I contacted the company via email and received a prompt reply to all of my questions. It was nice to receive a quick response! The work was completed on the date scheduled and the service technician was friendly and professional.

Excellent job. Very professional. Very punctual. Cost was very reasonable. Tech sprayed second floor nest (which was inside the roof structure) from ground with powerful sprayer. Indicated that wasps would be eradicated within 2 days - and they were. Had one follow-up when 1 lone wasp was seen / the company juggled their schedule to make a tech available the day I called to puff-spray from the inside - and that took care of the problem. Excellent follow-through. Great job and will definitely use them again.

Prompt service. Called us late in the day to let us know they had identified the type of insect and recommended ways to avoid in the future. Great people.

In both instances, the services were scheduled quickly, the employee sent to the home was friendly, professional, assessed the situation and efficiently handled each problem. I was very happy with the service and impressed that the work had a 60 day warranty. Thanks, everyone.

I recommend General Pest Control very highly. Their technician Brett responded quickly when I called about finding carpenter ants. He explained the treatment to me, and clearly was an expert. Brett even came back for a follow-up visit to verify the ants were gone. I plan on looking into a seasonal contract with them - great service, and I recommend General Pest Control highly.

The technician, Gene, was a great guy. He was very personable, knowlegeable, and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to have him come back to my home to perform future pesticide services, should the need arise. He'd be the first person I'd call.

I had ants here for the first time this spring. They put out an ant trap that didn't bite. They sent someone back out here and he said he's an ant expert and he will get rid of them and he did. He did a good job. The only thing I didn't like was one time I cleaned my windows and they came that Monday and sprayed around windows and messed them all up again. Besides that one time, they do good we have a contract with them.

It went well, he arrived the same day I called and also checked the house and blocked any entry points where pests could possibly get into the attic.

Good, but the first appointment was a Saturday no show. I called to complain and was excellent after that point.

Great! Once again I am more than impressed with this company. This is the second time I used them (first ended up being a squirrel, which they don't actually deal with, but see my other review for how that visit went). This time I had rodents in the home. The inspector looked around, confirmed that it was rats and not mice, set some traps, and left. Within an hour after he left, I heard a trap snap; we had caught a rat. He came back the next day to remove the dead animal, and while he was there I happened to mention that I had an ant problem after he saw an ant crawling on me in the house. I was trying to deal with that on my own for a few weeks, using ant poison from Target as I had in the past, but had not yet been successful in eliminating them. He promptly went to his truck and came back with a different type of trap with professional ant poison for me to place in the bathroom, and also treated the outside of the house, at no charge. A few days later, my ant problem was gone. Meanwhile, there has been no further rat activity, so that problem is eliminated as well. In short, not only are they effective, the customer service is outstanding! You can't go wrong hiring them.
