They did not treat the area inside the house mentioned and the pest still remains. I am up at all times of the night trying to find a way to kill the pest that are only showing up late at night for some reason. My son was told if we needed them to come back out just text them.

If I could give no stars I would. Oh my God. Beware of Aptive! Their service will do nothing but turn your household upside down. One of their guys came out and sprayed my house. He said that I would start seeing fleas come out, but they would be dying. Well, they didn’t come out and die. Whatever he sprayed made them come out of their hiding places and multiply 1000 fold! They completely over ran the house. I couldn’t go anywhere in my house without getting bitten. I lost about a month of sleep, about $2000 replacing belongings that I lost, sleeping in hotels, buying a steamer and a vacuum and buying pesticides. In the end, I ended up having to bomb house twice to get the problem under control.. It’s the only thing that worked. Stay away from this company, unless you want fleas to take over your house . Their service is a complete joke.

This is absolutely SCAM!!!! company. I hope you will read my review before you sign the contact with them. First of all when you sing the contact you they don't tell you they change not for visit, but every month. They ready to come in the winter and spray the snow around the house what doesn't make sense. But if you cancel those visits they still charge you. Second: the spray they use is absolutely don't kill any insects. I should buy other one for ants (which help in 3 days) and they promised their spray will take affect in 3 weeks! Next thing: they will come to spray right before the rain or even during the rain which also doesn't make sense and all spray just flushed away with water. And when you tried from this useless service and trying to stop it they will tell you that you can't do it and must pay cancelation fee 200$

Aptive tech came on my property and sprayed my herb and pollinator garden with Bifen destroying it. I did not request this service. I reached out to Aptive, they said they would replace the garden. They provided me with a contact to send estimates. Suddenly, the contact they provided disappeared. (the email and phone number no longer work) I reached out again to the headquarters in Utah. I was given a different email and contact information from a new person who was "devoted to helping me". I sent him the estimates. He disappeared as well. I took them to small claims and Aptive did not show up. Now I have to file a default judgment and hope to get reimbursed to fix my herb and pollinator garden.

I hope you find this before EVER signing up for a service contract with Aptive. The fine print on their service contract is there to rip-off people just like a Time Share agreement. Their sales pitch and service plan have small important details to scam you out of your money. Initial payment was $50 for May. June was $158. July was $158. I have paid $365 for 15 minutes of service at my home and approx. $20 for the pest control spray product. Now, it's $200 for a Service Cancellation fee. Which they lie and tell you, that you are paying for the discount the salesman gave you to sign up. THERE'S A REASON FOR THIS.... the company knows eventually customers will find out the service they provide is pointless, unless you can't physically spray bug spray on your own property. If you don't read their fine print on the service contract, which they hope you DON'T read it carefully, you will be locked in for at least $600 in total payments. I was lead to believe that their monthly service was $50/mo. It is NOT. I was lead to believe there would be (1) charge of $150 for continuing service past 3 months. Wrong!! $158/mo. is RIDICULOUS (for a 5 minute visit from one of their employees). Please realize their services are NOT worth $158/mo. At my home, 5 minutes of applying a quarter-gallon of pest control spray, is NOT even worth $50 per visit. Also take note, if you experience rain within a few hours after they spray your property, it defeats the entire purpose of them being there, and is a waste of your money.

I signed up for Aptive and after several instances of technicians "mimicking" as if they were disbursing out granulets, I ended the contract. I have a 360 degree visibility of my home via my home security camera system and observed the technicians run out of granulates and then pretend to put them down on the remainder of my property. I overlooked the first instance, and then called after the second one...and several other instances is what broke the camel's back. Customer service "wiaved" the early termination fee, yet still charged me for the service that wasn't completely fufilled. I went on travel abroad for some months, and when I returned, I had a collections notice for $149, premised on the services 'rendered'. After several instances of unethical practices, it's easy to see that this is a breach of contract - however, Aptive's "management" is citing they cannot do anything since the charges are already in collections. BEWARE of this company - while their products do seem to work, their practices (by way of some of their technicians) are shady at best. I really tried to work this out, to no avail.

This company is a complete scam! DONT USE THEM! I live on over a half acre and the tech would spend only 10 mins spraying my yard and then sit in his struck for 15 mins. He also left the water running on the hose when he filled up the tank, when I mentioned this to him on his next visit he started yelling at me on my front porch. Custom service said they would have a different tech come out to service my yard, which only happened once. They send me a text message of service dates and then when it comes time for the appointment I get a text that says, “an Aptive service professional visited your home for an appointment on but it looks like we missed you.“ I work from home and have been for every appointment. To make matters worst the bug problem has only gotten worst since having their service.

WARNING OF FRAUD AND APTIVE CHANGING CONTRACTS WITHOUT CUSTOMER KNOWLEDGE On 12/4 , Aptive serviced my premises as they have been doing since 2017. Shortly thereafter I received a new contract dated 12/4 but fraudulently signed and initialed by my wife. It stated the contract was reviewed and all terms agreed upon. The fact is no one talked to us about the contract or terms, nor did we sign or initial anything. Even though docusign was supposedly used, no notification of documents for review and signature was ever sent. Plus contracts are not being encrypted when sent despite containing sensitive PII data. Since Monday, i have attempted to get an explanation and continue to get the runaround and no one will put me through to senior management saying I'd get called back which never seems to happen. I would encourage everyone to review their contracts, verify signatures and initials and confirm that Aptive didn't create fictitious contracts as they're done with me. Fraudulently signing documents and manipulating terms without customers approval is illegal yet seems to be a policy of Aptive. For your protection - check your contracts and if you didnt sign and approve the contracts - report it and find another service.

