JP Pest Services has been providing pest management solutions for New England homes and businesses since 1925. We’ve learned a lot about our Northeast customer base over the past 9 decades like what they expect from the effectiveness of our services to what they need from our Customer Service Representatives and Service Professionals in the field.
The bees burrow into wood. I was told they guaranteed the service for a year. Within three months they were back. When I called and contacted them to tell them they were back they told me it wasn't under warranty. Out of courtesy they came out and did it again. It was an average cost because I did have it priced out by other people. The guy who specifically came to my house I would give an A for professionalism. He was really nice. The people in the office I give, probably, a C.
Description of Work: For pest services I use JP Pest Services. The last time they were here they did a service for carpenter bees.

I was very impressed by their staff, from the woman who sold me the service to the actual technicians. Due to bad weather, the first tech was unable to complete the outdoor inspection and spraying; before she even got out of my driveway, I had a call about rescheduling so that the service could be performed. When the second tech came, there was a miscommunication between us about what needed to be sprayed, and again within minutes I had a call to reschedule. So far, I am very pleased and I am not seeing any more icky bugs!
Description of Work: We've moved into an older home with a basement full of creepy crawlies. We have signed on for JP Pest Control's quarterly program to keep them under control.

see above. On the first quarterly visit I left the basement door open so that they could add new mice poison and pick up dead mice. They locked up on leaving the basement (dead mice were removed) I have no complaints. Wish I had done this years ago, rather than fighting insects/mice/ants.
Description of Work: Performed insect inspection inside and out. Placed mouse poison in cellar, took care of stinging inssects's nests high on outside roof. I signed up to have the service performed quarterly. I had to wait 7 to 10 days initally for them to come out. I called them as I had yellow jackets coming thru the ceiling into the house. I patched the hole until they came. They killed the nest. Don't know if they would come quicker now that I am on the quarterly program, JP checked the attic ,found bat leavings. paid $750.00 for them to install one way doors in attic and fix screens in soffats that had been damaged. (Yes, a bat did previously enter the house) They worked around my schedule.

Very well. I do wish the same person came out every time. That may cause me to go elsewhere next year. The second guy had to find all the trap and stuff. They are really nice on the phone but it's a call center so everything is 3rd party. One service I didn't need to be home But the phone people said I needed to be there. So check on that. I was upset. I would prefer to deal with one person for everything.
Description of Work: Hired for mice. Cheaper to sign a year contract to do all bugs. They only put poison in the attic and they don't climb around up their. Have had several nice die inside the walls. They did spend 2 hours filling gaps and every quarter they come back and spend some time. Said we had bat droppings in the attic so we spent 550 to have them install exits and then they came back to close the gaps. 10 year guarantee as long as you stick with them annually.

Hello [Member Name Removed] and thanks for the review. I apologize for the fact that we gave you incorrect information when we scheduled a service. Just a point of clarification: While we do operate a contact center, it is housed in our headquarters and they are our employees. Its not like you are calling India or something! Its just a more professional and consistent means of providing customer service. We are still very much a local company as have been since 1925 when my grandfather started it. It does sound like someone was off message that day you called however, I am confident that over time you will see that we try really hard to get it right. Sincerely, Chris Pestana VP

I was extremely upset thinking we had bedbugs, I know someone who lives in the city who does. I found JP Pest services on Angie's List and called them. The receptionist Corrina told me that what I described as bedbugs did not sound like bedbugs and if I would bring in my sample to their 101 Emerson Road Milford NH location that the Entomologist Gary would look at them under a microscope and tell me what I have at no cost. I did, he did, and..... I do not have bedbugs. Gary gave me a half hour of his expert time educating me about bedbug infestations, assuaged my fears that living in a single family house, not being a traveler, not buying used upholstered furniture etc. puts my odds pretty low for being a bedbug candidate. He did show me a simple plastic device which can be placed under the feet of ones bed to trap any bedbug that might ever venture toward it if, in fact, one might have bedbugs and said they were $5.00 each and could be bought there or Bed Bath and Beyond for the same price. I happily bought four for a total investment of $20.00 Gary has saved me and my sanity and although this did not make any money for that company I am so very impressed that Service is paramount with JP Pest Services and will use them if ever the need arises and I will tell the world of my wonderful experience. Layne Batchelder Merrimack, NH
Description of Work: Assured me that we have NOT got bedbugs and that we were Not in need of their professional services beyond meeting with their Entomologist who was happy to determine that what I thought was bedbugs was nothing important. We do not need an exterminator. I am pleased and relieved and have peace of mind. Priceless!

