We look forward to seeing Delwin. He is courteous and knows the bug business. He is honest because if he doesn't know he says so and finds out. I like that in a service technician. We had an ant and mouse problem. The ant problem was major. EcoShield came in and did there thing. This was a year ago and I haven't seen a single ant since. The same person comes here each visit and knows the area. He cleans the house on the outside getting rid of any spider webs which also have been reduced greatly. I forgot about that...we used to have spider webs all over the outdoor furniture and ....no longer. read more

Ecoshield has deceptive sales practices and misrepresentation of their service contracts. In May 2026, a sales representative came to my home and pressured me to sign immediately, stating the price would increase if I waited. I told him that I did not care for the pressure and asked him to leave so I could do my research. He did not leave and in fact applied more pressure. I did continue to listen, and I specifically asked whether the service included a monthly fee. He explicitly told me there was NO monthly fee and I could cancel anytime with no penalty. Based on these representations, I signed the contract on his iPad and received service that same day. I received an automated text confirming the agreement and replied "yes" for transparency. I was surprised to discover a monthly charge on my account. When I experienced a pest problem, I called customer service. The process was inefficient and script-based. The service itself was inferior to services I have had in the past. There is absolutely NO LOCAL SUPPORT. After consideration and research, I decided to switch providers and called to cancel. I was then informed that the contract I signed had a $235 cancelation fee. I asked for this to be waived and was given no avenue to escalate or dispute this charge. read more

DO NOT RECOMMEND!We terminated our contract once, but they convinced us to give them another chance. When we ultimately terminated for good, they tried to charge us an early termination fee. Throughout our time with them, we repeatedly requested service and had very little success getting the issues addressed. Someone would come out, look at the problem, and tell us they would send someone to take care of it--but that would be the last we heard until another bill showed up online. read more

I do not recommend EcoShield Pest Control. Despite having clearly posted "No Soliciting" signs, representatives have come to my home multiple times and continued to knock and attempt sales pitches. Ignoring homeowners' posted requests not to solicit is disrespectful and creates a frustrating experience. Please respect homeowners' wishes and their posted signage. read more

Pest control companies are the scourge of the environment, but even if I did want to use one, I would NEVER go with EcoShield. We had someone come to our door and was on our property NOT listening to me saying we aren't interested for almost 10 minutes. I have the whole interaction on Ring. I was very patient and kept just saying that we aren't interested, no thank you, etc. because I knew this guy was just trying to get business for his employer. Finally my husband got fed up and opened the door and asked him to leave. Please see videos attached of how kind I was, and then his words after my husband asked me to leave. Once we realized we were home, he said "shoulda BEEN come out." And then mumbled something about "white women" and finally called me a "b*tch." I WISH my husband had heard that part while he was still on our property lol. As soon as we watched the rest of the Ring recording, we called EcoShield. The rep I spoke to said that it was a different company, not EcoShield. I asked how there could be another company with the same name and logo, and he didn't know how to respond. He told me I have to email them. I emailed them, and then they said I had to call. They DO NOT CARE about this behavior because this is what they encourage. This salesperson was in our neighborhood for hours (until at least 7 pm), harassing so many households that the police got involved. This information was also shared with EcoShield in my email, as well as this man's name since the police obtained it for our neighbor (she was worried that he was casing the neighborhood since he was so aggressive). This company encourages their salespeople to be aggressive and bully people into giving them business. It is NOT okay. (Also, please use natural remedies if pests are becoming a burden! Those chemicals kill bees, which hurt local farmers, neighbors' gardens, and the natural food chain) UPDATE: I was only able to post the video of him being a racist misogynist, not the video showing how I was NOT being a b*tch unfortunately. Also, I went to post this review on google, came across their website, and their website is FULL of lies. They have a picture of them having a five star google rating, which they clearly took from an actually reputable business' website. I was able to attach this picture at least. They are hideously unethical. read more

