Robert gave some helpful advice and treatment last week by treating the Crepe Myrtles next to the front door for ants and encouraging me to call back in a week if there were still any problems. The ants were mostly cleared up in the kitchen this week. However, there were still more ant problems on the second floor. Chandler came out today and treated the second floor again. Hope it works this time. He also treated outside areas. Both men were polite and wore foot coverings and face masks. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]they reschedule you multiple times and never show[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Each time they come, the reoccurrence of issues compounds.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Their representative came to our door well after 8pm and disregarded the no soliciting sign placed directly over the doorbell.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They continued to harass the rest of the neighborhood well after 9pm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I called their customer service to report this behavior and was told there was nothing they could do.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I have no desire to hire a company that cannot respect my peace and privacy nor provide meaningful information regarding this kind of behavior.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

aptive hires deceitful and unprofessional salesmen that make false promises in efforts to bring on new clients. additionally, their techs show up with nothing more than a hand pump sprayer and will not actually spray your whole yard, irregardless of sales promises. Don't waste your money on this company otherwise you will find yourself paying their $200 cancellation fee due to how bad their service actually is. read more

These people are money grabbers. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They recommend how often you should have your services performed but then they schedule without consulting you.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You have to constantly go into your account or call them to reschedule or they'll come out and hit you for $200+ dollars. I wish I would have read reviews before I signed on the dotted line. Lesson learned! BEWARE of this company. read more

I never write reviews on social media, but this company needs to be investigated for deceptive trade practices and fraud. I signed up for their service in February and I was given a quarterly payment plan. They billed me monthly for the next 4 months at the quarterly rate we agreed upon. The amount paid in those four months should have been what I paid for the full year on the quarterly plan. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I called their customer service line and was told that to be billed quarterly, I would have to pay approximately $50 more. I explained that I had already made four payments, so I should be good for the year. She stated that they had me on a monthly plan and there was nothing she could do about those payments[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I regrettably agreed to the new quarterly amount. Two months later, I noticed that they billed me the increased "quarterly" rate in June and August. I contact customer service again. He agreed that I was on a quarterly payment schedule, but could not explain why I made "quarterly" payments in a two month period. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I told him that I wanted to cancel my service because they are either crooks, or extremely incompetent. Of course he comes back with an offer of a discount on continued service, which I refused[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Then he tells me that he can not cancel my service because I am not calling from the phone number on the account, so I would need to call back or send an email requesting cancellation.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Long story short, if an Aptive sales rep knocks on your door, don't even give them an opportunity to make their sales pitch. They will make promises that they have no intention of keeping. They also have a $200 cancellation policy, which I am sure comes into play with a lot of their customers. I wish I had seen the Yelp reviews before signing up for service. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Within a year I waisted 3 different days waiting for a service technician that never showed up.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I was told I would receive a credit for my inconvenience, which never came.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The last breaking straw was the agent I scheduled an appointment with gave me completely miss information on what the tech could do.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I needed him in attic for rodents but when he called, he said they don't do that. So again, waisted another day. Find a more reliable service, they're Not it! Then they charged me $200 to cancel service! read more

Aggressive and inappropriate sales person. He relieved himself in public on a neighbors fence. He was cursing at people, refusing to take no for an answer and was knocking incessantly while looking into my window at 8:30 pm. Absolutely unacceptable and will call the police if he ever reruns. read more

We had them for years and wanted to cancel and do the treatments ourselves. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When we called we waited on hold for over 30 minutes when told we wanted to cancel our service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Representative gave husband a hard time trying to cancel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] will never again use this company. read more

Let me start this by saying. . .I have NEVER had issues directly with technicians. They are some of the most professional and courteous technicians of any kind that I have ever dealt with. [[HIGHLIGHT]]However, management, corporate and customer service seem to only exist to take your money.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Although they are a 12 billion dollar company, these are things I have heard directly from technicians. 1. Just spray water (from a manager) 2. They frown on replacing equipment as needed 3. They fire people for things they were told were ok 4. There are better products, and they know this 5. They are supposed to sell up customers even though they have sales people [[HIGHLIGHT]]This company does not care about their customers once you sign that contract.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They treat their technicians like crap even though they are the face of the company. In spite of this, the technicians are very professional and courteous which speaks volumes about them and little about the company they work for. The owner of the company is either oblivious of what is going on in his company or complacent. Too bad yelp makes you put a star. read more

