I'm not really much of a hater, in the right circumstances I mostly go-along get-along. But do me no wrong because I can be world-class in the hate department, which brings me to my feelings about insects. Not butterflies and other vegetarians, just the ones that bite, sting or dine on your bodily fluids. Among these parasitic carnivores few are as detestable as fleas. It's something of a toss-up though, in the light heavyweight league which includes mosquitoes ticks chiggers bedbugs lice etc. Tiny, irritating, hard to be rid of once they've moved in. There is a true heavyweight insect division, however, creatures far worse. One so vile I hate to admit having ever contracted them, and more than once. I wonder if you've made the acquaintance yourself of the most terrible, miserable insect of them all... the scabies mite. You get these, quite frankly, by sleeping around however the circumstance with strange and perhaps only vaguely known persons. There, I've said it so now you know, or you already knew from personal experience. But enough of this ramble and on to why I advise you to contact Rich Love if you have an insect problem outside your home. Rich does a lot of work on large properties and farms, but certainly will take care of smaller sites as well. My own yard isn't large, but I had a bigtime invasion of fleas. They arrived on the raccoon that I have kindly allowed to live under my back deck during May/June to raise her brood. But these fleas got desperate when their host, "my" raccoon, left. After that, they somehow creeped into my house, likely crawling through the small airgap under my backdoor. I have dealt with fleas inside, but not when they keep reappearing. I quickly realized the damned things were all over my property and wanted me for their new food supply. This meant no more mr niceguy, time to get professional help. I like people who know agriculture, they're used to dealing with a variety of issues that need to be addressed asap before they get out of control. Rich Love is definitely qualified to deal with insect invasions whether they're in your yard, small orchard or vineyard. He came the morning after I called him, examined the problem with a professional eye, and within half an hour had done the work at a very reasonable rate. My flea problem is now history. Thanks, Rich. read more

Found a massive yellow jacket nest yesterday, gave them a call, and Rich took care of it this morning. Very quick and easy. He's is a SUPER nice guy, was happy to have me pepper him with questions, and even told me how to do some things myself to save money. Highly recommended! read more

We have used Love's several times over the last few years to help control mosquitoes around our place. Every time we are able to book a visit within a few days. Very pleasant and conscientious, and very reasonable rates. Thank you for keeping our summers bug bite free! read more

Amazing company! Does the job, is very thorough, and is very kind. All around great! Called on a Wednesday and came on Friday. The price is worth it if you are afraid of the creepy crawlies ( which I am). Actually, the price is better than what other companies offer! read more

We had a horrible tick problem in our forested yard. Love's made it possible for us to let the pets out and enjoy the yard!

Happy to add another 5-star review here - Rich definitely earns & deserves every star. Was able to fit us into his busy schedule and took the time to assess our property & explain the treatment (for us, ticks/fleas/ants). Thank you, Rich!!!! read more

They did a great job and avoided edible plants along the side of the house. Once those were harvested, Dominic came back and did another treatment. Can't say enough about his professionalism and reliability! read more

We didn't actually have Love's come out to our house, because Richard advised us how to handle the problem (a small wasp nest) ourselves. In response to my request for an estimate, he emailed almost immediately and wrote that it was not worth our while to pay for removal. (I had sent a photo.) I give Richard five stars for promptness, for integrity, and for good advice. read more

If could give 10 stars I would! We've had an ongoIng spider problem that has left us all terrified of the creepy crawlies. Love's had been able to rid the house from these nasty little creatures. Excellent customer service and just genuinely a nice guy. read more

Had a really great experience with Love's Pest Control. We had a bee's nest in the ground and they took complete care of it in a day. Mailed me a bill, no fuss, no mess. Thanks for the great service. read more

I had a GREAT experience with Love's Pest Control. I discovered a large hornet nest in my yard. Rick came to help within a few hours, despite having other plans with his family. What a nice guy. He wanted to make sure that my family didn't get stung. Great service!!! read more

Rich did a fantastic job! We came home one evening to find bees swarming our grill. I called Rich and he showed up within 45 minutes, assessed the situation, and sprayed the bees. We've been bee-free since! He did a great job and was very friendly. read more

My husband Guido has been doing tree work for 55 years and our company has one of the most exclusive client lists in Marin County. We have recently brought on Love's Pest Control for the spraying needs of our clients. Due to climate change, the diseases are rampant and we needed someone who is knowledgeable and aggressive in treating the trees and plants. Rich is more interested in quality than quantity and our clients have all been extremely pleased with his services. All agree that he is an honest and very pleasant person as well. read more

Scheduled an appointment with another local pest control company, but they couldn't come out for a week. We'd just noticed some carpenter bees boring new holes into the eaves, and a week seemed like too far out. I called Rich and he responded within a half hour. Not only could he come within a few days, he called the very next day and said he had an open slot and could come within the hour. Perfect. Hoping the spray treatment does the trick, and will know soon enough. But I didn't want to wait to post this review. We just like the guy - friendly, honest, and he seems to really know his stuff. Follow-up: The spray treatment worked like a charm - the existing bees were eradicated, and subsequent visitors either backed off or were exterminated as well. Rich's follow up was fantastic. He came back and sprayed around the house, just in case, and brought with him a wasp trap as well as a bat house that he had built. Amazing service. read more

I had a small wasp nest (3" by 3") in our atrium. I was freaked out and called a number of Pest Control places for quotes. Rich picked up on my first call and he instructed me how to remove the nest myself. I usually call my husband to kill spiders in our house, let alone try and take out a wasp nest on my own. My husband's working crazy hours now and wasn't going to be able to get to it anytime soon so with one more call to Rich, I felt confident to take on the wasps myself... And they're gone! :D For future pest problems, I'll be using Love's Pest Control! read more
