    Orkin is great, I am being updated so I know when my service will be done, no complaints, bugs and and ants are gone. This is want I wanted and why I called. Every room including my basement and garage storage are checked, a complete check of the whole house inside and out is carried out at each visit.

    Needed a perimeter check for entry points for rodents as I have them in my attic. Not only were lies told about how they’re getting in, but a laundry list of exaggerated embellishments were told about what else needs to be done to my attic as well as other parts of my home, none of which have anything to do with rodents but the biggest lie told was the cost. $23,000….I KNEW from the moment that was thrown out there, something wasn’t right. I asked for a detailed breakdown sent to me. 'Cause I wanted to do my own research as well as poll multiple different highly rated companies to check out the same areas.

    One of the lies told to me by Orkin was that all my insulation in my attic was black and needed to be completely replaced as it’s a huge hazard. As well as my can lights are a fire hazard. So not only were the pictures that orkin took of my insulation NOT black (not sure if he’s aware that he also sent me the pictures of his lies) but every single company that came to give an estimate said there isn’t much black and even if there was, it’s perfectly normal and expected. They did offer actual reasons why some parts of our attic in our home and above our garage could benefit from blown in insulation (was given two diff estimates from each company as they all said my attic above my garage didn’t need it). Something orkin failed to offer as well as the insane price difference. Oh and my can lights are not a fire hazard, per every other company.

    Every estimate from these various companies that have 4.7-5.0 ratings, each company having thousands of reviews. $3,000-$5,200 price tag. Some included a military discount (orkin would never) also was told that orkin provides a payment plan “unlike other companies.” I wanted to laugh at that cause I’ve not come across 1 company that doesn’t offer a payment plan. Not only do these companies provide payment plans. They’re actually interest free for the first 12 months.

    When we asked if orkin could just take care of the entry points for rodents, as that’s why we called in the first place, we got push back in the sense that “yeah we could but you REALLY need to take care of these others things” first of all. Don't rush me and tell me what I need to do without doing research 'cause everything that was thrown at us were red flags and we definitely wanted time to look into it. I’ve had orkin for years to do bimonthly pest control but after this experience, I’m canceling. They raised their prices anyways without explanation and when I asked, the excuses made zero sense. They might as well of just said “'cause we wanted to, we want more money from you” 'cause the excuses weren’t adding up. I do not recommend this company. However I do love Nate, he was a great technician and our dog loved him. If he ever goes to a diff company or starts his own. I’d love for him to reach out.

    We have used Orkin for about 4 years. I do believe that it has helped keep bugs away or kills them so they do not get into the house. The last person to come out did a great job of taking the time to really spread the poisons. A few times they have come out and barely done much. But at least we have not had to purchase different sprays, etc. to kill bugs.

    Orkin does a great job! Bugs, mice and squirrels. They replaced all of our insulation and sealed all entry points. Now squirrels can’t get in. Also, replacing the insulation with insulation saturated with boric acid means no bugs in the attic ever again and that means fewer bugs inside. I’m very happy with their service. We do have a spider issue but they come out and spray and it lasts for 3 months. Highly recommend.

    I love Orkin. I recommend them to anyone and everyone that asks. They always let me know when they're coming in advance. They send a week notice, another notice a couple of days out and a text message when they're on their way. If they feel they're gonna run late, they give me a heads up. I have the numbers for my Orkin techs that I've had since living here and my past Orkin tech before moving where I am now. Whether it's just a simple pest control or a big job, they've been nothing but communicative and timely. If I'm not gonna be home, I let them know to feel free to enter. I've been doing that since I moved here. They did a pre-extermination for me before I moved in and I gave them the code.

