Rick arrived on time, and was extremely pleasant to work with. He quickly sprayed the interior, then the clouds started to roll in, and we determined it would not be in either of our best interest if he sprayed the outside pending the oncoming rain. So, he came back later in the week and sprayed the exterior. 90 day guarantee. Very professional. I would definitely recommend.

He came. He sprayed. No bugs are inside my home . Not much more to tell.
Description of Work: He sprayed a little inside my home and a great deal outside my home to kill unwanted (aren't they all?) insects.

Very professional and complete service. Did not do any type of hard sell for future services at all but I was impressed enough that I asked them to come back every fall and spring.

Purchased an Angie's list big deal for this service on the weekend. Provider called first thing Monday morning to schedule a day and time to come out. Technician showed up on time, explained what he would do. Services are guaranteed for 90 days. Told me if it rained they would come back and redo the outside. Also if we continue to see ants after 2 weeks to call them and they will return. Great service!

Description of Work: Assessed pest problem. Set traps. Advised us on behaviors of pest. Advised us on most likely pest entry point. Advised me on best way to block entry point(s) for that pest. Said for me to call if pest problem persists so additional pest problem solutions can be done, if necessary. Responded to my follow up telephone call the next day to clarify a pest control question. Said to call back if any additional questions or concerns. It has gone well. Two pests were trapped. So far, 10 days later, no additional pest noticed.

Prompt call back to get an appointment scheduled. On the day of the appointment they were on time to the minute! Very friendly and professional. Plus, their thoroughness and product is superior. I rarely see more than a very occasional spider in between twice a year sprayings. Will definitely continue to use them and recommend them to others!

He never called me back, so I ended up calling them again. They didn't answer, so I left a message. I never got a response, so I called again and still didn't get an answer. I haven't heard from them since and don't plan on calling them again.
Description of Work: I called them to come and spray for boxelder bugs. He told me to wait because the ground had to be dry but that he would call me.

They were very good. There was one time when we had a mouse and they came out immediately. They set up the trap and they checked every day until they got the mouse. I'd definitely rate them highly.

I have been using Peterson Pest for 17 years. They come twice a year and spray inside the house and out. I have a one-story home with basement. I pay around $85 each time. That also covers calls in between appointments if necessary. For example, they've come back for honey bees, wasps, and mice at no additional charge. Also, if it rains too soon after they spray, they come back and spray outside again. No additional charge. They call me to set up my appointments which is nice as I don't have to remember to do that. They are prompt, courteous, and professional. The timing is perfect, too. I see my first spider of the season and about two days later they call to set up my appointment! I just can't say enough good things about Peterson. I am so pleased. I recommend them to all my friends.
Description of Work: Peterson's called me to set up my twice-yearly appointment. They showed up on time. They sprayed for bugs inside and outside the house. They told me how long I needed to keep my dog away from the sprayed areas. They left. The appointment took maybe half an hour.
