Recon Pest Control quickly contacted me. They were able to get a technician to come out to the property the same day in the afternoon. Sigma Avila, the technician, did a wonderful job of explaining to me the plan for the rodent control of my back patio. He was professional and friendly. I would definitely recommend this company. Very reasonably priced as well. read more

It was an unusually hot, 108 degree day when I found ants inside my air conditioned home office. I freaked. Our home is spotless and insects are rarely a problem. I called one pest control company and they referred me to Recon Pest Control and told me recon uses better chemicals for my situation. So I call em and they send Tyler right out-no waiting. He knocks down spider webs, thoroughly sprays everywhere, problem solved. So then a month goes by and he returns to spray again but then we get hit with another crazy hot, triple digit heat wave and I find a few ants in my office again. Tyler comes right back and resprays the entire property a second time. Since then I haven't seen a bug in or around the house once. I usually see something, often around the pool area but nada. Even the dog's food bowls are left alone. After replacing the tile on my roof, some rats found their way into my attic. We'd hear their mating ritual echoing through the walk-in closet in the master bedroom. Called Recon and they sent Ryan out to set traps and seal the entry points. Problem solved instantly...subsequent inspections showed no sign of rodentia in our home. Insects and rodents...I don't mind them when camping in the backcountry but hate em around my home. Recon is the fast & affordable solution. My advice? Next time Mother Nature bugs you call the TERMINATORS at Recon Pest Control. They set the customer care bar so high other exterminators need to charter a plane just to see it. Thanks Recon, you're the best! read more

Called for follow-up when I noticed ants in the upstairs bathtub area. Called Recon, and Ryan came over the same day to address the issue. Recon said from the start that if there was any problem after the initial treatment, they'd be back free of charge to take care of it. They deliver on what they say. Thanks for the great service! read more

This was their first service at my house. They were very thorough and professional. Also they manage your expectations as realistic outcomes. No over promises which I really appreciate. read more

Ryan let us know when arriving Quick job and hopefully no more bugs in master bedroom ...... Thanks again

I contacted this company and a few others, recon was competitive with pricing and options but also working with Ryan was great. He did a fantastic job explaining the various treatment options for preventive issues with rats/mice. Ultimately, we went with patching and securing intrusion areas that were entry points. We appreciate Ryan for his expertise. read more

Tyler was great! Super knowledgeable. Communication is always great! Amazing that the years since we started using Reckon we have never had ants again. Thank you Reckon team! read more

Tyler serviced my house this morning - cool dude & was quick & efficient, took his time explaining how the product worked. Definitely a more personal experience than dealing with the nation wide companies, which I appreciate! Will have him keep coming back to manage pests around the house. read more

These guys are the best Always very professional and great advice and info. They answer all your questions! read more

On time, clear communications, very detail oriented. Highly recommend! Tyler and his team got everything right from the first call to the follow through text explaining what was done. read more

We bought a house with a rodent problem. Our tech, Ryan, has come by weekly to close up potential places of entry and to trap the rodents that were in our attics. He always comes with a good attitude, lets me know when he's on his way, and has solved the problem. Ryan also takes care of spraying our yard for bugs, and since he started, we have had no issues. read more

So easy, quick, professional and friendly! I wish we scheduled this sooner. Thank you to our tech Ryan! Even swept away the old spiderwebs which made our outdoor spaces look so much better read more

Great customer service and from ownership down a great team. I like the fact that it's a local family owned business not one of the national companies! Great service I would highly recommend them. read more

Reached out (via Yelp) to several exterminators regarding having a wasp/hornet nest removed - including all the pertinent details. Recon responded promptly. Based on the details I provided, they quoted a (reasonable) service price in the first (human) email. They were the ONLY provider that did that (quote in the first human email). So, they got the job, and I scheduled service with them. They provided a 4-hour window estimated for when they would arrive. They arrived well within that window, and inspected the situation. In addition to the primary nest I specified, they identified four (4) others I had not noticed. They quickly eliminated all five (5) nests, and sprayed the area two (2) them had been located-in (lower eaves, close to high-traffic ares) to discourage wasps from returning there and rebuilding later. The whole thing was over in like 15-20 minutes. There was no extra surpise charges for the additional nests, etc. I will definately be keeping them in mind for any future needs. read more

Sigma from Recon arrived on time and took care of the bi-monthly service in an efficient and thorough manner, and addressed my questions graciously. Recon is a very good company to deal with and technicians like Sigma reflect this. I recommend them without any hesitation at all. read more

Ryan was very thorough and friendly! I've had Recon for almost a year and have been very pleased. Wonderful customer service as well.

Recon always surpasses all expectations! I've recommended them to so many. Thanks Tyler!

Super friendly staff - extremely easy to do business with - their tech is always available in case of issues - great communication - wonderful business read more

Ryan was so patient and helpful! He knows his stuff about rats that's for sure! Highly recommend

Ryan was great explaining everything to me. There was a rat issue at home and I definitely recommend Ryan if you have this issue too.

