I worried we had bed bugs after I woke with several bites on my stomach. The first company I called didn't treat bed bugs, but Action Pest Control said they did. The woman who scheduled my appointment with Greg, for the following day, was very polite and helpful. Greg was the same. He was prompt and professional and conducted a very thorough assessment of the areas in question. He knew a great deal about bed bugs (and since I had done my homework, I did, too). No bed bugs, or signs of bed bugs, were spotted. He suspected fleas (we had gotten a dog a week prior and she was always on my lap). While we haven't had many bite issues since, we will absolutely call Action Pest Control and Greg if we need to treat for fleas - or bed bugs for that matter. From my short interaction with them, they seemed top-notch.

Thank you so much, Member. I'm sure it was a relief to find out you didn't have a problem with bed bugs after all. They are not fun! We certainly appreciate you keeping us in mind for any future issues/concerns. Thanks again!

Action made an initial visit on 6/18/10 for ants in the kitchen and also discovered wasp and hornet nests. They returned on 6/23 for the first spray of ants and also took care of the wasp and hornet nests he found during inspection. They had to return before the initial visit to spray again for the ants in the kitchen. They did their first quarterly spray on July 29. There will be ongoing charges for the quarterly sprays.
Description of Work: Spray interior/exterior for ants, which were first noticed in the kitchen.

Sales rep came either same day or next day after my initial call to provide estimate. I signed contract same day and initial service was scheduled for following week. The service rep, Devon, is very professional and able to answer all questions. Mosquito control was being done in advance of a wedding reception in our back yard which is almost an acre and has a very large pond and lots of trees. Devon performed the regular services and returned on other occasions promptly to help with a carpenter bee and ant problem. Devon and Jamie (in the office) were both very responsive to all requests. Devon went out of his way to ensure that he got me on his schedule immediately whenever I called.

I am very pleased. Jason, the guy that did the work, was nice, polite and on time.
Description of Work: I had a pill bug problem and they took care of it. They treated my whole house inside and out. After the first treatment I still had a few bugs so I called them and they came back out the next day. I haven't seen any bugs since and it has been two months. For $350 they will treat the house four times this year. I have also notice a significant decrease in the number of bugs eating my plants outside the house.

We've had these pests in our home for a few years and signed up for a year's worth of service. The technician showed up on time, ready to help us. He sprayed the exterior of the house and set out traps. He answered all my questions and even knew he'd be out again. It's been a week since they were out the 2nd time and I haven't seen a single ant or spider. I'm very pleased with their service!
Description of Work: They sprayed the exterior of our home for ants and spiders. They set out baits for the ants. They were very knowledgeable and responsive. Their office even called us back to ask us about their service. They were willing to give us an additional treatment.

Great. I called and spoke with Jaye and explained the problem. She was very polite, friendly and proffesional. She scheduled to have a technician come out to my home the same afternoon that I called. It turns out the ants are carpenter ants and since the home is a condiminium my Home Owner's Association is responsible for treating the problem. Unfortunately, my HOA has a contract with another pest control company and therefore I could not use Action's service. I will definitely be calling them should I need any pest control or exterminating done in the future.
Description of Work: Action Pest Control came out to investigate an ant problem and give me an estimitate of how much it would be to take care of the problem.

Our bugs are pretty limited, so whatever they do they must do well. They spray outside, and then if we do see any bugs inside they come in. I have not compared prices, but I have been happy with them. I will continue to use them as long as the bugs stay away.
Description of Work: We have used them for four or five years for regular pest control. They spray outside, and the first year we used them they sprayed everywhere inside. Last year they sprayed our crawlspace as well.

Not much to add from previous entry. Their service people are very polite and prompt. Their billing leaves a little to be desired however. It takes forever for them to send you one, then once they started calling me about paying only a day or two after the bill arrived. The service person leaves an invoice, but it's hard to read. And they do not include a payment envelope -- minor, yes, but also an easy thing for them to do to make a customer's experience a little less inconvenient.
Description of Work: Called Action Pest out originally for an ant problem in my house this spring. They took care of that and now I have signed up for a continuous service, thus the high price ($89 every other month). They also came out the next day to examine our house after a bat got in somehow, so I was quite impressed with that responsiveness. I haven't really noticed that much less bug activity than in the past, however.

Hello! My name is Sara and I'm the Marketing Coordinator for Action. I wanted to thank you for taking the time to review our company on Angie's List.

You can then request a login. I just wanted to let you know about this bill pay feature as many of our customers find it more convenient than the traditional billing system. Thanks again for your continued support of Action Pest Control!!
