We've been happy customers of Stride since June 2018 and can safely say that Stride is a top pest control service in the Austin area. Our favorite part is you can shoot them a quick text with a picture of the problem, and they'll schedule an appointment, all over text! We pay for the regular treatments, but if critters start popping up between the service, they'll come out and re-treat (usually for free) - we cannot recommend Stride enough, if you're on the fence and reading this right now, you won't make the wrong decision to go with Stride. All of the technicians have been stellar, but specifically I wanted to mention Burton - he has come to our house on multiple occasions and is always very polite, informative and thorough. Burton always goes the extra mile to check everything out around the house before he leaves, beyond the areas we've mentioned, and always chats with me on his way out to let me know what was applied, how it was applied, and any follow up steps (an engineer's dream). He even mentioned we should shoot him/Stride a text in 1-2 weeks to let him know if our attic ant issue is resolved. Thank you Burton! Stride really cares about their customers, and they do a killer job. There's a reason they are rated 5.0 stars on Google, Yelp & Facebook, and not 4.9 or lower. read more

Well, it's been one year later. The good news is that the carpenter ants are gone, although they did briefly come back between treatments, but they have not made a reappearance since. I do not see any more termite activity either. So the big question is, was it worth the cost? Well that depends on your finances and whether you can spare the $53+ monthly charge for 4 annual visits. We decided to cancel after a year to cut back on some expenses. And as I mentioned in the previous review, you'll get a text, which gives you the opportunity to also leave review and a tip. Overall, the service did what it was supposed to. They can also come out to do a single treatment which we will keep in mind. read more

Service happened so fast!! We had tiny ants and they were gone within minutes! The tech was super nice and efficient and have not seen one ant in 3 months! The service was very reasonably priced with a strong guarantee! read more

Bad customer service but followed up with decent customer service so iffy at best. We have moved on from them.

We switched to Stride after firing our long time company, which had declined in service and value. Stride was very responsive to our requests and got a team member out to our house lickety-split. They did a through job around our home and yard so our initial impression is very good. Looking forward to seeing how they do in the coming year. Recommended. read more

Stride Pest Control is customer-centered from front office to the folks who come to your home. Our guy on the ground is Ramone. We have had lots of pest control folks, over the course of nearly 40 years and homes in 4 states. Have not had a smiling, gregarious, knowledgeable, thorough technician as Ramone. He seeks to ensure that we are in good shape and satisfied, and will follow up as needed without reminders He's A+. The world needs more people like him. That being said, we're grateful for the original. read more

Marcos at Stride Pest in Austin came out for a termite issue. I have termites, but the company has since cut off contact and will not respond to emails. Don't waste your time. I will be trying to find another pest control company. read more

It was quick and easy to transition our pest control to Stride Pest Control this summer. They were able to send someone out within a few days. As Justin was wrapping up, I remembered we had a hornet's nest growing underneath a lawn table and he said it was no problem to quickly remove it before he left. We're fortunate to not have many issues, but I'm glad we switched and can rely on Stride. read more

$299 for one time service for a preventative spray with no active issues and pushy to sign up for regular service.

I specifically stated I needed SQUIRREL REMOVAL. SQUIRRELS!!! They send a really nice guy out to give us an estimate and then he tells us "we don't trap squirrels." Waste of my time and yours. read more

Very good pricing with a discount and very fast scheduling and service! Will update depending on how effecting treatment was in a few weeks but everything so far has been fantastic! read more

Very fast response time and very quick scheduling. The tech was super knowledgeable and friendly. We were accidentally overcharged at our first visit. We didn't even notice. Stride Pest reached out and made it right not even 2 days later. read more

The best customer service - from the gals at the office to the technicians. Thank you Ramone for always doing an amazing job, especially this morning! Honest, kind and professional staff. read more

I own a condo and our current pest control service for the exterior perimeter does not do wasp nest removal or spray for wasp. I have neighbors who started using Stride Pest control to control wasp nests and treat the interior of their condos. When I asked Bill Bob about wasp control services and pointed to wasp nests in the eaves of my two-story condo, he not only provided me information he took care of the wasp removal for me. I thought to myself, now this is a company I believe should be handling all of our pest control services for our entire community. When I called to a request a quote, I spoke to Michael. Michael was very professional and cordial as we spoke of the common pest control services needed. He even offered to speak and answer questions at the next condo board meeting. read more

