What is Fox Pest Control?

Fox Pest Control was founded in 2012 by brothers-in-law Mike Romney and Bryant White. Since then, the pest control company has grown to include 50 locally owned branches and helped more than 50,000 customers get rid of various pests.

Fox Pest Control offers several benefits, including a free inspection and cost estimate. You can get same-day service if you call before 2 p.m., and evening and weekend appointments are available for no extra charge.

How does Fox Pest Control work?

You can start with Fox Pest Control by getting a complimentary visit to determine what types of services your home needs and how much it will cost you. While one-time services are available, the company primarily advertises its Home Protection Plan, a monthly subscription service that provides recurring treatments for year-round protection.

Fox Pest Control offers three plan options: Home Protection, Yard Enjoyment and Termite Defense. You can purchase one plan or combine multiple plans for a discount.

If you have issues between your scheduled visits, Fox Pest Control will return to treat your home again at no additional cost.

Fox Pest Control mostly focuses these efforts through its Home Protection Plan, which includes specific treatments to handle pests as they appear each season:

  • Spring: This is when many bugs multiply both inside and outside the home. Your exterminator treats around your home’s doors and windows and under siding using a protective liquid and granular barrier. They also treat crawl spaces, attics and the inside of wall voids. Finally, they remove all spiderwebs from your first floor.
  • Summer: Your technician treats your home’s exterior with a perimeter spray around windows and doors and granular baits in mulch beds. This adds continuous protection against crawling bugs. They also inspect for bee and wasp nests and treat them if found and remove any new spiderwebs.
  • Autumn: Your exterminator performs another exterior treatment, protecting your home from crawling insects looking to use your home as a winter shelter. Spiderwebs are removed again.
  • Winter: Your technician inspects and treats all cracks and crevices around your kitchen and bathrooms. They inspect for rodent infestations and take steps to keep them from entering your home. Technicians also look at basements and garages for signs of termites. At the end of the visit, you get a written report to help you protect against pests between visits.

Fox Pest Control cost

Fox Pest Control doesn’t list its prices for pest control online. According to the company, each home situation is unique, so it customizes costs for your home’s specific needs. Fox Pest Control offers free inspections and estimates, which can help you understand the expense before committing.

Fox Pest Control doesn’t charge extra for additional home treatments if you have pest problems between regularly scheduled visits on your Home Protection Plan. If it can’t resolve your issue after three treatments, the company will refund you your last monthly subscription fee.

    They came here in June and sprayed but the spiders and other insects went rapid. I called and they send another technician that same day. He was very friendly and redid the spraying and also did a powder treatment that had never been done before. This worked. I now have no insects at night on my deck and the spiders are gone. The only thing I do not like about this company is that they just don't charge you the 3 times a year they come here but charge you $80.00 a month. If it weren't for that they would have gotten a 5 star from me.

      Fox Pest Control has generally provided good service and value; however, recently they have changed the bait in the bait stations for the field mice issue I have and it appears that the mice are NOT taking the bait but still leaving their presence in the house. We need to relook at this current bait, which is a neural toxin versus the previous bait, which seemed more effective at reducing the presence of the mice. Also, it has become very difficult to reach someone by phone.

      The call appears to be routed to a call center in Utah, but recently I have been put on hold for over 15 minutes before someone comes on the line or I hang up. Contacting them through the client portal has not worked as well. I continue to use Fox, and recently added yard spraying for ticks, fleas and mosquitoes, so I have not given up on them yet, but I do need to see some improvement on the reduction of the mice in the house for me to continue with them. The technician appear very knowledgeable, professional, and competent but the results appears to getting worse or staying the same.

      Fox Pest Control is an excellent company. The technicians text me when they are coming with an approximate time, they text me when in the driveway. When I go outside to talk to them, I am told exactly what they will be doing, if I need to stay inside for a certain amount of time and informed when they are finished. They are very friendly and extremely professional. I forgot to mention about the bees but the technician saw them and took care of that issue as well. I have had no pests coming inside the house from outside.

      We had Just moved into our newly renovated house we are purchasing. After about a month we still seeing ants in the kitchen near the sink and around the cupboards. In the living room at the front door there was ant highway going behind and on the loveseat. Plus we had sink bugs getting in around the windows. It was way out of control. We tried to take care of it ourselves. Didn't work. We called Fox Pest Control and they had a very courteous friendly technician at our house the next day.

      Colin the tech inspected the house inside and out. He then explained the problem with the Ants, he said that when the House was renovated they removed 2 trees and bushes around the house. He told us that ant colonies like to gather around the roots. And the removal stirred up the ants they came in the house. The Stink bugs squeeze through the window frames and are a annoying nuisance. Colin explained what he was going to do and started treating the house right away. He wanted to know where all we see the pest. He spayed and used a gel bait that would help destroy the nests. He treated around the doors and windows. Outside he surrounded the house, spending a pebble powder. He did a great job.

      The price Fox charged for the yearly plan was very reasonable. It includes several treatments through the year. It's Been two weeks and all the pest are gone. I recommend Fox Pest control. Colin the tech they sent was very Professional, thorough, caring and explained everything in full detail. We are very happy with service we received. Fox is a great company.

      I live in a cedar covered townhouse and I hired FOX to try to eliminate so much chewing of the wood they do, especially in the spring. I called for a special visit to try to get a jump on them as soon as I saw activity, and FOX answered. They immediately set up a visit later that week at my request. Cody, my technician, listened to what I had to tell him and treated the areas where activity was seen. It's been cool last couple weeks so the bees are not quite as active now, but as soon as it warms up, they'll be at it again. Hopefully, we've made progress.

      I have had this service for 2 years now. Initially I signed up for a contract because it was cheaper than having the one time service fee. The first few months were good. Sadly, the level of service didn’t last and has only gotten worse. The tech comes and barely does anything. You need to micromanage them. Even after being clear in what issues need to be targeted, they just do whatever. I mean it’s all on camera. Everyone has a Ring camera these days so you’d think they would actually show up and do their job. Recently my service was due, I explained that we had been seeing yellow jackets and that ants needed to be targeted and where specifically. Of course they didn’t listen, said they didn’t find any bees and didn't bother to treat for ants in the locations where I said the ants were. Next day I got stung, there were tons of bees in between my decking. How did they miss that?

      Called customer service. Was told I would receive a call back within an hour. No call back. Called back 2 hours later. Was told a manager would call me back sometime after 12 pm (this was at 10:15 am). No one ever called me. Tech came back out found the bees and treated. He told me he would service the ants. I called him back and he said he was sorry he forgot to treat for ants and that it was his fault and he would have someone come back out immediately to do so. That was 4 days ago and no one’s come back or called to schedule something. So I guess I now have to call back again. They only service the home quarterly $80 a month for you to have to tell them how to do their job. But they don’t mind calling you to try to sell you some more stuff or bother your neighbors and try to get them to sign up using you as a sales tactic without your permission.

      Yasuf **- the woman that came to spray around my house, was excellent. I have a log home and the carpenter bees are very bad, she took care of them and showed me where carpenter ants were eating away the wood on the back deck. She was very knowledgeable about her work.

      We signed up for the quarterly service with FOX Pest Control a year ago. We are so happy we did. They have excellent customer service. Easy to get an appointment. We absolutely love our guy, Cody. He’s very professional, knowledgeable and explains everything he’s going to do. Cody goes the extra mile to make sure we are taken care of. Highly recommend FOX Pest Control.

      The only reason I didn't put 5 stars is that we just started and had only one service. So far, the salesperson Bruno and service technician Orion have been polite, professional and worked in a timely manner. I would recommend this company.
