Huge Shout out to our Technician Tim!!! Tim has been coming to take care of our house regularly, and he is always doing a great job! Makes sure to remind us to keep our dog inside while he is spraying and leaves me a note when it's safe for her to go out again. [[HIGHLIGHT]]He is super punctual and communicates very well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]He is always ready to answer all my questions, and explains everything.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Last year, we had a big issue with grasshoppers and Tim went way above and beyond to ensure they were gone for good! Thank you Tim! read more

I live in National city and my original call to Agpest was for my flea problem. We don't have any pets and no carpet. Just fleas left from previous owners that lived in the house I just moved to. A guy named Miguel came out and sprayed the yard and around the house. We were good for about a two weeks and I called about more fleas. Miguel wasn't available so another guy came out and sprayed and put bombs in the house. I was charged extra, but credited back for it. They assured me the flea cycle would break after a month and I wouldn't have anymore. [[HIGHLIGHT]]During the 8 months of using them, he was late and no call no show on some appointments.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]When I called their dispatch, they said they'll reach out to the tech and would call me back. They never did, I had to make the call back and dispatch said the tech couldn't make it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I lost a whole day of running errands because of that.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] By the 8th month, I was still having flea issues and when the tech came to spray I asked if he's going to spray for fleas and the tech said no. I asked why not, I've been under the assumption that he's been spraying for fleas every month. He said its an additional cost service to spray for fleas. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I said to the tech, okay that's why I'm paying you. He responded by saying I need to call and add that service for additional cost and also that's my fault because I don't have a secure yard to keep stray animals out from bring fleas.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I canceled service after that. read more

We had used this company in the past and was quite satisfied with their work. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We called several times and left our name and number, but Tim would never return our call.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] After 3 calls, I gave up. I don't recall any issues with their last job at our house. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It would have been far more professional if Tom had returned our calls and let us know what was going on[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were very disappointed in how this was handled[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I recently had to call the Agpest office (and I was not a happy camper) to discuss a confusion with my bill. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I spoke first with Perla, who was so pleasant and even though she couldn't help me , immediately put me in touch with accounting[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Kellie was professional, kind ,and really took the time to listen[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . She immediately remedied the issue with the bill and her willingness and eagerness to find a solution , went beyond what I expected. What started out as a negative (mainly on my part ) ended in a satisfied customer ! AGPest is the best - thanks! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]We have been using Agpest for well over a decade-they are the BEST!!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Several times a year I call Tom to schedule and James comes out and does all of our services-treating our trees to keep them super healthy-he is AWESOME!!! Family owned business that definitely puts their customers first!!! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Very easy company to work with.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Tom came out and quoted a very reasonable price to fertilize and insecticide 20 palm trees, while spending another 30+ minutes in friendly conversation. The technician James was awesome with loads of knowledge. He took the time to explain things with great conversation as he allowed me to follow him around. He even threw in a few extra trees that were not on the contract. Who does that?! Great service and hope to see James for my next Canary tree treatment. read more

I was staying with my friend while visiting in San Diego for work. She has quite a busy schedule and works for the school district until 315pm. She had coordinated with the company to ensure they would arrive as close to 330pm as possible so that there would be someone in the house at that time. Long story short, the service technician that was sent was very unprofessional. His name was Tim. His shirt was untucked and when he arrived that he was off at four and that he has a life and that he was not going to work over time. My friend asked if he would like to continue with the service and if he was going to be able to spray inside the house and outside. He said no. My friend opted not to use this company thanks to a guy named Tim Agpest. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great company friendly staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will take care of all your pest issues. They cover all of San Diego county

UNBELIEVABLE!! They work for my parents doing multiple jobs at their estate, one of which is spraying for bugs... I would have not written this review if someone had called me today after I complained but nothing, to me or my parents... sooo here ya go. I have a 6 month old baby who I had outside with me, I was about to get in my car and left her in her stroller in the shade while I adjusted the car seat. Well extremely smart (sarcasm) pest guy sprayed the stuff all along the wall not even a foot away from the stroller!!!! So my baby literally just breathed in all the chemicals used to kill bugs!!!! You would think common sense is to avoid the area where a BABY is, but he didn't even need to use brain cells because my mom specifically asked him to avoid the area, or do it last after I had left. The house is definitely big enough to start work on another area! read more

ZERO stars. The workers are vile and disgusting! On the signed paperwork I made a note that I would leave my keys under my mat for the workers to enter my apt while I'm at work. Apparently the message did not get relayed and they broke in through my front window, bending my screen and leaving my cat tree, which is against the window, askew in the living room. If they had an ounce of common sense, they would check under the mat before breaking into my home. They URINATED in my toilet, did NOT flush, left the toilet seat up and peed all around the rim of the toilet. They also did not put the screens back properly on multiple apartments in the complex. DO NOT use this company!!! I am utterly disgusted. read more

