Hydrex does as advertised. They will spray the entire periphery of your house and will sometimes do special measures if you have a certain infestation like ants, as I did once, and help to stamp it out. The only problem is their main source of billing is through a little envelope and paper which doesn't feel as professional as some companies. You can set up occasional billing over the phone through a card on file but honestly I would rather just set it up automatically. They're solid and do the job.

I had thought I was bit by a spider a few days ago and was going to call a pest control company for a quote (currently my son comes and does it every 3 months). I got home today and Hydrex Pest Control was serving my 2 next door neighbors. I asked Stephen (the technician) for a card so I could get a quote. He came by after my neighbors work, gave me a quote and sprayed around the house. Excellent prices and excellent service. They even used a brush to remove existing webs. Very impressed with Stephen and the service.

Thank you Jeni and Mike from Hydrex pest control! Throughout the years you guys have continued to give me outstanding service. It is very appreciated and hard to find lately. I am even more excited that you guys added the smoker to your services! I've had gopher problems for over a year and nothing seems to work. I've looked up remedies, I've asked friends, nothing helps. But you guys handled these pest in less then an hour. Thank you guys so much for such a great service
