Orkin - 9629 Palm River Rd Tampa - excellent service and particularly their technicians (especially Brandon) are prompt, polite and respond immediately if you have any issues...Have used them for over 30 years and will continue to do so... read more

BEWARE!! I am very disappointed and upset; I am a fairly new widow and have had a broken hip and another surgery recently; a handyman working at my house said, "I think you should have a pest control service, you have 14 wasps nests around your house". I said, "I have a pest control service", but had wondered about the wasps and carried wasp spray outside all the time. I'm angry; since my husband died suddenly, I've had so much to do. I thought that Orkin was a reputable company that would be able to do their job without supervision. Instead, they've taken advantage of me. I'm going to see if there's a state agency that I can report them to. Here I am, an older woman and woman who has major health issues; what a great person to take advantage of. I even reported this to a woman who called to confirm an appointment (which I cancelled!) She said her manager would call me today! He never called!! Scam from a major company! read more

Orkin messed up on my cancellation TWICE!!!. They supposedly "canceled" my service before feb. I got notified today I am now getting serviced . The lack of professionalism from office staff is very condescending and rude. Overall, if you wanna cancel from these guys make sure you get confirmation after cancellation so they don't charge you twice !! Ridiculous! Do not service with Orkin save your money. read more

they charge 185$ just for inspection. and that gets covered if u decide to get their service. just imagine what the actual service would cost.. maybe in 500$ 600$ bucks. what a rip off. by the way, the advertise free inspection ..however only selected regions/areas/cities. Avoid and call local businesses..instead of these big corporate companies who r vultures read more

Orkin 9629 Palm River Rd. Tampa. We've been consistently impressed with the service from Orkin and our technician, Ryan Perez. His dedication hasn't changed--if anything, it's only gotten better. Ryan regularly checks in on us when he's in the area, even when we don't have a scheduled visit, just to make sure everything is okay. That kind of attention and commitment is rare these days. He truly goes above and beyond, and it's a big part of why we're so satisfied with Orkin's service. read more

I've been using Orkin since moving into my home 3 years ago. I've had a few different people service my home, but currently have Abré, who I've had for the longest. He has been consistent and thorough. I would definitely recommend! read more

Guys, don't use Orkin with local office as rockledge. I've been trying since September to cancel that service that was suppose to be a one time use and no one ever canceled it. Supposedly they have a contract signed allowing them to do this but I don't remember signing anything and I KNOW i didn't request that. I called them several times and requested this but the guy keeps coming out while I was at work and they keep charging me. I finally talk to a different person who seems like he's from higher up position and can cancel my service but can't take the 75$ off that they are charging me again and has to have the office manager Jeff call me back. They have maxed out my credit card even after multiple requests of canceling. Both receptionist Dawn and Trisha were very monologue and didn't seem like they could give a crap, both said on multiple occasions they would cancel my service and I wouldn't be charged but yet when I spoke with the last gentleman he said he would go ahead and cancel it which tells me those two ladies are NOT doing their jobs and will he cancel it? I have been using them since 2020, I will call them every time I need service because they had did a great job in the past. I don't know what all has changed in the last year but they are awful. Guys it's worse than pulling teeth trying to get this resolved. I would literally compare the frustration to the frustration you get when you're in labor and having contractions. This is INSANE read more

Live in Palma Ceia and hired Orkin for termite prevention/monitoring. A short time after they placed "bait stations" I noticed my gutters overflowing during rains. After some detective work I found that they had driven bait stations through 3 out of 4 underground gutter drain lines totally obstructing them which required a significant repair. In addition, I've subsequently found that they nearly hit 2 irrigation system pipes. Beware, because the stations are driven into the ground blindly and are deep enough to cause major damage to underground systems. read more

Christian H. with Brandon Orkin has been providing pest control since May 2024. Christian never misses an appointment and is always on time. He's thorough and things just continue to improve. I appreciate his work ethic, which goes above and beyond my expectations. Thank you Christian! read more

avoid avoid avoid !!!! Do not use Orkin !!! They lock you into 1 year contracts way overpriced !!! look up the reviews first

This company has been Legit for as long as I can think. Now I pay for service people on the phone are rude and could careless about the customer. Managment refuses to do the job sold and promised orkin is no longer a top notch competitor look elsewhere people because this company is about the green no longer about great service sad but true !!!! read more

