Due to the rain the first time they were scheduled they could not spray for mosquitos so they only did the termite and then they came for mosquito when they could spray and it has helped a lot. I just wish it would only kill the mosquitos and not the bees. I still see bees in my flowers so that is a good thing.
Description of Work: Mosquito spray and termites but the termite was a separate purchase.

I would never use or recommend Southern Pest to anyone.
Description of Work: We were told the package provided spraying inside the house and outside as well. When the technician got there he said he recommended only spraying the outside. Within a few days we had ants back all in the house again. When I called the company, I was told the technician should have sprayed inside the house. However, the solution that was offered was to have the inside sprayed, but the earliest time available was over a week away. We contacted a different pest company to come out and help resolve our issue. We were told the chemicals used by Southern Pest were not potent enough for ants. Once the other company sprayed properly, the ants were gone!!!

They were friendly and polite over the phone. It turned out that I was too far away from them, so I contacted Angie's List for a refund. I would have appreciated it if they contacted me and told me sooner, but I understand they're probably busy with other Deals.

This is the second year in a row we have taken advantage of this service. They were out here very quickly, and did the work without disturbing anyone in the home. Only qualm is that they were so efficient, they didn't conform they were coming out on the day of service. Didn't turn out to be a problem, though.

I killed a couple of black widow spiders in my garage and was looking for an exterminator and saw this and quot;big dealand quot; on angies list. This $55 dollars was applied to a two year service plan. I graded the provided overall pretty well. They responded quickly and the service they offered was exactly what I was looking for and at a good price. There is no set schedule they can come anytime you call them. I did not grade an overall and quot;Aand quot; because this was a big deal of $55 valued at $200. Many of the items mentioned in the deal such as sweeping eaves for spider webs and bees nest and filling cracks, where bugs might enter, was not done and the technician indincated that they did not do that and didn't know why that was advertised. I was not really looking for that, but thought I should point out in case anyone was looking for that service. The deal was I received was actually in their spring flyer and anyone can get whether an angie's list member or not. So while I am happy with what I am receiving, it was not a and quot;big dealand quot;.

The technician was friendly and prompt. 2 weeks later, I am still seeing ants on the inside of the house, and there are ants outside near the house, so I am not sure how effective the spray was. It could just be a very bad ant season, and maybe the spray is better for other pests, besides ants.
Description of Work: I purchased an offer for spraying of pests. I was having an issue with ants. The technician arrived on time, and he informed me that in order to get the indoors sprayed, I would have to vacate the house for 2 hours (and keep the pets away from the area). I had not been informed of that by the office assistant who scheduled the service, so I told him just to spray the outside.

Easy to schedule the service. Office staff was very helpful and friendly over the phone. The manager, Rick was incredible when he came to our house to perform a termite inspection and spray the inside/outside/perimeter of home for insects. Extremely knowledgeable and hard working. He definitely believe in his product. He was on time and extremely friendly. Said to call anytime we needed service, which is part of the plan.

They were very thorough, gave excellent advice about a number of things. The initial technician arrived on time and did a very complete job of inspecting the house. The treatment was done in professional and knowledgeable manner. We feel like we got more than what we are paying for, and we expect to use this company for all follow-up service. These guys are just good!!!

They did a good job and we were very satisfied. They came and went and we didn't have mosquitoes so it was a good thing. The price was reasonable; it was around half price. We would absolutely use them again.

he sprayed the entire perimeter of the house and yard to rid and repel mosquitos.
Description of Work: What really impressed me about this company is that the guy came out on 2 scheduled days and told me that he would suggest rescheduling as rain was in the forecast. He said that if it rains within 24-48 hours after spraying, the power of the chemical is dramatically diminished. The chemical to rid and repel mosquitos really needs to be able to soak in. I was so impressed that I asked if he would consider a group discount if I could get several of my neighbors to use him as well. he said yes.
