The receptionist or saleswoman who answered the phone was the nicest and most cheerful person I've ever been on a sales call with in the last 10 years. The company is very responsive and very helpful, we've only had to do a follow up twice in the past 8 years we've used them. We had an issue recently and they scheduled us the same day that we called them! Excellent service!

I've been a customer for many years. The company was recommended by a friend and the Tempco people have always been friendly. I was always happy with the service and didn't experience any bug issues however in the past six months I've had to call back because the ants were all over my front entrance, under the garage door and mostly around my pool. I always have to request that they do a spider web wipe down since it was never done automatically.
I pay $65 for two months. They sprayed on 3/28 and this week the ants are over running my pool deck. I called today and they did not offer to re-spray. The woman didn't mind that I was unhappy and told her I was going to call another company. So much for being loyal to a customer.

Tempco Pest Control aren't only my pest control providers, they are my friends. With so many big bug companies around, it's nice to know that when it comes to pests, I can count on a local company that's family-owned and operated to be sure my pest problem becomes their pest problem. which means it stops being a problem. They are professional, on-time, reliable and all around great people to work with. I use them for indoor pests, lawn care and they handled my attic restoration. They are very knowledgeable and friendly.

We had them come spray our house about a week ago and it has been nonstop with the pests. We have seen more spiders now( granted the guy said it wasn't directly for spiders ) but it can't just be a coincidence. We have noticed multiple flies trying to get in our home, we have killed over 50 now just inside the house. We have another wasps nest being built at the base of our roof where it meets the walls( outside ), and beetles are just hanging out outside the windows and doors.
I called back to try and see if there is a resolution and was given a sales pitch as to how expensive and well there products Are which ended the conversation from my end. Whatever they did/ Do, doesn't work I would not spend your hard earned money with these services, choose ANY other place.

We were hearing noises in the attic and called our Association Manager and she called in your company, Tempco, to respond to our problems. Your technician came on time each and every time scheduled and very professionally eliminated the problem. He was genuinely concerned with doing the best job for us. There was never any mess or fuss. He was very courteous and efficient. We were very happy that we had a good experience with a negative issue because of your technician and team. Thanks Tempco.
