Found bugs in mulch out front; took them into Sure Thing Pest Control's office. They confirmed they were termites and scheduled me for a free inspection. Inspection went fine, but in hindsight I don't think the inspector understood company policy and procedures. Inspector quoted me a full perimeter baiting treatment that was over $2000-much more than I needed at this point. He also gave me the option of a partial liquid treatment for the front half of the house (where the muched beds are) for $200. I chose the $200 option and the inspector accepted my Angies List coupon for $50 off and wrote me a quote for $150. However, I was called a couple days later by the company to schedule the treatment visit and was told they could not honor the coupon on only a partial treatment, which they aren't supposted to do anyway. I was disappointed, but proceeded with the appointment. On the day of the treatment I pulled back the mulch from the foundation, as the inspector recommended, and also cleared back some of the dirt because I was woried about my plants/landscaping in the area that was to be treated. The ispector had described the procedure as digging a 4" x 4' trench with some sort of machine along my foundation, applying the chemical and then filling the dirt back in. The actual procedure was very different--it involved using a long tube to inject the chemical into the soil every 8" or so and was a lot less intrusive than I was led to believe. In fact, I want to highlight the excellent service Ken O'Brien provided. He was prompt-early actually-and extremely knowledgable. He answered a ton of my questions about various ants and pests, did a thorough job treating the area in question (and a little more), did a walk-around with me to look for other trouble spots, and applied a small amount of some bait/poison to show how it works against the ants I was seeing. Ken did such a wonderful job that went above and beyond my expectations, I gave this vendor high ratings in spite of my experience with the inspector.

It is good to hear that Ken did a good job for you. You may have missed understood the inspector who was out. He has been doing termite and pest control for over twenty years and has been with us for a long time. The original quote for either the baiting program or the barrier treatment to do the entire house was $1276.00. Unfortunately we can only accept the coupon if a complete job is done. Any way in the end we got you taken care of. Thanks for your business. I will pass your comments along. Glenn!

I actually determined what the bugs were that were biting me, but I had enlisted them to do that for me. Once we figured it out, it was easy to get rid of.
Description of Work: I thought we might have some problems with bed bugs, so they came out to check it out. They finally figured out fleas had come into our home.

Response from Sure Thing Pest Control
I am sorry you feel as if we did not take care of you. Sometimes when you are looking for a specific such as bed bugs you can miss the actual issue and there can be several insects that can cause bites. If you don't find any insects at the time of the inspection, it is hard to determine what is causing the problem. It looks like we did solve the problem once it was determined what insect you had. I will past your comments along. Hope you will reconsider using us if you have another insect problem.

They took a great deal of time stabilizing the structure and looking for the termites. They took a great deal of time looking the whole building over. They came out another day and installed the termite bait traps.

Called on Friday and SureThing were at my rental property on the Saturday. Sprayed the interior and deck area for bugs. Quoted a monthly fee of $55 for regular treatments which seemed high.

They did a really great job for us. They were very thorough. They were fairly knowledgeable. What I was thinking to have done, they said they would do but it wasn’t exactly what they would recommend. They followed up back again to make sure it was working what they had recommended. They were an expert. They were right. I felt like they were giving a hard sell or something but they weren’t. It didn’t come across that way either. Their price was comparable to the price that I got from others. The quality of work was excellent. I would use them in the future.

It's been good. They've been thorough. They did a good job. They are very prompt. They seem to take all of our concerns into account. We haven't had any problems with the same pests after they've been here. We've had some bee issues and they've taken care of that for us. I would continue to use them in the future.

They’re very good. We can’t remember exactly how much we spent on their services. It was between a $50 and a $100 range, but I would say it was $50. They came right away and they were thorough. They were very good. They knew we were concerned about pesticides in our home with kids and dogs. They were great and very personable. We’d compared with other people and they seemed inexpensive. We will use them again in the future if we need to.

Jason's performance ensured that Sure Thing will have a repeat customer. He did not overly try to sell any other services, though I was interested, and I felt no pressure at any point. He explained what he doing and really went into great detail. He was professional and his fifteen years of experience was evident in our encounter. I have worked with the public for quite a while myself and know when someone acts like they know what they are talking about versus someone who genuinely knows what they are talking about. Jason genuinely knows what's going on. I am confident that my home's issues will be taken care of and that Sure Thing will get a call in the future for other potential issues (termites, etc.), because of my great, initial experience with the company.
Description of Work: Had some rodent issues and Jason did a great job of doing what I can't. He was very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions (I had quite a few) thoroughly. He set traps and did a great job of looking for potential entry points. He was cognizant of my having children and offered assurances to the safety of his methods. He went above and beyond and, truly, he exceeded my expectations.

They did a great job overall! Jerry (owner) was personable and didn’t try to oversell me. I felt the rate to get rid of the bees was very reasonable. He even threw in a termite inspection, which came out clean! I can’t say enough good things about the experience!
Description of Work: On Monday, I heard a very large noise that I eventually discovered was coming from the side of my house. There was a very large swarm of bees, at least 6’ tall. I was given some advice by phone and chose to wait it out. Later in the week, I contacted Sure Thing to come out when I noticed the bees still swarming.

They were terrific. We were concerned about pest control whether we needed continuous monitoring and they did not try to up sell or anything. They gave us good advice and told us that we could watch it ourselves and showed us how. They were really good. If we need any services in the future we would go right back to them.

We use them quarterly for outside our home. There is nothing we dislike. They call before they come. We have not had any issues with them. Their price is comfortable to others. They are dependable. I spend $100 per occasion, so we have him four times a year. We have used them four or five years and we have not had any problems. We have been happy with their service. They are quick to respond and did anything outside of the regular quarterly treatment.

They really know what they are doing and are very conscientious of our house and things. They were really good. They explained everything, how the bugs multiple, where they live. The guy that came here he was very very knowledgeable. I thought the price was reasonable. I had one other friend to go by he had used somebody else and it cost him a lot more. For us it took longer I have a six room house but he only had to do three rooms out of the six but he spent a good two hours at least. He really checked everything. He was really good and was really thorough.

I was very concerned that I had termites, so I called Sure Thing, since my sister recommend them. The technician came out and explained to me that I didn’t have termites, but some kind of ants. He sprayed for these ants, and their cost was really reasonable. I would highly recommend them, as does my sister! I’ve also referred them to quite a few people in the neighborhood.
