Treatment went okay. The techs have always been great . They did find activity and tried to call service rep. on that date . I said well have them call me Monday. I gave them my other phone number due to trouble with my other. They office called Monday at noon to set up a appointment for Tuesday between 2 and 4 with Ryan. I waited till 5 and no one ever showed . I contacted then Wens-day and they tried to say we did not have your phone number which they did . I gave it to the tech that Saturday and the following Monday they called the number I gave the tech. But the office said they never called me or had it down in their books. At that point I was irradiated . I let them know I was and I was done with them . Ryan showed up Thursday I guess trying to smooth things over . Because at that point we had no appointment and I was done with it . He said which I do believe he never got the mess age . Office staff can make or break a business. And in this day and age people have called ID and voice-mail so never tell a customer you did not call I record all my appointments. At this point I do have to honor my contract but they have given me no reason to renew it when it comes up for renewal.

I called in to reinstate this annual service from the previous home owner's contract. It had lapsed a few months but I was still able to get it continued with no issues or extra charges. An appointment was immediately scheduled. The inspector arrived in the stated time frame and checked the crawl space. The home is already covered by a past preventative treatment they did. The visit took about 15 minutes. A report is handed over at the end of the visit regarding a comprehensive list of checks for possible issues that could be of concern for the home being organisms, moisture, and pests. I'm not sure I'd say that being over 100 a year for this service is in my desired range but I believe continuing it is an important service in proving steps are being taken to ensure the health of the house to insurance or when the house is sold.

Response from Action Pest Control Inc
We are very sorry to hear that you are not pleased with your service. It is not our practice to use any more product than is absolutely necessary and this is for your safety as well as ours. We do practice Integrated Pest Management which basically means we're only applying products according to their strict label instructions and using the least invasive methods of treatment possible. Many of our clients feel it is more convenient that we do not require them to be home for treatment. However, we would be more than happy to plan our visits around your availability and I will have someone from our office follow up with you to arrange just that. Thank you for your feedback and please feel free to let us know of anything we can do to improve your experience with us.

They were pleasant and prompt. I used a different contractor. I didn't use them, but, would give them good ratings. The reason I didn't use them was the price differential. They were very professional.

They do everything for us. I signed up for their monthly service. We had an invasion of bugs and they got a grip on it right away and told us everything we could do to help also. You get the same person that comes to our house every month. We have some extra buildings on our property that is not part of our plan but he sprays them too and will not charge us more for doing that for us. He gives you his personal number and will come out the same day if you need him.

I have always been satisfied with them. If I have any problem, they will come back immediately and take care of it. I pay them a monthly fee of $70. I pay the same amount every month. I cannot comment on their price because I have not used any other company. I will continue to use them in the future.

They were not helpful nor their products. We still had problems with moles and spiders, but my husband had someone else take care of it. The products they used don’t seem to work nor did they keep up their promise of taking care of the situation. The crew was not efficient, but a lady in their office was good. I do not wish to use their services in future.

The employees are really nice and really sweet. They want to satisfy their customers and keep them happy. They will do pretty much whatever you want. We have a bird, cats and a dog so they are superb about not using anything in the house that would hurt them. They are unbelievably amazing on that. They are not the cheapest but I think their price is average. They do an excellent job. Usually they are calling me to see if they can come out and we will keep using them.

The company has been wonderful--prompt in returning calls, thoroughly efficient and professional, concerned and courteous. After the first two treatments the moth fly numbers were significantly reduced and after the last treatment we have not seen a single one. The company however will continue to monitor the situation. I have every confidence in Action Pest Control and it has been a pleasure working with them. Incidentally, although they are based in Indiana, they cover a wide surrounding area.
Description of Work: We had a problem with moth flies breeding in our basement and coming up into the house. We contacted several well-known pest control companies to be told that they didn't "do" flies and we should release an insecticide bomb which would fix the problem. We did this on a couple of occasions and it barely reduced the numbers at all. I called Action in desperation and was treated very kindly and courteously and they made an urgent appointment for 2 days later. The person who came assessed the situation, (there was a small leak from a sewage pipe) did an emergency spraying treatment on the spot and arranged for further treatments (so far 4 of them) which included injecting the soil where they were breeding to kill the larvae---and even a clean up of the basement after the treatments. Incidentally they even have their own etymologist on staff for identification purposes. We now have a yearly contract to include all kind of insects.
