SPRK is not only honest but their techs are highly experienced and knowledgeable. They took care of a hornet nest for us and they did it right so it never came back. After that experience we signed up for the quarterly pest service with them and never had any more issues. I am always someone who asks a lot of questions and I've genuinely learned a lot about insects and keeping my house pest-free from talking to them. In an industry like pest control you have to know your stuff, and they do.

TLDR: Orkin lies. Go local instead. They tried scamming me for more money, and refused to refund me…read moreafter they failed to do what they promised. Long Review: Stay away from this company. I've worked in real estate and called for estimates from exterminators in several states, Orkin has brought me the worst experience I've ever had. I inquired about a mouse issue, the person on the phone was pressuring me to buy quickly as possible. He offered a discount that would go away if I hung up. This is a slimy sales tactic and I should've stopped there. Because the service they gave me was a blatant lie from what I was promised on the telephone. After being pressured to not inquire with other companies, I decided to let Orkin inspect my home for pests. I was promised mouse traps and the enclosure of holes for the rats so they wouldn't re-enter. Visiting my house, they REFUSED TO CLOSE THE HOLES, and told me that it was worst for the infestation if they closed them. They said specifically that closing the holes would "rile and trap the rats indoors." Later I contacted another company, and they told me there would be nothing wrong with closing these gaps. And they even looked confused to suggest that closing holes could make a rat infestation worse. So Orkin not only failed to provide the service that was promised, THEY ALSO LIED by saying that closing the gaps was worst for my house. When Orkin inspected my house, they explained to me that rats were entering through the roof and living in my attic, and I needed to fumigate my home to get rid of them. I am now convinced that Orkin only said this to charge me more for a service that was completely unnecessary. Orkin said the cost would be upward to SEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS. I'm extremely happy I didn't pay for this. The other company explained to me that fumigating my home was unnecessary and it was unlikely rats were entering through the roof. Instead, this second company completed the service that Orkin refused to provide, and they filled the gaps, window cracks, and holes with wire meshes. This was something that was promised by Orkin that they didn't provide. And unlike Orkin, the new company I called had no issue of me contacting other exterminators in the area, and were much more courteous than the Orkin inspector who insisted that there was nothing they could do to stop the rats. Not only was this second company not charging me for any of the extra work, but they behaved very cordially while encouraging me to inquire others in case their work wasn't enough. Orkin made me feel like their services were the only option, with a sense of emergency to pay them for extra services as quickly as possible. This is a very dishonest sales tactic, and made me unnecessarily stress in the process of buying a new home for my family. When I decided to call back for a refund, which I felt was justified since Orkin didn't close the gaps like they promised me they would, they refused. Not only did they refuse, but they had the audacity to say that closing gaps wasn't in their services for the initial inspection. Even though that was the primary service promised for their first visit. It was the whole reason I called them out, and they wouldn't even give me a refund for their failure to provide what they promised. I'm very upset with Orkin, and am going to let everyone I know not to use their services because of the blatant disrespect I've felt throughout this entire process. I don't want to cause any issues by naming the better company that I've picked instead. I will just say that I recommend for everyone to look for a local exterminator company instead of Orkin.
