I am so pleased with the service! I called Casey to help get rid of ants in my new construction home. We were absolutely swimming in ants and we tried a lot of DIY methods with no success. That's when I decided I needed a professional. Of course, during my search, the sponsored large companies popped up, but I've been burned by places like that before, so I found Okami Pest Control. He has all amazing reviews, and now I know that they are well deserved! He was extremely professional, explained to me what he was doing, and the ants were gone by the next day. He is extremely knowledgeable about what he does. He truly cared about the service he was providing, which can be hard to find these days! The value was incredible! Hire him, you will not be disappointed. read more

We had some kind of destructive creature turning up mounds of dirt all over our lawn and garden until I got a strong recommendation from a friend to call Casey at Okami Pest Control. He responded immediately and even came to the house the same day. He determined pretty much instantly that we had an industrious mole on our hands and knew exactly where his runs (tunnels) were and where to set the traps. He came by to check the traps a few days later and sure enough - got 'em! No more damage to the garden. I strongly recommend Casey - he knows exactly what he's doing. He's also super nice and very responsive. Just a pro. read more

Casey is like an ant whisperer, or the real antman. Our yearly summertime ant problems have finally been solved a few years back when I first gave Okami pest control a try, and we've relied on Casey's expertise since then. No harsh-smelling chemicals, and he doesn't even have to come inside the house, just the outside perimeter. He's amazing! read more

Ok, if you are reading a pest control review, you probably are not having a great time and looking for someone to just take care of a big problem. You found him! Casey was awesome!! We recently moved into a rental house, guess what, we had a mouse. A very active mouse, gross! Casey was just great. He gave us a quote and when he went beyond expected service refused any extra money. Casey was very professional, showed up when promised and was great to have! He really did a detailed job and came back several times to check traps and see if he completed the job. Casey recently started his business. You can tell he takes great pride in his work and will keep at it until he gets it done. No big company, "not my problem" type attitude here! I would absolutely use Casey again and would highly recommend him! Competitive prices and fabulous service, give him a try and you will be happy you did! read more

We discovered a new insect infestation in our house on the weekend. I sent a Yelp request late on a Saturday and Casey reached out immediately - we chatted on the phone and he gave me initial advice and reviewed some pictures I took. He recommended we try some simple things first and if they didn't work then use his services. He would not accept any payment for the phone consultation. Great personal service and we will definitely be calling him should our pest problem persist! Thank you Casey! read more

I called Casey when I found mice in the kitchen and had a sworm of ants in the bathroom. He was great. He looked all over and decided what to do with the ants and the mice. Then he proceeded to do what was necessary. He came back several times - first to dispose of the mice caught in the traps and to check the ants. I haven't seen a ant or a mouse since he came. I'm very pleased and will call him again if necessary. read more

My dad's house in El Cerrito was persistently attacked by ants for years and years as all over the Bay Area, and we thought it was simply a lost cause since our theory was that the area was just made up of a bunch of ant hills. But Casey proved that theory wrong and we have not seen a single ant in several months now. He was responsive, kind, and very reasonable price-wise. Plus his company name is perfect and well-fitting (means "wolf" in Japanese, hehe) and we are more than happy to support small, local Asian-American businesses . We are definitely going to reach out to Casey again for the gopher issue we also face, which is less of a concern at the moment since it was dealt with once already in the past by a different company. read more

If you want to solve your ant problem permanently without paying for expensive toxic monthly sprays, hire Casey! Casey is amazing. He solved my ant problem in one day, and called afterwards to followup, and came unprompted for an in person followup to make sure it was totally resolved. It's been two months since I hired him and the ant problem is completely gone. We had a sudden surge of ants after not having an ant problem for years. We tried all sorts of bait and tried to clean better, to no avail. This problem grew for a few months until I started calling exterminators. All the other companies wanted to sell me on expensively recurring solutions that involved spraying. They also wanted to use pretty toxic materials that meant that my family would have to be out of the house for hours, and I'd have to figure out how to keep my infant child from touching the base boards. Most importantly, the other companies did not promise to remove the ants permanently. (Why would they? They only kept making money if the ants kept coming back!) Casey was the only one who was different. He came and diagnosed the problem, tracked where the ants were coming upstairs from, found where the ants lived in the bushes in front of our garaged, and applied some targeted bait. He showed us where the ants were moving, taught us about their habits, taught us how to apply the bait, and what brand of (cheap) bait we could use ourselves. We saw immediate effect the next day, with gradual ongoing improvement. He called me after a few days, asked about progress, and suggested some followup actions. He waited another few days, and stopped by unprompted to check in. He truly cared about doing right by us. I'm super happy with paying him for his expertise. read more

