They were very courteous and explained everything they were going to do. They used chemicals that wouldn't harm the birds that we have in our yard. They are a little expensive, but their quality was worth the expense.

They do everything and are really good. We have had pest control services that hadn?t take care of rodents, but Bob Jenkins Pest Control does it all. They come out every quarter and charge us per visit. They are a one-stop pest control service.

Excellent overall. We have never had any problems with insects or service since we started doing business with this company. Everyone I have had contact with has been polite, pleasent, extremely helpful. Also it is nice having the same person each time. The office personel are exceptional as well. Never any billing problems or cost surprises either. Honest and "good ole fashion" customer service provided.
Description of Work: I have been using them for over a year. I signed up for quarterly service at two seperate locations. Services inlcuded inside and house perimeter insect control using sprays and baits. We have pets so it was important to us that only "pet safe" products were used.

My experience with them was fine, but I did not renew the contract with them and will be getting a price from them. Their prices are way out of line. They came out and sprayed for mosquitoes and it worked, but only for 30 days.

Response from Bob Jenkins Pest & Lawn Services
I sincerely apologize that you found our service to be anything less than excellent; we strive to please everyone by offering the best products and the highest trained employees in the industry. Our records indicate treatments were made 8-4-09, 9-4-09 and 10-2-09. All of our recurring Mosquito treatments are done on monthly basis since that is approximately the length of time the materials will last outdoors in the South Texas climate. $129.50 plus tax was the amount billed per service for nearly 1/3 of an acre. This might seem to be a little expensive, but we do offer a warranty with each treatment and our records do not indicate you had any problems with Mosquitos after our treatments. Sincerely, Bob Jenkins Pest Control, Inc.

I contacted Bob Jenkins Pest Control after searching the internet for a pest control company. We were currently residing in NC when I made initial contact. I was unfamiliar with pests that would be an issue once we moved into our new home near San Antonio. The owner of the company explained to me which pests are typical an issue in our particular area. He also explained what to expect in regards to bugs in a newly built house in a subdivision that was in the process of being developed. I told the company that I felt most comfortable calling a few other companies to get a rough idea of how much these services cost. The owner mentioned that I could check out Angie's List to read reviews on his company as well as other companies. I signed up for Angie's List after he explained that we would get a discount on our initial spraying if we became members. After reading Angie's List I was sold on this company. We easily set-up an appointment and the employee was punctual on showing up to complete the service. We had lots of questions for him for which he appeared happily to answer and educate us. We decided to go with a yearly contract for them to come out quarterly. We still find some bugs in our house however this is typical with a new house that is located in an area under new construction. With the contract we chose all we need to do is make a quick phone and let them know what bugs we are seeing. They come out within a few days to respray at zero charge.

They are wonderful. They are not a very big company, but they provide great service. I have had the ant problem for sometime and they have come twice. There is not charge for them to come back for the same problem and I really appreciate that. They are on-time, tell you what they have done and are very good at their work.

He is very honest. He showed me what the problems were. He also told me that it wasn't carpenter ants over the phone, which was our initial suspicion. He searched the property, found out what type of insects there were, and was actually able to get me a cheaper price. He saved me some money. He showed up early.

Steve showed up and spent time with me going through the house and listening to my concerns. He inspected around the house, trees, attic and problem areas and described in detail what he saw and the treatment he was going to perform. He was thoughtful of our pets and extremely courteous. He took his time inspecting the house; which was unlike many who come in, spray and then they are gone. Once complete, Steve again explained their services and left material and phone numbers in case I needed assistance. We were completely satisfied and will use them again. I have already recommended them to a friend.
Description of Work: It had been a couple of years since we had the house treated. We were starting to see ants and other bugs. Steve treated the attic, house and yard.

Excellent. Professional. When I called to make the appointment, I said that it would be necessary for the workman to go on the roof to examine the chimney. They brought the appropriate size ladder to complete the work. The entire job took 1 hour, 30 minutes. The day before the work was scheduled, the office called to confirm.
Description of Work: Called Bob Jenkins to investigate carpenter ants on my deck and to check the wood around my chimney for carpenter ants. Company thoroughly examined the exterior of the house. Also, examined 15 oak trees in my back yard. Found the presence of ants in two trees. They sprayed the entire exterior of house and all oak trees (100 gallons of chemicals). I requested that no chemicals be used that could harm my pets. They complied and assured me that it would be safe to allow the pets to go outside when the spray dried. The workman was professional and informative. The price quoted to me by telephone was accurate. I would hire the company to perform any further pest control work.