I am extremely disappointed with this pest control company's business practices and customer service. When the sales representative came for marketing, he clearly explained that this was a 1-year contract. He took my signature on his iPad and verbally explained the terms, so I trusted his explanation and did not carefully read the fine print. I was never informed that the contract would automatically continue beyond one year. After the one-year period ended, the company continued charging my credit card without any notice, email, or phone call. When I contacted them after two months of these charges, they told me there was a 30-day notice period required to cancel. I immediately informed them that I did not want to continue the service and requested a refund for the charges taken after the contract period. They said they would cancel the service but refused to refund the money, even though the charges were made without my consent or proper communication. The way this was explained to me was very unprofessional and dismissive. It was honestly very upsetting. This company is very friendly and convincing when they are trying to sell their service, but when customers have issues, their attitude completely changes. I felt misled, unheard, and treated unfairly. I would strongly advise others to be very careful, read every condition in detail, and not rely solely on verbal explanations. read more

Embarrassed to say we have termites. Yet, found a company to help get this under control. Impressed with Ramone's professionalism and timeliness to help. I was ready to start crying waiting for the quote. Very reasonable. Was able to get on their schedule ASAP to get service started. Lesson we learned: Texas is termiteville. Get some kind of monthly service to avoid a big issue. Highly recommend Stride and ask for Ramone :) read more

Raul is very helpful and pleasant. Answers any questions I have. He does a very thourough job. Thanks Raul!

First time using Stride and let me just say, I highly recommend them for all your Pest Control needs. Our tech Ramone especially, truly went above and beyond to make sure our needs were heard, offered solutions, and quality assured his service. Stride will forever be our go to, for their phenomenal customer service, and peace of mind. read more

I have been utilizing Stride since our move from AZ to TX this past year. Really pleased with service and the low insect activity at our home. They even worked with at my transitional housing. I really enjoyed our tech today, Mr. Ramone Houston. Really would recommend him as your tech. Courteous, timely, and paid attention to what the customer had on their mind. He was very knowledgeable, but did not overstep the boundary of hearing the customer out first. I would request as my personal tech for now on. read more

Cade came to our home to investigate possible termite damage. He quickly identified our situation as carpenter ants, gave us a few options on treatment plans and went to work. He wore a mask and respected social distancing guidelines too. Much appreciated!! read more

Awesome pest control company! They keep us pest free no matter if it's wasp, mosquitoes, army worms or ants. Thomas H. did a great job at our house today and provided helpful tips on how to make our backyard as comfortable as possible. He really went the extra mile. read more

These guys are great, i had them confused with another service company. But i did miss the appt time and the mngt team came out and still serviced my house. Thank you!!! read more

Burt and the whole stride team always provide excellent service at a great price. Thank you guys so much!

Just had another great experience with Stride. We called them out to do a rodent check and instead of upcharging us for services we didn't need, they recommended a cheap and effective solution. Really can't recommend them enough. They are efficient, reliable, honest and great to work with. read more

Stride was able to come within 24 hours for a free bed bug inspection. They were thorough and informative. Communication was excellent.

Have a very big ant problem which was treated by another company with minimal results. Had these guys come out for a first treatment and what a difference it made. Saw results within the first few days! I highly recommend the company and will continue using them for any further issues we might have. read more

I was all set to go with this company on a new service plan only to learn after talking to the sales rep that there is a cancellation clause in their 'contract' requiring customers to pay the remaining 60% of any 'contract' window. This was not communicated to me during my initial call to learn how Stride offers it's services. This should have been communicated up front and it was not. I would have declined either way and continued searching for another company. I have been an ABC customer for many years and while I had some issues with them recently I was never required to enter into a 'contract' with a cancellation clause. read more

I reviewed Stride Pest Control 3 days ago, and the company office manager and owner called me to apologize for dropping the ball. I have an appreciation for a business that can admit when it made a mistake, and because of that, I gave them another shot. The tech came on time, was professional, and treated our home inside and out. It's hard to find a company that does a good job, it's hard to find a company that will admit a mistake and correct it. I was the exception to a wonderful Yelp rating. I wanted to update my review, and let other people searching for a pest control company know that they continue to be a company of excellence. read more

I can't say enough positive things about my technician Ramone. He was always on time, always courteous, and answered any questions I had. Truly great service! read more

I kept hearing buzzing noises in kitchen wall and suspecting wasps, i called Stride. Raul came out and found where they were entering the eaves of roof and treated that area and the adjoining eaves. I'm grateful for the quick, efficient service. read more

Quick, communicative and very polite. Super happy with their service and their flexibility with scheduling.

