First, the one and only nice thing to say is that the exterminators are usually very nice people and mean well. However, they are the furthest thing from experts. They've yet to figure out why mice are getting in the building, and their answer to everything is scheduling follow up appointments. Automated phone services are more useful than their live receptionists. Not only are they completely incompetent, but they're nasty as can be. They tell you a time slot and don't show up, they have flat out not showed up at all, and never take accountability for anything. How they are still in business is baffling. This company needs to be exterminated.

I was going to see if I can take care of the problem myself but I went online and found them instead. They did all the work. They moved what had to be moved in my apartment to get to source. Not only did they kill the little critters but also sealed my mattress to prevent any further infestation. I highly recommend Ecology EP. If you ever come across this problem, do give them a call. Like I mention before they were courteous and expedient.Their prices too were reasonable and below the competition. For the relief they gave me, it was worth it.

I had bedbugs once before in 2007, and I've seen how other companies operate, so it's not for…read morenothing when I say I'm extremely impressed with Ecology EP and Arnold the director. (N.B. I will alter this review if their work doesn't hold up, so please take comfort if this is still here and still has five stars three months from now.) The thing is, when I woke up this morning to find a live bedbug walking across my comforter in front of my nose, I instantly went into full panic mode--not because bedbug bites are so terrible (you'll survive)--but because the PROCESS is MISERABLE. Here was what was horrible BEFORE I found Ecology Ep: *Landlord pretended like he'd never heard of such a thing, and only begrudgingly sent his "exterminator" who sprayed with generic chemicals around the perimeter and left me with hopping mad bedbugs. (Note to 25 year old me: Small Claims Court is your friend.) *I was poor and as a result (or so I thought) the guy I could afford said that I had to do a lot of work on my own. Meaning: *Bagging up everything I owned. *Carrying everything that I could wash to the laundromat. *Dry cleaning what I could afford to dry clean and throwing away the rest. *Buying a new mattress cover and putting it on my infested mattress all by myself. *Throwing out half my furniture. *And even then he had to come back twice, probably because I didn't do everything correctly (given that I was doing it all by myself.) Arnold put me through none of that. It was AMAZING. Here's why: *Great price written right on the website--and LESS than what I paid in 2007. That's shocking--you'll see why in a minute--but it was also great because it meant I could call my landlords and say: "Here's what we're doing, THIS is the price, you're legally obligated to pay for it, and we're doing it tonight before the problem becomes insane. Also, it's coming out of my rent." They said, "Oh my god oh my god fine!" *They guaranteed the work at the industry standard, also right on the website. Another thing I could tell my landlords. *They're licensed and insured and used proper invoicing, also great for dealing with landlords. *Ecology Ep showed up the same day I called. *Arnold brought a small ARMY of people. Four workers, all very sweet. *The price INCLUDED mattress covers for my bed AND my futon. *THEY put the mattress covers on (the worst job ever.) *THEY moved all my furniture--but I didn't have to throw anything away! *THEY bagged up all the things that needed washing. *THEY helped me carry all my stuff to the laundromat. *Instead of putting me through the cost of dry cleaning, THEY brought a steam cleaner and steamed all my good clothes. *AND they didn't just spray with Ecologically sound (but guaranteed!) chemicals, but they ALSO sealed the cracks in my floors and steamed all my books and things I probably couldn't clean on my own. *AND they found the bedbug nest. And killed those jerks. *AND they were extremely kind and lovely about it, from beginning to end. A real plus when you're traumatized by bedbugs. Also, I asked Arnold to check another property while he was in the area, and he found no bedbugs. He could easily have sold me on more work, but he didn't lie, above-and-beyond compassion and professionalism I found consistent with the negative review and his response listed here. Frankly, his straightforward response to the negative review on his free service was an additional reason for me to hire him. Arnold told me he has a lot of contracts now with a lot of large shelters, dorms, and schools, and I believe it. As a young single woman, Ecology EP's help was enormous at an unbelievable price. I strongly recommend them to others who need help.