My orkin technician is great. Brandon Connor has been keeping my home pest free for some time. He is professional, efficient and prompt to handle and concerns. read more

great customer service and answering calls in a timely manner. had such a terrible cockroach infestation in a rental we just moved into and Ryan was sent to take a look. he was so helpful and informative after we dealt with a not-so-great pest control company. he saw how distraught i was about the situation and recommended the best course of action for us. our roach problem is SO much better!! i am an Orkin customer for life after this. it's a little expensive but so worth it. read more

My family is dealing with a terrible No See Um issue inside the house. We were trying to contact Orkin for pest control help. In the middle of our discussions Orkin abruptly told us to find someone else to help us after we had been in discussions with them for days about getting help just because we had questions about the service agreement. We contacted Terminix and they showed up the same day we called to help us out in our situation. I don't understand why a company with such a big name like Orkin would treat people like this, but I think everyone should know about our terrible experience. read more

Had orkin out several times due to a roach problem. They no-called no-showed on my tenants twice, so I reported to the manager. The manager was very nice and said he would like to start coming out monthly to work on the roach problem and there would be no more problems with someone not showing up. For the 3rd - time the orkin guy no showed last Saturday and the place still has live roaches around over 3 months of treatment. Horrible customer service, poor ability to fix the issue. read more

Pam and Tom just left my residence and I was blown away by their customer service. They came in and asked me questions and then explain to me what they were looking for and inspected my home. They were very honest and did not try to scam or lock me in a yearly service and for that I am very thankful because it seems like everyone wants to sign you up and lock you into a price. But Pam and Tom were wonderful I highly recommend if you have any pest control needs make sure to give Orkin a call. read more

2 calls made since my renewal of my contract; no calls back. Made a third call to the local office; explained my situation and NO APOLOGY. NOTHING. "J" the lady I spoke with basically cut me off in mid sentence to take my request and that was it. RUDE AND AWFUL customer service. read more

I'm a realtor trying to set up an inspection, so my buyer can obtain an estimate, and Christian, at the call center said, said she can't set it up with me nor would she take the transaction coordinator's info to call and set up the estimate. I told her that, she was going to lose the sale, and she really didn't care. Shame on you Orkin for such terrible customer service! I will now call Terminex! I will also tell all my clients NOT to use orkin, and I have lots of clients! I would have given no stars, but that option was not available! read more

After discussing with a representative about a specific area of concern, a backyard patio, I scheduled a service appointment between 8 and 10 am to look at and possibly do a 1 time treatment of the area. When the rep arrived at 920am (not bad, within the window), he literally demanded that I sign a 1 year service agreement, otherwise he would do nothing. He immediately went to responses such as "I have been doing this for 23 years" and "it is a requirement before I do anything" in an attempt to make me agree to something that I had not originally requested, and had specifically told the phone rep that I did not want. This strong-arm tactic is extremely disrespectful, unprofessional, and I will be following up with a BBB complaint as well following this and other review sites. read more

A technition was supposed to be at my house on Saturday July 21 between 12 and 2. HE NEVER SHOWED UP!!! Why am I getting billed for services if the tech isn't going to show up??? read more

Great service and professionalism. Great admin response! Managers are fantastic. I like my sales person and our tech is awesome.

Just want to give a shout out to Steve for his outstanding customer service. Have been calling the main office numerous times to no avail. When Steve contacted me because he had heard I was having problems not only did he call me right away, he was at my house within 10 minutes to speak to me and fix my problem. His professionalism and customer service go above and beyond. Kudos to you Steve! And thank you ! read more

I had someone out to do a termite inspection before I started construction work on my house. As a single woman homeowner, I have encountered my fair share of attempted scamming from various businesses, assuming that I wasn't informed or capable of understanding the issues my home had. The representative from Orkin was extremely condescending, speaking to me like I was a child--making sure he was speaking slowly enough for a woman to understand. He tried to tell me that my house did not need to be tented, just some foam around the doorframes. Turns out, this company lost their chemical license and actually cannot preform tenting at all. So instead of telling me what my house actually needed (tenting), he tried to sell me on some foam treatment at an outrageous price. Avoid this company. read more
