It was good initially bit they kept showing up late and they were not doing a good job.
Description of Work: We used Dodson for pest control. They did initial inspection and we signed up for monthly plan where they would come out and check the stations and spray around the house to keep bugs out.

Description of Work: I have used Dodson Bros Exterminating for the past year and for a year or so at another apartment. They spray around the outside of my house every 3 months. He always calls the day before to let me know he'll be coming and to ask if I'm having any problems bug-wise. They are very professional. I highly recommend them.

They always called before applying a treatment, and were always professional and courteous. We seemed to see several different workers, and one alluded to them have a lot of turnover and being short-handed at times. Our dog showed no ill effect from the treatments, just as they promised, and I had much less of a problem with stinkbugs this year.
Description of Work: Originally contacted them about being infested with mice. As described in a previous review, this went very well. This year they sold me a package of outside spraying treatments for pests.

lled our contract but did not offer any refund. I cannot find my old contract so I cannot be sure of the date
Description of Work: He sprayed the interior of our home for insects and placed mice traps. H e said we would never see another interior bug again. We were then hit with a load of interior stink bugs and he indicated that it had been warm, and nothing is really effective for stink bugs. That was never told to us upon signing a yearly contract. When we complained he cance

Jeff was punctual and was neat and professional in his appearance and demeanor. He explained more to me about mice than I ever realized that there was to learn, and showed me why I had obtained such mixed results with my traps. He explained the treatments he wanted to perform at great length, and the only part that made me hesitate was that he wanted to sign me up for a year's contract for $300 in addition to the day's work. After explaining why and assuring me that their products were safe for pets, I did buy into it. My mouse and mouse dropping sightings have since disappeared, and I am very happy with the service I recieved.
Description of Work: I initially just wanted an evalution and recommendations for courses of action I could consider, but after doing that Jeff said he could provide a treatment and set some poisonous mouse traps that afternoon if I agreed. I went ahead with traps, an application of spray, and a signed a contract for six more applications over the next year.

He was very professional and explained every step to me. Even what would happen to pests - mice will die and ants will live happily outside my house. I signed up for pest control maintenance (at $60 every 2 months) and feel quite comfortable in calling with any questions or problems - so far, pest free. Very prompt, polite, and efficient. Love them!
Description of Work: On first visit checked inside and out and explained to me why I had ants and an occasional mouse or two. Came back and sprayed inside and out for ants. Closed suspected mouse entryway with steel wool (can't do much more...I rent). Also put sealed box with poison bait under sink for mice to nibble on and go home.

Went fine and on schedule. Termite results cannot be evaluated unless and until termites might appear. The company presents that they will inspect the home thoroughly each year and come out in between annual visits if we feel there is a problem. Company will treat house every two months for other pests (or more often if needed). Since this is a long-term service it is too soon to give a final evaluation. Note: The company has a phone number listed as Berkeley Springs, WV but that number rolls over and is answered at the Winchester, VA office. This does not affect the service one way or another but I suspect that reports in Angie's List for Berkeley Springs and for Winchester offices were actually all fulfilled out of Winchester.
Description of Work: Complete treatment of perimeter of house for termites (injection of termiticide into soil) and application of pesticide for other insects around outside of house, mostly on lower levels of walls. This was following an inspection and determination of no active termites and a good bill of health for the structure. Treatment was thorough and service was professional and friendly (no drilling in basement or in ground-level slab floors), in conformity with WV regulations. Purpose of procedure was to open a new warranty on the home because of ever-increasing annual fees with Terminix. Fee included the one-time termite treatment, first-year bimonthly pest treatments, warranties, and sale tax. Lower annual fees hereafter are expected to cross break-even point in 5 -6 years, compared with Terminix, and service seems to be more personable.
