What is Orkin Pest Control?

Orkin, founded in 1901, has over 120 years of experience with pest control. It has more than 400 locations across the world, including branches in most U.S. states. The company provides pest control for homes and businesses and guarantees customer satisfaction. Orkin technicians go through 160 hours of training, including coursework from Purdue University and hands-on simulations at Orkin’s 30,000-square-foot facility in Atlanta, Georgia.

Orkin uses an integrated pest management approach (called A.I.M.) with the goal of causing the least possible harm to people, property and the environment. Every Orkin visit includes assessment of the situation, the implementation of specific, science-driven solutions and the monitoring of pest activity to ensure the control technique is working.

How does Orkin work?

To find out if Orkin can help with your pest problem and to get an estimate, you can call Orkin or fill out a form online to be contacted by a company specialist. Orkin may give you a price over the phone or visit your home for an inspection.

Orkin uses a three-step pest control process, which it refers to as A.I.M.: assessment, implementation and monitoring. An Orkin technician starts by inspecting your property. They then work with you to come up with a protection program, choosing tools, technology and products that have the lowest environmental impact. After treatment, Orkin monitors results and continues to check for pest activity.

Orkin services come with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you choose a treatment plan and pests come back between treatment dates, Orkin returns at no extra charge. And if Orkin can’t solve your pest problem, it refunds your last payment. Orkin also promises to respond to customers within two hours and have someone at your property within 24 hours.

Orkin price

Orkin determines pest control pricing based on a customer’s home, type of pests and other factors. The best way to get a quote for your specific situation is to contact your local Orkin branch. Getting a quote is free and comes with no obligations.

For example, we requested a quote for an annual pest control plan for a three-bedroom home in Tulsa, Oklahoma, that needed roach control. We received an estimate of two $195 payments over two months, followed by 10 more monthly payments of $48. That’s an annual total of $870.

    I had a lot of mice and it was a problem I never had in this house before, even though I've got woods right behind me. But it got to the point where it was something I couldn't control. I had to bring somebody in to deal with the problem. I used to be a commercial property manager and I had used Orkin in the past as well as a couple of other companies. I decided to use Orkin and they did a very thorough job of it. The mouse problem was eliminated and I was very pleased.

    I had the same tech for the first several instances that they were here, and there have been different techs since then. They've done work on the exterior of the house and they haven't done any work on the inside of the house recently. But they've all been very professional and they communicate well, especially the first fellow that I had who came out and really helped solve the mouse problem. I've also always gotten text messages to confirm appointments, which I appreciate. And the little bit of contact I had with any office staff was positive as well.

      Orkin Pest Control's tech came and explained to me everything, the process with the first time and the second time, and how long it would take to come back again to do it one more time. I'm pleased with the visit with him. Also, the experience we have with talking to Orkin and making the appointments have been good. The problem we have in my house was just black little ants. We haven't seen much anymore, just one here and there. I haven't been able to see much ants like I used to inside or outside. My daughter sees spiders ones here and there in her house, but not like she used to. It’s working out already with the product.

      We recommended Orkin with some of the neighbors who ask when they see the vehicle up there. Two neighbors down from me and across the street have problems with the black ants as well. I told them that the first time that the guy came over, we would see some activity. He came in the second time, and we haven't seen much activity anymore. I asked the guy to give me a couple of cards, so that's what I hand over to the neighbors.

      I get the same guy for the regular service. He was good. He explained everything to me. He did the treatment and said I should have an inspector out. So, I had an inspection done, and he told me that my attic needed to be re-insulated, that the insulation in there had feces in it, and that was toxic. So, he gave me a bid on clearing the whole ceiling out and re-insulating it. It was 18,000. It seems a little high. So I decided to clean it out myself, remove the insulation, and vacuum. It reduced the bid to 13,000. So, we saved a little money there. But 13,000 still seemed a little high. So, I continued working on it and reinsulated it myself.

      On the regular service, Orkin comes out and they'll go after the roaches and the spiders on the outside. They make sure everything is good inside and out. One time, they will go after more or less the roaches, and then another time will go against the outside stuff, like spiders and vermin. I had a rat problem and we've pretty much taken care of that. The service guys always come out and they are pretty friendly. They explain things to me, and we make a plan of attack.