Casey did a great job solving our gopher problem! After months of trying to DIY a solution and seeing tons of lawn and garden damage, we decided it was time for a pro. Casey was super responsive and timely with his visits. In a few days, the problems were solved and at a great value. We will be calling Casey if we ever have a future need, and highly recommend him! read more

Had a gopher problem in our backyard. Been trying to get rid of it myself over the last couple months to no avail and came across Casey at Okami via the NextDoor app. Glad I reached out! He came out set some traps and was even kind enough to do some education. Set traps and came back the next day and got em! Hopefully it's the only one, but he has a great policy on re-treatment in 30 days if I see new activity. Super nice guy and would definitely recommend to anyone needing some help with gophers. read more

Highly recommend Casey - super reliable, on time, great guidance on root cause of my ant issues - meticulous investigation. He discovered the source was my neighbors tree with branches that had overgrown the fence and were laying agains the side of my building. Casey's game plan bascially eradicated the problem within 24 hours I saw a dramatic improvement. Casey's follow-up is superb - he called me 48 hours later to check in - then even stopped by and chopped a few of the branches away FOC! Easy to use, fair price, and very effective! read more

Updating my review for Casey. He is the absolute best at what he does. The rats, ants, and spiders have completely disappeared from my home and have showed no signs of returning. If you are in the Bay Area, Casey should be your 1st call! read more

Casey came by our house for same day service to remove a dead pest. He was extremely professional, answered all my questions, and most importantly removed the pest from my crawl space in just a few minutes. Anytime I have a future issue I would not hesitate to call him back. read more

We just had our lawn put in in September and not long after we noticed a ditch... And then holes... Rodents! I found Casey on Yelp and I could tell by his website that he just really likes what he does. Also, the name of his business obviously (?) reminded me of the videogame of the same name, so that helped too. I called, he picked up, and he came by a few days later. Casey diagnosed that it was gophers, explained his process for getting rid of them, and what we might expect in the future. So not only was he transparent, he was educational too. He is very reasonable and upfront with the cost of his work. It's been a few weeks now and no new holes! I am looking for new pests for him to help me with me next. Thank you again, Casey! read more

I called Casey from Okami pest control because I have been struggling with Argentinian ants in my home for quite some time. I have tried everything!! Casey was very flexible about making an appointment and gave me a price before arriving. He is very friendly, knowledgable and takes pride in his work. I loved watching him find the hidden pest locations. He put bait in hidden corners all over my home and garden. He did not miss a spot, as he was working for over 2 hours. His price was very reasonable. 3 days later there is not an ant in sight. He is a real pleasure to work with and I would not hesitate to call him again. read more

Had Casey out again to get a gopher, which he was successful at. Casey is a Zen master at what he does. He is also a really pleasant person. As always, I highly recommend him. read more

Very knowledgeable and reasonably priced. He eliminated several wasp nests for me that were deep in a stone wall. His conventional pesticides didn't work, so he tried several until he found the one that would work. He came back several time to make sure that the nests were rendered inactive. Overall very conscientious. And in the end he determined that the real problem was a big nest in a neighbor's yard that was creating satellite nests around the neighborhood. read more

Excellent communication, very thoughtful and great at explaining what's happening. He caught the mole, too!