EcoShield Pest Solutions - This looks like a link to view their reviews, however it is a png/jpeg. See how you can share it to Pinterest lol. This company's pathetic - Pest Control Near Me - Glen Allen, Virginia

This company is a complete rip off. STAY AWAY!!! They will tell you they are doing your entire neighborhood and can add you in for cheap but its just their sales pitch. Its false advertising. They have you sign a large contract on their small phone on the spot, while telling you the cost is very low, but it is not. They did not schedule any treatment with me in advance, and when the schedule did not work on the weekday because of my dogs not being able to access the backyard, they told me they did not work weekends. They charges me over $500 and did not treat my entire property one single time. read more

I wish I had read these reviews before signing up with them. I paid them $1K to deal with a mouse problem last year. It seemed to work well but they recently returned. They wanted to charge me an additional $3K. Um no, I'm not that stupid. Stay away, these guys are crooks. read more

Today this company disregarded our no soliciting sign. I asked the man who knocked if he was soliciting, he said they were doing work for our neighbor and I stepped out to see if they needed us to move something, or talk about the work, then he started talking about our home and pests. He was soliciting, and ignored our sign, my question about solicitation, and leveraged our neighbor to start the conversation. I think companies today are under the impression that they can solicit despite no soliciting signs and requests, but they trespassed today, interrupted meetings for both my husband and I as we work from home, and we will remember that if we look for any pest help, we keep a list of which companies disregard our no soliciting sign, especially those who continue to try to sell to us after we bring up the sign to their employees." read more

Service was good. Always on schedule. Ant sightings greatly reduce this summer. Outdoor treatment only. But watch the contract. Get it in writing. The cancel anytime option comes at a big $200 cancellation fee. And getting through to customer support that could understand an english conversation was difficult. read more

EcoShield Pest Solutions - Leroy was our Service Tech - Pest Control Near Me - Glen Allen, Virginia

This company sent a representative into our neighborhood ignoring all the "No Solicitation" signs posted throughout like they were optional reading material. He came to the door name dropping other residents he claimed he helped with outdoor pest control, but it was all lies. At least I gave him a bottle of water for staying committed to a low class company in the heat because walking door to door selling fairy tales has to be exhausting. Then he knocked on one of my neighbor's doors after 9pm like he was delivering bad news instead of pest control. That's a hard no. Have respect for the neighborhood and your employees. Judging by your previous reviews, it seems like you all are just looking for a dollar. read more

Terrible customer service! I called, got an appointment, and no one shows up. I call back and am told the appointment was cancelled because I would not be home that day even though I told the appointment setter the code to get in. No other contractor has ever required my presence so that is stupid. No one bothered to communicate after THEY cancelled the appointment. Unbeleivable. read more

BEWARE: EcoShield Pest Solution has been canvassing the Charlottesville area door to door selling, among other things, spraying for ants. It's a scam. Their "treatment" does not work. When you figure out you're been scammed and try to cancel, there's a $250 cancellation fee. There is currently a class action lawsuit against EcoShield Pest Solutions, The Shield Companies, Shield Co Management LLC, and others. Why: The lawsuit alleges that EcoShield charges customers an unauthorized cancellation fee when they try to end their subscription service, despite not being mentioned in the service agreement. Specifically: The plaintiff claims EcoShield disguises the fee as an "Annual Commitment Discount" on the initial service visit, which customers then have to repay if they cancel, even if they've been subscribed for at least a year. Hey - EcoShield, this lawsuit is currently in Colorado. It's coming to Virginia as well. Thanks to you. read more

Great technician, great company. Deshawn Lloyd with ECOSHIELD Richmond is professional, knowledgeable, thorough, and friendly. He asked if I had any pest concerns and we discussed European wasps. Deshawn explained the wasps' habitat and the season they show up. Saw two of these wasps this past summer and that is enough for me (3 times size of regular wasps.) Deshawn did a thorough spraying all around my house and checked for spider webs, wasp nests, and whatever may be hanging off my house. Very happy with ECOSHIELD Richmond's technician and service. read more

