Tl;Dr… this company is shady, they will lie, treat you with disrespect, and WILL NOT finish the job. I recommend you to not trust anything Tom or anyone here says to you and find someone else. ——— Target Pest Control is NOT to be trusted. I am hopeful that my experience is an anomaly, but the way this company treats their customers is not ideal. To even get ahold of anyone here, you need to call an “answering center” that only takes your info and says the “office will call you back”. The office ignored most of my calls after I became a customer. After waiting a couple days (although I made it clear the item was urgent), the exterminator comes out and does a shady job. They were late, never called when on the way (as promised), and they did not exterminate properly and thoroughly. The exterminator seemed to be a novice that was unable to answer any questions. Following this, they said the issue will be mostly resolved in a few days. A week later, the issue was not resolved… it was back to square one. After multiple non returned calls, and repeated false information, I am finally told they’ll come back (8 days later). During that trip, the exterminator failed to call day of and de-prioritized the work. He ended up being hours late, then 45 mins to the last promised time… and then NEVER showed up. This is after multiple false statements made via phone. I would not recommend this company. They’ve caused costly construction delays, stress, and treated myself and my partners with complete disrespect.
Response from Target Pest Control

"Your stress is self-inflicted. You expected a vacant, heavily flea-ridden house to be free of fleas in 3 days after treatment. We were there on Friday, you called on that following Monday, upset that you still had fleas in the house. There is not an exterminator in the world that would promise a 3-day turnaround as the products take much, much longer to work, especially with a heavy infestation. They don't work faster just because you WANT them to. You were unhappy because we couldn't magically make your fleas disappear in 3 days. Respect is earned. Your tantrums, treatment of our staff, and weaponizing of the review platforms gained you none. No one lied to you. We extended credit to you, in good faith, even though we have never done business with you, we scheduled a complimentary return visit well before we were supposed to return just to placate you, and your response was to stand us up. Your expectations are unrealistic. Good luck finding a pest control company that will fill your needs."

Bill came out on a Sunday. He was very professional and explained the background to my problem and what he planned to do very thoroughly. The treatment he performed worked perfectly.

I wasn't at home when they did the work, but everything seems to have turned out well.  They left me a bill as promised, and I haven't had any bee problems since their treatment.

We started with Target several years ago after yellow jackets had eaten thru the drywall and invaded our house on a Saturday. Target came out the same day and took care of the problem. We have used them ever since. They do a treatment in the Spring and will come out as often as needed the rest of the year to re-treat problem areas for no additional cost. For us, they usually do not need to come back more than once (usually late summer) and there is no hassle at all. Always professional and courteous.

The guy who came out was fantastic. We had a bee problem and he came out and explained exactly what he was doing. He was very thorough and he told us exactly what he was putting on and how long it would take to control the bees and it worked out exactly as he said that it would. He was very professional and very effective. He came out right away. In fact, I told my neighbor that this spring we are going to have the guy come out to do both of our houses. His price was good and he was right on time. I was there when he did the service and he did not need to wear the big bee things and the suits but he had the equipment to get up into the eaves of the house and he took some effervescent that he had which I have never seen before but it all worked.

Target returned my call promptly to provide an estimate and set up an appointment for three days from the call. They mentioned that they had 24-hour emergency service, but that it would be more expensive, and they told me what to watch out for to determine whether I needed to have them come out right away. They came when they said they would, did the work promptly and checked the exterior of the house for other signs of infestation. The bill was what they said it would be. They said the activity should did out within a couple of weeks, and if it didn't, to call them back to come out and re-treat.



After my initial call, my next door neighbor was stung badly by hornets in a nest in her front bushes. I suggested that she contact Target and see if they could take care of her problem while they were at my house. She did so, and they fixed her problem while they were out.

Brett Lalonde showed up at the house at about 10am as scheduled. He called just before arrival to let me know he was on the way. When he got here, I showed him where the nest was. He suggested the kids and I stay in the house while he sprayed although he didn't think they would be near us. It was great that he was concerned about our safety. He sprayed the side of the house multiple times. He said if there was still activity in 6 days, he would return and respray. He said it was guaranteed until January (I think). He said it was the peak season of activity and also suggested the plants so close to the house attract bees toward the house which validated why we wanted to move the plants away from the house. We would definitely call again.

Bill came out and explained the whole procedure and three step process to us. They were very professional. When Steve came out he explained each step in detail of what he was doing. They said that if there were anymore issues a week to two weeks later to call them back. We called them back and they came out immediately and took care of the issue. They are very good and we would suggest them to anyone else.

Their service may be fine but it is just putting a band aid on the problem. I have lived in the same area for 20 years. The trap that we have was built on an apple orchard. It is very hard to get rid of the bees in this area. I could not recommend them because the problem has not been cured.
Response from Target Pest Control

"I apologize, but I am completely confused by this review. The customer states that they would not recommend our company, but they would hire us again. I have no idea what "the trap they put out is an apple orchard" means. We do not trap bees. If someone lives near an orchard they may have a higher population of bees and wasps around them.. We exterminate existing populations on the structure and repel them for the rest of the year. We come out at no charge for the remainder of the year for any recalls or follow-ups.. Our bee and wasp treatment is seasonal, meaning our application will control flying and stinging insects throughout the year, but breaks down and becomes ineffective over the winter, thus requiring a new application annually in the spring for another year of control. We do not, nor have we ever promised to kill bees and wasps in the surrounding neighborhood of the customer. There is not a product available in our industry that can be applied once and will forever continuously repel and kill bees year after year. Most of our customers get this, and understand why they need a new application every spring. If a homeowner is looking for someone to come out and spray for bees once and never have them again to "cure" their bee and wasp issues, they undoubtedly will be disappointed that service does not exist ....anywhere."

Joe finally solved my problem that had been going on for a month. Service was good for a year. I had to call late spring for bees that had returned and they came right out to spray for free. They found the location where the bees were getting my house. Solved my bee issue.

They were super easy to schedule with. They were cheaper than everyone else. They did a great job. I talked to other companies that wanted to come out for a consultation but Target didn't have to come out and do a consultation, they just came out and did the job and I liked that.
