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.

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.

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.

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?

When I started the service I specifically wanted them to treat for fleas and spiders and then on my second service they said they were treating for spiders and that the flea treatment was a separate charge and if I wanted it I would have to call office and add to my service plan. If I knew they were going to sell me something I wasn’t going to get or would not honor what the salesman ‘sold’ I would have not purchased service. And I couldn’t cancel early bc I would have to pay the difference that I saved starting service.

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.

Ridd is prompt in scheduling getting back with you and getting the technicians out to your house. Earwigs have been very bad this year so they have had to keep coming out in between services but they’ve done it. No problem.

Technicians have been very knowledgeable and performed quality work. Every technician took their time and have been very meticulous in job performance. Dislike is that treatment doesn’t last as long, however RiDD will keep coming out upon request.

I have had monthly service with them for about 7 months now due to german cockroaches in my kitchen. They have improved but I do feel like they should have gotten rid of them completely by now. So that's my only negative thing to say, the workers are all very friendly and helpful.

I like that I can arrange extra visits if need be, and that they do interior and exterior control. The only thing that can be challenging is to be home for interior last minute.

I would prefer that when you stop by every other month to spray outside that you drop a receipt in my mail so I know you were here. Bugs doing ok so far. Have seen 3 palmetto bugs in the past 3 months. Thanks Wendy

Higher end pest control. Great product and service, however make sure that you see the contract physically before agreeing. Customer service has strict policies, however they do try to make sure they are doing the right thing for their customers.

They are very thorough in their sweep of the border of the house. They are very good about staying away from the butterfly garden so that area is free from harm. I wish they would give us a little more notice on when they are sending someone out. I get a days notice and no time frame so I need to figure out letting them into the backyard.
