Such friendly and caring people, abundantly fair pricing. Got an appointment quickly for ground bees/yellow jackets living under my front porch after getting stung and having a pretty nasty reaction to it. Tried OTC remedies, but did not eliminate them, and I was scared to use my front porch or even mow/weed whack around it for fear of getting stung again. They were highly recommended by 2 friends, and when I saw the Angie's list reviews as well, I was sold. They came out and sprayed in the cracks in the concrete on my porch, knocked out abandoned nests in the shutters around my front door and also searched around the rest of the property. Found another area where the wicked little creatures were living and took care of that nest too. I haven't seen one since, and if I do, they told me I just need to call back. I will most definitely use for any future extermination needs and highly recommend to others as well! A+++++

After setting traps, 6 squirrels were removed and relocated. The tech then patched up where they were getting in and advised on some preventative repairs.

The bee problem was severe and long lasting. Ryan came out three times before he found all the hives. He was really persistent. Didn’t charge me extra for the extra visits. He just wanted the problem solved. I have used this company before and absolutely would again.

Went great. Ryan showed up 2 minutes ahead of schedule, inspected the area around the sink where I was having issues, and got to work. Treated both the inside and outside of my house, and even a tree that was infested in my backyard! Gave me instructions to make sure the treatment was effective, and took the time to answer all my questions.

We had a problem with black ants inside the house. Akron Pest Control came out to spray and the problem was solved. Just a tad on the expensive side, though. I would hire again.

We had a raccoon get into the ceiling of our family room. Akron Pest Control came out, set up trap, and captured and removed the animal on first day. Turns out the raccoon was a female and gave birth to 4 kits that were in the ceiling (we could hear them after mommy was captured and removed). We contacted the office and Rodger came out on Friday late afternoon. There is no attic above this part of ceiling so no easy access. After several attempts to find the kits from hole in siding with camera, and small holes drilled into ceiling with camera, we had to cut a very small opening in ceiling. With that, and not sure how he did this, Rodger lifted himself up into the ceiling (with only a couple feet of head space between ceiling and roof), and somehow found the kits and removed them with the help of Brian (another Akron Pest Control employee who showed up to assist). These guys really did an outstanding job and I would use them in the future (hopefully I won't have to) and I certainly would recommend them. It was like they took it as a personal challenge to find the kits and solve the problem. Thank you so much for the first rate service!

The Tech at this company come into my residence and harassed my lady to the point that she was crying when she told me. For example: “I would take that for a ride”, “do you have any naked pics on your phone”, “how about you put something on the next time I come over”. After she called the owner and made him aware he simple place the tech off work for three days and let him back on the job after “revoking bonuses”. Any responsible own would have taken that call and perminatly terminated the tech. This tech will still be out there in your house possibly alone in your house. REALLY don’t trust this company or their desisions. Stay safe Angie’s list users and steer clear of this company.

Response from Akron Pest Control
Akron Pest Control is taking this matter very seriously. There was no "simple" action taken with this situation as it is still on going. We are currently investigating the details of this isolated incident so that a proper plan of action can be taken. As the owner of Akron Pest Control I can promise everyone that at no time would any of our customers ever be unsafe!!

Very well. Roger came out and did a thorough check outside and in the house. He set traps and was very helpful with information and explaining what needed to be done. It took several weeks, but was very successful. He always came on the day that was scheduled and was always on time. we would highly recommend this company.

Akron Pest Control found and removed ant hill in yard, sprayed entire house perimeter, and sprayed interior areas on the floor where ants were commonly spotted. The treatment was completely successful and we’ve been ant free ever since.

The service was great! I got an appointment quickly and the service guy was polite, professional and punctual. He crawled through all the attic insulation and located the hole but saw no evidence of any kind of wildlife. He took a picture and determined that the way the drywall material near the hole had originated itself, it had to be a puncture coming up through the ceiling rather than something boring downward from the attic into ceiling below. Without evidence of any animal or pests, we never found an answer,...though we suspect it could have to do with it being in the ceiling of a teenager's bedroom,,LOL. I used a $15 off coupon and was very happy with the service and price.
Description of Work: There was a mysterious perfectly round hole in our drywall ceiling below our attic, and to me it looked like a hole from a boring bee. Since i couldn't get into the attic myself and check it out, i called Akron Pest Control.

I would highly recommend them, The trappers are knowledgeable, polite, friendly and gave me a lot of tips.The office desk is very polite, friendly, and helpful. They also brought out a night camera that they stuck in a tree so we could figure out what animal was causing the problem,
Description of Work: We have been using this company the last few months. We have been using them for critter removal. We got a contract for trapping for 1 year. They have been adding traps and if an animal gets trapped they take them away. They come by everyday checking to see of anything was caught. They have taken raccoons, groundhogs, and skunks. You do have to pay for each animal removal but its worth it. It is 100.00 for the annual service and then 50.00 and up for other animals depending on the type that was caught.