These guys are great! They come every other month and I have never had any issues. Saw something upstairs and they came right over and did an interior spray. Think the Santa Ana winds brought in a single visitor and that is enough for me! Glad they were so flexible about coming almost immediately. I highly recommend Recon Pest Control because they are local and responsive. They are also competitively priced. read more

We love Recon! The best ever and everyone who works here is amazing and kind! Always on time and always thorough. l appreciate all the effort to give us a heads up on scheduling so we can be sure to get our dogs out for a bit! We will always use this company for as long as we live in San Clemente! Every single technician is GREAT! read more

I can't recommend Recon Pest Control enough--especially technician Ryan Busby! From the very first visit, Ryan was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. His communication is top-notch--he clearly explained the issues, the solutions, and what to expect moving forward. Ryan helped us identify and manage several potential rat entry points around our property, and his attention to detail gave us real peace of mind. He also set us up with a monthly rodent maintenance service that has been running smoothly ever since. Their pricing is also very competitive. read more

Very pleased with their service. Prompt, thorough, friendly. Fair pricing. Between schedule visits provided at no charge, important when the ants show up. read more

We have owned buildings for a very long time and never had a great pest company until now. Please don't sell to the big guys they have terrible customer service and you are the best! They communicate quickly and a live person answers the phone! They are responsive and do what they say they are going to do! They are the same price but so much better service and my tenants are very happy also! read more

Highly recommend Recon Pest Control, especially Axel, who services our property! He is punctual, professional, and provides excellent customer service. I appreciate his attention to detail and recommendations to keep our home pest free yet safe for our pup. read more

Ryan did not give up on our critter mystery!!!! Thank Goodness!! 5 stars is not enough. And office staff was great also!! read more

We recently had an issue with unwanted guests (rats/mice) at my elderly mother's home, and I can't say enough good things about the service we received from Ryan at Recon Pest Control. From the very beginning, Ryan was professional, prompt, and incredibly thorough. He quickly identified that the rodents were entering through access points on the roof and wasted no time sealing off the exterior entryways. Some additional areas inside the attic also needed to be blocked off, which was no easy task given the tight space, but Ryan handled it without any problems. To make sure there were no rodents still living in the attic, he strategically placed traps and then set up a follow-up schedule--checking in weekly for an entire month to monitor the situation and confirm that all entry points were effectively sealed. Throughout the entire process, Ryan was respectful and communicative. Since my mom is older, he made a point to call me directly whenever he was heading over, which gave both of us great peace of mind. While I hope we never have to deal with a rodent problem again, it's a huge relief to know that if we do, we have someone as reliable and trustworthy as Ryan to call. Highly recommend! read more

I requested service to remove spiders and spider webs in my home. It was a minor issue. There were two easily visible spider webs at the ceiling of my bedroom. I asked the service person to remove the webs. He had a long-handled device with him. ( I am elderly, disabled and the ceiling was high.) The service person refused. When I called the office about this, I was told that the spider webs were a "housekeeping issue" and not covered in their service. Please reconsider any use of this company. read more

ADOREEEEEE OUR LOCAL GUYS! YES USED TO HAVE ANTHER COMPANY FOR OVER 30 years and was always having to call them and still had problems. Ryan was recommended by Reynolds Termite and WOW Mike was correct, RECON IS THE BEST in San Clemente They are prompt, knowledgeable, aware that I have a dog and love my Hummingbirds BUT get the bugs gone! Oh did I mention rats too!!!! Highly recommend Ryan and his entire team. read more

Brian of Recon Pest Control trated our new home we just moved into with a few undesired residents. The company has excellent customer support and Brian did a great job at addressing the problem. We signed up for their periodic treatments to keep the bugs in check. I highly recommend Recon to fix your bugs needs. read more

Ryan was very professional and knew what he was doing. Pricing was very reasonable - not at all like the expensive and bigger rat control companies. read more

Ryan was able to come by on short notice to apply some bait since a few ants had come in the kitchen.

Ryan serviced our perimeter of our home yesterday. He did a thorough job inspecting to be sure he sprayed where needed including both patios Sine we Bern using over the last few years I can honestly say we haven't had a bug insect or ant problem. Before we used them we had spiders and ants read more

Great service with smile and can do attitude. I highly recommend them if you have any rate or gofers issue. They will take of it all with reasonable price read more

Always notify me in advance of upcoming service. Axel is very polite and friendly; always checks in with me to see if there are any issues. He solved a severe ant problem a couple years ago. read more

I had a problem with *something* biting me.... never saw what it was. I received a quote from another service, saying it was "probably" fleas, and recommending a couple thousand dollars' worth of spraying, barriers, animal deterrents, etc. I called Recon, who sent Ryan out. He had a different opinion about the problem (tiny mosquitos). He put out traps and recommended a bug zapper. As it turns out, my problem went away (maybe Ryan scared the bugs away? maybe the intruders reached the end of their life cycles and didn't reproduce?). I would absolutely use Recon again, because they didn't try to upsell me. read more