    We had some black widow issues and they got rid of that. There was a fire hazard issue in the attic. They took care of that for me as well. They did a fabulous job. They walked me through the process before we even had it done. They said, "If you have any questions about it, let us know. These are what needs to happen. These are optional." They are very clear and concise. They care about you and your home. They also keep an eye out on my dogs. They would say, "Bring them inside real quick. We're about to spray." They are willing to answer any questions that I have. They understand that not everybody are experts like they are. The folks in the office are great too. Everybody communicates well. I never have to repeat myself. They remind me with each of the bills I get whether email or video mail and I don't bother. I could log in and pay, but I prefer to call them. They tolerate me lovingly. They take any concerns I have seriously and act on them promptly.

    I feel comfortable with Orkin Pest Control. I've always had them. There are other people here that get other people come and spray their house and outside, and charge a lot less. But I've been with Orkin for so long that it's like a sin to go with somebody else. In Virginia, Orkin always had the same person come and spray my house. He became a regular, "Hey." We knew who he was and when he was coming. Here in Florida is a different. I've been here for three years and I've had three different people come and spray my house, which doesn't make me feel comfortable with Orkin in Florida.

    The pest control outside, when they come and check for the traps that they put outside, would be a 0. We never see them. I know it's every three months that they're supposed to come to visit. But I called Orkin and complained 'cause I had it in my camera where one of the workers just came and looked around. I had him in my camera. I said, "I have him recorded. He didn't do anything. He didn't even at least pull one of the traps and look at it." But inside spraying would have the highest mark. The three people that come would do everything they were supposed to.

    Orkin usually comes out about once every other month. Every now and then, I'll have a little scare or a question or some random bug I have no knowledge about. I just recently found out our tech that we've had for the last couple of years no longer works with Orkin, which kind of made me a little sad. We've only had two techs in the entire time we've been with Orkin. So, it's always a little sappy when it's somebody new. You gotta retell the stories of the things you've been through.

    We originally signed up with Orkin because we had bed bug issues. They were able to make my world and my three kiddos' world safer for us. It only took like a month. We had to do all the preparation work for a couple weeks. Then they came in for the first initial find, gave us a couple of weeks to get it all together and get everything prepped, and then they came out, heat-treated, and then followed behind with the chemicals.

I called my Orkin lady and asked what we should do. She said, "Do not bring your luggage inside the house. I will make a trip and spray all of your luggage."

    Caesar is my technician, and he is very professional and good at what he does. I'm not having any more problems in the past couple of months. It took about four visits before I started to see a big reduction, and I hardly see any cockroaches now. It took about six months to really get it under control. Now, I see one or two occasionally, but evidently, with the chemical they use, the cockroaches stay as babies so they can't reproduce anymore. I'd like Orkin to keep up doing the great job they've been doing. They're always accommodating if I have to miss an appointment, and they reschedule me at my convenience.

    We've been using Orkin's services for about two years, and I would recommend them. They're very good. I have an old farmhouse, and the service depends on what my need is, but it's more for catching the field mice that get into the house. They've also handled stinkbugs, ants, flies, and bees for me. They spray inside and outside and put the traps down. One thing I can't stand is the sticky traps that people use. They call them humane, but I don't think it's very humane to watch a little mouse starve to death. The snap trap, done in a second, is more humane to me. Needless to say, I'm fine with whatever the professionals use. Overall, I love Orkin as well as my regular guy who comes, Henry. Even when he has a substitute when he's on vacation, the guy's gone above and beyond for me. They visit every six weeks, and I'm happy with my service.

    I have been a customer of Orkin for a bit over a year now after they bought out my previous provided. As for the actual service provided, I am very pleased. Every service person who has come to my home has always been punctual and very polite. So, I have no problem with the actual service. My problem is on the administrative side of the house. The business practice is to pay at the time of service unless on a yearly pay or auto-pay. I have no issue with this system if it worked, which it doesn't...

