Supposed to be where the dryer connected

Starts good, but ends in frustration. I originally contacted Terminix back in October, I had squirrels in my attic and walls so I had to get someone out there quick. Terminix looked great on paper, so I gave them a call and someone came out quick. To have everything done, it was almost $9k. Which was basically setting traps in the attic and the crawl space, going under the house to the crawl space and removing all the insulation, spraying it down to remove the smell from the squirrels who had nested down there, and then replacing all the insulation. They also placed down black tarp and blocked all the vents to keep the squirrels coming in. OK, that was steep but I needed to get it done in fear of maybe the squirrels would chew on the electrical wires and make a bigger issue. The sales man was very confident and explained everything to me ( except the interest from the loan I took through their company to pay for everything ) so I said yes. We scheduled a time and a crew came out and got to work. It turned out that they miscalculated the amount of insulation and because I was already quoted one amount they were not going to charge me anymore because of their error. That was great, I thought "OK, nice. They're taking ownership. This was a nice choice." However, when they left, they left so much debris, lint, and trash that I couldn't let me dog out until my sister used our vacuum cleaner to vacuum THE GRASS. A part of me was understanding but another part of me just wished they said something. If my sister didn't go out to check and saw that mess, I could have let my dog out and a possibility of her eating it. Which would have been an expensive vet issue. Let's fast forward now to around the mid to end of January. I had another company come out to check something with my floors. While down there, he told me he noticed that the dryer vent was not connected to either the dryer itself or to a path that leads outside. He also noticed a large amount of insulation left on the far side of the house. After he left, I went into the crawl space and noticed what he was talking about. Lint was now going all crawlspace. I called Terminix after seeing it and the woman told me that they had no opening spots but they will have someone call me to schedule an appointment when it becomes available. OK, weird but sure. I waited 2 business days and no one called me back. I called back Wednesday, spoke to a man who said "Weird, we have Randy scheduled to come to your house Friday but we just don't know what time Friday". I work from home, so it's fine I guess. I confirmed Friday 2/6 and he said yes. Friday came and went, no call no show. Called Saturday and the woman confirmed someone was supposed to be there early around 8AM-10PM on Friday. Since this was now my third time calling, she was going to escalate the call to her supervisor and I would receive a phone call in 24-48 hours. I gave them 2 business days. I worked at a call center, I get how things get hectic. I'm not a complete monster. I called them back today 2/11/2026 and spoke to another female. I gave her my name and address, knowing they were going to ask for it. I mean, it's my fourth time calling about the same thing. Told her I want to speak to a supervisor. She kept trying to de-escalate the call. I explained the situation for the FOURTH TIME and she then asked for my name and address. "I already provided that to you" but gave me an excuse they need to verify the information. She finally placed me on hold and got me to a District type supervisor, and I explained FOR THE FIFTH TIME the situation. Does no one note the account?? The supervisor explained that she couldn't really help me because she's not over my area. What? She said she would send a request out to the branch in my area and that they would contact her back soon. This around 9AM. She then said regardless of what happens, she would call me back at 10:30AM with an update. It's now 11:17AM. Again, I'm not a monster. I worked at a call center. I know things happen, meetings can come up unexpectedly, but I'm about to call a FIFTH TIME and explain the situation a SIXTH TIME. I'm not asking them to completely redo everything. Just remove the insulation your company left and fix the dryer vent. That's it. It will take less than 30 minutes! It honestly feels like they're purposely giving me the run around so I would just do it myself. I will NEVER SUGGEST TERMINIX at this point to ANYONE. This company is quick to get your money but not quick to fix any of their mistakes.

Michael just finished almost shrink wrapping my house to keep unvited rats from invading my crawl…read morespace and then sneaking into my kitchen. If his work doesn't keep them out, nothing will. My experience with Mayday Pest Control started with a detailed inspection by Jonathan and an proposal that was very reasonable. It came with a one-year warranty and the option of renewing yearly at a cost that breaks down to about $20 a month. Scheduling was easy. They scheduled my one-week follow up while Michael was still on the job. Both Jonathan and Michael, the technian, were profession and unusually punctual, showing up at exactly when they said they would. That's key to me. Michael was delightful. He spent hours at my house looking for ways these crafty rats were getting into my house and blocking it. His description of the work he was doing sounded like the perfect approach. It's too soon to see if all this worked. But in the meanwhile, I'm telling my neighbors who are also under seige by these rodents that have been displaced by nearby contruction. Can't say enough positive about Mayday, Jonathan and Michael.

The cliche, "above and beyond" does not touch the surface of Calvin's customer service. I don't…read morehave an infestation issue, but the thought of one was keeping me up on this night. It was 2 A.M and I was researching pest control companies (knowing that I had to get up at 4 A.M.) and perused Calvin's yelp reviews! The reviews were very believable and sincere, so I immediately reached out to he company at 2 AM. Surprisingly, I didn't get an answering machine, I got a live person that was attentive and very professional. I got Calvin and I was sold. We made the appointment for the same day and lets just say that he has "earned" a lifelong customer. In fact, this review is the pre-cursor to the verbal and written notice of severance of service that I am going to give to my (soon to be previous) pest control company. Now, let me tell you about my service experience. At the appointed time, Calvin and his crew arrived and they are a handsome bunch so I now had excellent service and eye candy to add to the collection of professional experiences. Moving on, Calvin's team blew and inspected my garage so it was sparkling clean AND treated for pests. They used sustainable bug repellent outside my home, which smelled really good in the autumn wind. Ok, so if the presentation, professionalism wasn't enough... Lets move on to the educational experience and what exactly cemented my understanding that I can never have another exterminator take care of my place. Calvin illuminated areas that existed that I was not aware of. He pulled out my stove, my refrigerator, and shined the cool light that he had light attached to his forehead so that I could see what was really going on behind my appliances. He cleaned and sealed the holes and this was more than any other exterminator had ever done. When he wrote the bill up (which I was glad to pay), he educated me on exactly they types of chemicals used and the amounts of concentrations of the active ingredients. In closing, you want to do business with Calvin of Absolute Exterminating Services LLC. This by far, was a very unique experience that has raised the bar.

Calvin and team are awesome. Since I began using them I haven't had any issues. They are also quick…read moreto respond if I see a critter that scares me. They do the inside of my house, outside (termite stations, and in the summer snake control).