AGPest has been treating my Cannery Island Palm for about a year now. My palm has/had been hit by that Weevil. My palm was failing quickly, but was told that AGPest had a treatment. They came out and verified that my palm was infested with that Weevil. They confirmed they had a treatment, but did want to inform me that it was not a guarantee. I accepted that and had them begin treatment. They have treated my palm quarterly for a year now and now my palm has a lot of new growth and appears that it is going to make it. This palm is a major part of my landscape and has a lot of sentimental meaning to me and my family. We are so grateful to AGPest. Although, it is not a guarantee I would recommend this treatment and AGPest to anyone concerned about their Cannery Island Palm. read more

I decided to give a local company my business. I hadn't had any problems with ants in my kitchen for over a year and the morning after Dave treated my yard for ants my kitchen pantry and countertops were covered in ants. I immediately called and asked for a manager. Dave told me he was the manager. I told him about the kitchen ants and he said they were in the walls already. He offered to come back again and spot treat with gel my kitchen counter and pantry. He was very defensive and accusatory and blamed me for having ants in my walls already. I had contracted with the company for monthly maintenance. Very disappointed with this local company services. read more

Just wanted to give Charles from Agpest a shout out. He's reliable, dedicated and consistent in providing our rodent prevention service. He calls before he arrives so that we can be prepared for the service. He keeps us informed about the usage of the bait boxes and lets us know if we need to move the boxes to better respond to our rat issues. We're happy that Charles is our service provider from Agpest. read more

After many years of happy service from this company, my husband and I are now very dissatisfied with AG pest customer service. The first issue is when we called for a free reteat for gophers. Keep in mind we just had our monthly service performed a week prior. Jeff came out and took care of things as he always does (Jeff has always done right by us). We got a bill for another service fee. When we called to complain and request this bill to be dropped, we were told since it is a new month as service fee is to be applied. We did not like this and we're very upset but we decided, fluke. Won't happen again since we have always had great service before. Fast forward 3 weeks later. We need another retreat for gophers. We call and get our guy Jeff out to do his thing. Again another service fee. We call again and get, it is time for your monthly service. WHAT???? Needless to say we are dropping AG pest and finding another company that is not stuck on the bottom line. We don't mind paying a little extra for customer service but if this is how you get your money. I don't need it. read more

Bree in the office called an hour before our scheduled termite inspection to say their employee had a personal ER attend to and they could not do inspection. Originally I told her we were closing escrow in a week and needed this asap. We rescheduled again and they did a no show. She claimed it was originally set for Thursday however after reviewing my voice recording it confirmed I was not crazy and they did not show up when promised. Today was the last straw just now I learned the tech did not enter the gate because it had a bungee cord. He considered that locked and left. The seller said in 30 yrs that they have had a simpler bungee cord noone has ever not come in because of this. Bree in the office suggested I find another company. Way to go Bree leave your customers out in the cold when the going gets tough!? read more

AGPEST has serviced my property for the last 2 years and more recently in the past 6 months a new technician named Charles has been completing the monthly service. Charlie does an excellent job eliminating the rodents, spiders, gophers, rats and mice. I live in a rural area and the rats plentiful. Charlie also goes the extra mile and points out areas on the property that need to be repaired to eliminate access to the home. He even pointed out a coyote digging spot under the fence and eliminated the hole. Many thanks for great service. read more

Charles is an amazing pest control expert! He has taken care of our property as if it was his own home! Steller service with a smile and friendly attitude. Happy New year Charles! read more

Jeff was so great to work with. He was so quick to respond to my massive ant invasion, and not a single ant was around by the time we got home from work! He was also the only person able to solve our pesky gopher problem. read more

We have used agricultural pest control on our home for 17 years. We have half an acre of property, and on it are lots of trees, bushes and opportunities for critters to roam and wreak havoc. When we first moved in there were literally rats jumping over a walkway in the backyard to get from one grazing area to another. Soon after, we called Ag Pest and the parade of rodents came to an end, though of course they still crop up every now and then. Over 17 years of course, questions and issues arise here and there, and each time I have dealt with JR from their office. Every single time he has been extremely personable, knowledgeable, and eager to make this customer happy, and he has. I also need to mention our current technician, Charles, as frankly they do not come any better than him. Charles is very friendly and personable, but more importantly, he takes tremendous pride in doing the very best job for his customers. He spends a lot of time on our property, going through everything and finding all the issues and being very successful in dealing with them. My wife and I could not be more pleased with Charles, JR, and Ag Pest, and we hope their services are around for a long time. read more

