I have had no problems with them. As far as I know they do a good job. They call when it’s time to come out, I don’t have to call them. They let me know when it’s time. I haven’t checked to see what other companies charge so I can’t grade them on price.
Description of Work: I have a contract with Russell’s Pest Control and they come out quarterly. They were here about two months ago. I pay $81 quarterly.

I have been a customer of Russell's Pest Control for over 10 years. I originally had them come and treat my home after I was hit with termites. Since then, I have maintained an annual inspection/re-application contract with them. Under the contract, they inspect my home once a year and if any active termites are found they treat the area. The company had been great! They always show up when they say they will, do a thorough inspection and even wear disposable booties over their shoes when they inspect my basement to keep my house clean. So far they have had to do one small re-treatment and they handled it promptly and efficiently. Very happy with this company and I would highly recommend them!

Russell's inspects and installs Sentricon for us. They have been responsive to termite problems, and when some were found during some other work on the house, they came and did soil poisoning very promptly. I've been happy with their service.

The gentleman that maintains our home was the one to do the initial estimate. He educated us on what the chemicals are that they use and how they work and signed a contract. Pretty sure his name is David. We have not had any problems with pests since contracting with them.
Description of Work: Russell's comes quarterly to spray our home perimeter. We ask that they call ahead of time so we can put our dog inside and they always do and always lock the gate back. Knowledgeable and friendly service.

This company has hard time keeping their employees. Each time they come out servicing my properties, it's new people. Anyway, there are plenty of pest control companies in Knoxville. If they don't value me as a customer (I have them for 10 years), I'd take my business somewhere else.
Description of Work: I have Russell Pest Control(termite+insect) for like 10 years for my 2 houses. They charge more every year, their yearly price increase outpacing our income and they leave no room to renegotiate the price. It looks like they don't value their loyal customers. So I decide to shop around again.

When they first come out they sprayed the inside and outside the house. They come out every ninety days and do all the way around the house again. They wipe the spider webs and also spray the outside of the house. I have a separate service which is termite where they have these canisters that they go around the house every ten feet apart. It has a bate in it and they come out every ninety days and check that to see if there is termite activity and if there is they put a poison. We had actually requested them to come out to do some spraying because they don't normally spray inside other than the first time. We had seen a lot of spiders on the outside of the house and a couple on the inside just because the winter was coming. I had to call them and reschedule it because of a problem I had. I didn't have any problem with the rescheduling and they came out when they were supposed to be here. After the initial sign up amount its $75 quarterly and for the termite its $250 yearly. They are excellent and all round they do a great job.
Description of Work: Russell's Pest Control came out last month for a routine maintenance inside and outside the house.

I like him because I don’t have to call him and remind him to come out. They don’t have to come in the house because their stuff works from the outside and it’s great. I’ve had no problems with the pests, but towards the end of 3 months, I might get to see a couple running around. It’s usually right before it’s due to be sprayed again. I have 3 different properties and they spray all 3 of them. I pay $100 for my house and $75 for the rental properties.
Description of Work: I use Russell’s Pest Control and I’m on their automatic quarterly service; so they come out every quarter.

We like them. They are really good. The pest control guy lets us know when he comes. They are really nice. We open the back porch and the garage. So, he sprays in those two, but he doesn?t come into our house to spray. We have a monthly service with them. When we moved in here, the house was new and we used the people that the builder used. He had the termite stuff in already. We found out who had it in and so we just used him. I am glad we did because they are very good. I am sure that the price is reasonable. They have a special guy who does just our area. He is very nice and he is always here on time.
Description of Work: We use the services of Russell’s Pest Control for pest control and termite control. Their last visit to our house was about a couple of weeks ago.

We were very pleased with Russells Pest Control. Mostly we were just happy he got rid of the rats. We also liked that he didn't ask or expect money up front. He had a real positive attitude and was a nice guy. We are still waiting for the bill to come, so I was not able to tell you how much it actually cost at this point.