The technicians are all So nice who come out to the house. The billing department and the management are Horrible !!!!! They over charge and auto charge your credit card then tell You their accounting department can't issue a refund. They are rude and unprofessional On the phone and they re route you to be on hold on the phone to "customer service" Reps who know nothing Left a message a few times and they never called me back about my service. They are Impossible to deal with. This business appears to be a scam company locally Here in the Richmond , VA area. read more

I was trying to enjoy my Saturday when a door to door salesman came and harassed me for 30 minutes. I kept saying no and he kept dropping the price. Then again after I said no he tried to schedule a time to give me service. Then he says he will give me time to think about it and come back later.. No means no. Stop harassing people. It is a red flag and you seem very desperate for business. read more

This company scammed my elderly father in law out of hundreds of dollars for work that was never done. Tried to cancel and they refused to refund . Do not use them we now are hiring a lawyer to get his money back read more

when we signed up we weee told we could cancel before our first visit. we tried to cancel but no one would respond and then they came to the house. READ the fine print. you are locked in once you sign. We were told that they would spay 10' out from our house. they have been to our home now three times and we still have lots of spiders and other insect pets. Our deck is still covered in spiders We are not happy with the results. Buy your own bug spray it's cheaper any more effective! read more

BS operation and waste of money. they will lie while you in the face. customer assistance is purposefully inept. Stay away.

Not local. Puts you on hold over and over / transfer phone call, for simple request to cancel future service.

EXTREMELY aggressive door to door salesmen who lie saying they are "doing work for your neighbor", completely ignore posted "no soliciting" signs and they creepily take photos of your home without your consent. Their sales tactics are slimy and unethical and so is their service. If you answer the door to this company you will regret it. Our neighborhood collectively has decided to boycott after years of bad service and unethical door to door soliciting. We call police the minute we see them now because they blatantly ignore the no soliciting signs. UNETHICAL! read more

I arrived at home to a Salesman from your company at my porch steps. He had knocked on my door already, my wife peered through the window and ignored his request to engage. He waited anyway and stood still as I pulled up. When I got out of my truck I announced I was not interested in his services. He tried to introduce himself and got closer to me, and I again told him sternly to leave my property. He again stayed and tried to talk about his services, and I yelled for him to leave as I pointed to the street. He finally agreed, said, ok, and walked away. I firmly believe companies have the right to "follow the path of the mailman," to solicit services. However, when you have to ask like I did for you to leave, you are being very unprofessional. I will never recommend this service to anyone, and if you return to my property, you will be trespassing, and authorities will be called. read more

Just don't. I told them I was cancelling my contract at the end of term. They stated that they would keep it open just in case I wanted their service again. 2 months later they sent a service tech to my house, without my approval! I never saw the tech. Don't know if tech came or not BUT I still got a bill. After calling them many times protesting the bill, I was told the charge would stand. It is now in collections! AVOID read more

Beware - even if your contract term is for a year, they will renew it automatically with no path for you to opt-out. There is no option to cancel on the website, and you cannot delete your credit card. If you try to cancel via email, they force you to go through a customer service line where they aggressively attempt to convince you to continue their services. read more

I'm sold on EcoShield Pest solutions! Here are the before and after pictures. A family of European hornets dug a hole in the ground almost overnight among our trees in the backyard. I contacted Oren at EcoShield and asked if I should spray some pesticide in the hole. He told me not to do anything, and he would send a truck out. The truck came this morning. The European hornets are no more! Thanks, EcoShield! read more