I had my house fumigated and was very pleased with the price and service of AgPest. The inspector was on time and up front with what to expect. I was hesitant about the whole process, but everything went smooth. I highly recommend AgPest. read more

This is not a post about their service but one of their driver's erratic driving while in Costa Mesa. While at a stop light, he honked at cars to move out of the way so he can drive on the bike lane in order to get ahead to the right turn lane. I had two small children inside my van at the time and he had no regards what so ever. You have to ask if they are so careless on the road with a 3,000lbs vehicle that can kill people, how careful can they be around your home or propert read more

I have been a customer of AgPest for years and get approached often by other companies to change to their service. I always graciously decline and explain how we have always had wonderful, competent and reasonably priced service and technicians from AgPest. When we have had issues that require immediate service, someone always responds right away. Charles has not only been a delightful person to deal with, he's also a wealth of knowledge about anything that moves and is unwanted around our house. Thank you Charles and thank you AgPest. read more

What a blessing Tom, Adam, and James were to come rescue us from a nightmare of new pests on my mother's property! We had Agricultural service done around my mother's home, an acre with hundreds of eucalyptus trees, lots of leaves on a 8mile long paved drive way and parking area. The staff were excellent, professional and caring! I was so Blessed to find them, as my mom's current household pest control company recommended this company to help with trees, drive way, parking area and all around home, patio, motorhomes, and cars, because she was suddenly invaded with something like chiggers/couldn't see anything but your feet and legs were attacked and bitten up stinging when you walked outside on property, and at the same time the trees were invaded suddenly over two months with spiders spreading actually living in the trees making nests everywhere! It was a nightmare! They were coming down on my car when I came to visit my mother! [[HIGHLIGHT]]I called AD Pest in a frantic, and they scheduled Tom to come out to figure out the tree spider situation and what to do about it, and they sent Adam out to spay the drive way and parking areas, and then Tom arranged for James to come to deal with the spiders in the trees, around home driveway and parking areas![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Wonderful results! And the price was very beyond reasonable. They really went over and above anything I expected! They really do care, and sorry for anyone that didn't have as a great experience as I did with the employees! But, I assure you, Tom and the others I dealt with do care. Remember, It is hard to find good help now days, I understand as a business owner. So please give them them a chance to correct it if an employee was the problem. I will be calling them back again to continue to treat the large property! I found out they do regular household pest control too and highly recommend them! They do everything pest related! read more

We use Agpest to spray our canary palm trees after we lost two of them to weevils. They are reliable, thorough and knowledgeable.

We were expecting an easy enough process, considering how much preparation work went into getting our condo complex ready to be fumigated. We were given very specific instructions on how to leave our keys for access to our home, and to our storage units in the carport. We left our keys as instructed, and upon returning home found that they had drilled out our locks to our storage units. We were unable to return home for several days after we were allowed to return, and realized the doors to the storage units had been open the whole time, without any notification that they had unsecured our valuables. We weren't the only ones affected. Several other neighbors had left their keys just as instructed, and also got their locks cut or drilled. We emailed AG Pest the night we returned (over two weeks ago) and never received a response. A second email also got no response. Secure your belongings, and go with someone else. read more

I had the worst experience ever with this company. Their employee, David Lewis dropped maggots all over our counters and floors when he removed a rat. Professionals put them in a bag before walking out of someones home!!! The maggots which WE had the pleasure of finding and cleaning up, and missed some, turned in to very large Flys. So we had a FLY problem shortly thereafter. To top it off David lied several times to us... telling us he "had picked up traps" or he "had not picked them up" or "there were not any left behind" and all of those statements were inaccurate in every single instance. So after this major fiasco I call the owner...who thinks it's funny to laugh about it the entire phone call. They tout themselves as PROFESSIONALS?? That is totally unprofessional especially given we had maggots all over. If my HOA wasn't contracted with them I would never, ever use them again. They did send out another employee Craig ( who was wonderful) even told us David was using very "OLD" traps and he removed them and set "NEW" traps. So do they SUBCONTRACT the territories? David must be cutting corners, on top of everything else. If I could this would be a minus star rating given how the Owner behaved. No apology and no acceptance of any responsibility. Now I have another rat in the attic and the want to send David out....what do you think about that? read more

So far, so good. I made an appointment, they were busy so it took a few days which is totally normal. The home office was polite and helpful. The guy that came out was super polite and helpful. Everyone was serious about their work, took a look around, explained the service,got down to business and dipped out- which is my FAVORITE type of service. No up sales, no accidental sprays of my flowers, no weird convos or watching us through the windows...just fast, honest work. And the repellent they sprayed worked! read more

