He did all this without being intrusive, which I like very much. I wish there more people out there like him. Again, thank you very much "I gave up trying to get rid of the roaches. I called you because a neighbor recommended you. After you came out they were dying everywhere for days. It's so nice to be roach-free!"
Very nice people, but not organized.
1. The cost listed above is for two services. Drywood termite inspection and quarterly perimeter (maintenance) treatments for a year.
2. Company was recommended by structure inspectors to complete termite/pest inspection prior to purchasing home 1 year ago. This work was satisfactorily completed.
3. Less than a month after moving into new home, air conditioning contractor discovered a possum living underneath the exterior unit. I called Command and they provided a humane removal of the possum in a timely manner.
4. Because I was pleased with initial work, I contracted Command Pest Control to provide an interior and exterior treatment for ants and other bugs when I moved into new home last summer (June 30, 2013).
5. I agreed to an annual service contract that included a 30-day treatment after the initial treatment and then, quarterly treatments to follow. I asked several times (including phone conversations and email) for some type of written agreement that included ALL terms, but only ever received only a copy of the annual warranty which does not include the specific terms of service.
6. Command workers arrived and treated the exterior perimeter AND completed another interior treatment because I called and explained that we were still having ant issues inside the home.
7. I assumed the next treatment would be 3 months after the initial treatment. This should have been during the first week of November 2013. No one came. During the week of Thanksgiving 2013, I called because we were still having ant issues. I asked that the workers call ahead of arriving (I intentionally stayed home) because I wanted to speak directly with the workers to draw their attention to specific areas of concern. Command apparently double-booked the service. A worker showed up who had no idea why he was there. Later the same day, workers who had previously been to the home arrived to complete an exterior treatment. No one called in advance. The invoice I was given was dated November 7, 2013 - the work was performed approximately 20 days after the date on the invoice.
8. The next treatment occurred when no one was home and without prior notice. An invoice was left in the front door on April 15, 2014. This was not quarterly service. This was the last service completed within the contracted year. (2 out of 4 treatments).
9. Initial contract indicates that the annual renewal date should be in June of 2014 (I purchased home June 28, 2013). I had to call Command in early July and ask them why I had not received quarterly treatments as contracted and why they had not made contact to renew service for another year. During that conversation, I was told by Misty that it was close to July 4th holiday and many workers were on vacation.
10. A re-inspection and treatment were scheduled for July 10th. No one showed up and no one called. My partner stayed home from work for the day. I called a day after the scheduled appointment. Command provided an apology, offered a discount, and re-scheduled the two appointments for July 13th (One for termite inspection and one for perimeter pest treatment). The morning of the appointments, I received a voicemail message, while at work, that there was a problem. I am a summer program teacher and could not answer the phone until my lunch break. In the meantime, the termite inspection occurred (for which I paid $169.00), but the treatment did not. When I called during lunch, I was informed that the treatment had to be rescheduled for a third time. When I asked what would be done to compensate for yet another inconvenience, I was told "nothing more can be done, we already gave you a discount for the previously missed appointments."
"Mr [member name removed]- I received your above comments thru Angies List - I do apologize for you not being completely satisfied. I wish I would have been made aware of these matters earlier so I could have remedied any issues you were having. I would like the opportunity to correct and/or made up to you any problems and / or concerns you are having - your satisfaction is very important to me. I have sent you an email today 7-29-2014. I appreciate your above comments (even though they were not favorable), because without them I would not be aware of any issues - I thank you in advance in giving me the chance to earn your trust and business once again. Thank You David Galvagni Owner - Command Pest Control, Inc."
Very happy with the prompt service and quality work.
After 3rd visit and 1 month later I discovered that they only applied to my side of the ficus, not both sides. So, the ficus on the neighbors side was still infected.
I would not hire them again.
"I am very sorry the customer was not happy with the service - but I do have a few issues with the review: We treated the customers hedges (23 feet) in July (NOT OCTOBER) and there were 2 treatments at $75 per treatment. At the time of the treatment it was explained to the customer that the treatment would last approx. 2-3 months (we have a severe White Fly problem in South Florida). The customer called us in November to request a FREE Call-Back - for the White Fly spray that we did in JULY, the customer was told that there would be a $75 charge to re-treat the Ficus they were not happy. I must assume that the customer was Happy in July, August, September, and October - because they never contacted my office with any issues."
You should not have answered your phone & let your answering take your calls instead of wanting me to make appointment for Tuesday, I then would have hung up, & saved us both alot of time. So thx for wasting my time.
Misty @ Command was very efficent & was able to get ahold of Alex Morales the Technician. She called me back & the appointment was set for 11am-100p. Alex & his assistant arrived @ 1220.
To whom it may concern- should you ever need pest control give Command & save yourself time & headaches.It's nice to know there are still honest business people in Ft Lauderdale area