Casey is great! He helped me catch two rats and sealed off a lot cracks and holes in and around my house. Very professional, excellent communication, and charges a fair price. read more

Great service and reasonably priced. I really appreciated all of the information about how and why he would choose the specific pest treatments. I also liked that when possible, he used more eco/pet:people friendly options. Casey really knows his stuff and managed to get rid of our persistent gopher problem in a couple weeks. read more

Casey got rid of our gopher problem in our front and backyard. He was able to come by and set traps the same day I contacted him and followed up later that week. We haven't had any problems since and we're so grateful! read more

Casey is your man for rodents. He really tries hard and has the knowledge and technical expertise to perform what I see as part art and part science. read more

Casey was great. I ended up not having to use his gopher services as he said I don't have any current activity for him to set traps. But he came out to my yard and spent time looking for gopher activity and made sure there is none. I would definitely use his services when I need help again. read more

We had a mouse problem. Casey was able to come out the same day for a complimentary inspection in Benicia. He took his time inspecting the house and took even more time giving us pointers on what we can do, where the mice are likely coming from, and general mouse behavioral patterns to look out for. After the inspection, he gave us an option to either try again ourselves to catch them or he could come back tomorrow with traps. With Casey's advice and our own sticky traps, we were able to trap all 6 of the mice that has been terrorizing our home! The customer service alone and complimentary inspection is worth 5 stars. We will definitely be calling Casey for any future pest issues. read more

Casey was so helpful in getting my mouse and gopher issues under control! He was diligent, thorough, and hard working when it came to solving this issue for me. And he's extremely knowledgeable and passionate about his work. I can't thank him enough for his services. Last but not least he's just a really cool and nice guy, he was really kind and patient with my puppy and toddler being all in the mix! I highly recommend this company. read more

Casey is great! We've been dealing with a mouse infestation on and off for the last year. Within a couple weeks he trapped all the mice and then made sure they couldn't get in. Still no sign of them. Our dogs loved him too! Thanks so much Casey! read more

Casey is an excellent professional. He is thorough, explains everything well, and is straightforward about cost. His pricing was very reasonable too. I would highly recommend his services. read more

I asked for quotes with help regarding gopher extermination thru Yelp. Casey was the first to respond with a YES. He was able to visit my 1 acre property the next day, right on time. I found him to be professional, knowledgeable, honest about his expected results and extremely cost efficient. If I have any reccurence, Casey will be my first call. I love helping a new owner operated business over big chains if I can. I'm sure you will love him. Thanks Casey! read more

Casey caught a whole bunch of gophers and moles in our backyard and it ended up being cheaper than if we went with a big company. Money very well spent and I wouldn't hesitate to spend more if needed in the future. He's also kinda a nerd about gophers and moles, which is another way of saying he knows his stuff. And he shares his knowledge often which has been helpful as well. Now I've got a mouse problem so I'll be calling him again soon! read more

Casey is the best he provides the most honest service and doesn't rush. And, he has a heart for all animals. I can't recommend him enough.

We had an Argentine ant problem. We'd used every product you could buy at the hardware store. We still had ants. Then Casey came. Now we don't have ants. He checked in to make sure they were gone, which was nice. Reasonable price, and doesn't try to upsell you into a long-term "plan". read more

Casey did a great job of removing invading gophers from my backyard. He carefully assessed the situation and spent a couple of hours placing traps. Very conscientious about communicating status and checking traps, the invasion was repelled within a week. Highly recommended. read more

Casey responded to my request to investigate a possible gopher problem the same day. He set traps on the spot. He followed up a couple of days later to set more traps in my neighbor's yard, and the problem was taken care of. Casey is very knowledgeable, efficient, and ethical in his business practices. His fees are very reasonable. He's also a very laid-back and cool person. Please don't hesitate to contact Casey for any of your pest control needs. read more

Had a rodent camping out in our garage - not in the house. There was a couple of places where it needed to be sealed up - vents and garage door weather seal. I just wanted exclusion work done. Casey was quick to respond, flexible on timing, evaluated the situation and made a recommendation on how to address. He purchased the supplies in advance, scheduled for next day, arrived as promised on time and went to work. He is really professional and provide a great deal of insight on what to do and not to do when looking for rodents, how to figure out if they are still getting in and what to consider when setting up traps. I highly recommend Casey and will call him again if needed. read more

I can't say enough good things about Casey- friendly, responsive, professional, great rates, and he delivers with results. Highly recommended! read more

I had a freakin possum on my patio! Called like 10 companies and Casey was the quickest to respond and the quickest to come out. I could tell that he was very knowledgeable and passionate about pets when speaking with him. Casey came right over, was very friendly, and quickly removed the possum from off my patio. Casey wasn't overpriced and was very genuine! I'm hoping not to have anymore furry friends but will definitely call him if I do. read more
