We have used Thomas' Pest to remove wasp nest and to trap moles. Then hired to perform quarterly inspection. All service men have been promoted and reliable. Recently Zachery has been doing the service. He us so thorough, inside and outside. We are now confident any mouse problem has been taken care of. Definitely hire Thomas' to take care of any pesky pests.

The Thomas' Pest Control employee arrived on time, assessed the situation, and completed the work quickly. He sprayed a powder (environmentally friendly) into the two holes leading to the yellow-jacket nest. He then went back to assess how the yellow-jackets were responding and noted that they were getting covered with the power and were starting to die. He let me know that it could take up to 7-10 days to take full effect but that I should check in a few days and let them know if I was still seeing a lot of activity. He spent some time with me answering my questions to and was very knowledgeable. With the Angie's List discount, it came to $179 and had a 30 day guarantee.

While having work done by a contractor Carpenter ants were found and work was stopped until they could be controlled. I called Thomas Pest Control on Monday evening. They were there to give me an estimate Tuesday morning and did the job at 2pm that same day. They spotted a bees nest and took care of that too. Bees returned and they came back and got rid of them on Thursday. Great, GREAT service.

Family Pest Services is terrific! I wholeheartedly recommend them! The guys who have serviced both my brother’s rental property and my mom’s house have been incredibly professional, reliable, courteous and thorough! I’m fact, it was due to the sharp eyes of one member of Jack’s team (Matt), that we learned that there are *also* carpenter *bees*(! Who knew! Never heard of such a thing!) on the front porch of my brother’s property. We are so grateful to have discovered this before more damage was sustained!
Description of Work
Services to identify if carpenter ants present. Went with Thomas’ Pest service after meeting three (total) options for exterminators. The owner, Jack, has been in the business for 30 years. He was the most thorough of all three who provided quotes, the most reasonable, and is now servicing one of my brother’s rental properties (a two-family house) as well, unfortunately, as the two family my mom owns (although for my mom’s house, only the front pitch had any issues).

We could not be more happy with the service we received from Thomas Pest Service - Jim in the office was wonderful and extremely quick to respond and Brian handled the issue quickly and efficiently and sealed up the vent to prevent any future issues. Highly recommend this business - Thanks guys!

Sales rep came and gave estimate of quarterly treatment to keep wasps from forming nests and keep at bay, made appointment before leaving on my approval. Technician arrived on time was very personable and thorough. Sprayed around windows and eves on 2nd story so stinging insects didnt just move up from foundation and 1st floor treatment. Im counting on future treatments being as good and thorough. Cost was $149 quarterly recurring maintenance charge or $596/yr

Having recently bought a neglected and unloved house, among the many projects we had included termite eviction. I was pretty freaked out about the whole thing so I got a couple of quotes. Bob from Thomas was my tech and was he thorough! He looked in closets, in the garage, got his hands in the soil, all the time staying focused and on topic. Not once did he use fear tactics or try to upsell me. Bob was professional, extremely knowledgeable and I felt very secure in his hands. Just to go through the process, we had the other company come out and what a difference! The sales guy talked our ears off for almost an hour - maybe 5 minutes of that was actual shop talk. He did a cursory run around the property and then started talking about not only a bait system, but trenching and tearing walls out. He said "all of our guys are construction certified". The minute we heard that a huge red flag went up for us. Now, I know termites are not to be taken lightly, but really. I spoke to my neighbors (it seems these little buggers are common in this forested area), and *none* of them had anything more than the in-ground systems and that was working for them all. Thomas Pest Services got our business - not only because they were professional, punctual and fair (and didn't talk our ears off about random nonsense), but treated us respectfully by not trying to clean us out. I will definitely consider them for future needs and would *highly* recommend them to anyone. Thank you Bob and everyone at Thomas Pest Services!

This company is the best! Service is professional and very complete. They send email report of findings, what they did, suggestions for home improvements after every visit. They come back between visits if needed (no additional charge). Very good about scheduling and come when they are supposed to. I had previously used Orkin and Northeast, both were unsatisfactory. Orkin was totally unreliable about when they showed up, last straw was when service guy treated outside of my neighbor's house when I wasn't home. Northeast very unresponsive and unclear about what they were doing - I think they only want commercial clients.

There was a mixup with initial call-back, but eventually the rep came and explained about setting the traps. On the last day they captured an opossum. He also covered back the hole and smoothed the ground around the affected area.

Mike from Thomas Pest Control was very professional. He applied a gel around the perimeter of our house and dusted the window trim. I haven't seen many bugs since. The Angies list coupon brought their price down lower than the other pest company that I called. Perhaps of these things were real aliens I might have gotten a quicker appointment, three days out work fine, it's probably the norm.
Description of Work
The stink bug invasion of 2017 was upon us. These little aliens kept finding their way past my window air conditioner units. I usually handle pest issues by myself, I brushed them off my windows and vacuumed them up a few times, but they kept coming back.

Excellent. No more carpenter ants seen.
Description of Work
We had carpenter ants. Thomas Pest Services did a prompt, professional, excellent job. My only reservation was that the price seemed a little high considering that the whole job took less than an hour. But I have not priced other vendors and so may not know what the market is like.

They are professional and install some equipment underground in the yard and spray the exterior of the house, eliminate rodent in different area. They come over every month and in the fall every 2 month to keep up. The notice before service and report after the service were emailed to me. Very professional and efficient.