If I could leave 0 stars I would. Worst pest control service ever. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I gave them a chance due to an extremely pushy sales guy, against my better judgment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] After a few months with them I started having more bugs then I have ever seen in my life. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I kept trying to cancel and they wouldn't let me, kept sending guys to "solve the problem" = do nothing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you're looking for a company to come feed your bugs and make things worse then give them a call! read more

After I wrote a check, they changed the amount of the deposit. I was lied to by 3 different people. I will never use them again.

All they do is lie. When they run out of product they will just spay water and still charge you the same. Very fraudulent company.

I suppose I can at least give Aptive credit that their service works as I have not have pest issues since entering a contract with them. However, they'll drain you for all you're worth. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Service was initially sold as an easy as needed, scheduled treatment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]In reality, rescheduling unneeded appointments is nearly impossible without getting someone on the phone.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Text reschedules, if even provided (as in the last 8 months they seem to have removed to option to reschedule via text half the time), are only able to bump your appointment by a max of two weeks - if they show any available appointment slots at all.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Then they'll book you again without having any check in on your last day of service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]My final straw was trying to cancel a service planned for a day, being told it was too late to do so, and then receiving a message that my next appointment was scheduled for less than a week later.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Predatory, difficult to use, and way too expensive. read more

They have accomplished nothing and 3 trips in a row they were out of mosquito traps. I canceled and got them to waive that $200 cancellation fee. Works pretty well if you explain to them you studied contract law and how the contract not only ensures payment, but also completion of services. If you don't do what you said you would, then I'm not giving you money. Simple as that read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Lies, Lies, Lies! Hard pressure sale with lies.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]1 all your neighbors have joined, Lie![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 2 It will only cost you $300/year if you sign a 2 year contract, Lie! The cost is $200/month with a minimum of $2400.00 over 2 years, and they don't kill the bugs. Mosquitoes got so much worse. The only thing they killed were bees and butterflies. Absolutely no value for the money spent. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Horrible customer service with no care or concern for how the service was sold and the lies the salesman told.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They deserve zero stars. Big cancellation fee, $200 Just slam the door when they come. read more

Beware of this company that goes door to door focusing on retired folks. They offer free or reduced insect inspection "because they are in the neighborhood ". Don't answer the door don't sign up it is just another predator. Sad to be a target just because you reach a certain age. read more

Had my quarterly service today. I explained very clearly that my back gate MUST be closed when he finished because the dog will bolt out the second I open the door if it isn't. 20 minutes after he left, I opened the back door so she could go out and pee. And out the open gate she went. Had to spend 45 minutes with my distraught child going after her. Called customer service and got "ok, I logged your negative experience," with no offer of anything to make up for what we went through. If we hadn't been able to get out dog back, you can be guaranteed of a really bad time. I'm now extremely dizzy and feeling awful because of health issues making running extremely difficult. Do not use this company if you want people who can follow simple instructions. read more

Aptive Pest Control - This is what their service tech considers a closed gate apparently. - Pest Control Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

This company is horrible! STAY AWAY! They are trying to ruin my credit, by pushing services I didn't ask for. They are constantly doing services without my permission, and then sending my past due amounts to collections agency's. If you have any sense DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY! read more

