Interstate was fabulous. They arrived within the two-hour time window we'd established. Set up the rat traps and were on their way. Within two hours, some unfortunately little rat had met his end. They came back the next day and reset the traps -- as there were a few. We have set up an ongoing monthly program at this time to ensure they don't come back. I love the way I can find a trustworthy, professional provider on Angie's List! Been doing it for years. Thank you.

They come out every month. They come and then send me an e-mail . I think I pay about $100 a year. I think they might come out every other month. I'd have to look, it's been a while since I've checked. They'll come out when we call, and we haven't had to call them out for a while. So it's been a year plus since we've had to call them out specifically for an issue. Which means their monthly/bi-monthly services are doing what they are supposed to. I think it's monthly and it must be more like $20 a visit, so that would make it $240 a year, or something like that. I think their price is reasonable. They come out when they say they are coming. They usually let me know when they are coming. We found them through Angie's List. They do interior sometimes, and they spray outside around the house itself, it's not widespread, just around the house. We talked about the chemicals they use, when we first signed up. That was part of the reason we picked them. They had the ones (chemicals) we thought might be ok.

I was unhappy with a prior pest service. Interstate came out, did an inspection, gave me a lot more information about what had been done by the prior service. They told me to wait another week or so for the prior tx to take effect. They didn't charge me. However, they were so professional and knowledgeable, I would go to them first next time.

Great, it ended up I didn't have a pest problem after all but Interstate set my mind to rest about the matter so I'm grateful for their work investigating it.

I thought I had a pest problem so I had Brandon at Interstate Pest Management come check on it. He was extremely cordial, efficient, professional, courteous, etc. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this family-owned business. I will call them again, if I needed help.

They are fine. They didn't explain the pests, they said it takes care of the ants. They did a thorough job spraying, I saw some more ants and called them back, they said they were not the carpenter ants and that they did not come out for those types of ants. They pressed me to do a monthly, which I didn't want to do. I feel like I wasted money. I would probably check out other people before using them again.

went fine. They told us what we did need and what we could have but is not necessary to what we had done. They were professional and prompt. They did give a small senior citizen discount. When we noticed that the dehumidifier was not properly working they came the next business day to fix it.

Very well. Have since used this company to provide quarterly service to prevent further major infestations. I like having usually the same guy (Brandon) do the actual work, and I like their policy of doing any follow-up visits free of charge if the bugs reappear between quarterly treatments. Also like the office staff who are pleasant and competent. It's easy to get Brando or coworker out here on short notice as needed for additional treatments, and Brandon is informative / doesn't mind answering my questions about the chemicals he is using, etc..

Control of a recurrent problem with small black ants inside and outside our suburban home which started a few yrs ago when our summers started getting much warmer. These ants now reappear whenever the weather gets warm or even mild.

[Member Name Removed], So sorry this got missed, I do remember talking to Shelly about this. Good thing no treatment was needed, due to the fact that they were Dampwood Termites. I left a message on your phone. Thanks BradALAN R.

Generally works well. I hired this company to do perimeter insecticide spraying and prophylactic rodent control around my single family home in leafy area about 4 - 5 yrs ago. They do this every 3 mos generally. Pros: reliable, good office staff communication, fair price, good access to a knowledgeable service manager with whom I have had good conversations regarding my leaning toward minimizing the amount of insecticide used, and avoiding use of products that have potential side effect of killing bees. Also, I like their policy of a free visit if a problematic infestation occurs between scheduled visits. Also like that the techs remove spider webs, and small wasp nests during visits. Cons: Occasional turnover in their technicians which of course is a fact of life. Did have 1 "fill-in" tech who was not adequately experienced and oversprayed, but he was never sent to my home again after I discussed the issue with their office.

Well. Have used this company for about 6 years and generally been happy with their work. As expected, over these 6 years, the technicians have turned over a bit. With the exception of 1 fellow, the techs have been very helpful, polite, informative and have done their work well. The 1 disappointing tech was a fill in guy who did not appear to be qualified to do this work based on my observations. I complained about him, and he has not returned. 1 feature I really like about how this company operates is that if any insect problems arise between the paid quarterly visits, I do not have to pay anything extra for a tech to do an extra visit in a timely way to take care of the problem. Finally, I prefer to not have heavy applications of the insecticides, and to use them as sparingly as possible. The company has worked well with me on this. Have been able to discuss the above, including the choice of agents used with their service manager who is very knowledgeable and helpful. Finally, I have found their office people to be very easy, responsive, and friendly to work with.

Interstate was very responsive to address our situation. Duane came out to the house and after a walk through of the entire outside perimeter, he determined these were moisture ants and recommended a course of action to eliminate the problem. Rather than just keep treating the problem, he helped us understand the cause. He was professional, friendly and obviously very knowledgeable. Would not hesitate to call them again.

Interstate Pest Management is an impressive company! They were thorough from start to finish and paid close attention to detail. They fully answered the questions that I had and explained in detail what the job would entail. They laid drop cloths on the stairs and made certain to close doors behind them. They paid attention to details, clean up and remove all of the old materials. They are an exceptional company and I would recommend their services to anyone needing pest control or removal.
Description of Work
Initial visit to assess situation and develop timeline for job. Phase one was to locate and block entrances to crawl space, set traps in crawl space and around perimeter of house. Phase 2 was to remove all insulation and original black plastic from crawl space. Crawl space was fumigated and new insulation and black plastic was installed. Three additional visits to inspect and remove traps and added additional cement to two holes.