      When I started out with Orkin, I had beds bugs, and they got rid of that for me. Now, if I got spiders, I'll tell them and then they'll spray accordingly in the areas that need it inside and out. There's a certain part of the spring where the spiderwebs are all around the house. Orkin will go through it, and they'll get rid of all of the spider webs while they're spraying, too. Their guy goes from second floor to the basement. The guy who comes out does a really good job, but they had one guy that came here and all he did was outside and he left. I asked what about the inside because that was supposed to be part of the deal. They said, this other guy was doing a fallacious job. Other than that, I had no problem at all with the reps at Orkin. They send me a note and a text, and I’ll set myself around it.

      My son has a fear of flying stuff like wasps and every once in a while, he'll get a wasp in his room. We just can't figure out where it's coming from. So, I just have the guy come, pull the curtains back and spray up top to see if that does it, and sometimes it's all right. I had one yellow jacket nest, and I showed them where it was. He sprayed it up there and I haven't had problems with them any more either.

      Orkin does a great job. I only use the service four times a year, and they did the first one in spring about three weeks ago. The tech sprayed all around the house and around my garage. I've had the same guy for years, and we have a good relationship. I have the schedule set, and Orkin sends me a text a couple of days ahead of time. If I have to change it, I let them know, but I never have to change it. Most of the time, when I'm working, I'm not even home. I trust them with everything they do, so I have no issues whatsoever. But the last time, I happened to be home when the tech came.

      Since I started with Orkin, the pest activity has been a lot less than what it was. I started using them when I had a bee infestation, and I just stayed with it. I've never had any bees since then. The bees actually came into the house, and that's the only time they ever had to come inside the house. Other than that, it's all outside spraying. Orkin takes care of all the other bugs, too. I have a direct debit, so the payment comes right out of my account. I've always been happy with Orkin, and I've referred them to other customers.

      We have some really weird bugs out here. I called out Orkin. We have 2.5 acres, and they couldn't get it any closer. They aren't the cleanest people, but I never had a problem before. They treated for their cockroaches, and rather than kill them, they ran them over to my house. So, I immediately called. I occasionally see something, but for the most part, they've wiped it out. I would recommend them just on their employees alone. They're very polite and helpful when I have concerns.

      I contacted Orkin about six months ago and for six months they sprayed my whole house. No results at all!!! In fact it almost seemed like the pest problem was increasing. It was as if the chemical they were using was attaching more pest. It was almost as if nothing was being done. So I went to Amazon and looked up the most strongest residential professional grade pesticide. The product promised results in 24 hours. We sprayed it and put down the Gel bait. It Work!!! By the end of the week No pest!!! So do your research before you pay money monthly for a service that doesn't work. I would have put zero but one star is the lowest. My review is based on the emotional stress it cause my family. No one wants a pest problem. You can't invite over guest because it is embarrassing especially seeing the pest crawl on the guest. You can't leave anything out at all not even for a minute. It was a terrible experience.

      I received a text that Orkin was coming to my house to check in my bat traps. I told them somebody already did. They said they would cancel my appointment on Tuesday. July 30 well they didn’t. I was at work. They sent a technician to my house. I have that technician‘s name. I was not home. I never received a call to allow them to enter my home. This person went through my gate to my driveway to the next gate to my backyard and enter my private property without my permission on me being home.

      I have pets that have access to my backyard through a door that allows them to go in and out this person has no right to enter my home without me being there on my consent. If my dog had been out in my backyard at that time they would’ve went out to the gate. Do not trust this company because they will not communicate with you when they are coming. I will never do business with them again. I have asked them to give me a call and they keep avoiding me. Be wary because they will send people to your house without you even knowing about it.

      I have a wonderful Orkin person named Oscar, who has been a total genius about everything. I had these tiny ants in my bathroom and couldn't get rid of them, even after spraying. He told me to spray some Windex on my counters and floors because they don't like that. And it was the first thing that worked. So, I didn't have to have Oscar come into the house. He’s good outside, getting rid of the spiders. He's friendly and nice, and every time he comes, he solves every problem and notices things. Everybody from Orkin who has come out here has been good. I've had a lot of pesticide services before Orkin, and every one of them has been a problem. Orkin’s just been great and I'm happy.

      Orkin Pest Control's service is okay. A gentleman called me and said that the guy who normally comes to my house was on leave and he would come and spray the exterior of my home and in the garage. He removed the sticky tape, but didn't put new ones down. That was weird. The other guy would take the old ones and put the new ones down. But he just picked them up and he was gone. The other guy was no problem. He was good and super communicative. However, I'll probably change soon because the price is too high. I had several guys come to my door trying to solicit business and they're $35 a month which is way cheaper.