Thank You [removed member name] for your detailed description and thoughtful review. We really appreciate it when someone invests this kind of time to convey to others how we conduct our business.

I am very proud of our team and our philosophy and it is very gratifying when someone like yourself appreciates it. Thanks Again for the great Review. We look forward to assisting you again in the future. Sincerely, Chris Pestana VP

Exactly as advertised. Professional and thorough service. The technicians showed up on time well within the estimate given. The contract was exactly as represented with no attempt to upsell or change pricing. The service was performed just this past week, so it is too early to tell if the product used works, (though I assume from all the previous positive reviews that it will), but as far as the interaction with the office staff and the technicians is concerned, the experience could not have been more positive.

They came on time, were professional, courteous, explained everything they were going to do and then followed up with confirmation of services and work still to be done each visit. There are not any signs of any squirrels or mice in my house since they did their work in January. I signed up for the quarterly service plan and they scheduled and notified me of the date (no need to get into the house) and confirmed after the fact. The billing is easy and convenient, and done separate from the service technicians. Friendly, fast, complete, exceptional service provider!

Same service we've had for 30 years.....generally satisfied. My complaint is a shocking collection report from this company. We have used JP for over 30 years at our restaurants.We've been in business for 40 years and always used JP.We now use them in our three operations. We're getting a little older now and thanks to our wonderful staff,we're able to spend our winters at our Florida home.. What a surprise when we got home and found that our JP bill had gone to collection. We'd missed a $200 payment but they never called the restaurant (our manager is authorized to pay suppliers) or never notified us. We have pristine credit.....never missed or was late in a payment in our adult lives. So,my message is........they do not value loyalty and appreciate long term customers. Don't know if ownership has changed but we were very disappointed with them.

[member name removed], I apologize for the misunderstanding and will be reaching out to you to speak to you directly about this matter. I am a third generation owner of the company and I am humbled by your review here on AngiesList. Please do not fault my employees they were simply following our standard procedures which we have reviewed as a result of this feedback. In your case as with any other, we reached out to the service location with three reminders and a letter at 30, 60, and 90 days and received no response. We had no idea that no-one there was opening your mail. To ensure that this does not happen to you again, we have made you a VIP account and Sandy our head of accounting will personally call you should a communication breakdown occur again in the future. Thanks for your understanding. We will work diligently to earn back your faith in us. Sincerely, Chris Pestana VP

Carpenter ants are gone! The one year we tried to skimp and delay the treatment, we noticed.
Description of Work: We get a biannual treatment to take care of carpenter ants in our house. JP Pest was great, start to finish. The original tech that came through walked me around the home, pointing out things that could be a problem, and what not to worry about. The ant treatment we get we renew in the spring, and the actual treatment takes place entirely outside, and doesn't bother the household at all. I have 2 small children.

