The Good

  • Residential Pest Control Services
  • Local Pest Control Experts
  • Rodent Control

Residential Pest Control Services

Ridd helps eliminate common pests such as aphids, spiders, flies, ticks and fleas, ants, mosquitos, bees, wasps, and scorpions. 

Local Pest Control Experts 

Ridd operates in four states and deals with a variety of pests. Utah's pests generally differ from the typical pests in South Carolina. This isn't a problem for the company as Ridd hires local pest control experts. Each technician is well-equipped to handle the insects that are local to your area. 

Rodent Control

Ridd Pest Control uses the latest technology in rodent control, keeping rats, mice, and voles away from your home. As rodents can cause tremendous amounts of damage and carry diseases, getting these small critters off your property is essential. Alongside taking care of pesky insects, Ridd offers Rodent Control.

The Bad

  • No Additional Services
  • Undisclosed Treatment Plans

No Additional Services

Ridd Pest Control does not offer additional services outside of exterminating common pests. In addition to standard pest control, leading pest control companies like Terminix will also provide yard and lawn services that treat the home's exterior and lawn, attic and crawlspace service that identifies and eliminates pests in hard-to-reach spaces, and animal control that assists in the humane removal of larger animals. 

Undisclosed Treatment Plans

While the standard in the pest control industry is to provide four seasonal treatments throughout the year, some companies offer supplementary service packages that support the standard pest treatment. This includes specialized treatment options covering bed bugs and/or termite control.

Homeowners interested in RIDD Pest Control's services will need to contact the company directly to determine the exact terms of the company's service plans and, if any, additional treatment options.

The Bottom Line

Ridd Pest Control is worth looking into if you're dealing with common pests. The company offers eco-friendly solutions and sends out local pest experts who know precisely what to look for.

However, if you're looking for a one-stop pest control solution, there may be better choices than Ridd. The company does not offer termite, bed bug, or wildlife services. The company is relatively young, so it may offer these services in the future, but as of today, you'll have to look elsewhere.

What is the process for a new customer?

The RIDD team is ready, willing, and able to answer any questions you have about treatment, billing, appointments, products used, additional services, etc. Customers also have the best benefit of all: free reservices.

I love that if some ants pop up we can email and someone is sent in the next day or two. Every tech that comes out is extremely polite and full of information if I have questions.

I have had RIDD working on a pest issue and they have been amazing. I don’t do bugs…and it’s upsetting when they start showing up out of no where! They handled it quickly and professionally. Everyone has been great, kind and easy to work with and if there was something they didn’t know the answer to they found out asap. I appreciate the work ethic and not just blowing it off and passing the buck.

Great company, great customer service. They come out when they say they will, and will do additional services if required. All the techs are knowledgeable and absolutely helpful in identifying issues. Even in the south their product and frequency of treatment keep the bugs away. The biggest issue I had was mosquitos, by the second treatment I did not have any trouble with them.

RIDD comes quarterly as well as needed if we call them. Since we have been using them, we very rarely see any bugs inside the house, as in maybe one or two ants. They treat the exterior and interior and are always professional when they come to our house.

Service is friendly and responsive. 4 stars only because the last time I responded to a service text with the context I would like the inside sprayed but did not receive any reponse and did not get the inside done. Overall still pleased with the service and very rarely see any insects. And the service techs are all friendly and courteous

Keon was very knowledgeable and was very swift and professional. He met all of our needs and discussed our last visit to remind us of a few things. Very good employee. He communicated and let us know he was on the way in enough time for us to make it home. He explained the process in which the service would be handled.

I always get a text to let me know when they’re coming, when they’re done, and/or if they have to reschedule. I don’t have to be there when come. Customer service was great when I needed to change the date my payment was drafted to work better with my other bills/pay day.

Customer service is really good when I had issues with a payment on my account, they got it squared away. The only thing I would say I don’t like is I get notified the day before that they are coming and I’m just a person likes to know much more in advance and also what time they plan on being there since I am a busy person. I do also wish it was less since they do every other month and I know they charge the month in between just in case they need to come but I’d rather not be charged unless I do call.

I appreciate the straight forward pricing. All of the technicians have been friendly and easy to work with. Option of additional sprayings for no extra charge is a bonus. Do wish there was a better system of notifying when next appointment is rather than a day of text message.

The company has poor customer service. No one is ever on th same page. Also seems there’s a disconnect between office staff and field staff and what’s being charged and what services you’re signed up for and being charged for.

The technician was very know, professional and concerned about my concerns and cares. I appreciate the information that was relayed back to me with my concerns. I would like to know if you do the termite stations as well. I have them with another company and if it would be a bit cheaper for the two with you I’d like to merge that service in with you also.

