Stayed up all night bagging clothes to expedite the process get a call 30 minutes after the scheduled time from the apt manager saying Burns called and canceled and said they might get out here before the next normally scheduled weekly visit they make to the complex, they put me and my family at risk as my wife has an asthmatic reaction to the bites and they put the apartment management company in potential legal trouble by not showing up within the 7 day period required by AZ law after the manager receives written notification that bugs were found. I would never recommend any business that agrees to do something and then backs out of it especially when there is a health risk to their customers

When they show up as scheduled, they do a very good job. The problem is that lately, they schedule an appointment with us and then show up on a DIFFERENT DAY!!! Then they reschedule for the afternoon, and they SHOW UP IN THE MORNING! Getting our service should not be this complicated. We probably will not renew when our contract is up.
Description of Work
We have used Burns for over a year to provide pest control services for our new home. We paid for an annual contract.

Service Provider Response

Hi [Member Info Removed], I apologize for all the confusion. We had a software conversion in January and we have been working hard to work out all the bugs. Unfortunately, your issue was one of the bugs we have been working on. You should receive a call from a Supervisor so that we can resolve this issue for you. Again, I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.

I was told by Northwest that I had drywood termites but they do not treat. I called Burns out and I pointed out the piles I saw and he said they were Drywood termites and I could have them spot treated. He emailed me a quote for the service. Turns out it was ONLY cricket poop!!!

It was okay. I think their prices are a little high. I used them about 8 or 9 months ago, then I didn't use them any more, and we got our own thing and my husband started doing it himself. I wanted somebody out for one day, but they didn't do that, so they wanted us to be on a contract. They also do weed control, but they were going to charge me over $200 just for the front yard. They were fine as far as quality. They were very responsive. I would probably not use them in the future because of the price.

I have used Burns since moving to Arizona in 2010 at 2 different properties. I cannot say enough about the professionalism of the staff, both in the office and field. Easy to get a hold of, reschedule appointments if necessary, to respray if there is an issue, etc. They are not the cheapest service out there, but their service has been remarkable.

I just want them to do a good job so they don't come back. They came out every 2-3 months. They came out and gave a treatment and less than 3 months later, I still had termites. I haven't even used them a year yet, and I still have termites.

We called a company that we didn't get from Angie's list and I can't remember. We had 2 different people out and Burns finally came out and finished the job right. They were professional. They did the job right. For followup, they weren't real good with the followup because we have other things going on like termites that they've not gotten back to me on. They are pricey but anybody is anymore.
Description of Work
We used Burns last fall. They didn't charge us. We had a beehive in our wall.

Were quick to come out and evaluate the problem and recommend a solution. Set up traps/bait for 5 weeks and checked them once a week. Caught a number of rats and have not seen evidence of any additional activity. Offered follow on service and checks for additional fees but I decided to defer unless additional activity was noted, and they did not push or pressure for additional service. Will definitely use them again if needed.

We were very disappointed in the quality of inspection provided by Burns. If you look on their website, they only describe how they deal with one kind of termite: subterranean. There are also drywoods, which do not leave the same signatures, and cannot be treated in the same manner. They did not find evidence of drywoods on the pre-purchase inspection (I don't know if they looked the first time, but they didn't the second). When we called them back after seeing evidence of drywoods, the inspector essentially refused to look for them. We pointed to the exposed beams where we thought they were, and the inspector would not get on a ladder to look. He kept saying that he hadn't been doing this that long, and took some pictures to send back to the main office. He didn't even take pictures of all of the problem areas, he just kept looking around the perimeter of the house for the other kind of termite. Needless to say another company came out, confirmed that we had an infestation and treated it. I strongly recommend against using this company for an inspection. Their quote for a subterranean treatment was reasonable -- but it didn't address our problem.

Money well spent for the annual warranty. As the saying goes, there are two types of houses in AZ. Those that have termites and those that will.
Description of Work
Shortly after purchasing my home in 2004, I discovered termite tunnels in my master bath. Burns treated the exterior of my home and the interior tunnels. They were very professional. Just over one year later I discovered tunnels in my garage and laundry room. Since I had enrolled in the warranty service, there was no charge for the return service to retreat those areas. Money well spent for the annual warranty. As the saying goes, there are two types of houses in AZ. Those that have termites and those that will.