J.P.Pest Services swooped in here like super hero's and took control of the problem aggressively and thoroughly! All the while, walking me through each and every step of their processes ensuring that I understood "exactly" what would be happening not only on the first visit, but in future required follow up visits for any rodent infestation. This company was able to send an exterminator out THE VERY NEXT DAY AFTER MY FIRST CONTACT CALL WITH TBE COMPANY. I had called three other exterminators prior, all whom couldn't send any exterminator for at least 3-4 weeks out. I had a rodent problem (and if your famiar with rats....a very large BREEDING problem that without outside assistance could easily destroy a single famy home such as mine. The price I was quoted was also MUCH CHEAPER than the other companies and "nothing changed from the time of the phone call and the price quote I was given through completion of what has now been their fourth visit to my home. I can happily report that after visit #2, I HAD NO MORE RAT PTOBLEM/S, no noises, no further damage, visible dead rats caught, trapped, or killed via their very safe and clean extermination methods, and most importany, I HAD PEACE OF MIND AGAIN that it was only me, my two children, our two dogs and cat that lived here in our house!!! I also can rest a lot better knowing that J.P.Pest Services also work to ensure that whatever pest entered the home will also not be able to "RE-GAIN ENTRY in the future! This company was professional, quick, friendly, efficient, and affordable. I am happy to say that my FIRST EXPERIENCE with AN EXTERMINATOR/S was a very happily ending and satisfied one!!! Thank you J.P.Pest Services forhelping me ease through this "not so neat and clean" problem!!! Not sure where iI'd be now should I had chosen a different company!!
Description of Work: J.P.Pest services is one fantastic Company! Never in my life had I required the assistance of or had the 'need' for an Exterminator/Extermination company. Most homeowners hope that they will NEVER run into a situation in which they find their homes "taken over" if you will, by any type of unwanted and uninvited "guests", which in my case the unexpected roommates turned out to be an infestation of Norway rats!!! Due to recent excavations and extensive construction in the area surrounding my home, the harsh bitter cold the winter season brought this year, and access to a river that winds through my property, my garage turned out to be a very cozy and very endless food and water supply for a what started out small but fastly became a LARGE RODENT INFESTATION. These Norway rats (which can grow to be the size of a small house cat) were most likely taking residence in my home for about 5+ months before I even noticed that I had a problem of some sort. By that time, AN ENTIRE STORAGE ROOM (combined with a food and water storage supply) located nearest the garage door (access point/entry point for the rats whom chewed one small hardly noticeable hole in the weather stripping at both bottom corners of the garage door

Excellent Services: The exterminator was professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. Hokey Pricing: When I first called the vendor and told them I was using an Angie's List coupon, I was quoted a price of $258, for an initial visit and for a followup at the end of the season. Because the wasp level did not lessen, the exterminator returned to the house the next week or so after the first visit to spray again. When I paid the exterminator, he asked for a lower amount, one I found out was for one visit only-- which was what we had really wanted in the first place. When I advised him I was told it was $258, I found out I had paid for two visits. The sales personnel never quoted me the lower amount or presented the option. I paid what we had contracted for, but I resolved not to use them in the future. Footnote: This year we received two bills for another $258, as a renewal of the contract. We never purchased additional work. I called the company three times, but the line was busy each time. I gave up, but if they show up, I will turn them away.
Description of Work: Spray pesticide around the exterior of the house for pest control (wasps). Pests continued at same level, so they came out again at no cost a couple weeks later. At the end of the summer, they came out again for an official second visit to spray again.

Ouch. This review certainly stings a little! You certainly have my apologies for not meeting your expectations or explaining the program well enough. To Clarify: The service program that you purchased is a season-long program that includes two services (the lower charge you saw was for one). It also covers your whole property for the season. The "invoice" that you received this spring is actually a renewal notice. If you wanted to have the service this season you would send in the permission slip with a check (just like you would to renew a lawn care program). Again, sorry for the confusion. I'm happy to discuss it with you further at your convenience. In the mean time, I will remove you from our mailing list so that we are certain not to irritate you any further. Have a great Summer!

First let me say that the gentleman they sent to my house was fantastic. Since buying my house I have had a depressing number of people treat me like I must not have two brain cells to rub together, but this person was fantastic! I could hear the hornets inside the wall of my bedroom and so was concerned about them being able to eat through the wall into my house. He took my concern seriously, did not talk down to me, and even checked in my attic to make sure they had not gotten in up there! I was also very impressed with the company's response to the fact that, due to weather conditions - hard rain and cold temps, the first treatment didn't take. They were very pleasant on the phone and sent someone back out right away! I am pleased to say I haven't seen a hornet in days, nor have I heard them in the wall at night. I highly recommend their services and commend the excellence of their customer service.