    My last service was done on Jan 8, 2024, and I paid the tech with a check. On Jan 16, 2024 I get a bill from Orkin stating the amount due with no indication of monies received. I contacted the local office and was told the bill originated from the home office. With the statement that the check was deposited in the local office on Jan 15, 2024! I can accept that. However, in this day and age of so much business being conducted electronically why isn't the payment logged electronically as well? I pay my bills on time and don't appreciate getting a bill showing that I owe money when in fact I don't having paid at time of service.

    Then I have to track down my payment to ensure it wasn't lost. Several months back the situation was the tech didn't turn the check in for over 30 days from date of service and Orkin wanted another check from me! I think Orkin needs to take a hard look at their administrative practices before they chase their customers away.

Those payments were to begin AFTER the initial contract had been fulfilled. I have been charged this additional $50 per month fee since December 2022. Despite a bbb complaint in the Spring of 2023 where they agreed to honor the original contract, we were credited just $100 and were immediately sent the regular bi-monthly bills. This is a blatant breach of contract. It is now January of 2024. I still have bed bugs. So I told them I would not be paying the additional contract until the first was completed.

    The tech that Orkin Pest Control usually sends out to my house is super nice. He would come in, make chit chat, and spray my house very thoroughly. He would always ask if I've had any issues since my last treatment, or areas of concern. In my last visit, I reported, “No.” Did his thing. Wished me happy holidays. Briefly spoke about upcoming travel plans. Told him safe travels. Great service. If I had questions, he was always happy to help. However, Orkin has me on a once-every-other-month schedule, and I'm not happy about it. And they said if I want them to come in between, I have to call and make those appointments. But they charge me monthly, so why can't they just send someone out monthly? Why is it on me to have to call and schedule it?

    The reason I hired Orkin over other cheaper pest control services was because Orkin, at least on their website, said that if there was a problem area, like gaping, that they could close up gaps where bugs would enter from. And I thought that that was an issue in my condo. Since having them out, according to technicians who don't do what I wanted them to do, which is close up any gaps in ceiling, around windows or doors that the bugs might get in through, so I’m not pleased with that aspect of it. I said, “Well, if y'all don't do it and other places don't do it, I might as well be with the cheaper option. But the spraying that they do seems to kill the bugs when they come in. But ideally, I'd rather them keep the bugs from coming in. Go with a competitor that's cheaper.

I tried to kill it with a shovel. I called Orkin. The guy came. He explained to me everything that he was doing. He was showing me where we could prevent it from happening again, things that we need to fix and stuff to look out for. He explained to us that rats were territorial, so it's rare that you have a whole bunch of them without it being an infestation. There was a part in our house where it seemed like there was an opening. He said, “This is the primary area you need to fix.”

    He also told us, "If you would put traps down, put traps near the water." He also told us they may leave the house and come back to eat. He also told us that they get memory of the layout of the house. They all travel around the house to try and get a memorized layout of it.

So, I told Orkin, “I just want y'all to call me and give me a heads-up so that I can get into the unit that's not there because I need both of them done at the same time.”

    When I ended up getting the last gentleman that assisted me, we were there. With the stuff that he did, I never saw anybody put out something to see where traffic was. We were doing exterior spray as well in addition to interior. I'll refer Orkin. I used them some years ago on a property I had ant infestation and they cured that. My mom uses Orkin now in Newnan.

He addressed any issues I've had. He told me, “If you see them within 24 hours, call me again and I'll come back out and retreat again. We'll keep retreating at no charge until it's rectified.” So I've been very happy with that. I've had a problem in the past with spiders invading the house and I called him to come back out.

    When I write the check out, I always give it to the technician. I know he turns it in because usually, it clears my bank within five days. Then within three weeks, I'll get another bill from out of state saying that I haven't paid my bill. So I call the Orkin office, which they're very sweet. The girls are great down there. I'll tell them I've got another bill. But it's not coming from the office. It's coming from whoever does the main bookkeeping out of state. That's where the glitch is and it's annoying because even though I know I paid it, I wanna get it rectified because it creates stress. But it has nothing to do with Orkin's service or people.

