Response from Scout Pest Elimination
We are sorry to hear that the customer was not fully satisfied with our service. We offer a 30 day warranty will all treatments and will come back free of charge to retreat if the customer is still having issues. This service was performed over two years ago and it wasn’t until we read this review that we became aware that the customer was not satisfied with their service. We are truly sorry that we did not meet their expectations. We strive to provide the best service possible and strongly encourage customers to reach out to us if they feel that their needs have not been met.

Description of Work: Sprayed for ants and it did the trick for a couple of weeks, but then the ants were back. It seemed like a lot of money to spend for a couple of weeks of relief. We ended up buying ant traps for a lot less at our local hardware store, placed them strategically where the ants were getting in and we've had no trouble since. I have nothing against Scout, i just learned that spraying once for ants at $95 a go wasn't a solution for us.

Response from Scout Pest Elimination
I am sorry that the ants returned. The service does come with a warranty that I'm sure was explained to you. There is no charge for us to return and redo the service as many times as needed during the warranty. If it rained any time within a couple days the exterior bait would not be poisonous to ants. We would have gladly came back. Please call us again we would love to work with you and I would be willing to give you a discount. Thank you.

Since it was a rainy day, Brian could only treat the inside of the house. However, he came back the next Monday and completed trating the outside just as he said he would. We are pleased.

When I called I requested the absolute first available date and the provider was very accommodating. They couldn't spray the original date we discussed because of the rain but they called me immediately that morning and informed me. We were able to reschedule for the next day. They were prompt and professional. So far so good on the limited number of mosquitos. We would love for all of our neighbors to spray to help from seeing any bugs :)
Description of Work: The provider sprayed the first of three treatments for our shrubs, grass and trees to treat for mosquitos.

He was very helpful and eager to fix the problem. We appreciated his professionalism and concern.
Description of Work: I purchased a Big Deal for $59 for a 1-Time Pest Control Service with a 30-Day Guarantee There was still some ant infestation later so.he returned today as we still had a slight problem. The inside of the house was re-sprayed and bait was laid outside for the ants. Due to rainy weather, he said he might have to return later for outside prevention.

Bryan showed up on time and was very courteous and professional. He understood that I had two collie puppies and did not want the spray indoors so he spent extra time spraying everything outside and knocked down all the wasps nests. He also sprayed the basement and garage. It has been almost a week and I've noticed a significant reduction in insects. He suggested coming back in the late summer or fall if I noticed more insects but did not pressure me to do additional services and did not try to sell me a contract. I thought he was great and will definitely call them again whenever I need service. I highly recommend this company.

He is always on time when he is doing inside treatments. He always comes when he says he will. We have no problems with insects. Several years ago, he treated us for termites and was much cheaper than other bids and we have had no other problems. We highly recommend this service provider.

This is a family run business and has more of the personal touch than a lot of the big chains. They are very knowledgeable and very willing to explain what they do and why they are doing it. From the first phone call to them through the end of the service call, they were professional, knowledgeable and very friendly. They also seem to like what they do (which is eliminating pests) unlike a lot of other companies that send a technician that doesn't seem to care and wishes they were anywhere else at that moment. They were more thorough and went into more areas of my home than any other company I have hired to do this before. In addition, they were more reasonably priced than many other companies I contacted. A lot of other companies wanted to charge me a large initial fee upfront for the first service in ADDITION to the service call fee. This company only charged me the service call fee, nothing more. I have now used them 3 times for service, in June, September and just a couple of days ago. I used to have a terrible spider problem but not anymore. I believe you get a lot of bang for your buck, so to speak, with this company.
Description of Work: Bill Odom came out to my house and did a quarterly service. He sprayed the inside and the outside of my house. He also went into the attic and dusted there. He spent the time necessary to explain what he was doing and why in the different areas of my house that he serviced.
