Description of Work: There are a number of reasons why I use and will continue to use R&D. (1) Since we have retained R&D for semi-monthly treatments, we have never had an ant problem in the house, (2) in our current home, while our next door neighbor has a huge rat problem, we have none, (3) we have indoor/outdoor pets and are confident the treatments are safe, (4) when we had a minor termite invasion

Description of Work: I have been using R&D for over a year. They managed to get control of the ants in the yard and house without having to treat inside the house. They also know their bugs. They can answer questions regarding most insects/pests.

Description of Work: I use R&D Pest on a quarterly basis. They always show up when they say they will, they do a thorough job of spraying and inspecting the premises and taking care of all bug issues before they become out of control. In fact, I regularly had a problem with bark bugs with a prior service and since using R&D Pest that problem has not been seen in over a year now and I'm happy about that.

Description of Work: I have been using R&D for about a year. I decided to try them because the current pest service couldn't get rid of the ants that were taking over our house inside and out. R&D claimed they could get rid of the ant problem without treating inside the house. After one application, the ants were gone within a week! | |They treat the property every other month to keep bugs/ants under control. They know their stuff and are able to answer all questions regarding other pests. | |I'm very pleased with R&D and would recommend them to anyone who are having bug problems.

Description of Work: In March 2013 we were "bombarded" with ants in every room of the house as well as the front and backyards. One visit from R AND D Pest Services and "presto" the ants were gone and with the exception of a few stragglers from time-to-time outside, we have not had a single ant in the house since. A great company that uses environmentally responsible pesticides and provides thorough and courteous service.
