Orkin is a total disaster. Unprofessional, disorganized, and completely useless…read more If I could give zero stars, I would. Orkin Pest Control has been the most frustrating, unprofessional, and unresponsive company I've ever dealt with. We've been paying for monthly service, yet the pest problems continue and the service we're supposed to be getting simply doesn't happen. From the start, things were a mess. When we first set up our account, they sent a technician out for an initial visit. He showed up, greeted us with "What's good?" and immediately came off as unprofessional. We explained we wanted a general inspection around the home and some preventative treatment for insects. He flat-out refused and said they don't do that. I asked, "Then what are you here for?" and he sarcastically pointed at a cobweb and said, "Oh, I see one there." At that point, I asked him to leave because he clearly wasn't taking the job seriously and was acting like an entitled fool. I called to complain, and a manager sent out a different technician and this one was more respectful and gave us his personal business card, saying we could call him directly anytime we had issues. But when we actually did call him, he blew us off and told us there was nothing he could do, and to call the office. Of course, the office doesn't answer or return voicemails. Trying to get a same-day appointment which Orkin advertises as something they offer was a complete joke. I was passed from one customer service rep to another in what felt like a game of musical chairs. Each one would type my info into a system and say someone would call me back. Nobody ever did. To make it worse, one of their main numbers has a recorded message saying, "If this is an emergency, call this number." I called that number, and the person who answered said there's no such thing as an emergency line. So why are you telling customers otherwise? Then, a rodent got caught in one of the traps they placed, and when I called to have someone come remove it, I was told they don't offer that service. So I'm paying for pest control, but I'm expected to deal with the pests myself? On top of all that, they double charged me for a service, and the first rep I spoke to tried to brush it off like it wasn't a big deal. I had to demand a refund before anyone actually did anything about it. That's unacceptable. This company is completely disorganized. The technicians are unreliable, the customer service is useless, and the communication is non-existent. They're happy to take your money every month, but when it comes to actually doing their job, they vanish. Orkin is not worth your time or your money. Save yourself the frustration and go with a company that actually cares about its customers and stands by its service.

If you need an exterminator for bed bugs, this man is not your guy. He came for an appointment…read moretoday and was here for 5 minutes. Yes, you read that right... 5 minutes. For a bed bug problem. All he did was spray some pesticides and barely covered any ground. Bed bugs are a very different pest from any other pest you'll deal with, and he accomplished absolutely nothing for us today. I work remote and planned on working at a coffee shop today, and wasted my time planning around the appointment because we were informed that we would need to vacate our apartment while they did work around our house. So much for that! I would have expected at least SOME effort to inspect our apartment and maybe try and look around for where they might be. Nope! Barely even lifted a finger. His colleague stood outside the house the entire time, and Gary wasn't even willing to touch the mattress. I had to pull it out for him. What kind of exterminator is afraid of getting their hands dirty? It's your job to find bugs and exterminate them. At least pretend you're trying dude. Before he came, he had us empty all of our dressers and put our clothes in airtight bins. I'll admit, that's good advice, but that's something you'd probably read online before dumping money and time on someone like this. So yeah, thanks for regurgitating obvious information to me. This guy didn't even bother looking into any dressers or closely inspect any of our beds. He made absolutely no effort on his part. I ended up finding more bed bugs myself after thoroughly inspecting my roomate's room, and putting actual effort into making sure that we dealt with them the best way we could for the meantime. If you are reading this and you've discovered bed bugs in an early stage and it's not a big infestation yet, I highly recommend that you watch Mark Rober's bed bug video and follow it religiously. Buy bed bug traps for your bed, encase your bed in a high quality bed mattress cover, apply diatomaceous earth powder in a thin layer around your room (please wear a N95 mask and do your best not to inhale any of it), etc. Follow everything in that video before your bed bug problem becomes an infestation. Please watch that video. It will do you justice. If you caught your bed bug problem too late, you'll need a professional. In other words, not this guy. He might have good reviews for other pests, but he has absolutely no idea what he's doing in regards to bed bugs. He's afraid of them. He ain't gonna help you. Thanks for nothing, I'm sure whatever my landlord paid you was worth it.

Next day, YJ were having a party and did not appear like they wanted to leave. I found Family Termite & Pest Control on Yelp the next day. What caught my attention is that the company does not have you sign any contracts, they come and take care of things that you ask them to take care of. I left a message on Yelp and received a response from Gary in fairly short timeframe. He was at my door steps the following morning and took care of the problem. That same evening, I did not see a single YJ. Gary took care of the problem in quick and effective manner. Price was also very reasonable. I will definitely consider FT&PC for any future pest needs.

He did not clean off his boots and brought dirt into the house and is on the runner of my stairs. He did not really care when I mentioned this either. He did not have a ladder ready to bring inside because it was wet and on top of his vehicles so I had to get the ladder for him that I had. He left the floor dirty with insulation that came from the attic and didn't even offer to clean it up....didn't even acknowledge it. He left without saying goodbye...this whole visit was strange and I sent a note to complain. Laurie was very considerate and timely, but I don't think the same for the rest of the company. Her manager Matt does not care for follow up in customer complaints.