    Orkin has done 2 treatments on my home and I’ve paid 2 payments (in full). I just received a bill in the mail that states I’m 60 days overdue. An even more stupid thing is that Orkin has my credit card on file. I’m guessing this will go on my credit report as a late payment. Now I’m going to have to spend time on the phone and trusting them to delete my card # so I can go with another exterminator who’s does correct billing.

    I contracted with Orkin for rodent control. I paid to have the sill plate in my crawl insulation removed, the area cleaned, sanitized, new insulation installed and the entry excluded. A secondary service checked behind them to find the work wasn't satisfactory. An Orkin rep revisited my home today and thus far is taking responsibility for rectifying the situation. He was responsive and attentive so I hope we can get this right this time.

    We had an infestation of fleas and it was so bad, Orkin came out several times without additional charge. That meant the world to me because they said, “We are going to treat this till it's done.” I had two different representatives from them who treated the yard and they were both outstanding. Once a date is scheduled, there's a lot of coordination that goes with it, so we appreciate that they stick to their schedule, too. But the payment is extremely confusing. It shows that I owe an amount. But I thought I already paid. It turned out something like 52.50 gets pulled out every month. I know how much each treatment is when they come out because I'm set up on one of their programs. But it's very hard to track. The last time I went on the website, I wasn't able to make sense of the finances. But this has nothing to do with the follow through, the people who come out and the products.

    The apt complex we live in has a contract with another company. I am not impressed with them. They do very little. The exterminator from Orkin does a much better job. He takes the time to explain things to me...what I should and shouldn't do. He treats a far larger area than the other company does. I am still seeing roaches, but more dead than alive. I have had to change the glue traps that he left with me because they get crowded. He does a thorough job. The only places I see roaches is around the kitchen sink and on the counters.

But from a scheduling in a service perspective, they're fantastic. Dan texts me to say that he is coming. I get notifications before they show up. If I have any issue with it, I can reschedule.

    I have a Holly tree out in my yard and my neighbor has a tree that has termites in it. I wanted my Holly tree to be protected from termites and Orkin did a wonderful job. They said it was unusual what I wanted but they took care of it. They're spraying for it every other month and put termite protection around the house and the garage. But when they come out to do my house for the bugs, they will spray for the termites around the tree. This was a special request and it’s now included with my package.

    I talk to my Orkin specialist when he's here every month and when I called her and she came out to take care of the termites, she said they were only responsible for termites but they are responsible for all pests on my property now because I have the complete package. I started out with just the insects in the house and then I got puppies. I have them spray for fleas and ticks in the yard and I have termite protection now. There is nothing I don't have with Orkin. Plus, I'm still paying the price that I paid 10 years ago. It’s amazing. Once you're locked in with them, they don't raise their rate, which I found interesting.

    I would have no problem recommending Orkin though for a while, I was having problems with them. My husband works overseas and works a different time and I try to stay up with him. And my daughter lives in Texas and I live in her time zone. So sometimes I get up early in the morning and sometimes I stay up late at night. It fluctuates. Sometimes, Orkin was out at 8 o'clock in the morning and that didn't work because I was up till 3 o'clock in the morning. But they've gotten good working with me about the time. If I text the tech and say 8 o'clock in the morning is not gonna work if he needs to get in the house and that I need him to show up a little later, he’s good at showing up later in the afternoon.

    Over the years, Orkin has overcharged me for services I have paid them to fix. Work that they had initially done incorrectly, one time they even put a vapor barrier right over top of the previous one, which they had laid down originally, without removing/cleaning the previous one, just proceeded to put it right over top of previous stuff. Then they wanted to charge me more money to fix the problem(that I had just paid to have fixed) because it was done wrong. I feel they took advantage of me because I lived out of State, and the house was a rental.

