Description of Work: I have brown recluse spiders, mice and wasps living in the house, siding, attic, etc. I explained this to the call center who quoted me a price and said they could get rid of everything (even though my research says they can never get rid of brown recluse spiders, just reduce the population. When the guy came out to spray, he handed me a contract with check boxes on it and had checked spiders, not brown recluse spiders (which require a specialized treatment plan). I wrote on the contract about the brown recluse, so there was no confusion and that I have birds in the house and need notice to get them out before treatment. The next treatment was supposed to be the next month, then would go to every other month for the next year. No one showed for the next treatment, or contacted me about it. I called the local office and spoke to a woman there who was very rude in saying I did not pay for brown recluse treatment, only spiders, to which I explained I know exactly what I asked for both to the call center and the tech and had 2 other witnesses present for both conversations. She argued with me awhile, then checked the contract and said the house was treated the first time for brown recluse, but it is not what I paid for. I finally got her to schedule a tech to come out. When he came out, I asked what he was treating for. He said, "You said you have brown recluse spiders". Okay, so we're finally on the same page. I thought maybe the office would change my cost to over double what I paid, as recluse treatment starts at $300 for the first month. He treated, but did not pick up any recluse traps or put down any new ones in areas that have high spider traffic. He did put dust in the attic, which the first guy did not do. I'm not supposed to have treatment again until January, but have seen spider the past week or two, so we'll see if they actually will treat again, at no charge, for in between visits. ||We are now working on having them clean out the attic and put pest control insulation down to help rid my house (that I have only owned for 1 year) of these dangerous spiders. We'll see how that goes.||Since the spider hibernate til spring, I will have no idea if treatments are working or not until then.

They sprayed chemicals both in the interiors and exteriors of the house. They were very careful about the chemicals they used as we have very sensitive skin that reacts instantly.

It is a good company. I've used their services for a long time. They took care to treat the cracks and voids where the centipede could be. I've seen a reduction in the infestation and repeat pest controls will definitely rid my house of these disgusting creatures.

Over and above spraying cautiously and thoroughly, they were very kind and explained FAQs about the chemical they used in the house to get rid of termites in the house. So that we were aware of the side effects, if any. I appreciate that.

They come every month for pest control. They look the house all over. Then they spray all around the corners in the house and also in the garage for the ants and spiders. They are very friendly and listen to whatever I need to tell them. I'm happy with them.

I call Orkin Pest Control every four months to do an inspection of my home, and if necessary, a treatment for ants, termites, roaches, and mice. They are quick to call me back and set the appointment. Their employees are very courteous and polite to me. They explain what they have found and what chemicals they will be using. I have never checked prices of other companies, as I am very happy with Orkin Pest Control. When the workers leave I have very little cleaning left, although I do wish they would be a little more conscious of the plants that I have and not get chemicals on them.

We have a contract with them and they set an appointment time with us to spray our home. It is done very quickly and there is no prep work involved. The chemical they spray is odor free and harm free, which is great.

The last pest control we had didn t do half of what this one did. Orkin explained every little detail and they used different types of pest control like foam, granules and spray for different parts of your home and yard. They had a very good product and they would come out 6 times a year for their service.
Description of Work: They spray inside and outside for spiders and ants. They sprayed inside the wall, around the baseboards, around the yard, the foundation and in cracks. They price reflects a yearly rate.

Orkin did a good job. They showed up when they said they would. They sprayed thoroughly. They have kept the pest away. If I ever see problem, I just call them and they send someone right back out. I've used them for twelve years now.
Description of Work: They sprayed around the baseboards & closets inside of our home, around the outside perimeter for spiders, ants and roaches. We pay $70 every two months.

The technician that came out to treat the house for termites did ok, but they also come out every two months and spray the inside and outside for all types of bugs. The last time they were out here, the guy left his container with the chemical in it on my car, and I wasn t happy about that, because my dog could have gotten a hold of it. I thought it was carelessness. They changed personal and they are way over-priced.
Description of Work: My house had termites, so the technician drilled holes in the side of the house and around the house to treat for them. He used a chemical in the holes and I paid three thousand dollars for the termite treatment, but it is a lifetime guarantee, so if I have damage to my house, they have to repair it.

They did an excellent job on calling before coming out and showing up when they said they would. I liked them and have been using them for a few years. I was 100% satisfied with their work. As far as I know their product was pet and people friendly after it dried. If I had any problems they did a free service call and wouldn t have any problems coming out.
Description of Work: I had them spray my 2 story, 4 bedroom home for ants. They spray quarterly and they also do a free inspection for termites.