I had some kind of fire ants all over the bedroom. They sent a person called Tracy and he exterminated all of them by trapping them in a jar because we were not sure where they were coming from and I was worried if they were termites. He took the sample to their shop and later called to confirm what kind of ants they were; he said they were not termites and will not do any harm. Later, after a while the bedroom was again covered with these ants from a crack in the ceiling wall and I called them again and asked for Tracy. He came back and he sprayed all around the house to make sure the fire ants do not come back again. He was very conscientious and did his best. He explained his best about what was happening and he took care of everything to ensure we got rid of all pests.
Description of Work: I have used them twice. The last time was about a month ago to exterminate cockroaches and ants.

Regrettably we went through a month of "baiting" and monitoring before it was realized that there were no attic rats. Whatever had caused my problems was a much larger animal. This was discovered by the carpenter I hired to replace the damaged soffit. The carpenter noticed that there was a hole in the roof decking where an animal had gnawed through it. To Bob Jenkin's credit they sent their Asst. Mgr and the technician back out to examine the new evidence and they sprayed a squirell deterrent in my attic space, free of charge. Moreover they called and followed up with me several more times in the weeks following. They also put a squirell trap in my attic for 3 weeks. On the plus side, this was great customer service. More than I expected really. However, it doesn't offset the fact that they missed the mark on their diagnosis. Regardless, I am still relatively happy with the treatment and service by Bob Jenkins Pest Control. Ironically, there never were any critters in my attic. whatever it was must have failed to get through and establish a nest. To end the story, I eventually hired a roofer (off of Angie's list) who repaired the roof leak (caused by the pest) and rendered it inaccessible by other animals.
Description of Work: I hired Bob Jenkins Pest Control to identify and eliminate whatever pest(s) had damaged a 2 foot area of the roof soffit on the front of my house. The technician was prompt. He evaluated the situation from both outside and inside the attic and appeared to be very thorough. Ultimately, he felt that we had "attic rats" and outlined a plan to get rid of them. I paid $199.50 for the plan which consisted of "baiting" in the attic space, and 6 outdoor traps (with bait). The program would include monitoring and prompt removal once the rats had been eliminated.

A representative came and set baited traps, pointed our possible places the rodents were getting into the house and recommended how the holes and creivices could be fixed. Within two weeks the animals were gone, or dead. We sealed the holes and crevices, and they removed the traps. All went easily and smoothy. The only downside was that at least one rat died in the wall. The smell was pretty bad for a few weeks. Sadly, there is no way to predict whether the animal will die inside or outside the house. Overall the service was great. They followed up and made further recommendations about how to keep the rodents away from the house. Thanks for everything!

They found carpenter ants and some holes in our roof where animals could get in. He did a quiet comprehensive evaluation and covered up all the spots so the critters couldn't get in the roof. I told him we were going to have a shower put in and he told me to call him before they finished up so he could come out and spray it right away so we wouldn't have termites in our shower. We will continue to use them.
Description of Work: We just had purchased our house and I wanted a termite inspection. They came out to provide this for us.

The experience went very well. Both the receptionist and service representative in the office were very helpful. They were able to respond the same day, and even called me when there was an opening available for them to come earlier. The service rep was right on time for both visits. Very helpful. Also, he initially said that since I had both outside/inside services, the price would be $50 more than what was quoted, but when he contacted his office, the agreed to honor the original quote (unsolicited!). Also, while they offer many other services in addition to the service i was using, the rep was very helpful in explaining the options, only when asked and did not try to "peddle" additional services.

Steve arrived exactly on time. He asked about problems (we knew of none). He sprayed inside and then asked about the attic. Our previous supplier had never asked about the attic. He went up and left bait for American roaches, earwigs, etc., rather than spray in the relatively dusty environment. Then he sprayed the perimeter outdoors. Our previous supplier left a note on the front door three times saying she had had rung the bell, found nobody home and so sprayed outdoors and left. Naturally, I could call them again if I wanted the inside done. What she didn't know was that I work from home, just a few steps from the front door, so I know she never sought to come inside. I mentioned it three times to our supplier, who always had a "reason" why I didn't hear the door bell. The last time, the woman on the phone was borderline rude, in my estimate, so we're trying a new supplier. I strongly believe in loyalty to a supplier who does good work, so now it's the new supplier's opportunity.
Description of Work: First quarterly visit, routine spraying inside and out, including attic. Said we should have flue looked at because of American roaches in fireplace.

Make a long story short, it was 3 days before the "closing date" of my newly built house and it was a Sunday, I needed someone to do a post construction termite treatment before my mortgage company would approved the mortgage loan. I called them on a Sunday morning asking for help, needed them to have everything done and paperwork filled out by Monday and they did everything I asked them to do, what more do I need to say. They are good!