    I finally got tired of getting taken advantage of and got 2 other companies to give me estimate. Both of those estimates were half the Orkin estimate. They then sent another estimate with lower prices, they are the worst. I would have given them a - 5 rating, but I couldn't. The shame is I had put up with this for over 25 years. I finally ended my services only to find out I had double paid this year, and was not given a refund until I asked. I also was told that I could not get a partial refund for the year's service I had already paid, that the service will just end at the end of the year contract. They are unable to offer any refund, since it expires in April, although my service has been cancelled.

    Orkin treats the bug infestation that we have, which was really bad, and they keep doing the outside now to make sure that it doesn't come back. The guy that used to come all the time was really good, but the main office is not. That's what I don't like. They're more greed-driven, whereas the guy who comes said, "No, you don't need all that. All I need to do is this." I said, "Okay. Because the lady said that we had to stay with you guys for a certain amount of time." He said, "No, I decide how long. I look at it and decide it's gonna take a month, two months, or whatever. She doesn't know anything."

    Any time we call the front office, we get a different answer 'cause it's some lady just trying to book more appointments. When the guy comes, he says, "I don't know why she told you that." Even things that aren't related to money, the lady would say, "Oh, no, you don't have to take stuff out of your cabinet. You don't do any of that." When the guy gets here, he'd say, "Yeah, you do. I can't spray." Also, the very first time, the lady said, "Clear everything out," but the guy said, "No, no, no." Because we forgot to, and he said, "On your very first one, you never do because you don't wanna disturb their main home." Clearing everything out should be done until the tech sprays first because he can decide where the home is.

    The bug man has all the knowledge, and the office doesn't, so I wonder, "What's their main job?" They're supposed to luring us in in the first place. They us signed up for packages that we didn't need, and the lady said that the service had to be every single month. We couldn't skip a month, but the guy said, "Yes, you can. All I have to do is put it in it every other month." We're allowed to skip a couple, but the lady won't let us. I don't know if it's always the same lady, but she said we can just cancel service if that's what we want. If we're having a hard time, we just wanna skip one. We're now past the one-year contract, which I thought was stupid, but the bugs are not 100% gone. Every now and then, if we miss a month or two, I'll see one and I'll tell them, "Hey, I need you to spray on the inside again."

He spent three times the amount of time that the other people had done with the exception of the local guy. When he came out the first time, he really went around. Within 10 days, there was a cessation of the bugs and roaches. We also had a bit of a mouse problem and that was immediately lessened. Within three months, we didn't see any mouse. The last two guys that came out were very conscientious. The one we have now is an older gentleman who is very, very attentive. He goes to all three levels of our home.

    Our monthly service with Orkin has been wonderful. The Orkin tech has been very friendly and personable. This last time, he was here less than 15 minutes and that was a concern to me. I guess it only takes a few minutes to spray, especially if you're not spraying inside the house. But that seemed pretty fast. But that was the only thing that was of concern this last spring. Scheduling my service with them has always been great. The pest activity has been good as well. I don't see anything. The only thing we saw recently were those pincher bugs that were popping up. But there were no roaches or ants because we had ants in the upstairs apartment.

    Orkin comes every other month to spray for spiders and bugs, and what I like about them is they don't try and push stuff that people don't need, like for mosquitoes, it was really important for me, and bugs. However, they go up in price, and I'm on a fixed income. Still, my pest control technician, Bill, is phenomenal. He's the guy that comes to do my service all the time, and he's thorough, dedicated and always makes suggestions, like if there's something else for mosquitoes. I did that one time. Bill is the only one that I ever want. I moved a bit further away and asked if he could still be my service guy, and Orkin accommodated that.

    There was one time when Bill wasn't able to do my service and I had someone else. That particular individual wasn't very thorough and didn't do a good job. I've never had any issues other than that one time, and that's been over a couple of years now. Also, the pest activity has been great because I don't have bugs. I'm terrified of spiders. In fact, I was getting ready to call Orkin this week to make sure that they were coming sometime in the next couple weeks. I wanna start something in the basement, but I'm not going down there until Bill comes. Overall, I love Orkin and Bill. If I need to call them, I have them on my phone and customer service is great.

