Description of Work: We had a retreatment to prevent termites. The cost was much less than anyone else and no more than it cost us seven years ago. He did the job well and explained the process as well. Very pleased and will use Preferred Termite again in seven years!

Description of Work: This company is very professional and courteous. We have had them do a lot of work for us through the years at quite a few different properties. Their performance is stellar and their prices are competitive. We are hoping they are able to bring their costs for treatment of bed bugs down.

Description of Work: After moving into a duplex I discovered that I was being bitten nightly and contacted Preferred Pest Control for a free inspection. The inspection revealed that bedbugs were present and there was a small infestation beginning on my mattress. For a very reasonable one-time fee they treated my mattress & boxsprings, as well as my recliner and computer chair, sprayed my floors & baseboards throughout and put a special powder behind my switchplates and wall outlets. They left behind a few small cardboard bedbug traps behind my bed so I could monitor the situation and, since their treatment, my place has been bedbug free. I also purchased, separately at Walmart, bedbug-proof encasements for my mattress, boxsprings, and pillows and elevated my bed frame with risers that I added some diatemaceous earth to at the tops where the bed frame legs rest. I've been lucky that I did not need follow-up treatments. I would highly recommend them for all pest control needs. Great folks to deal with !

Response from Preferred Termite and Pest Control
We are sorry to hear that you are unhappy with the service we provided this past summer. After reviewing your file this morning it is surprising to hear that you are unsatisfied since we eliminated the infestation as promised. We followed up with your wife this morning to find out what prompted the poor review, but she assured us that the infestation was eliminated over 2 months ago and continues to remain that way. We hold ourselves and our technicians to high standards because your satisfaction is important to us. We hope you will give us the opportunity to speak with you directly to resolve this issue. Please call us at (816) 279-2000.
