I've been using Modern Pest Control since the latter part of July, 2025, and the experience has been consistently disappointing. The technician assigned to my home, August, has come out multiple times to address ongoing sugar ant issues and to check for possible rodent activity. Despite repeated visits, nothing has improved. Each visit lasts about five minutes. There's no visible inspection, no explanation of what's being done, and no meaningful follow‑through. For the sugar ants specifically, I was told they would "die off in a few days," yet the ants continue to flourish in the bathroom and bedroom. After four months of monthly service, I would expect at least some progress, but the infestation is unchanged. I also requested an attic inspection to check for signs of rodents, and was told it wasn't necessary. Every reputable pest‑control source I've checked says attic inspections are standard practice, so this refusal was concerning. Communication has also declined. The first couple of times I reached out about the ant problem, the company responded quickly -- but the treatments weren't effective. The most recent time I texted them, I received no response at all. I hope Sean, the owner, takes this feedback seriously. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Modern Pest Control. read more

The owner personally called and addressed all my questions about the wasp problem. He was very knowledgeable and helped us understand the behavior of the specific type of wasp in spring so we could make the best decision. Service was prompt and included a report and photos of the work. They also allow 30 days to pay the invoice. Excellent experience working with Modern Pest Control and owner Sean. Will use them for all of our pest control problems now. read more

After moving to Graham, with a farm on one side of our property and a field/green belt on the other... we one day discovered that we had field mice gaining access to our garage. After a ton of research I decided to give Modern Pest Control a call and I spoke to Sean for about 15 minutes about our issue. He assured me that they could handle our situation no problem and was quick to get me on the schedule. Pricing initially seemed high but for the level of service and the quality of work it's worth every flipping penny. Technician August came out to assess the property and did a stellar job identifying where they were gaining access. He put down some bait traps all while explaining what and why he was doing what he was doing. Over the next 30 days these mice were chowing down on the bait and they slowly stopped appearing. After the 30 days, Technician Brenden came out to assess and repair the access point where they had initially been coming into the garage. He also removed some mice carcasses from around the property. Both young men were professional, kind, helpful, and full of interesting knowledge about pests. All in all... I'm a happy customer with no mice =D I would use this service time and time again! read more

We just realized the hard way that my husband is allergic to bees/wasps, and had to take and impromptu trip to the ER. That being said, we were looking for immediate pest control. After much research, I found Modern pest control and contacted them for a quote. Sean contacted me within 5 minutes of my leaving a message and was even able to give me a quote over the phone. It was much more affordable than any other quote we received, and they even give a military discount of 20%. Braiden was out at our property to spray within two hours and was super informative and professional. So, within a 3hr time span we had a quote and service at our property. Amazing. read more

Discovered multiple active bees' nests on house. Located this family owned and highly rated pest control company. Called and left a voice message and quickly got a return call from the owner, Sean. Sean was very knowledgeable and thorough. Received same date service. Braiden showed up later that evening and quickly took care of business. Happy to say that bees are gone and can resume use of the outdoor patio. Highly recommend without any hesitation. Cost was very reasonable. Thank you, Modern Pest Control!! read more

Wasps had taken over the yard! I am usually DILIGENT in keeping them at bay & catching the nests when they are small as I am allergic & we are BOTH disabled. Unfortunately I fell behind. All of a sudden there are wasps nest EVERYWHERE! Even in the cat hangout! Can't do ANYTHING in the yard without getting swarmed or DIVEBOMED! Over 30 different nests & several types of wasps. Even a LARGE one over my back DOOR! Looked for pest control who could come immediately since the fam & babies were coming for the game Saturday @4pm. After several high quotes & a lot of frustration, I called modern pest control. Spoke with sean who was remarkably attentive,cordial & ready to help! Scheduled the appointment between 2-3 with a guy august. Got a prompt text to let me know august was on his way @2:14. This man took his time walking with me through the entire 1/2 acre knocked down & sprayed every single nest while identifying & informing me of each species & their habits, the safety of the chemicals they used, future prevention, etc. was even informative on OTHER topics! A very precise, timely, manner full, attentive, prompt, efficient & thorough young man to say the LEAST. He even thanked ME for walking him through every area TOGETHER to treat it instead of just pointing them out & him having to REMEMBER all of them. I recommend u do a walkthrough & Take NOTES if u have more than one nest of ANYTHING. He sprayed the upper & lower part of 6 sheds, the house, the roof & every single nest. After informing us of the total, informing us on how long the chemicals last/take to work etc... ON ALL BUGS ANNNND the 45 day warranty I asked if I could hug him! woke up this morning & walked the yard, not even a FLY on the porches, so far so GOOD! Only ONE NEST with activity in the retaining wall, which I am told to call in a few days if still active ( give the stuff time to work). Will DEFINITELY RECOMMEND & REFER! Thank you august & sean for giving us the yard back & an AWESOME get together! Ps. - sean Congrats on your future mini me! read more