      I contacted Orkin's for the rat issue, they came and put very small bait. I put the camera and there was only one big rat and asked them to put the bigger bait. They told me about more charges for that, and later one sent a specialist, he came and give the price of 9k, 13k, 20k as said no rat or mice in the house, but several squirrels. Since I saw in my camera, went to Menards, spent $7 for the bigger bait, caught the rat and story finished. Now Orkins are harassing me for money and put it on the collection.

      Was an Orkin customer from July 1983 until a few years ago, then did not receive 'renewal' notice, I did not remember to call them and they terminated service. Last year I realized I'd not seen them, called, said I'd not wanted to cancel service and wanted to resume my contract. They came out but did NOT resume the contract; when I called recently it was very difficult to get in touch w/ my local Orkin, they've centralized their calling and what a problem THAT caused in itself - A woman told me that I am no longer a customer and that I'd not been seen in several years. I had to INSIST that I WAS seen, last year. She My finally found that information and agreed that yes, I was correct - but said I'd not been added back as a customer. I AGAIN explained what had happened and made an appointment, thinking I was resuming the situation I'd had since July 1983: an annual inspection with the option of any work necessary.

      Two men came out and did a hard sell for a $3,000.00, 5-year contract. I considered that, then called the office and said no, I wanted exactly what I'd had since 1983: an annual checkup, and it had not cost $600.00 per year. Spoke with Jimmy, who actually seemed knowledgeable, caring and reasonable. He said he would relist me as a customer, for the annual inspections, and said that someone would be here today between 8 and 10 a.m. A few days ago the initial pair of men showed up - unscheduled - planning to have me sign the contract they'd shown me a couple of weeks ago. My husband said no, that we wanted the kind of service I'd had since 1983, and we had an appointment for it to begin. These men did not know anything about that.

      It is now 10:23 a.m., no one has appeared, no one has even called, and apparently I did not keep Jimmy's direct number so I am anticipating another serious runaround in trying to contact anyone who can actually speak knowledgeable about this. I am so not happy. For so many years, Orkin used to be easy to reach and so responsive. I suspect the 'reorganization' has seriously affected that.

      Company is get with the service they offer. They really need to go back to the starting board and figure out how to stay on the same page with the service workers. The service is good and the service I had works but whatever system fall in after service is given could be much better.

      My experience with Orkin was, mostly, good. We have always had them. They come on time. They do their job. They're very responsible and respectful, and then they leave. The guy who came out recently was a gentleman, and he came in and did his job. He was great.

      If I could give 0 stars I would. They sprayed for mosquitoes 2X and it did not work. We still have tons of mosquitoes and numerous dead honey bees. They were to give me a refund but that never happened and no one ever calls back.

      Hi CB, thank you for bringing this to our attention. We sincerely apologize for your experience and understand how frustrating it must be to continue dealing with mosquitoes after service, as well as your concern regarding the impact on honey bees.

      This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide. Additionally, we regret that you have not received a follow-up regarding your refund request or a return call—this falls short of our commitment to responsive and reliable customer care. Thank you for your feedback—it will help us improve our service.

      I went with Orkin because they got here the fastest. I had went the week before to New York, and I stayed in Hilton hotel, and they had bed bugs. So, I had got bit up, and I went to urgent care, and I left the hotel, but I washed my clothes, bombed my car, but I was so nervous. I wanted to make sure I did not bring anything in my house with my children. Everything's been going great since Orkin came out. When their guy came, he went through the house thoroughly. He said there was no sign and if I do see a sign, he told me to just call them back. I have not seen anything. Orkin's price was reasonable. I thought I had it, so I thought I was gonna spend thousands of dollars. I only spent $120.

      My experience with Orkin Pest Control has been good so far. The original guy that sold me the product didn't inform me 100% about what I needed to have done. The process that Orkin put in did not work to the best of its ability. Not until later, when I had a reoccurrence of the issue, did the next person come in and say, “In order to do this, you have to remove everything and mitigate it all.” So, my current experience with Orkin is better than my past, but it cost me a lot of money to find all this out.

      Orkin has been treating our property for over a year or two. The guy who has been coming out has been doing a good job. We had a bee issue. I now haven't seen any. I would refer Orkin. They're good.
