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.

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.

Disappointed in service. I called mid August because I had a big ant problem that did not hold the entire 90 days. I had an appointment and then it was cancelled because the service guy had an emergency. No call was received to reschedule and when I called I was told they would be out on September 8 which was my normal scheduled date. Also, you all came out on September 8 and I complained about bees in the entire backyard and even after you treated the yard the bees are still there. The guys are always nice but the service is a problem. I most likely will not be signing another contract.

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 sales rep was extremely pushY. Didn’t want to buy or sign up. Finally signed up to get her off my front porch. Never had a cockroach or eat until I started service and then got them after treatment. Seems like it causes more issues than it fixed

We were told they would spray around our drains under the sinks. When they arrived they told us they did not do that. We were told they would get webs down, they did not. The mixed messages from the company on the first visit didn’t give a great first impression.

Treatment is due. No one has called to schedule 2nd visit - the only time someone came was in mid June. Lots of spiders inside the home, along with earwigs and Palmetto bugs. Treatment needed inside and out, as there are spiders in garage and front porch area, as well as inside the home.

I don’t ever know when you’ve come to do a treatment. There are still fire ants making mounds in my yard and there’s still quite a lot palmetto bugs in my closet. I don’t know at this point if I will renew with this company.

The service techs are great. They are courteous, personable, and thorough with explanations. Several emails went unanswered, but then I received a call to figure things out. We switched product for spiders, so I don’t have results to report on that yet.

Just don’t see the value in what I pay for. I hardly see a technician and I still see spiders. Everyone is nice but I feel like the price point is starting to out-weight the actual value in a time when subscription costs need to be cut.

I signed up for service from a solicitation at my home. They promised a lot but didn’t quite deliver. The staff is friendly and thorough when I’m home. However, they service my home most often when I’m at work and those services don’t seem to do much for pest control either inside or outside my home.

Not happy that I signed up for $45. a month, then they taised it to $50. a month. I had a contract for $45. a month. I won't be continuing their services, as this is my last month.

Effort is there. However what ever you are using is not deterring the insects. Mostly spiders. Still have them in the garage and fence is spider webbed.

Ryan was the last to come out last week. Very nice guy. He took time to answer questions and tried to do the best he could for us. All the guts who have come have been nice. However it hasn't really helped a lot. I'm not happy with the money it costs each month and still dealing with wasps, ants..

The treatment on the inside of my home seems to help somewhat. I under that I must allow for time to fully take it’s course. The outside where it was treated for ants is a whole different story, and I'm totally dissatisfied.