UPDATE: We had to call for wasps again, Braiden was as usual very educative, friendly, accommodating & professional, as well as thorough. When I found a new ground wasp nest a few days later, he was right back out to spray. I love this company! Have recommended them to everyone I know. The fact that we have pets & the chemicals used are pet/human safe is an absolute BONUS! read more

Seth was amazing, knowledgeable, fast to respond. Hopefully we won't have to see him again, but if we have more Yellowjackets I will absolutely be calling him. read more

Called Modern Pest Control in the morning and spoke with Sean who answered many questions over the phone before before I scheduled an appointment. Braiden showed up the same afternoon to take care of my insect problem. Was very thorough, friendly and professional. Explained everything he was doing, why and what to expect. Would not hesitate to recommend to any and all. read more

Top notch! Excellent customer service, honest and prompt. Highly recommend this company and will use for all of my future pest control needs! read more

Had a horrible rat problem inside out crawl space called a national brand and they sent out a salesperson that didn't work for me especially his best deal of $4950 to start along with a year contract. The next local company wasn't off with another big start up cost and year contract! Finally had a friend refer Sean with Modern Pest Control and I gave him a call. He quoted me a price over the phone then met with me in person and explained the entire process. He even went into the crawl space and took pictures so I could see what he was talking about. Top notch service for a fraction of what others wanted to charge me. Very low pressure but he gave me lots of pay as we go options to keep the rats and other pest out of my house. Highly recommend his company to anyone I hear having a rodent or pest problem. read more

We just moved into our new apartment. We went to do laundry. Found a massive Python snake in our washer that the previous owners had left there. Modern Pest Control did a great job handling the situation and helping remove the snake safely from the premises without harming the snake. Hopefully the previous owners gets in trouble for this situation we got put into. read more

The Owner Sean came out and sprayed for ants and we have yet to see one since! He also used kid and pet friendly (we have a 6 & 3 year old plus 2 cats and a dog) stuff. His knowledge of pest and plants is amazing. You can tell he cares about what he does by how intense he is when looking over your home for all the problem spots with pest. I have already referred him to all my friends who were having issues with pests and he has pleased them all!! He doesn't try to up sell or any of that non sense. If I bet Sean's middle name is Integrity because you can trust what he tells you!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to get rid of pest in your home!!!! I hope i don't need to call him again but if i need help with pest, Modern Pest Control is the only answer! read more

These people are the best. I have had 3 other pest control services and though they all did a decent job at keeping the critters out- none of them can compare to Modern Pest Control. They just know what they are doing, and truly care about your home. The customer service amazing... Let me repeat: THE CUSTOMER SERVICE IS AMAZING. 5 stars all the way. read more

After getting the bad news that we had a pest problem, we made some calls to get a good estimate. One guy wanted $3000. for the job that we needed done- however, deceptively- and not for work we actually needed. Thankfully we found Sean with Modern Pest Control- these guys are about common sense and a trustworthy, down to earth approach with their customers, and estimate. They did an awesome job for our issues, promptly and professionally, for under $400. We would definitely recommend Modern Pest Control to all of our neighbors and friends. read more