Giving 5 star because until recently I was very happy with my services. I had one technician that was just taking photos to take photos. I could see it on my ring camera! He got equipment out of his truck and held it up for a photo and then out it back! The customer service did fix the situation by sending another one out and he did a thorough job! I do think the uniform could be updated. The brown shirt makes it hard to see the RIDD logo so I wasn’t even sure who was at my door initially!

RIDD has been very responsive, professional, and efficient. Don H has been our favorite technician. He communicates clearly and helps to educate us on our pest concerns. Don is always genuine and hardworking. He listens and addresses all the problem areas. Other technicians have also been amazing - most recently Shawn helped us out and made me feel less embarrassed of my fear of wasps. There have been times things have been missed or the service didn’t seem to work as well. RIDD’s customer service is quick to resolve any problems we have as soon we we bring them up and they schedule an extra service to make sure we’re taken care of.

Cancelled appts and did not inform before I lost work time to be at the scheduled appt. Never got rid of my ant problem as promised when I purchased the agreement. Rep that sold the program wasn't familiar with the computer application and did not explain the additional fees. Very disappointed in the service and I can't wait until my contract is over!

I throughly enjoyed talking to the young man that came to my home to help me get rid of the roaches. I wanted him to be the one to come back his name is Kainan T. He answered all my questions. I wanted him to be the one to return and rid my house of roaches. But I was told someone else would have to come. I did not like that but I have no choice.

Our regular guy is great! He's always kind and respectful and very knowledgeable. Our only issue has been getting service here when there is an urgent need and continued like ants in the kitchen despite perpetual spraying outside the house (he has pray quite a few times so it's not that he is ignoring the issue, the issue just persists). I am sure this is a problem for everyone but overall we're very satisfied.

Really impressed with the effectiveness of the service. Work was done on a new construction home and had a crazy presence of all different types of bugs. Once the house received the initial service the amount of insects around the outside of the home was down to nearly nothing. No more grass killing insects to worry about. Ants had also made their way into the unending pre move in time and now none have been seen since. Would definitely like to add the mosquito treatment to see how effective it would be due to the wooded area we live by.

I did see an increase of dead insects outside my door which was good. However I did see an increase later and had a retreat. It did reduce the amount; however, I did not like the residue left on my floors the second time. I had my first treatment June 1, according to the contract it should be done again. I would not have thought the other was considered the regular treatment since it was July 25. Or do you start the 3 months over at that point?

Initial representation of the services was good sales rep was excellent. The technician I guess did what he was supposed to do but not to the service. I was told that they hold their technicians to an give incentives to do so for their technicians. Was told they would clear all the spiderwebs and wasp nest from under my eaves. Which wasn’t done.. product seem to work good the first couple of days afterwards I am noticing an increase of bug a spider activity after only a week from treatment service . Not to pleased about that compared to other companies I have used before RIDD . Over all so far my experience with RIDD so far has been ok no major issues but only just started with their service . No billing issues like the prior company I was using . Hopefully further down the road I will have a much better review of there services and products.

I really like the techs that come out and provide service. All have been professional and courteous. I like Ridd as a company, however we have noticed that the treatments seem to be doing less and less to mitigate pests. We have seen quite a few earwigs, spiders, flies seem to be living longer than when we first went with Ridd. In addition to this, Ridd is by far the most expensive companies doing pest control. We have neighbors with other companies who are paying as little as $30 per quarter for service, and we are charged $60 monthly. We probably will be looking at competitors once our contract is up to see if we can find a better cost company to provide our pest control.

For me the extra I am paying for RIDD is well worth it. The service staff is excellent, they were able to address our on-going issues othe companies could not (fire ants, mole crickets, moles, and nesting wasps). If you want the job done right and you want to be treated right, look no further.

Ridd has done a great job since we contracted them last year. Sean is a phenomenal exterminator and I was so happy to hear that he was promoted to management. We will miss him. However, Sammy came this month and did some great recommendations and great work. The only reason I did not give 5 stars was because they missed a month and charged me anyway. I had to call to find out what was going on. They did refund my money and sent Sammy out within 3 days. So, I would have appreciated communication that Sean has moved on and no one was coming that month but they rectified it immediately after I called.

I’ve had this service for a few years now. Was with Orkin before and they never full gave us the service we requested. RIDD came by and I said what they hell I’ll try them out. I kept Orkin until I saw what they could do. I ended up dropping Orkin (they were not pleased) and kept RIDD. Never been happier. They are responsive and if a problem arises they are quick to come by and take care of it. Thanks so much for all of your support to RIDD. Hope this helps anybody in choosing between pest control options.