See all

Do not use this company Ecoshield. After a hard sell by the door to door sales rep, it is almost impossible to cancel your account/contract. It is a neverending sales pitch to keep you enrolled with automatic credit card withdrawls of over $200. After asking them NOT to spray on a day when rain was forecast, they did it anyway. It is not the technicians fault, the first time I met the tech in the field he was professional and explained everything to me. The problem is with the management and online customer service. They don't listen, they refuse to take no for an answer and threaten they will penalize you with an extra payment if you cancel since they gave you such a great deal when you signed up. A horrible, disgusting company and business profile. Do not sign up! read more

They are absolutely despicable. Their sales people lie to you, and when you try to get out of the contract, they want to charge you $250-$500 to cancel. once I was able to get them to cancel my contract for $75, they harassed me multiple times a day via phone, messaging, and email. read more

When I signed my contract, I was sold on the fact that they knew the pest control business well and communication would be great. This was a two year contract. First year was great! The professionals visiting my house deserve a lot of credit for good service and great customer service! Last May (about 10 months in), I started having issues with rescheduling my appointments. Nobody would answer my calls, and Ecoshield contracted their customer service desk to a third party company. This company struggled to even make a simple change to reschedule my appointment leading to 2 visits to my house when I wasn't home. I raised these concerns to the local office and never heard much back. Fast forward to today. I used to get a week's notice before a visit, now I get 24 hour notices (they have a 24 hour cancellation policy that all changes have to be made 24 hours before your appointment). I get my notifications at 4:50, 10 minutes before their call center closes the lines... I'll ring for 10 minutes or so and nobody will answer. I've left about 5 voicemails in the past year, only one was returned. I raised these concerns and my intent to cancel with my local office and I was met with a "sorry to see you go, make sure to pay your $150 cancellation fee on the way out". I get that a contract was signed but this company will not strive to fix any of your problems. Even if you try to work with them, they will just collect their fee. Sad because I could've cancelled 12 months ago at the first sign of issues, but stayed on and paid about $750 more than I would've had to. I'd look elsewhere if you want to have communication with any sort of business representative. The closest you will get is an agent with a script. read more

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. Could not have had a WORSE experience. This is quite possibly the worst company I have ever had the displeasure of working with. They never answer the phone and when they do they put you on hold until you are so irritated that you hang up. I will also be reporting them to the Better Business Bureau because quite frankly I don't know what they do other than take my money and not answer the phone. If i could give negative stars i would because they don't even deserve one. Again, DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. read more

Signed contract yesterday, cancelled today. Why you ask? Because what the sales rep stated was not what was written in the contract. Rep implied the entire yard would be treated for insects. Not so, they only treat to about 10 feet. That tidbit came from customer service over the phone; the contract does not address at all. Sales rep stated that the mulch beds would be treated as we walked around the mulch beds (not all of which are adjacent to the house), not so, again, only treat about 10 feet from the house. Sales rep stated that all the critters listed would be included, i.e., the ones listed as "Add On Services". Hard to say yes or no, contract only addresses the guaranteed ones. I would assume the "Add On Services" are an additional charge. Sales rep stated that a termite inspector would be out in a few days and that I would get a free termite inspection annually. The contract mentions nothing about termite specific inspections. The customer service rep on the phone said checking for termites is included during their regular checks. By the way, contract does not address regular annual inspections. I guess maybe a tech is supposed to do that that when they are doing a scheduled treatment. Unless you are certified by the Virginia Pest Management Association, I'm not so sure I would trust just any techy telling me all is good regarding termites. I'm not an attorney, but in my opinion, the EcoShield contract is a bit on the loose side leaving too much up to interpretation. My advice, engage at your own risk. read more

This is easily the worst pest control company I have ever worked with. In fact, this is the worst company I have ever done business with. In the two years I have been in a contract with them they have stood me up at least 4 times on appointments, twice on calls and they keep scheduling me for times that I tell them I cannot have them come over and they still keep doing the same thing over and over like nothing ever happened. I hope people actually read these reviews and stay clear of this company because their customer service is so incredibly bad. They have no problem rescheduling me via voicemail yet I make it home to be there for the service and they stand me up again. This company stinks!!! read more

Company only did half of the service. Contacted them and told them I would pay for half of the service. They emailed me and charge me for full amount. I told them I had it on camera for only the front yard completed. Refused to work with me on the price, turned me to collections. Beware do not use this company use other pest service companies. read more

I was very disappointed with the result. The salesmen wasn't clear about what it covered as well as a $200 cancelation fee.