I called a few pest control companies in Pierce County when I had a home I owned in Tacoma that had a rodent problem. With the pests coming from a nearby lot full of blackberry bushes (apparently one of the best breeding grounds for rats), the home had dozens of rodents making unwelcome visits. Of all the companies I called, I was most impressed with Modern Pest Control. Sean was very friendly and quote fair prices for his services. Overall, Sean came out several times to diagnose the issues and setup / re-bait stations. Quickly, the rodent issue came under control and got wiped out. Sean was always on-time, communicated well, and friendly. This makes it easy and a pleasure to do business with him and his company. I highly recommend anyone looking to fix a pest problem to give him a call! read more

I highly recommend Modern Pest Control. I'm new to the Pacific Northwest & have learned more than I care to know about spiders & seed bugs & mosquitos! Sean responded quickly to my call & set my appointment for the very next morning. Noah came out to do my service. He was timely, professional, knowledgeable & very nice. He finished quickly and provided all the information I needed for follow up. Thank you for your good, reasonably priced service!! read more

This company was good about the first installation at my house but did not get that issue handled. I have called several times to get the issue taken care of the owner keeps reassuring me that his workers will be out to the house to fix it. On 2 different occasions the owner has told me his workers will be at the house and then I have waited for them and they have no called no showed twice! Then on the third go around somebody finally shows up and they explained to me what they were going to do AND NONE OF WHAT THEY SAID THEY WERE GOING TO DO WAS DONE! I had a different company come out and check and they noticed that the boxes were not even touched! Matter of fact there was bushes grown over the actual boxes! Since I noticed that nothing was done I have made several calls to the owner and left several messages he has yet to return anything! Also when I first hired this company I had told him there was issues with other companies doing the same thing to me, charging me for work that's not been done! He reassured me he was a family man a father to five children and one on the way and that him and his business was an honest company! All this company did was take my money and waste my time! I have now moved on to a different company who has done everything I asked before I even paid them! I also went to add in that my requests were very small that I needed his company to do. Put up traps and respray around my house was the only thing he had to do! This company has wasted my time and my money! I would not recommend this to anyone except the Better Business Bureau read more

Very impressed with the service here. I live in the country with farm animals all around and I love watching my birds. Unfortunately, this means rodent heaven. Sean immediately won me over after the first phone call. He was very kind and thorough. He took the time to listen to me and explain everything in as much detail as I needed. We scheduled an initial appointment for the next day which is when Angel came out and also did a great job. Within about 24 hours we're set up and have a plan in place. I'm feeling very confident in their work and costumer service. read more

UPDATE: Sorry I can no longer recommend Modern Pest Control. Service did not meet our basic reasonable expectations. When we complained, the owner responded quickly and did all he could to resolve the issue. We cancelled the service. read more

I had modern pest control spray my house and basement after I noticed a ton of giant wood spiders. Their tech, Angel, was awesome and super sweet with my dog (an extra bonus). They were able to come out same day and were SO great to work with, including simple, affordable, no pressure to sign a contract pricing. I would definitely recommend them in the future! A bonus is that their pesticides are safe for kids and pets, I'll be using them again in the future. read more

Sean came out last year and spray for sugar ants in my duplex. The problem was solved immediately. Sean was very knowledgeable and willing to share his knowledge with myself then and with my tenant's now. He told us what to look for and what time of year would be a problem for us with the ants. He was totally right, it's Spring and they're back. He responded just as quickly and was out to treat the place in less than a business day. read more

I can't comment on their work, because nobody showed up. It took me two phone calls and an email to get a hold of someone to make an appointment. They did offer to come out next day, but since it took 2 days to get a hold of someone I needed to make an appointment for the next week on my day off. They set a 2 hour appointment window, so I waited and no one called or showed up. I never called to find out why, I'll just go with someone else. No need to waste any more of my time. read more

I was always home when my house was serviced and the young kid wasn't there more than five minutes. Said he checked traps under house and in separate garage but when he left I found two dead mice in traps. I left a complaint and never heard back. read more

