I was fighting the groundhogs to a standstill; I would use a repellent recommended by Bergen County Animal Control in the holes, and they would go away, until more came. Well, finally, they were doing damage to my house, and I had to up the game. On a friend's recommendation, I called Kevin at Knock'em Dead. And the friend recommended right. He was friendly, informative, threw in a free inspection to see if they had done any serious damage, gave good advice, and the fees he charged matched what I thought would be reasonable fees (essentially, just low enough to make it worth my while to hire him rather than try to do it myself). They came promptly to get the trapped animals, and I haven't seen any sign of groundhogs since. As a bonus, they're experienced animal handlers, which means that if you get an unexpected animal (like, say, a skunk) in your trap, you have someone who can safely let them out. Strongly recommended! read more

He makes empty promises and does not deliver. I was told that if we still had a mice problem after his treatment, he would come back. His reply when I called was 'I'm busy,' and hung up. He is also NOT a knowledgeable exterminator, he kept insisting mice do not have bones and that's why they can squeeze into tight spots...was very odd read more

Been a customer almost two years now, on the regular scheduled treatment program. Company returned when we mentioned seeing bugs outside on patio (covered; no extra fee). We have been highly satisfied in our new home without insects. In the country we have plenty big bugs wanting inside! read more

I have been using Knock 'em Dead Pest Control for many years now. As a homeowner issues always seem to spring up, be it moles, mice in the garage/attic, etc. I truly do not know what I would do without Kevin! He is the absolute best! Always returns calls promptly, shows up as promised and is totally fair in his billing! I simply do not understand these bad reviews! Hard to believe that we are talking about the same company/business owner! I would give Kevin 10 stars if I could! read more

We had a mouse problem and I tried everything. Knock'em Dead came out and we were mouse free from that day on. They have the magic touch and get straight to the point. They are professional, on time, affordable and above all EFFECTIVE! I recommend them to everyone! read more

I had a horrible mosquito issue that was effecting my dogs! I called Kevin and his team and they had someone to me SAME DAY!!!! I truly couldn't have asked for better service, and those skeeters where gone! read more

Don't use this company because they will show up and not follow up if the the issue is not resolved on the first try. Kevin seemed like a pro at first... until he got paid. He showed up in good time and was able to get the raccoons out of my house by creating a one way exit and then closing it up. About an hours work. This seems like a tactic they use because Raccoons often return if they are not removed from the area. If it was beyond a year, I bet he would show up for more money! That said, the raccoons returned after 5 months and even though they guarantee their work for one year, Kevin has not answered or returned my calls ever since. He is obviously screening calls and now the smell is toxic in my house and I have 3 children living here. This is now a liability because he is putting my family in danger. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't even have insurance since this is obviously a scam artist company. He took the money and ran! It's unbelievable that a company like this can get away with taking customers money and not do their job and honoring the contract that they sign. Now there is even more damage that's being caused to my home because of their incompetence and lack of response for weeks. Welcome to the 21st century Kevin from "Don't Knock em Dead and Charge Anyway" where people can talk freely about the fact that you are scamming families out of their hard earned money and not delivering on your contract. More less-than-stellar reviews from my family will be forthcoming so we can hopefully reduce the amount of victims you lay in your wake with your unprofessionalism. Job NOT well done! DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY read more

These guys are fantastic! They fixed our problem the first time. We kept hearing crickets in our basement and kept killing them ourselves until we finally realized we need help from a professional. I was surprised by how thorough they were they were in crawl spaces, around the exterior of the house, the interior and we haven't had a problem in over a year! I will be calling them again because we found some little ants by a couple of windows and now that we found a reliable company we will definitely use them again. They are very affordable, friendly, thorough and professional. read more

This business was recommended to me by a friend, if you want to call it a business. It's a guy by the name of Kevin, he works out of his house address. I don't have a problem with the fact that he's working out of his house and being that I'm blind and I have special needs I have worked out of my home in the past. There was a non-stop scratching in my ceiling, I didn't know if it was a racoon or squirrells. This person assured me it was a racoon, he said he caught one in a trap when I wasn't home one day but video surveillance showed that he was never there at the time that he said and he didn't catch a racoon. Ten days later his trap finally caught a squirrel, he took the squirrel and the trap and he said he would be back the next day which I found it odd because wouldnt you have money for another trap if you were running a legitamate business? When I finally told him that obviously there were a few more squirrells inside my house, he kept telling me he was gonna come back tomorrow with the trap. He gave me some excuse that he was working down in South Jersey but a friend that lives 2 houses down from him told me that he saw him coming in and out from his residence. This person is not only a despicable human being, but he's trying to take advantage of a situation because he thought I was blind. He must've thought that I was stupid. I have the receipt that he gave me which says that I paid him for the service that he was supposed to perform. He gave me a years guarranty which is a big joke and when we finally had words, he told me to sue him and he's not coming back. Now obviously you know that he doesnt even deserve 1 star. I cant believe a person like that is in buisness and being that he has one other review besides mine, it was obviously written by a relative and to make matters worse, after I confronted my friend and I told him the situation, he told me that the reason why he recommended him is because he gave him $50 for other jobs that he's gotten him. I dont have a problem with the $50 referrall service, but I don't like being robbed. With a problem with a jerk like this, in the next month or two he'll have a different business with a different phone number and a different cell phone number and read to screw some other hard working person. read more

Lodi and surrounding areas beware. Knock em Dead pest control should be more like Keep Everything Alive and Let Them Multiply. It's a one man operation, he parks his truck in front of his home residence, 527 Farnham ave. When I had a dispute with this idiot, I called the town and he's not registered as a business and they proceeded to tell me that he still is able to have a phone line registered at his home address as a business listing. I then proceeded to tell them that he shouldn't have his business truck in front of his home promoting a phony business. I then contacted the state and I found out he doesn't even have his exterminators license. So if you give this guy even a hundred dollars you might as well throw it in the garbage because this guy has no clue on how to set up traps or kill rodents. read more
