Good service / great value. I would have given 5 starts, but I wish w had a regular exterminator like we had when we first started the service. It's nice to have some consistency with someone who understands past issues, etc.

The technician is great to work with and does everything he's supposed to do. I had another company saleman come by who said they do the entire yard and not just around the outside parameter of the house. I still have loads of bugs getting into my pool that are coming from my yard.

Their customer service is okay. I called them and they didn't have the answer to my question and they never called me back. Their service is pretty decent. Whenever I have data presented with the pest control guy, he comes in and asks if I need some more stuff.

They do a good job. I used to have dragon spiders around the house, he sprayed now and I don't see anything come out in front of my home. They come by monthly. It's kind of expensive.

American Pest bought out the company that I had been working with. I have three properties and they did show up to do any of the servicing under the agreements on the third property. They almost missed the fact that there was some termite damage from prior years. I'm supposed to have quarterly services for my house and a rental house. I haven't heard from them when it was time but I did hear from them when they wanted to push me to pay online. I don't want to do that because I like to have papers. I would say is the redeeming quality is that once they found their mistake, let's say they were apologetic and they promised to engage in a proper treatment plan for the next year.

The customer service is pretty good. I think that the service is average. It's not always that great. I do have issues, including mice, sometimes they are resolved in a fairly reasonable manner but you know I have had problems and I don't think that you guys are necessarily the best game in town.

The company does its job but I don't like how they give all day windows for service, and you have to call each time to schedule a shorter window. Also, this time around, I got a notification the day before the pest control person was coming to my house, instead of them writing a week in advance like they usually do to schedule the best time for service.

The only time I deal with them is when I call in to make a payment and they're always quick to answer and quick to handle my request. I have a regular service person and he's very thorough. If he's not the person to do the service, I'm a little more skeptical because I know he does the service well.

It's kind of hard to tell how well it works because it just constantly rained all summer, especially after they would come. There were just always mosquitoes so I just feel that a lot of the spraying was washed away.

They come on time and the work is fine. My regular pest control is fine but the mosquito service was poor. They could not manage the mosquito problem in my backyard so I had to cancel that program. I'm not happy with their mosquito control, but the other pest control is fine.

We got sprayed for mosquitos but every time we go out into our yard we get bit by mosquitos. So, it didn't seem to diminish the number at all. The tech that comes out is always friendly though.

We're sorry to hear that you were still being bitten by mosquitoes Leonard. Unfortunately, this has been a difficult season to treat for them as there has been a lot of rain. We do our best to adjust treatments dependent on the weather, however, sometimes there isn't much we can do to avoid it. With that being said, we do encourage our team to inspect the property for potential breeding spots and inform you of changes you can make to help get the most out of your service. Either way, anytime you feel that your treatment didn't work as expected, we ask that you give us a call and let us know so that we can take steps to make things right. Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback!

There's times when it feels like the person who comes to my work is only here for a couple of minutes and I don't get a lot of feedback. We had some ants in the house. They came by and were very good at getting rid of those but for the day to day service comes by to check bait traps, I don't get enough feedback or communication about what's going on. .

They've been a lot better, but recently I find it very hard to get timely appointments when you need them. Once they are here, they're very thorough. My individual technician who typically comes is amazing and I would rate him very high, but the overall company, I would rate lower.

I signed up for the termite service, but it's been probably over a year and the stations have never been inspected. Last fall I asked about it and they stated it was best to inspect while warm. Sumeer is gone and still no inspection.