I just wanted to give a shout out to Stride Pest Control. Our house was under invasion from ants and we left a message for them during their off hours. By first thing the next morning they called and were quickly able to come out that day and help us out. The technician Daniel was very nice and took plenty of time to explain as he went. Great customer service and help with what turned out to be fire ants in our home! Thanks Stride!! Return service today was just as good we are on the plan for routine service. The technician was very nice and took the time to listen to our needs and offer full explanation. Very good company with excellent customer service!! read more

Had a mouse problem in our back yard, and after failed attempts at taking care of it myself, I gave in and decided to have the Pros take care of it. Man, I wish I would have called Stride sooner. Jason came out, did a thorough inspection, and explained everything in detail. He set the bait stations to get rid of our rodent problem, and gave me fantastic advice on how to prevent these issues moving forward. If I ever need pest control in the future, there's only one place to call. Stride! read more

So far so good....I had never used an extermination company before but after talking to some of the neighbors I decided to give it a shot...And after talking to Tyson and I wanna say Michael ( sorry if I'm wrong ) there was no turning back..Excellent communication and explained "in detail" what the benefits were and the things I could do on my own if I didn't want to go with a professional exterminator; but that MY results would definitely not be as good. Anyhow, Jared and (?) came out and were very professional and did the inside, the attic area, and the outside within an hour, and it's been great so far...Just enjoyed the extreme knowledge and professionalism of the whole group and would recommend them big time for Georgetown and other areas..Thanx a million and God bless y'all !!! read more

Love Stride Pest Control in Bee Cave, TX! They are so far superior to the national chain I was using. Give them a try for a pest free home! read more

Stride does a great job they even have the same tech come out to my house each time so he's familiar with my space because we have cays dogs pigs chickens and horses so we need animal safe products Thanks Jason and everyone at stride read more

I'm usually a DIY guy when it comes to pest control. I spray around the house every 6 months and set up baits with the first sign of potential pests. This combined with being clean in general has worked for year... until a sudden surge of ants last fall. The ants came suddenly in force. Normal baits (like Terro) held them off for a couple of days but they didn't stop the invasion like before. Within a few days, they were all over the kitchen and began invading the carpets in the living room as well. That's when I called Stride who took care of the issue swiftly. Rhett came to service our house on short notice. I asked a lot of technical questions and he was able to answer of them in great details. He sprayed inside the house and set down a lot of liquid baits. The baits were set up so inconspicuously that I wasn't worried even though we had a toddler running around the house. I noticed its effect instantly and within a few days, all the ants were gone, even if I left food bits on the floor on purpose. But that's not the only service that their package came with. In addition, Rhett also sprayed the whole exterior of the house, the weep holes, removed any potential wasp nests, applied Bifen granules on the lawn as well as heavy duty fire ant baits. Sure their price is above average but given the quality and quantity of their service, I say it's well worth it! Lastly, we actually used Stride a second time half a year later when our crushed granite backyard patio got infested with a swarm of seasonal bugs. I communicated with the owner Tyson this time and everything about our communication was professional. He went the length to help me identify the bugs and serviced our backyard patio free of charge. Needless of say, we're 100% satisfied with Stride's service. Neither of the issue has resurfaced since their service and even if they do, we know who to contact. read more

I'm going on a year using Stride Pest Control and I have really enjoyed their customer service. I can email them with questions and I receive a prompt response. Everyone I have been in contact with is friendly and helpful. I can tell they really care about their customers! read more

Reliable service, keeps the bugs at bay. Very happy customer for over 4 years. Thomas H is very friendly and braved the wasp nests!

Owning a house on a green belt has consequences! I used Stride for at least a year, then tried four other companies serving Round Rock: J&M Services, Aptive Environmental, Pest Management Corp, and TrulyNolen. There's a lot of variety in this industry: different specialties, business models, and company cultures. Sometimes it's more corporate, sometimes it's two guys and two trucks in business. Stride treated the interior and exterior. Stride's professionalism, communication, punctuality, and reliability were all excellent. I liked in particular that their office staff not only communicated with me via text (convenient), but I also gave them my partner's name and number up-front, asking them to be aware of/involve her. And, whether it was one office staffer's good memory, or a good system of notation, it worked out, because they never eventually "forgot" that she was a factor in our account. It exceeded my expectations that after at least a year, they still remained aware of and included a person with whom they seldom-if-ever actually communicated, because that's what I asked for. When rescheduling happened, it came from me, not them, and they always kept their appointments. Stride is in the "met & exceeded expectations" bracket. read more
