Complete Home Inspection, Pest Control - Rodents, Lawn Care Fertilize or Treatment Service,

About us

Dial Pest Control® opened for business in 1978. In 1985, owners Steve Adams and Jerry Smith purchased the company. The real estate boom of the late 80’s propelled the company into termite certifications and treatments to satisfy mortgage requirements. In 1999, the first "green" initiative offered termite baiting systems over chemical-only treatments. In 2011, a new division was created, MoldCure Pro® to treat homes for mold by using green solutions. In 2012, the business grew exponentially by providing victims of Hurricane Sandy environmentally friendly mold care options. Consumer awareness for green treatments further identified the company as a green provider. In January 2015, the business expanded with the acquisition of Lawn Watch Nature’s Pro., expanding green customer base. In June 2015, Dial Pest Control®, Dial Lawn Watch® and Dial Moldcure Pro® became part of newly formed Dial Environmental®. Simply put - We Choose Green First® Visit us at www.dialpestcontrol.com.

Too soon to say if the one time service for $325 will fix theproblem. Can say that Chuck was very professional and and patient in explaining what he was doing inside and outside as he did the work..

In the beginning, I really liked them. They were professional, they looked professional. But then after a few months, it turned out to be like a regular company. They said that if I see anything like bugs, I will call them and they will just schedule somebody to come and take care of it but in true, it wasn't that way. I see something and I call them and then they say that the New Jersey law is that you can't have us more than every two or three weeks or something and since we serviced your house last week, we can't come. They were okay but in the end, I didn't think I was getting what I'm supposed to be getting. Whenever they came in to spray for the spiders, I still see a lot of spiders and I couldn't even get them to come back again because they said they can't and that they will have to do it the next month. They weren't that bad but I remember the last day, I wanted to cancel my service and they were really nasty. They were kind of pushy. They do their work but the work that they do doesn't really help. Every time I call or email them, they respond to that but they don't respond to help. They were professional.
Response from Dial Pest Control
"[Member Name Removed], We are sorry to hear that you were disappointed with our service. While it is true that we are limited to a certain amount of pesticide applications per year, we do try to protect homes with other solutions besides pesticide treatments. We are happy to offer you a free insect inspection and pesticide free treatment if you are open and available for a visit. In addition to gain some further insight of what we could have done to make it right; I reviewed our notes for your account. Our records show that you were disappointed that we removed the termite bait stations from your property in 2014 when you cancelled your contract. I am pleased to share with you that since then we have restructured our cancellation policy and no longer require removal of termite stations for cancellations. Thank you for sharing your experience as continuous improvement is part of our company culture and it is always helpful to learn how we can do a better job. My personal best, Michele"

The technician that provides the service (Paul Ruchser) is excellent ! Such a professional, he is a credit to the organization.

He has been providing this service to our home for many years now. He is the only reason I renew the contract every year.

I value his work ethic and commitment to providing the best care to my lawn.

They are extremely responsive and do a great job.  We hired them several years ago after struggling with ants, carpenter bees and other bugs.  Not cheap, but good value for the level of service.

This company has its act together. All my interactions, with the office and the inspectors, have been efficient and courteous. Our initial inspection with Scott was very informative and convinced us to sign up for their Thermaplus maintenance plan and termite prevention. Mike performed the initial treatment and gave me great info and advice. Really nice people. Price noted is for initial treatment and 30-day followup.

Mike Cancel showed up as scheduled, looked at the nest and identified the bees as yellow jackets. He sprayed and removed the nest and was done in a short time. Mike was very professional and friendly. I would definitely use this service again.

Steve, one of the owners, came to our house immediately after our call and throughout the process was highly professional and responsive.  He took great care of us, explained everything along the way and led us through the things we needed to do to prevent future infestations.  I truly appreciated his company's commitment to green solutions and the extra customer care that he provided.  Dial will definitely be our "go-to" pest removal company in the future.

*9This company was excellent!! Especially the technician, Eric - he was amazing!!!. He arrived on time (in a torrential rain storm) and he and his dog did a complete check of my home for bed bugs. (One of my sons had reported seeing bugs in his room and thought they were bedbugs.) After doing the inspection, the dog did not pick up any indicators of bedbugs. I was thrilled until my son once again reported seeing bugs the next day.  He captured 2 and one looked like a picture of a bedbug on the internet. I immediately called Dial - at 5 the day before the 4th of July - they answered immediately and said they would send Eric to the house the next day. I couldn't believe that anyone would come to my home on a holiday, but Eric arrived on time. He examined the bug we collected and said it might possible be a bed bug - but because it was not in the best shape he couldn't be sure, he then did the most thorough check of a room that could be done, lifting all the furniture and going over every inch of my son's bedroom - neither of us saw anything. Even though it did not appear we had bedbugs - it seemed that there was something that my son had seen and captured - Eric offered to spray the room with non-toxic bug spray. It was over 90 degrees in this bedroom and Eric worked for almost an hour to be sure that everything had been thoroughly inspected and then sprayed - all on a day he should have been enjoying the holiday. This service was above and beyond my expectations and I highly recommend Dial and Eric for their professionalism.

I am very happy with them. They are amazing. They regularly leave a lengthy report on whatever they have done every time they were on the property. They are extremely courteous and they listen to whatever I have to say. They will send out somebody immediately. The will pick up a dead mice or any other insect they might find. It is just amazing. They do these things which I am not expecting them to do but they do them. Whenever they come into my house they cover their shoe. These guys are right on top of everything and they make sure they do that. They treat my house with a lot of respect. They terminate all kinds of insects, bugs, mice. They do the outside of the house and if they need to do the inside of the house they will call me and let me know. I thought it was a fair price and I wouldn’t say it was a bargain. I will absolutely use them again in the future.

I have used Dial Pest Control and I have been using them for years.  They are always on time.  They are thorough and they always respect my property.  They put booties on when they come into the house and that’s important.  The treatment has been very effective.  They gave me a call before they came over.