    Orkin Pest Control seemed to meet my needs the best. They are affordable, they do a great job and they're friendly. They come out every other month. But if I had a problem in between visits, they would come out. And the times that I've called when they don't have a scheduled visit, they were usually out within three hours. Like when there was a mouse in one of the traps, they were out almost immediately to take that away.

    They recently came out and put on the booties. They checked all the traps inside the house, sprayed for ants around the windows, and did everything perfectly. After they checked the inside, they sprayed for bugs around the exterior and checked my shed. They knocked down hornets nests inside it, checked the bait feeder things on the outside for the rodents, and we refilled those. They checked back with me to tell me everything they did.

    I think very highly of the representatives because they're professional and thorough. And they never seem rushed. They always had time to answer my questions, they could answer any, showed me what they were doing and told me everything. They explained everything thoroughly, and they would take the time to listen to any concerns. I like the company. I enjoy the representatives and their care and concern.

    We met with Orkin and they outlined a plan to control the mice infestation and other pests. It was expensive, in our opinion, but we decided to do it. The amount of work was remarkable: cleaning out the crawlspace and lining it with new material, placing traps in the house and the attic where the mice were especially bad, installing termite controls around the house exterior, and more. In short order, the problem was controlled, and regular inspections have kept it that way. Money well spent.

    We've been very happy with Orkin. We initially started using them because we were finding ants in our house. We've been using them for several years now, and we don't see many bugs in the house. If we do, we call them and they come right away and take care of it. But scheduling has been a bit of a problem. My wife works from home, so when somebody comes into the house, we need to know in advance that they're coming so that she can make sure she's decent and the house is in condition where she wants people coming in to see it. There have been a good number of occasions where they just show up at the door and say, “I'm here to do your service.” I have to tell them, “You have to come back another day. I need to know when you're coming.” So, I don't think there's coordination between them and their customer service department about letting us know when they're coming in advance.

    Other than that, they're always very nice. The techs who come are polite and friendly. The service is extremely good. They just raised the price per service by $20. But we're willing to pay what we're paying right now as long as they fix this problem with the scheduling.

    I got a couple of days notification that Orkin had a service scheduled. Then I got an alert that they were here. I was at work at my office at the time, then I got a notification that they did just outside service and that they left. But that's something that happens every month or two. It's been pretty easy to schedule a service with them. Any time there's been an issue, I've been able to call them and someone's been able to schedule an intermediate appointment. We've had several technicians and most recently, we've had a woman and she's been fantastic. She was also very personable and knowledgeable. We really appreciated her knowledge about the different seasonal kind of bugs specifically and things to look out for. We have two cats that are indoor only, so her knowledge of fleas was really helpful.

    Also, we had one cockroach inside our house by the door and I left a note on the door for her. She responded with a note that said it was okay and if there were any more that pop up, we should let her know. But when I saw her a couple of months ago for a service when I was home, she let me know that cockroaches tend to show up in cardboard boxes. So, now, my husband and I are very diligent about if we get an Amazon box. We take it out and recycle it really quickly. And we haven't seen any cockroaches aside from that one. Aside from that, we live really close to a creek and, at one point, I kept hearing scurrying and my cats heard it, too. We found out that there was an opening in the vents underneath the house, and a rat had gotten in. So, there was a rat running around under our house. Our Orkin technician was able to get it and there was a dead one under there, too. Since then, we've had no issues.

    Every year that's passed since we got Orkin's service, the flare-ups of ants in the house has drastically reduced and we barely have any now. We also had earwigs in the door frames right in the front of our house and they're gone now. We still get ants in the yard but overall, percentage-wise, bugs has gone down at 70%. But they don't do pest control for wild animals, and we have nutria that occasionally come in our yard. And if your neighbors have wasps or any kind of issues, they can't address that either. Other than that, Orkin's service is affordable, personable, non-intrusive, and accessible.

