Regular and Specialized Pest Control Plans

For all pest control services, Miche Pest Control will give a quote for free. Miche Pest Control offers a quarterly pest control plan and a variety of specialized pest control plans. All plans are covered by Miche’s pest-free guarantee — if the initial service doesn’t work, the company will return and perform the service again free of charge.

The quarterly pest control plan includes external spider web removal; barrier bug spray around the home foundation; hornet, wasp, and yellowjacket nest removal; 10-foot repellant or ant bait; crack and crevice treatments; and inside treatment at no additional cost.

Miche Pest Control has specialized pest control plans for rodents, mosquitos, tickets, and termites. Cost of these services will vary depending on how many services are needed and how much the property has been impacted by pests already.

Awards

Although Miche Pest Control has only been in business for a couple of years, it has already made a reputable name for itself. The company has won many awards, such as: Top Pro from Thumbtack for 2020 and 2021, the Super Service Award from Angie’s List for 2019 and 2020, the Elite Service and Top Rated Awards from Home Advisor, and Best of Manassas on Expertise.com for 2019, 2020, and 2021.

For many of these awards, the company had to undergo a screening process where it was checked for certifications, professionalism, responsiveness to customers, and the quality of its employees’ work. Miche Pest Control is also accredited by the Better Business Bureau and currently holds an A rating.

Advance Termite Bait Stations

To take care of termite problems, Miche Pest Control uses Advance Termite Bait Stations. These are used in place of termiticide, as they are more environmentally friendly. All products used by Miche Pest Control are registered with the EPA.

Advance Termite Bait Stations (ATBS) are more effective than Sentricon Stations. Termites find ATBS more quickly because they are larger and contain more bait than Sentricon Stations. ATBS can be used to eliminate existing termite infestations and to proactively prevent them.

Positive Reviews

For a company that is so new to the pest control industry, Miche Pest Control already has a lot of positive reviews online. There are some negative reviews as well, but a vast majority of reviews about the company are positive. Even in the case of negative reviews, the company responds tactfully and works to improve the customer’s experience.

The Bad

Pricing Transparency
No Bed Bug Control

Pricing Transparency

Without obtaining a quote, it is difficult to estimate the cost of Miche Pest Control services. This also makes it difficult to compare the company’s offerings to others in the pest control industry. Typically with quarterly or annual plans, pest control companies will disclose prices for the basic packages — but Miche Pest Control does not. It is unclear if the company locks customers into a contract or if customers only pay for individual services.

No Bed Bug Control

Miche Pest Control does not supply bed bug control services. Bed bugs are slightly less common in the Northeast United States — where Miche Pest Control is located — but still impact residents in this area.

The Bottom Line

For residents of Washington D.C., Maryland, and Virginia, positive reviews and awards indicate that Miche Pest Control could be a great pest control provider to work with. The company supplies most of the common pest control services; however, customers who are seeking bed bug control will need to look elsewhere for this service.

Team Akseizer Alexandria, VA

It began with a walkthrough of our property by a salesman, not a professional pest technician. He makes you believe he is the head of Miche operations, who runs the crews that come out to your home, promising along the walkthrough that he personally oversees the work when Miche crew members come to fix your pest control issues. He further convinces you that an experienced crew will seal the cracks inside and outside your home, offering a 99% chance Miche Pest Control can solve your pest issues. We were promised Miche would seal our crawl space, seal the exterior from pest entry, and perform clean up/sterilization wherever activity was found indoors, all for an overpriced price tag of $2199. We agreed to pay that crazy amount, if and only if, they got rid of the issue and if he was present to oversee his crew the day of, walk them through all the issues, and make sure they did their absolute best work possible. When the day arrived for the work to be completed two workers showed up without a supervisor. They knew nothing about a supervisor, what was in our contract, or what needed to be done. I had to walk them through the property all over again myself. They told me they would start in my recently renovated indoor home office. After 30 minutes, I walked in them spraying bright neon orange spray foam along all the moldings, up the walls, and outlining my office (see pics). In shock, I kicked them out of the house and asked to speak to a supervisor. Knowing I had to get Miche Pest Control to fix the awful damage, I played nice with the owner named Angel, who at first denied that this was an issue, but shortly after coming to my home and seeing the disaster, promised she would get it fixed. She even offered to do the pest control work for free. After a few weeks, someone finally came and spent two days repairing my office and all the damage that was caused by their workers. After several attempts to contact Miche and Angel for the free pest control work, I realized I was clearly being ignored, and finally gave up on Angel’s empty promise. A serious warning to anyone looking to hire this company, I found out that the owner has had many issues before, and that her crews were always making these types of mistakes. Be careful hiring them before this happens to you and your home, because if I hadn’t threatened lawsuit, Angel had no intention of fixing the damage, and clearly didn’t keep her word when she offered free pest control. There are plenty of other pest control companies that will professionally solve your pest issues. Hire at your own risk, but my advice, stay away!

If this is a “family” business I’d sure hate to see what they do with enemies! Long story short: termite inspection was negative preclosing. Closer inspection yielded termite infestation throughout the bathroom kitchen and joists after closing! Their solution after confirmation of termites and stating they’d “do the right thing”:refund $49 and declare no responsibility for the error even though another pest control agent immediately noticed a dead tree stump next to the house swarming with termites! If it’s integrity you’re looking for in a company, don’t look here!