A solicitor of this company walked onto our property when we have a posted no soliciting sign. Persuaded my husband into signing on and we decided to cancel on the next day. We have been fighting this company for MONTHS. They do NOT follow their own contracts! Not to mention, their customer service is terrible. They cannot explain anything besides what you already know. When you ask for management, they get snotty and argue before sending you to a supervisor. Their prices are also outrageous! $170 every other month!! And that is apparently discounted down from over $300 every other month! This is a scam of a company if you ask me, and we highly recommend avoiding them. They do not follow laws and have pushy, deceitful tactics. Multiple neighbors have complained about this company and them being persistent and refusing to walk away. read more

I've been unsuccessfully attempting to cancel my service contract with this company after they left a mess of residue all over the exterior of my house a couple of days ago. However, it's impossible to actually reach anyone in person at the Richmond location. The call center that I was connected to yesterday was unable to reach the Richmond office, and when I followed up today, the call center told me they were unable to connect me to the "solutions center." Pretty sure this place is a huge scam. I've been left with a mess, and I cannot even reach anyone to get a refund or cancel my service. Worst customer service imaginable. read more

They lie about services completed to the point where we are working with the BBB because they are still trying to charge us for services they didn't do. Make sure to watch and download your security camera footage. Major headache. Scam company. read more

**Notice that most of the positive reviews are after the first service -- they have their sales people and techs pressure you to post a 5 star review!** For the love of God, do yourself a favor and avoid ever signing a contract with this company. We were talked into what seemed like a great deal with no strings attached by a sales guy and were reassured by our guaranteed legal right to cancel with no penalty within 3 days. After getting service the next day from two guys who didn't really know what they were doing, we cancelled...and for the next three months proceeded to get hounded by EcoShield about an outstanding charge because they insisted they never received our cancellation email. I sent them proof of the email (as requested) three separate times, was told it would be reviewed, and then it'd be crickets until the billing department called me again. They finally "waived" the charge because I asked for a way to actually follow up on the proof I was sending and they couldn't do that. Thank goodness we cancelled the card we had on file because they would have automatically charged us, and I can't imagine what a refund process would look like. You will never speak with the nice sales person again after signing the contract and the customer support and billing teams are clearly disconnected and NOT local to Richmond. But each of them WILL pressure you to post a 5 star review, hence their good Google rating. Even if you do everything right in regards to your contract, you'll have a terrible time. Run, run, run from EcoShield. read more

Worst service. The service technician is a perfect example of a lazy, unfriendly person you never want to meet.

This is a scam. Ricky, the salesman who came to my door, lied. He told me I would be charged a quarterly fee and all sorts of initial fees were waved because of the neighborhood deal and that my next payment would be in December. I was charged 2 months in a row. He said something about an annual contract, and I told him I wouldn't be there for a year; he said it was fine; I didn't really have to keep the service for a year... to just let them know when I was moving. I was also told mice were included, but I see now in the contract that they are not. I would never have signed up for this service if I had known the truth about this awful company. read more

I've been with Ecoshield for about a yr now and i come on here and see a lot of bad reviews my services have been great I've never had any bad to say about my experiences read more

I really wouldn't give it a 1 star but I have to get one here to tell my story..A young (early 20s) comes to the door says his spill about treatment. Husband agrees because they say it's pet safe.

Starts wobbling walking in circles..long story short vet said she ingested some yard poison that has attacked her nervous system and she won't make it. I lost my dog. This is not pet friendly.. they lied read more