    I had difficulty with pests so I called Orkin. When they came out, they did an inspection and they saw the pest activity. They prescribed a treatment and I okayed it. Over the course of time, the pest activity has decreased to zero. I know the tech who comes and we chat while he works. I share with him information about what I've seen since the last treatment and he talks to me about what he's doing and answers my questions. It's an amicable and informative visit. I get to see what he's doing and he gets to hear what I'm thinking.

    The only thing is scheduling a service with Orkin can be frustrating. Sometimes, I talk to one person and the techs talk to me. Sometimes, the information is relayed back but not successfully incorporated into the process, so it takes several iterations before a preference of schedule is actually realized. They schedule by sending an email saying, "Hey, it's about time for your next treatment. And this is when our techs will be in the area, so we'd like to bundle you. And here's the day and time. So, yeah, see you then." If you don't like that, you call back and you say, "Hey, not that day." And that works. If you have a preference for a certain time of day, which is what I like, I tell them, "It can't be in the morning. It has to be between this time and this time." It takes a few iterations of the schedule before it shows up that way from the computer or email that they sent. But once it does, it works.

Since then, they've been a regular service. The tech that comes has been very polite. He brushes everything up. He does a good job. They did a really effective job killing everything and they've done a good job keeping up on it. However, for their standard service, they don't offer rodent control for the exterior. I've had to seek other companies to do that for me.

    Orkin Pest Control is reliable and comes on time. They provide a good service. I had it scheduled on a monthly basis, and I like it either the day of or a day before or after, and it has been fine. They send me a notice when they would be here. The tech would let me know, “I'll be there in a half hour.” They would give me the option of changing the time if I needed to it. And they would ask me if I had any problem before they would start the treatment. Three weeks ago was the normal routine. Good experience. I opened my gate, said "Good morning" and she asked if I had any issues, and I said, “No, there are no issues,” or, “I noticed something outside.” And she would take care of it.

    Orkin customer service is very friendly. When I ask them a question, they have the answer to it. The guy that comes to our house is Joe and we have a nickname for him. My daughter calls him Jojo, the bug guy. That guy is probably, by far, the best guy that works in the company. He is very nice, super professional, and he pays very close attention to detail. He's super friendly with my kids, my animals, and everything. He knows what he's doing. He's awesome and I recommend him to anybody that I know. I hope he gets recognition for what he does. Since we had service, the bugs are gone. Orkin, on the whole, is fast, easy, affordable, and efficient. Their website is easy to navigate.

    They're very sociable while they're working. They're kind of in and out, which is what I like. I've had good experience overall. If I need to reschedule, the few times that I need to, they've been very accommodating. My usual pest control agent who comes through is very pleasant and personable. Everybody else is nice, outside of it. The pest activity now is non-existent. It's definitely a huge improvement from my initial appointment with Orkin. Their product is great. It works. Everybody that I've interacted with was very professional and made the experience comfortable.

    I like the service. We've been Orkin customers for many years. I'm sorry that the rate keeps going up and up and up. But I'm perfectly satisfied with it and particularly with the man that they send out to do our service. I'm pleased with my experience. Alex goes above and beyond what he needs to do. One time, we were having trouble with little flies coming out of one of the upstairs bathroom units. He came back on his own time and had purchased some tools so that he could get into that drain and clean it out for us. They never charged us anything extra for it. Another time, we were having a problem with rats, and he found a place outside where he thought they were coming in, and he was able to stuff that with steel wool. We haven't had any more problems.

    Alex has also helped us with things that are not part of his job. We are both elderly and disabled, and if I needed a bathroom light changed that was too high for me to reach, he was quite happy to do it. I am a recent cancer survivor and the whole time that I was going through chemotherapy, he asked about my condition, and he prayed for me. I appreciate that very much.

