After purchasing a mobile home, I found it unlivable due to the vermin living there. I called Cross Pest Control, ( used this company in the 70's with great results) and they set an appointment right away. After they saw what we were up against, they said it may take more than one treatment. The treatment was completed and I was amazed how well it worked. However, the problem was not solved, Cross returned and treated again, (no additional fee). Two years later and I have had no more uninvited guest, Cross treats my home every six months and I am one happy camper. Wouldn't use any other company after the experience with Cross Pest Control. Also, the price for peace of mind is very reasonable.

The service was as good as I could have expected. There are many choices out there, but the reality is people buy from people. My investment was in a relationship, which is 100% reciprocated. I trust they will always have my best interest in mind.

Cross has always gone above and beyond to make sure our home is squared away. We’ve been with them now for roughly four years. We’ve had the same technician the entire time. We do our regular service through them, they never try and oversell. They’re always very professional and timely. If we ever feel like we need a spot treatment or if we see something out of the norm (rarely) all we do is call them up and they’re out ASAP without an extra charge. I would highly recommend them!

Great service, always friendly and do great work! I get our house sprayed quarterly and if I ever see bugs (usually already dead) they will come back out! I’ve even called about random bugs I don’t recognize and they will identify and make recommendations for us.

From beginning to end it was a great experience. Jordan at the office was very friendly and accommodating with scheduling service around my hectic schedule. Randy came out early Saturday morning and got the job done quickly. He was very friendly as well and informed us of the product he was using. This company truly delivers excellent customer service- I will only use and recommend them for all my pest control needs.

They honored the warranty and retreated the exterior of my home for ants at no charge. A good company to do business with and will continue with their service treatments.
Description of Work
Cross provided a retreatment after the ants returned before the 6 month warranty period expired.

We have used Cross Pest Control for years, as did the former owner of our home. This company and the guys that come out are one of the best service providers I've ever dealt with, friendly and honest. They are always on time, will come out on Saturdays, will give you a narrow window of when to expect them (Ex: between 8-9). I've never seen a live roach inside our home. On occasion between our semi-annual spraying we may have ants, but we just call Cross and in no time they are out to address the issue at no charge. They also often ask to do a and quot;walk-aroundand quot; with me to point out simple things that I should consider doing myself just to further ensurer that bugs or rodents don't get into the home (Ex: Trimming branches, caulking, etc.) In addition, we have two small children and the Cross technicians are always very cautious in how/where they spray - especially when they were infants. I am very pleased with their service.

We had a BAD infestation of the little German roaches. We went through several company's until we called Cross, who was a little more than the others but guaranteed their work. Guy came out in August, sprayed and after the requisite 3- week ait we called them back and told them we had more than before. Guy came out AGAIN, sprayed in September. Then, in October, we called them in AGAIN. For the third time the gentleman AND the owner came out, sprayed for 45 minutes. November 13, 2013 the owner himself came out again. While not eradicated, what was the worst infestation I have seen in 40 years of Florida living is now relegated to an occasional roach, like most other people who live in Florida. In all, they made 5 visits and charged for one. Over 3 hours of spraying, 5 man hours of work. How the owner makes it must be customer loyalty!

Unfortunately, due to their rapid rate of reproduction, German Roaches are the hardest roach to eradicate. We are very happy to hear that we were able to take care of the problem and get it under control. We cannot thank you enough for your business.

They are excellent. We have used them for 20 years as we had them from a home that we bought at that time. The price has only increased a tiny amount. They are a local company and we really like using their service. They have always provided quality work. They do the service automatically, which I like.

They do pest control every six months. The price is very good but we have had the service for a very long time.

Provider discussed with me the options for pest control both inside and outside the home. The first service would cost $96 for my size home followed by $76 every 6 months provided they came back out before the 6 months was up. They guarantee their work however if you choose not to have the inside of the home sprayed that guarantee no longer applies. Ultimately I chose to go with another provider because I have pets and chemical sensitivities and do not want them to spray inside the home.

Gave me an estimate for service.

I apologize for the misunderstanding/miscommunication but for most homes we can spray the exterior only and still provide a warranty where the inside is covered. Also, at the end of every 6 months, we give you a call to schedule for your regular roach and ant service, but there are no contractual obligations. We actually allow a 30 day grace period after the due date in order for you to keep the discounted rate, so you do not have to have the service done before the 6 months are up. Once we provide the 6 month Roach and Ant service, we ask you to wait 30 days to get any existing problem under control. After the first 30 days, we will come and retreat for any live roaches and/or ants at no cost to you during that 6 month period. We have multiple options for chemical-sensitive customers and can tailor those options to your needs. We can just spray the exterior for you and under most cases can warranty the inside for you as well. We also have different avenues we can take when dealing with children. We would be more than happy to work with you in the future to provide your pest control needs.Tim G.

I adore them. The first time he had me walk around the property with him and showed my everything about bugs. I have had a few unique problems and he has come right away. He is phenomenal. He comes like clock work. He explained everything and taught me. He really knows his stuff and cares about his customers. He will also go and make rounds if needed. It is a great family company that really cares about what they do. They always come when they say they will.
