I called Cody Britt after reading some posts on Nextdoor. He came the same day and went out of his way to provide comprehensive service: he sprayed areas inside and outside the house, put powder down, filled holes, set traps, cleaned broken debris off the porch where I was bitten and dropped a potted plant (which I was terrified to return to), checked my chimneys for possible entry points and answered all my questions thoroughly and patiently. He was generous, kind and professional with his attention to detail. Best of all, he proposed an ongoing plan for treatments during the year to prevent future wasp "takeovers." Phew - I can't tell you how relieved I am! You can reach Cody at 828-787-7378 .

Cody was able to come out soon after I contacted him for the initial appointment. He did a thorough…read morejob and explained everything he did to me to my satisfaction. He also came out separately to handle an ant infestation in my wall, and at no charge because I was paying for quarterly service. I later had a Yellowjacket nest being built on a fence near a door on my home, and he came out the next morning after being contacted at night. Yellowjacket removal fee was $65, but totally worth it due to their aggressive nature and difficulty to remove. Long story short, I highly recommend Cody and Patriot Environmental!

We hired Catchy Pest Solutions with the hope of resolving a persistent pest issue -- but our…read moreexperience was frustrating, unprofessional, and ultimately a waste of time and money. They repeatedly "guaranteed" their work, but offered no meaningful actions to back that up. We were told again and again that the situation was "under control," yet nothing ever improved. Communication was poor, and there was no clear plan or accountability between visits. Each technician seemed unaware of what the last had done. One of the most frustrating issues was how they handled the traps. Despite our repeated requests, the traps were rarely cleaned or reset properly. Rotting bait was often left untouched on the traps for days or even dumped into our garden beds -- creating an even bigger mess and drawing in more animals. It felt like no one was taking basic precautions or showing professional care. To top it off, on day one they caught a groundhog -- and then lost it due to a faulty trap. After that failure, they offered us a kill trap as a solution, but we no longer trusted them with humane or lethal methods. If they couldn't handle live trapping responsibly, there was no way we felt safe letting them escalate to kill traps. Honestly, I could have done a better job myself -- and ultimately had to. I rarely write negative reviews, but I hope this helps someone else avoid the same wasted time, stress, and money.

Wow!!! What a TERRIBLE experience :(…read more Orkin didn't show up for their first two appointments when I signed up for monthly spraying of my half dozen vacation rentals. After finally showing up they come once in April and once in May....then NOTHING. They do not come at all in June. Finally on July 13th I call to cancel services and explain how they never show up (and also that our bug issue wasn't resolved anyway) and the agent tells me that I am signed up for services every 2 months and not every month! What!? Why would I do that- totally inaffective. So she says she has cancelled the account and all is good. So TODAY is SATURDAY July 24th- I wake up at 8:15 am to see an email saying that Orkin came to my vacation rental property at 7AM!!! Guests have windows without curtains and even when we had service with them they were told they could only come week days between 10am and 4pm!!! Now I'm getting calls from very angry people that they woke up to a creeper outside of their windows at 7am. Orkin is the absolute WORST! Currently spending another hour of my life on the phone with them to try YET AGAIN to cancel services with them. I was just given apologies (which are worth nothing) and reassured that now it definitely is cancelled. DO NOT HIRE ORKIN. BUNCH OF CLOWNS

Knowing that most people only post reviews with unhappy experiences, I feel that I must give proper…read morerecognition to this company. I have been using Apex Pest Control since I purchased my home near downtown Asheville (Montford) in 2010. I am on monthly treatments (for mosquitos, etc. in the summer, as well as other services that accommodate those treatments. They have always been very responsive, professional and accommodating with my every need. I am a real estate broker, and have suggested their services to many, many clients of mine in the past, and my clients have alway (every time) been extremely happy, as well. SO, here is where the real kicker is... I have a rental home in the same neighborhood. When purchasing the home, there was a termite bond with another company. Needless to say, we needed to keep services with that other company to keep the bond active. Because of that, we had regular pest treatments to that house as well, just to keep things simple. Last weekend, my tenants called me to let me know that there was a flea issue in the house. I wanted it addressed immediately, believing that nobody should have to deal with such and issue (they do not have pets in the house). I called our "regular" pest control company. They told us that they were very busy, but would try to fit us in. They called back about 20 minutes later and indicated that they would be there between 5:30-6:00 that evening. My tenants waited until 8:00pm before they called me to say that the company was a NO SHOW (again, not Apex). This was unacceptable to me... not even a phone call. The next morning, I talked with Jeff from Apex. I was frantic trying to get this horrible situation taken care of. He indicated that they were very backed up and that they could try to squeeze me in on the next day. I am sure that he could sense that I was very upset (not with him, but the situation and not wanting my tenants to deal with this). I told him that my tenants had their son and grandson coming in the following day, and that I was going to have to put them all up in hotel rooms because it was not right to have them stay in an infested house. Jeff called back in about 10 minutes and told me that they could be at the house in 15 minutes if I could make it available to them. They came, treated, all is well and all are happy. The end of the story is... this home was not even a home that is a regular for them. Maybe because I was/am a regular, they took that into consideration. Either way, they took care of me in a desperate situation. They cared for me when they didn't need to, and were very professional and caring. I highly recommend them. Thank you Jeff and Weaverville Apex!!!!!

DO NOT USE THESE SCUMBAGS !! GET WOKE AND GO BROKE !!…read more I have been a loyal customer for years. They started using the "Terminix" model which means they poison your house at nauseum without a care at all for the environment - or if the method is good for you and your family. They are doubling the work load of the service people and cutting the time of scheduled visits in half. Is there anyone out there who doesn't want to be a greedy scumbag...? Anyone ?? I overlooked all of this until I just had someone just come here and lie that he did the job. He left without doing anything - because my friend was watching - and they still billed me $107.00 (for zero work). I was furious and complained that this is the same as theft -- and this morning they just called to tell me to find another company. SERIOUSLY ?! THEY SEND THEIR TRUCKS OUT WITHOUT EQUIPMENT EVERY SINGLE VISIT AND ALWAYS SAY IT WAS BECAUSE SOMEONE ELSE HAD THE TRUCK THE NIGHT BEFORE. Very nice people answering the phones with no brains. Wish them all the best. DO NOT RECOMMEND!
