Select Exterminating is highly recommended! I am a new home owner and I purchased the year/quarterly service because my tenants were complaining about spiders and centipedes. Once they serviced me, I have yet to see any of these insects ever again! The call center are very helpful in working with your schedule. HOWEVER if you ever get an exterminator by the name of DEVIN, have them send you someone else. DEVIN is extremely unprofessional and belligerent. I scheduled a service a few days ago and was told the exterminator is scheduled to come between the hours of 12-4. By the time 3pm rolled around, I decides to call and see when he would come service me. DEVIN calls me and states he is in Staten Island and he will unfortunately have to come after 4pm, unless I can reschedule. I told him it is quite alright to come later because today is my only day off. I informed him to please call me at least 30 minutes prior to arrival because I do not live nearby. I also informed the representative, who stated he will inform the exterminator. About an hour later DEVIN calls me and states he is outside. I said "why didn't you call me prior?" "I do not reside there, please give me 20 minutes to make my way over there" DEVIN says "ok" I get to the location about 27 minutes due to traffic. DEVIN states he is leaving, he did the top floor and has school and has to go. I asked why didn't you call me and tell me before wasting my time to come all the way here. He says it is not his fault, he waited too long and now he is leaving. He was very nasty and unprofessional on the phone. Initially you were suppose to come between 12-4p, came late, was very upset and hung up on me when I said I couldn’t reschedule, never completed the job, wasted my time and spoke about another obligation and was rude to top it off!!! After I accommodated him, he couldn’t accommodate me and was very nasty. Luckily for me, Ms. Lizette the supervisor gave me a free service for the inconvenience and sent someone who was excellent to complete the subpar work that DEVIN left. My whole day was over. I have never been so upset in my life. If you are choosing to go with Select Exterminators, request that they do not give you DEVIN and make sure to ask for the name of the exterminator. Good Luck!

The owner of Select Exterminating, Lloyd, thoroughly inspected my house, and the outside of my next door neighbor's house for the purpose of seeing what treatment was being used there. (our houses are within 6 feet of each other) Fortunately I do not have termites or carpenter ants. However, Lloyd explained in detail the preventative maintenance procedures available should I wish to have such traps installed around my house. My overall impression of Select Exterminating is excellent and yes I highly recommend this company to you. Yes, I will hire Select Exterminating should I decide to use preventative maintenance for termites.
Description of Work: My next door neighbor notified me that she had discovered termites in her house and wanted me to be aware that the termites could travel to my house. I spent more than an hour searching Angie's List for the right exterminator. I "hired" Select Exterminating because they have been in the business a long time and also had the best reviews, in my opinion.

The company was highly recommended to us by one of the trusted neighbors. After we placed the call and left a voice message, the company owner's family member called back immediately and was able to accommodate us for the next day, which was a blessing because the house had been suddenly infested and other companies would not be able to show up for another couple of days. Select Exterminating showed up on time the next morning, and Bucky the technician was an absolute pleasure to deal with. We also made one follow up call and the company was very responsive with that as well. The infestation was eradicated for good. This is a wonderful company that we'd love to deal with again if we need any exterminating service. Highly recommended!

Considering the winter we had, it went fine. The job took longer than they wanted and expected it to take because of this harsh weather. However, I do not have the problem anymore. The owner is even keen to admit when he (the company) is wrong and willing to say it to you in person. That is old school business practices and very hard to find now a days.

Update to my original review is that I was contacted by the manager who insisted on refunding all my money, which I consider more than kind and for which I am very grateful. I think that the problems were with miscommunications both among the company's employees and between those employees and me, but I am sure that Select is working on resolving those issues. My original review contained problems of price negotiation, timeliness, and lack of communication among employees of appropriate work to be performed at my home. I feel that a full refund has resolved the problems satisfactorily.
Description of Work: Came and sprayed driveway and around property and house foundation. Put pesticide pellets on lawn here and there (I think).

major problem/issue-while initial price of $800 for installing 22 devices was okay, they never mentioned to me that they would charge $360 for simply leaving them installed a second year--even if I did not want or need their visiting/professional services for the second year. Major issue is overall price after first year.

Technician was prompt, and thorough, explaining all t he steps as he performed them.
Description of Work: I called in the early afternoon, after not having slept because of mice making noise in my closet. I was told that someone would be there by 3 pm. Bobby was on time, and so thorough, polite and informative. He explained everything he was doing and proceeded to go through all the possible entry points, and sealed them up, set poison bait and glue traps I would use their services again in a heartbeat and I would recommend their services to anyone. Prompt, informative and so polite.

I was cooking dinner and went to get a bowl out of the cabinet and out came a roach. I screamed so loud I think I woke up the entire building. I called my parents in the morning to see if they new of an exterminating company to call and they recommended Select Exterminating who they have been using in there home for years. I gave a call to there office and spoke to Melissa who was a delite and got a service man over to my apartment by the afternoon. Bobby arrived and explained exactly how he was going to get rid of the roaches. He was there for about two hours and really made me feel better about the roach issue. I have another follow up appointment scheduled for this week to make sure they do not come back. I would highly suggest using them as there price is reasonable and there staff is exceptional.
Description of Work: I had roaches in my apartment and Select Exterminating came in right away to eradicate this issue. They performed one service and I have a follow up scheduled for this week as an extra precaution.

Great job! Will definayely use them again, but hope I don't need too!
Description of Work: Had a huge bold-faced hornets nest and a yellow jacket ground nest. They came back until the job was done, which took a few visits. They were very professional and respected my request to stay away from toxic sprays. While they didn't remove the yellow jacket nest, they gave me a safe and very effective method to remove it myself. Shop-vac at the opening running for a day or two, by the way!

I think my wife signed up for annual service from Select Exterminating after the original visit. My mother-in-law and my wife were very happy with what they did. The job went extremely well as far as I know. My wife came back and said she was completely satisfied with what they had done. They were very thorough. From 1-10 I think they were a 10. They came on time and there was not a single complaint on what they offered. Their price was satisfying.

Kameem was very thorough. Every single corner of the house, attic and garage were covered. plus 4 outside boxes were planted surrounding the house. Not one hole left uncovered. They know what they're doing.
Description of Work: Select Exterminating is the way to go! Everything about this company is professional. The receptionist was on top, and made sure everything was done right. Kareem came to my home and confronted the invasion of mice (of decades) like a warrior. He knows thy enemy. I never expected mouse problem would turn into such a refreshing experience. After speaking with a local pest control service, who threatened to call the police for asking questions -REALLY. I wondered if he was a rat himself. Definitely call this service if you want first class. K.V. Millburn, NJ
