Description of Work: We needed our house sprayed on the outside to stop bees, wasps, flying insects, etc. from taking over. They were prompt in coming out, and professional, knew what they were doing. I'm not sure I would use them again, unless the problem I encountered can be solved. The problem I had was with the spray used on the house. When they sprayed around the windows it caused drips to run down the windows. I was told the rain would wash those off, but we have overhangs that prevented that from happening. I had just had my annual cleaning of my outside windows a month before, so I had to look at those streaks for a long time. Now I will know better, and if they will rinse the windows off after spraying I would consider using them again.

Description of Work: They have performed numerous services for me, personally, over the years, as well for my clients; termite inspections, carpenter ant treatment, and removal of wasps and hornets. They have always met or exceeded expectations. I recommend this company without reservations.

Description of Work: We had bees that had moved into our window frame. They came out looked at the situation and sprayed our home so the bee situation would go away and not be a problem in the future. This company was very responsive and professional.

Description of Work: I have used Central Exterminating many times over the years, routinely to treat for yellow jacket and wasps nests each spring. Central has also treated my property for ants and large anthills. CE technicians are consistently punctual, professional, and reasonably priced.

Response from CENTRAL EXTERMINATING
NOT KNOWING THE SERVICE AREA, I CANNOT ADDRESS THE BRANCH OFFICE THAT PROVED TO BE UNRESPONSIVE. THIS IS NOT OUR PRACTICE, TO LEAVE CUSTOMER''S "HANGING." WE VALUE ALL CUSTOMER BUSNESS AND SERVICE REQUESTS. IT IS UNFORTUNATE THAT THE MEMBER, ON HER SECOND CALL, DID NOT ASK TO SPEAK TO A SUPERVISOR OR BRANCH MANAGER. I''M CONFIDENT THAT HE WOULD HAVE EXPIDITED HER SERVICE REQUEST. CHARLES KETTLER, G.M.

ON LEARNING THAT YELLOWJACKETS HAD INVADED MY HOUSE, CENTRAL TREATED IT AS AN EMERGENCY AND SENT THEIR EMPLOYEE WITHIN A COUPLE OF HOURS. THE TECHNICIAN CALLED TO GIVE ME A REPORT AFTER COMPLETING HIS WORK AND GAVE ME HIS CELL PHONE NUMBER TO ENABLE QUICK RESPONSE IF THE YELLOJACKETS REAPPEARED. CENTRAL GIVES A 90-DAY GUARANTEE.

THEY EXPLAINED EVERYTHING AND PROVIDED ALL OPTIONS. HE USED CHEMICALS THAT WOULD NOT AFFECT MY ALLERGIES OR SMELL UP THE HOUSE. I REALLY APPRECIATED THAT. THE MAN WAS VERY PERSONABLE AND GAVE THOROUGH EXPLANATIONS AND INFORMATION. I THOUGHT HE DID A VERY GOOD JOB OVERALL AND THEY WILL ALSO COME OUT WITHIN 90 DAYS AND DO ANOTHER TREATMENT AT NO CHARGE, IF NEEDED.
