I've only had my first treatment but my technician, Dylan, was professional/knowledgeable and explained the best course of action to deal with our specific issue and why. The price was incredibly reasonable for services included. Fingers crossed it works and I can update my review. Services: Bug & insect extermination, General pest inspection, Cockroach extermination

David came out and was great at explaining what he was doing and quickly installed a termite trap that the landscaper had dug up. David was a great communicator. I believe he was the manager, so I was fortunate it was him who stopped by.
