They're very good, B+ overall. Lately we have some very tiny bugs that never seem to go away, and Ready Pest Control is always very good about coming back out to spray without a charge. They're very helpful and knowledgeable in answering my questions, and are very professional. They typically send the same person out.
Description of Work: I've used them for about 5 years for pest control.

I've been satisfied with their work. They charge about $90 each time, which I think is high, but I do see results when then come out. I've never had any problems with them, and I would use them again in the future as well as recommend them to others.

We are very happy with their service. We live in the country and frequently have mice in our house. They set bait stations inside and outside the house and we have not seen a mouse since. We also had a wasp problem to the point that we could not go out on our deck. They removed all the hives and sprayed. We still see a wasp every now and then but it is 99.99% better! They dusted the basement and garage for spiders and we have not seen a spider in our house for the 2 years we've had their service. Pros: - You can pay for the service as you go but they give a 5% discount if you pay a year in advance. We pay the year in advance. - We have the same technician every time, which is great. - If we suddenly have a problem, they come out for free. Cons: - They don't always let us know when they are coming and sometimes we're not home. This is fine though because most of the time they don't need to come inside unless we have a pest problem in the house. If that's the case, we just schedule a special service call (again, for free)

I trust what he is doing, so I don't check behind him. I did notice he had cleaned some cob webs out. He always leaves a detailed report of what was done.

They did a great job eradicating the wasps and the nests around our deck. In addition, they returned as needed to ensure the problem was truly resolved. Our initial service was over a year ago, and we've continued with maintenance service ever since as we've been very pleased.

They have done this for several years. Results have been good. We used to be bothered with lady bugs; they have been eliminated. They also spray for wasps and previous issues have been eliminated. We have not had trouble with any other bugs. In general, we have been satisfied with their services.

This service call started our second year. He treated downstairs this time and then treats outside in the spring. We have been pleased with this service and renewed with them at a savings this year
Description of Work: Jared did our quarterly service. The annual cost this year($360) was less than last year and he does a great job. If we have a problem between our service calls, he will come back and take care of it.

We are pretty satisfied with them and we have no problems. They come out a couple of times a year. The technician was very professional and explained what he was doing, and what they look for. He explained if a trap was touched or not touched. He also gave us feedback on what he saw. They also dress nice and explain things. I was happy with them.

It has been good. If you have any problems just call them and they will come right back. They come every other month. They are very friendly and always ask if there is anything we need done . They go out of their way to ask what needs to be done. We have been using them for about 5-6 years now. We have gotten to know the technicians by name.

We have been using Ready Pest for about four years now. We always have the same technician, Jared and I really like that it is not a different person coming to our home for each service. We recently purchased a 100 year old home with some acreage, and Jared is aware of our "trouble" areas and is always accommodating and very professional. We have used other pest remediation companies before, and Ready Pest is far and beyond the best. This summer, shortly after we moved, my son was out in the garden and disturbed a nest of ground bees. He was stung multiple times, which was quite frightening. I called Ready Pest and Jared was at our house the next morning taking care of business, even though his schedule was quite full that day. I have recommended this company to friends and family, and will continue to do so!

I think it went very very well! See my above comment as well!! Because Dan didn't feel like he had done much (but it was a great service to me) he refused to charge me much. He called it in to his boss and they agreed that I should call if the bees return and they will charge me for that service when and if I need it. Wow, now that is honest service that is rare today. I gave him some goodies to take home as a thank you for his careful work. I have been checking each day since he was here and there still are no more bees swarming about and no new nests in the ground.
Description of Work: I had concerns of a bee hive in the ground in my back yard near my back door. I had already had a friend that put some poison down for me but I had still seen a few bees buzzing around the hole a few days later. Because I am severely allergic to bees (It is a life threatening allergy for me), I called this company to see what they could do for me. This company was very responsive to my need when I called. The next day at my convenience, Dan Williams came to check out my bees. Much to my surprise there was only bee larva left. He dug into the nest and killed the larva and sprayed some power poison in to the nest to insure that they bees would die. He was very careful and through in checking out my yard and house to see if there was any other bees nesting around my place (there were none in sight).

We were in the process of moving into our new home and noticed a lot of earwigs in the basement. I called Ready Pest and they were out within the hour and did a thorough spraying off the basement and around the outside of the home. As well as remvoing any webbing and hives that they could find. We did sign up for the quarterly treatments.

This is money extremely well spent. I moved into a 1920s home that had mice - yuck! Ready Pest found entry points, laid traps inside and out, took all of my concerns into account and the mice are now gone (nearly 1 year now). The other week I noticed a few dead bees in the house and Jose came that day, found a hive and eliminated the problem. For me, this is a great 'insurance' plan for an older home that likely has more pest issues than a newer home. Everyone at Ready Pest is professional and just plain nice - highly recommend them!

I have a year contract. They are scheduled to come out 5x/year. I paid a total of $360, $90 per visit. I paid for 4 and one treatment is free. They have always been very professional and fully anwered any questions and/or concerns I have had. Treatment seems to be working well. If I see an increase in pest activity between scheduled visits they will come out to do extra treatments. This is the 2nd year I have used this company and I play to use they next year.

I have held off on a review because i wanted to see a years worth of service. initially we hired Ready Pest Control to eliminate several wasps nest and a spider infestation under our deck on a walk out basement. They have since been back to treat for ants, mice, and various other bug that want to make our house their home. Ready Pest Control provides us a quarterly service to protect our home. Spring and Summer are targeted to the outside of the house, Fall and Winter are aimed at the inside. To date, we are very happy with the results of their treatments and would recommend them to anyone needing single treatment or continued applications. They call to make appointments, show up on time, get the job done, tell you what they did, and leave tings as they found them.
