We offer comprehensive termite inspections and treatments using Termidor and IMaxx Pro. Services include free inspections, 1-year renewable warranties, and wood-destroying insect reports for real estate transactions. Non-repellent chemicals ensure safe, effective elimination.

I have been using BugMan for three years and have always had great quality service! Mike does our regular pest control as well as our annual termite inspection and he is amazing! He is very knowledgeable, friendly, professional and our dog and cat love him. I recommend BugMan to all of our local friends and will continue to do so! Service: Termite inspection

We've been using BugMan for 10 years. They're good and very responsive if we need them to come in between scheduled visits.

Report
We've been looking for a new pest control service after a few disappointing experiences with other vendors. We had our first treatment with BugMan on 3/02/21 and were very pleased with the outcome. Rick, the service tech who treated our home was great. He was thorough, polite and answered all of our questions. Shannon and Kathy were really helpful in setting up our service.

Critical: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness This company has gone downhill recently. After 30 years of good service they showed up but didn't call or ring the doorbell. Waited all afternoon and just did a cursory look at the outside. Owner David Whaley doesn't have a direct number to call. We are stuck with them as they inspected when we bought our house.

Trevor R came to do our annual termite inspection today and although I have been using their services ever since i Bought my house and have always been satisfied, never have I had such a thorough inspection. He was attentive and very intelligent and even gave me some recommendations outside of strictly termite related. very impressed and will continue to recommend them for any of your pest needs.
