a pest and termite warranty that was still in effect when I bought the house. I noticed some termites in the shrubs and tree outside my house. I called Orkin they came right out. The person who came said they where Subteraniam termites which was not covered under the warranty. he had one in his hand telling me it has to be done or they will spread to my house cost 1,200. I was not satisfied so I called pecorria pest control he came right away and told me they were damp wood termites and do not harm dry wood (my house). so I sprayed and got rid of damp wood and they are gone. So this is two sided Orkin gets an F. and Pecoria pest control who didn't charge me gets an A

They are really good. Orkin Pest Control is much cheaper. First I was going to go with another company, but they are way too expensive. It worked real well. It lasted a good year, but I still have to do my own spraying around the house here and there.
Description of Work: I used Orkin Pest Control for pest control services. They sprayed the front and backyard. Inside, they sprayed the exit and put down traps for the bugs that were going around.

We haven't had any pest problems, and we've been using them for about two years.
Description of Work: They come out every three months. They can do both indoor and outdoor, but we prefer outdoor pest control services because we have three cats. If they only service the outside they'll leave a letter to let us know they did, and that they would come back and do the inside if necessary.

It always goes well. The Orkin tech comes monthly. One month he sprays outside and the next the service is inside. He always asks if I've had any problems that I didn't call about or if I have concerns. He's made suggestions as he's seen necessary. He's always professional and he's here when he's supposed to be. I've used Orkin for about 14 years now. I tried another service once and wasn't at all happy so went back to Orkin within two months. All the techs I've had here have been excellent and I have no complaints. I had a problem a few years ago with ants and called; they sent my tech out within two days and no more problem! Unless something changes drastically, I'll continue to use Orkin services!
Description of Work: This month the service was outside spraying around the house and yard.

The only thing they've done in the last couple of years is come in for an inspection to make sure there are no infestations or anything like that. They seem to know what they are doing. The only time they use the pesticide is when they candid the house and I had gone with my pets for a couple of days that I needed to. I've had no problems with them. I'm still contracted to use them.
Description of Work: I used the services of Orkin a couple of weeks ago. They came in for an inspection on the evidence of termites coming back.

Arrived the morning of the date scheduled. They placed a tent over the entire house and inserted a gas into the tent. Next day they took the tent off our home. As advised they let our house air out for a day and the next afternoon when we went by, a sign on our door saying it was safe to go back in with a designated time. We had the work done in Feb 08 and have not seen any more of the bugs. After the job was completed, the office contacted us to verify that everything went according to the way they advised it would and if we had any problems or issues. The office staff was efficient and cordial and each person that we deal with knew their job well. I would highly recommend this company.

I was impressed that my technician, Aaron Resse who showed up on time. He treated our home with respect. He treated our home for ghost ants. However, the initial treatment helped, but it did not solve our problem. I called Orkin, since they have a guarantee. They told me they would have Aaron call; and he did within four or five minutes. He told me that he was just finishing a job, and that he would come out right away. He did; I was really impressed. After a couple of weeks, I still had a few ants, so I called again. The same thing, Aaron came out right away, although my monthly service was scheduled about a week away. After this treatment, I have not seen any ants. He was wonderful. The extra treatments were at no charge. I will refer Aaron to all my friends.

I DO NOT KNOW WHY THE EXTERMINATOR DID NOT TELL ME WHEN ONE OF MY CERAMIC FIGURINES WAS ACCIDENTALLY KNOCKED OVER AND BROKEN. I FEEL THAT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE PROFESSIONAL TO HAVE TOLD ME. AT LEAST ORKIN IS GOING TO PAY TO HAVE IT REPLACED.
