We purchased a 2 year contract for pest and termite control. We will have quarterly service and call if there are additional problems in between treatments.
Description of Work: They came out and sprayed the exterior of my home on first visit but I was not aware that they would not be spraying inside on that visit. I had to schedulue an additonal visit and then be out of the house for 2 hours after the spraying with my pet until the product dried. I really could not detect an odor but wanted to be safe. On additional visits we will not need the entire house sprayed so we will not need to vacate after it is sprayed inside. I have always had a pest control service so this was a little inconvenient but they said they use different products and need to make sure the house is well covered from the start.

They did very good work. I am satisfied with them, but the price is a little high. I paid about 300 dollars for a year of preventative work to help stop the camel crickets in my crawlspace. They put an application using a broadcast spreader and sticky traps, and it took care of it pretty well. The application was also termite control and most everything else in terms of insects, excluding mosquitos and flying insects. I will probably use them again, but might get other estimates to see if I can find the work done cheaper.
Description of Work: They came out to help me with a bad problem with camel crickets I had in my crawlspace.

It went fine. There were still some bugs that came through, but there were definitely fewer mosquitos. I would certainly consider having this service done again.

He informed me that the product I was using is the same he would be using. He advised to order more of the product and that it is a process. He advised I would be wasting my money by having him do the work and to give the treatment some more time, which I greatly appreciated.
Description of Work: They came and accessed my problem. I did some research prior to calling the company and purchased a product to help and I did not think it was resolving the problem.

The service was fantastic and the staff was professional and friendly. My only hesitation in recommending the merchant is that although I purchased four applications of mosquito spray, when I called to schedule my second appliation the receptionist indicated that the and quot;dealand quot; was supposed to be only one per buyer. She allowed me to have the second spray and perhaps would have allowed the remaining two if I had pushed it, but it seemed to be such a problem that I did not redeem the remaining two applications even though I had paid for them.

The mosquitoes went away for 2 weeks and they are back. They wanted me to buy into the program but I wanted to see how it worked first. Other than that, it went well. They came and were done very promptly. It worked but didn't last very long.

I wasn't entirely pleased with this deal, but I wasn't entirely displeased either. It seemed like they came and were very rushed and didn't do a thorough job. It would be worth it to me, in the future to pay the extra amount for the full price to have a good job done.

Company actual arrived early before I could meet them and sprayed the yard. I appreciated their promptness but I was unsure if my front and/or back yard was treated. They left no receipt explaining the treatment. But I can not complain because the treatment worked very well for the party and much of the rest of the summer. So I have no complaints, only that comment.

This was given as a gift for my father in law for Father's Day. From what I understand the company showed up promptly and applied the treatment and he said it really helped manage the Mosquitos the remainder of summer.

I emailed Southern Pest Control at the email provided by them as a way of contact and said that I knew they were swamped, and to let me know when they would be in my area. I did not hear back for 2 weeks. I emailed again and forgot about it for a while, but after another 2 weeks I called. The person that answered made no apoligies and said that it was the owner's email address. They had nothing on file for me, but took the information and scheduled it. I exaplained that if you're going to use email as a contact method, then someone should check it and respond -- otherwise, don't use it as an option. By that time, I had already paid for the service. However, the person who came out was on time, very professional and did a good job. The treatment has helped a lot.

Southern Pest Control were very professional. The phone was answered in a timely fashion and they were very good with scheduling, offering several options and being very flexible about having to reschedule due to weather. The guy who actually came and did the spraying arrived early, explained the procedure and the safety precautions and got on with the job. This was a great service for the promotional fee but the regular price is very expensive.