Sucked from the get-go. Regret answering the door, I usually don't, so I'm especially kicking myself about it now. Salesman was doing a great job suckering me into signing up, saying our neighbors so and so had their services, saying they took care of mosquitos which I was adamant about. Kept getting right in my doorway (this was over a year ago, during the pandemic) and stated that he was vaccinated so it should be fine that he is so close to me and my living quarters without a mask (eye roll). Signed up for quarterly services which were more than our previous provider. Our initial service, no one showed up. Tried again and no one showed up. Third time they did show up. I was in contact with the salesman the whole time, felt we should get the $50 Amazon gift card they were touting for new customers for this inconvenience, he said since we already signed up we did not qualify but would pay for it out of his own pocket. He never did. As I said before, we've had this company for over a year. Here are the things I've noticed. They constantly try to come out every month. We signed up for quarterly. They forget that constantly. We have cameras in our yard, there have definitely been times they come out and charge up for front and back yard and the cameras never pick up anyone in the backyard. No decrease in bugs. Increase in spiders and earwigs in our house, absolutely no decrease in mosquitos or bugs outside. There has been times we get a good tech who takes photos of things he finds and texted it to me. That's was maybe twice though, in over a year. We are finally going to cancel our service after again, we have a text reminder about some scheduled service this month after they just came out last month. read more

I believe his name is Jordan Steele, very disrespectful and gets angry when I tell him no thanks and he needs to get off my property after he passed 2 no soliciting signs and a no trespassing sign. He is argumentive, calls names and doesn't represent your company very well. I would stay clear of this business if this is the type of people they employ. Police came to talk to him. read more

Aptive Pest Control - Pest Control Near Me - Fort Worth, Texas

Very questionable business practices and employees. I started with Aptive and did not ask for automatic billing, after second appointment, to my surprise my card was charged immediately after the service, throwing my budget out of balance. Now after a couple days after service they start calling and harassing me about my unpaid balance, which I always pay. BEWARE OF UNPROFESSIONAL AND DISHONEST EMPLOYEES AND MANAGEMENT. Last service appointment the guy came and sprayed my house. I was having issues with roommate, now ex-roommate, and he told the guy he could have anything in the garage he wanted... which were all my belongings (tools, 3D printers, etc). I arrived and asked the Aptive guy if the roommate was giving away my stuff and was told no. Later looking at security cameras I notice the guy carrying items out of my garage... I contact him and his response is "I just sprayed for bugs, I didn't lay my hands on anything". After going through videos I saw over $3000 worth of my items go into the Aptive van. After contacting the guy again, he tells me that he was told he could have it (different story from what he originally told me). After contacting Aptive, his supervisor contacted me and said he would return my belongings. I only got about $300 worth of stuff back (small compressor, toolbox with plumbing pieces/tools, and old chop saw). Just some of the items taken and not returned Creality CR-10 3D Printer, XYZ Printing 3D Printer, Rigid Stacking tool box full of hand tools and complete Porter Cable Cordless tool set, Milwaukee reciprocating saw (almost new), numerous boxes of hand tools. The manager said it was a big misunderstanding and nobody was at fault... I disagree completely. I never accused Aptive of steeling anything, nor have do I now accuse them of steeling since the roommate gave it to him, but when called out about the incident within half an hour of leaving my house, I was told "I was only there for 15 minutes spraying for bugs" when in fact I have videos of him going through my garage and making repeated trips to his van with my stuff for over 35 minutes, after spaying for bugs. Only "good" thing I can say is he did spray for bugs! read more

They are absolutely terrible. Would not recommend them to anyone who actually wants to have their problem solved. Will scam you out of a lot of money without giving you any actual value for your money. read more

Young technician today did an "excellent" job. He should be a teacher/trainer for other techs on "what right looks like". He was extremely thorough inside and outside and had good attention to detail. He was polite, inquisitive for insects, leaning on his own research to determine their sites. Depends on your technician, but he was great, his name is Von....ask for him by name..... read more

Don't allow Aptive to have your credit card information on file!!! I have been a customer for over 6 years and recently had scheduled an appointment for pest control service. The technician never arrived, but my credit card was charged anyway. Aptive is refusing to give me a refund. They will only schedule a new appointment. Rather than holding their employee accountable for being honest and providing service with integrity, they are punishing their longtime customer. read more