Cha-Ching we got your money! YEP and there are moths still around the areas they decided THEY WOULD NOT Spray. After dealing with two other pest control companies I found these people. Given the positive ratings here, I can only assume that the service tech we got is not the same OR the service tech just decided to treat us poorly! Communication is everything! DUH. I have my own business. I have customers. I actually listen to my customers! Because they are paying me. These guys tossed aside everything I asked for in favor of take the money, run and when the customer puts up a terrible review cancel there warranty FAST! ANY excuse to cancel a binding contract will do but only after taking the customers money eh? Who does that? If your upset about a review then speak to your customer. Don't breach a contract for any frivolous reason. Hmmm first it was "I cancelled your warranty because you said your getting another company". Answer: For the termite/carpenter ant work you didn't do lady. Then the excuse was "because you didn't clear the pantry area properly". My Answer: Uhhh if that is the reason how is it you wait until the review but after you send me a zero bill. You understand digital communication is time stamped right? The review, the emails you sent me? Everything! Its called evidence for small claims court. Yep cause I work from home. I love small claims court even for diminimus contracts! Because I don't like bad service! 1. Original request: Please service our Pantry Moth infestation AND check for termites. For moths we need the whole house sprayed. Oh and we have BIRDS so we will stay in a hotel. 2. The guy comes out. I repeat the above. He checks for termites. He says they are "carpenter ants". I was shocked! I asked for Carpenter Ants servicing. He says its "another guy". He will contact me. 3. We agree on a date to spray for the moths. He comes the following week to drop some moth traps (so they can charge me). He leaves. I never hear anything about termites or the actual moth service date. I call the office when the schedule date comes and goes. Me: oh he scheduled some other date? Fantastic communication! BTW i had still not heard about the termite/carpenter ANT evaluation. Nada! 4. The new schedule date comes two weeks later 7.31.21, because i cant find a hotel...We clear out the kitchen pantry. (No small effort) and leave for a hotel with our Birds, Cat and dog (because he is spraying the whole house right?). My last words to the service person (after handing him a bottle of Dasani) I will be back before you leave. When will you be done? Answer: 30 min. 5. I come back he is gone. (He left the water on the table two swigs gone. Who does that?). He left our door unlocked. He sent not a single text alerting me. I was dumb enough to stop at a ATM to get him a $40 tip. DUH I later learn that he didn't spray the whole house for moths as requested. Negating the whole reason for the hotel stay). Just Imagine two adults slepping: two birds, two bird cages, bird food, cat, liter box, cat bowls, cat food, pug, pug food, pug bowls and a pug leach, through and over sold hotel. Just Imagine! For an unnecessary ONE Day local hotel stay PLUS pet fees $240) Yep Nope When I flipped out and posted a negative review, the genius behind this (tell the customer anything, then do nothing but get there credit card), motley group of thieves, emailed me that she was cancelling my warranty (I guess she is mad about my poor review). Her latest excuse was that we didn't properly clear out the pantry. That's because Robin, I was clearing out the other rooms you decided you were not going to do. Of course you are canceling my warranty Robin you have my money now eh.? I was always hesitant about giving all these pest control companies my credit card. There answer: "its to protect us". Sadly, there is nothing to protect the poor consumer from unprofessional thieves. Well except small claims court.

Lo and behold, a few months later a mouse made its way into my unit through one of those holes.

These people are so lazy that they show up to your place visibly angry that they have to work. They do the absolute bare minimum, nothing like the kind of proper pest control treatment of an apartment you would expect from supposed "professionals". I have had instances where they came to my place and left seconds after arriving when I left them unattended for a moment to go to the bathroom, just to avoid having to do any work. If they do actually spray or apply any pest control treatments, which you have to fight them to get them to do, because otherwise they will just walk into your place and say "looks good to me" and then leave, they will just blindly spray everywhere, including spraying toxic chemicals on clothes and furniture, unless you explicitly tell them not to do that. They are incredibly rude, I had to throw one of their people out of my apartment after he entered and began verbally harassing me and insulting the clothes that I had on. This is an absolute bottom shelf company, run and staffed by the most incompetent and lazy people I have ever encountered. If you are thinking of calling them, I would strongly advise you to call anyone else (ANYONE) or to considering doing it yourself, as they are not going to do anything anyways unless you fight them to do it. Their only goal is to come to your door so they can say that they came and collect their money, and then leave as fast as possible. I seriously doubt the authenticity of some of these other reviews, which are suspiciously enthusiastic and are all 5 stars, as the service that this cut rate company provides is no where close to 5 stars, or any stars. I would give negative stars if I could.