Disappointed with this treatment. Very short stay and although noted that the entire “perimeter” of my home was treated, the tech only did the front yard. Since signing up my visits have been getting shorter. After each visit I am texted photos. Did not receive this time but did see they were part of the receipt on line. Only 4 or 5 and only the front yard…Why? My wife and I were home and our dogs were in. At $180 per visit / treatment, this is concerning. I have Ring cameras around my home so I know what was done. If this continues I will end the relationship.

Aptive goes door to door like home security services and I decided to give them a go. The problem is you do not get the same technician each and everytime and the difference in technician proficiency is like night and day. First of all, they do not let you know they are arriving and when they come to your door it is much of a surprise rather than letting you know in advance so you can place the appt on your calendar. Second, since it is always a different technician, they don't know where specific insect traps are set so they don't know to service them. getting out of contract with them is expensive, I will never use them again.

As per the home’s cameras…Arrival time 11:48am and was driving away by 12:05. The technician walked around the house twice Once to remove cobwebs and a second time to sprinkle something. In both instances, minimum effort was applied. I barely saw him do anything other than hold a cell phone in one hand and the pole in the other. You want me to pay for the service of someone doing a couple laps around my house. I’m not an expert but I’m not sure how that is limiting the insects from my property. Generally I am happy the service and the quality of the technician, but this was ridiculous!!!!

Sorry product with sorry business practices. Huge ripoff!! 100% do NOT recommend. You’d be better off buying a spray off of amazon and spraying your house yourself. Their sales rep initially said that I could try 1 service to see how it worked. Then when they showed up to do everything said I could only sign for a year contract. They have a $199 cancellation fee, so I was very hesitant about signing. But the sales person assured me that if the service wasn’t working, they wouldn’t charge it to me. They then did the service, removed spiderwebs, sprayed inside and outside. Gave me some cheap crappy fly catcher blue light plug in. I noticed their spray killed 1 roach, and made some outdoor spiders actually come inside the windows. The second time the came, they only sprayed outside. I tried their service for 2 months, mainly for the spiders. I still have tons of spiders and spiderwebs. I called to cancel, because $684 a year, or $57/month, is too much to spend on a service that doesn’t work, especially for a single mom… and of course, I had to pay $199 to cancel because their sales rep just spouted off a bunch of lies to get me to sign. Now I’m a single mom, out over $300, that still has a bunch of spiders.

Canceling my contract with this company. Used to be great but has gone downhill. A few months ago I took off from work to be there for service (to let them in our home), but the tech showed up and left saying he didn't have time and to just reschedule. I gave them another shot and again took off from work to let them in the house, but the tech came sprayed the outside and just left. When I complained the first time, I did not hear back from the company. The second time I called to complain, their solution was a $20 discount off of shot $300 worth of service charges. When I didn't even end up receiving service at all one of those times. Save your money and your time. Look elsewhere for service.

The technician showed up at 8:00PM called me 5 times until I answered. Rang my doorbell 3 times, woke my daughter up in the process, and didn’t even wait until I opened the door before heading back down to his vehicle. He made excuses as to why he was late telling me stories about wasps nests and how Aptive makes him drive too far during his day. Then proceeded to continue to call me at 8:30 at night to come open my gate in my backyard because he couldn’t see the latch..he was wearing sunglasses…..he sent me 7 different text pictures of him spraying, all were blurry and didn’t show anything. By far the worst service we’ve had with Aptive.

Service tech arrived at our home when it was pouring rain. He did not have glue boards with him to swap out which were in the garage or in the basement. I asked him about spraying specifically around the upper exterior & under of our deck which is screened but, again he really couldn’t do it completely due to the rain. He was very nice, but I would like a free return trip out to address all these issues. Also, Not sure if the bait stations outside were reloaded either!

Mrs. S San Diego, CA

On 7/26/23 an Aptive sales guy tried selling me on some pest control services in the Clairemont neighborhood of San Diego. He didn’t provide his name or the company he worked for. Simply showed me a laminated page with some pics of bugs that I looked at warily. He asked if I was “the boss” and if the homeowners would be interested in signing up. Claimed 13 of my neighbors just signed up and he’d be back in the area tomorrow to service their homes. Wanted to cut me in on a good deal. I firmly declined repeatedly. He asked if anyone in charge would be home tomorrow. I firmly said there’s no interest and he made a note in his iPad before continuing along on his hover board. Then on 7/27/23, around 10 am he came back. He rang the bell, yelled out hello and loudly knocked on the door. A minute or so went by, and he rang, yelled and knocked again. After several seconds he attempted to to open my front door … aggressively trying to see if it would open. Fortunately we always lock and deadbolt our door! My dog was barking like crazy at this point. He then waits a moment before trying to open the door for a second time. After a few more moments he takes off on his hover board. Please be on the lookout and lock your doors! We called the company to file a complaint as well as with SDPD. Adaptive took down the info but gave us the run around when we tried to escalate the complaint and get in touch with the area manager. Very shady employees and business.