Good lord! I answered the door a few minutes before a meeting, big mistake!! I told the guy to leave info because I had to go. He would not stop with the spill. 5 times I said I was not trying to be rude, but I need to go! He kept on trying to get my phone number and for me to commit to service. I might have considered it if he was not so pushy! I came on here and read the other reviews. Glad I did. The way he acted was a real red flag. read more

It is now 5:54pm Tuesday 1Sep2020. Today I was billed $107.17 for spraying my residence. This spraying according to Aptive was accomplished today by a Mr. Evans. At this hour no one has been to my house today or any time in several days. My wife and I have not been out of the house all day. To spray the outside requires me to unlock a gate for entrance to my yard as my drive has an electric gate as the only other entrance to my house. Either spray my residence or refund my money and cancel my contract. At this point I would just as soon cancel my contract because I am not comfortable with Aptive. Merl YORK read more

I hired them and they charged me $120 up front then said they were coming a few weeks later. I received a text from the technician saying they were 20 minutes out. I was outside cleaning my pool making sure my dogs don't get out. I message the technician asking if they were close because it had been a while. They tell me they already came and left. I told them I was outside the whole time. Cleaning my pool and they say they didn't go into the backyard. I get an invoice charging my card saying they didn't my whole property when they didn't and I have proof they didn't. I'm upset so I call to cancel because they breached the contract and they said I need to pay 199.00 to cancel. They are con artists and I am sending a complaint to the Texas attorney general. I suggest everyone else do the same. read more

See all

* Salesman shows info on ipad * Offers one-time discount on first treatment * Does not tell you what you're actually in for 1. Locked in for so many days or 6 treatments after initial treatment 2. All remaining treatments will cost you $189.44/each if you add mosquito trmt. 3. They will schedule you every single month before you realize it 4. The first treatment is not included in the six, even though it's stated standard in the contract 5. The contract will be emailed upon request and will have a fraudulent signature. (Not your ipad signature.) 6. You can request to keep the same person, but will not succeed even if you call 7. They will cancel and reschedule appointments at their discretion and convenience with an automated system 8. You must call or write to cancel the program only after the 6th (7th) standard treatment 9. The treatments last approximately 20-30 minutes 10. You have to request indoor and outdoor service each time 11. You have to mention mosquito treatment so they fill the mosquito containers each time 12. When you sign up, you give them your bank card number and are at their mercy 13. Again, unless you pay attention, you will be scheduled every month and will end up paying over $1,100 in six months! 14. No matter what, you will be bound to their contract even though you never actually read it on the ipad. PLEASE DO NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS SERVICE UNLESS YOU DON'T MIND SPENDING YOUR MONEY! I have found keeping the sink drains closed helps with the awful water bugs!!! read more

Lorenzo wes very communicative before arriving to my home. He explained what he was going to do about my bee problem and that bees will move on soon due to the weather changing.

Please beware of this company! They sprayed for bugs on the exterior and interior of our house about 4 months ago; and now we can't get them to stop pestering us to come back each month to spray again and again! They robo-call us and tell us they are coming for "our appointment" on a certain day and then there is no way to cancel. When you call them; they don't answer! Now they have told us they are coming tomorrow and we never made an appointment! We have put notes on our front door telling them we DO NOT WANT their services; and yet they keep coming back. read more

WARNING: I called in to pause service due to a family emergency in December and this company did a forced auto-reschedule I then had to deal with. They then did an unauthorized visit and charge to my credit card. You will see the other reviewers stating this company has unethical business practices in play. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH APTIVE. When I tried to call Blaine's number it said the voicemail was not set up. read more

I did not use their service but the way the guy banged on my door multiple times and then taunted my dogs by then banging on my glass window to make them bark even more (I have it all on camera) while my niece was asleep then to ring to door bell after not answering the did not leave a good taste in my mouth. What female would answer the door with not just one but five unknown guys after banging on the door like that. Unacceptable. After reading multiple reviews it seems that their customer service and training may be lacking in some areas and I will not recommend their service to anyone. read more

Kiro Murphy was excellent today, very pleasant and did a great job. Definitely hope Kiro is our regular technician!
