Several years ago we encountered wasps and mice at our home. We contacted Permatox and they connected us with Blade. Within two weeks of his initial contact our problems were GONE! He takes the time to listen to your issues and he makes a plan to execute! We have now sold the old property and hired Blade to develop a preventative treatment plan for our new home. If you need results contact Permatox Pest Control and request BLADE JENKINS!

Critical: Professionalism I have used both Terminix and Permatox and once you sign a contract with Permatox you will not be allowed to skip a treatment. My wife and I had 2 treatments we could not get out of even though we didn't live in the house due to renovations. Terminix allowed me to skip treatments. Petty. Service: General pest inspection