I called this company because I was having a rodent issue at my home. My first impression was the office was extremely professional and quick to get me an appointment immediately. The tech that came to my home was courteous and very knowledgeable. I would HIGHLY recommend AGPest. They took take care of my rodent problem and I will continue to use them in the future for any and ALL of my pest control needs. THANK YOU AGPEST!! read more

I've hired Agpest to get rid of golfers and termites and I've had a fantastic experience with great results for every service call. I highly recommend this company. read more

Recently, I had a kitchen full of ants and they were also all around the exterior of my home. Charles , from Agricultural pest control , did a fantastic job getting rid of all of them. He sprayed outside and inside and no more problems !! Now,every two months he sprays again, so I have no ant issues. He also took care of gopher activity in my backyard. I highly recommend Agricultural pest control !! Faye B. read more

This was one of the worst business dealings I have ever had. I hired this company last fall. The initial visit was great, the man (I can't recall his name) who came out was wonderful. Super friendly and put my worries at ease. He came back the next month ... and then that was it. Apparently he is no longer with the company.They have been charging my landlord for 7 months and only came back one time. I called to resolve the issue and spoke with the manager. He came out to my house and told me he would do some research into what happened and make it right. This was a Monday and he said he would get back to me by Friday. I never heard from him. I called two Friday's later and canceled the service. I understand that things happen and we somehow slipped though the cracks, however I lost all faith in this business after that. Management is horribly unprofessional. read more

I'd liked dealing with them last year and was prepared to have them out again this year to do some spraying, but they won't call me back. I don't get it. read more

They treated my eucalyptus tree for fungus and it worked like a charm. They came within a few days and did the work at a good price. I'm very happy and will continue to use them! read more

AGPest does cover the Temecula and Murrieta areas which was a huge relief to me when looking for a good company take care of a rat problem in our home. Another company had quoted me sky-high prices to "seal up my house," meaning close off any entry points that rodents could use to get into my house, especially the attic where we had evidence of a rat. The "other company" quoted me $1,700 to "seal" the house. AGPest quoted $75 per hole or entry point. Even if I had a dozen places needing to be repaired or closed off (which I didn't) it would not come anywhere near the price a different pest company wanted to charge! Another thing, we were quoted only $195 by AGPest for 10 traps in the attic with 5 visits to check the traps. Again, this was a better price than the first company I called. AGPest does many HOAs and commercial jobs, including office complexes and Camp Pendleton. Since they do residential I would encourage anyone who thinks they have a problem with pests to call them first. Service is awesome, friendly, helpful and honest. read more

Maybe you should remove 'Riverside County' from your website instead of giving customers attitude when asking for services there. You show up in the search engine because You list that you service that county. Attitude isn't called for or saying that a customers job isn't worth the drive. Transparency is key. read more

This isn't about the business and their services, this is about some of theirdrivers. Twice in the last month I've had an AG pest truck cut in front of me and then immediately slam on the brakes. And I think it was actually the same driver. Obviously I have no idea what his name is all I know is that he drives like a jerk and he's putting people in danger with his erratic driving. Please review safe driving with your employees cuz this is getting ridiculous read more

I didn't have a good experience with this company. One of my tenants report me he had seen few maggots in his unit, I called AGPEST. They come and inspect the unit, they said 2 treatments were in need, one outside the perimeter of the house and one inside the unit. That day we agreed on the price for both treatments, with the inside part being done a week later. A week pass by, the day scheduled arrive, I advised my tenant, nobody showed up, nobody called to reschedule. So, I called to see what happened and I reschedule for the second time. Nobody showed up again. Nobody called. Keep in mind I paid in advance for both treatments. The second time I decided that they were no serious and I decided to cancel their service. They refuse to refund me for tHe service they didn't provide. No fair, this is why I shared my experience on yelp read more

This company has been taking care of our Pest Control needs for the past 5+ years. They have been a very good company that performs a wide variety of pest control services at a reasonable cost. David has typically been "the guy" that services our account. He is friendly, courteous and is very knowledgeable. He has performed our quarterly service, which is always thorough. We rarely have bug or gopher issues in between his quarterly service, but if we do, he gets out here quickly and resolves the problem. David is a great employee! read more

Great company! Great staff and service. I use this company for a couple of my locations and have had no sign of pests! Thank you!

Fantastic customer service, extremely knowledgeable and professional. Kyle felt confident the problem was taken care of after the first go around and it was! We especially appreciated the follow up inspection and spot spraying just to be on the safe side. Thank you, Kyle, for ending our bedbug nightmare! read more