After leaving some reviews the owner replied back the next day saying he woke up to notifications of reviews I left . Hmmm, is that the only reason why you called back? He said he scheduled on the wrong day and apologized. What I don't get is why he never called me back to let me know this the day I called!? I left the message at 2:56pm. That means he had all day and evening to get back to me. Well, I contacted a few other companies and they alerted me that it was weird that Modern Pest put bait boxes in my house . As they are poison and we have two large dogs and a cat. (Mind you the cat brought one of the boxes out and was playing with it ) I had another company come out . They went down in the crawl space, placed traps, saw the entry point where the mice were coming up from which was behind the dishwasher like I had told Tyler from modern pest. Noticed a hole that was running from behind the sink to the crawl space. He then took care of the entry point behind the dishwasher, went outside and looked for entry points and found another possible spot and plugged that up , AND sprayed for pests all for the same price Modern charged me! However all I got from Modern was some chit chat, two mice bait boxes, and three bait boxes in the side . I just don't understand why they thought it was not necessary to check my crawl space after I specifically said that's where I believe they are coming from?! read more

We recently bought a house that had some pest issues during escrow. Noah came out and did an inspection to make sure everything was still clear. We couldn't be more pleased with our service. He was prompt, knowledgeable and very friendly. Thanks so much for your great service. read more

Recently encountered a spider problem in my house and called Modern Pest Control to get it taken care of. Tyler showed up within hours and provided fast and professional service. The prices were great and I definitely plan to utilize Modern Pest Control in the future if I need them. Would highly recommend this company to any one in need of Pest Control solutions. read more

My husband and I just bought a house and right when we moved in we discovered a large bald faced hornets nest in a tree above our front door. The hornets would swarm around our door so we had to go in the back entrance. I contacted Modern Pest Control and Shawn came out that day. He sprayed and our problem was fixed. Several weeks later we were in need of his services again because of spiders and a couple of moles that were tearing up our new landscaping. Shawn came out again to take care of the problems and now we don't have to share our house with a bunch of spiders and I don't have to wake up every morning to a new hole in my yard. I am very impressed with Modern Pest Controls professionalism, price and knowledge. I am already referring my friends to them. Thank you Modern Pest Control! read more

After hearing something in my attic I called about 7 pest companies that told me they couldn't have anyone out until tomorrow. I then tried modern Pest Control and they sent someone out within an hour!!!! Tyler came and was polite and looked in my attic and assured me there was no droppings, no nesting, no signs of any animals. He explained a few reasons why I may have heard the noises and told me to call back in 2 weeks to have someone check again just in case. He then told me there was no charge and asked if there was anything else he could check to insure I felt comfortable there wasn't something living with me! HIGHLY recommend them, thank you again for coming out! read more

Sean was prompt and extremely knowledgeable. We had a bird get stuck in our microwave vent. He made himself available to help even though he had a full day. Hard to come by honesty and kindness like that when looking for a service of sorts. I would definitely recommend Modern Pest Control to anyone I know. read more

Called and spoke to Sean about a horrible sugar ant problem in my newly purchased home. He seemed very knowledgeable on everything I had asked about and was out the next day to treat my house! Felt confident he did everything he could to fix my problem. I was told for many cases the problem was taken care of almost right away but there was a chance we might need to have them come out and spray again if we still see any ants after two weeks. After the first couple days I saw almost no ants but after about a week I felt like they were starting to become more present. I texted Sean and immediately got a response and they were out the same day to respray our ants! Angel came out this time and very thoroughly went over everything again. He was very friendly, quick, and also very knowledgeable. Will definitely be using Modern Pest control for any and all pest control needs we have. Could not be more happy with their service! read more

Had a flea problem in my rental. Sean was professional, knowledgable, and honest. I truly appreciate that he did not try to up sell his services as many other pest control providers do. His services were affordable and the problem was taken care of right away. I will definitely call Modern Pest Control again for any (heaven forbid) future pest issues. read more

Modern Pest Control is a very great business. They came one day after a called. They also talked to me about what the problem was and helped me understand what they where going to do to help. I had rats and I was very terrified and scared, but they where very understanding of how I was feeling. They treat there costumers like they are friends or family. I highly recommend them. If I ever have a pest problem again I will definitely call them. read more