    I don't schedule the service anymore. Orkin just sends me an email and tells me when he's coming. If that's not a convenient time, then I call them back and then they give me another date and time. We've had roaches the whole time we've lived in this house. But Orkin keeps them under control. The service fee has more than doubled from what we used to pay so I'm not really pleased with that.

    We have had very good luck with Orkin Pest Control. They come, do their job, and are very professional when I talk to them. They have been helpful. They do not try to sell me on new things. They're informative if there is something new, but do not try to push it or be super salesy. They've been very nice. Our first guy was amazing. We had a giant hornet nest the size of my head and he came out and took care of that the same day. They've always been very responsive.

    Orkin Pest Control does an excellent job when they come. I usually try to be here when they come in the timeframe, because I like for them to spray in the garage. I have a screened porch on the back, and I let them spray in there, too. I sometimes have a problem with mice in the garage and he changed all those sticky things for me. He’s a personable tech that Orkin sends. It’s always professional.

    Orkin did a good job. They were courteous and on time. They let us know when they were coming. When the tech came to the door, he greeted me and asked if there were any changes. I said, "No, just normal," and it went well. Orkin was efficient. They used the kind of chemicals that we wanted used, so they didn't harm our pets.

    My pest control guy, Steve, is a real nice guy. Every time he does my service, he asks me if I see any roaches or anything and I would let him know if there's something wrong. Also, their rep, Miss Connie, is nice and very respectful.

    Orkin Pest Control, Kingman, AZ. The company does not stand behind its money-back guarantee. We hired them for a one-time treatment to eradicate spiders from a new home purchase. When I was there a week later, the spiders were not dead. In fact, there were several different species of insects all laughing at me for spending $300 on this one-time service, as did the realtor. "You got taken."

    When the company was contacted, they did not answer the phone, and VM was full. Somehow, they did contact me about a week after my call, and when I described the failure of the treatment, they did offer to come out and re-treat, but I had already hired another company, since their treatment did not work. They did NOT stand by their money-back guarantee, they just wanted to try and make me an "every other month" customer by claiming that one-time treatments aren't very effective. I asked why they offered a money-back guarantee for their $300 service if that was the case? He merely repeated that multiple treatments were needed and I should hire them. I explained I had already hired another company. No refund is forthcoming. The "guarantee" is a lie.

    FYI, they only want to offer every OTHER month service, which is NOT effective (if you read the pest chemical container, it specifies efficacy for "30 days"). Do not recommend hiring this company for pest control. They want the $$, but not the actual job. There are other companies who are actually dedicated to ensuring the customer can live pest-free.

    I was with Orkin for a few years and had a pretty decent experience with them. Scheduling service was good and everybody I talked to and dealt with was nice. They walked through what the plan was like. There were things that I didn't ask for but that may have been partially my fault. I moved and I got a different service. My new next door neighbor has Orkin and I saw them doing things over there like getting out really high cobwebs and things that they didn't do at my place before. I don't know if I was supposed to ask for that or if it's even included. I didn't have any neighbors with pest control services at my old place so I didn't witness it to have anything to compare it to at the time.

    That aside, the Orkin technicians were awesome when I had them. The person who used to come regularly until he had some kind of injury was just very friendly and we were on a first name basis. He would come and play with my dog even. He was nice. I only had one negative experience with Orkin. I needed to switch from every other month to every three months because I did not see the need for their service during the cold weather. I had a very small townhouse and I did not really have issues. It was more of a preventative measure. Orkin gave me a hard time switching and told me “No, you have to wait for the next one.” It was like they were forcing me to do the service every two months or I could not do it at all. They ended up talking to their manager, coming back and saying, “Okay. We'll take care of it.”

    It was like pulling teeth a little bit. I'm not unreasonable. It just wasn't logical or reasonable to demand that you have to have the service every other month, especially when I had it for a couple of years already. Any kind of contract would have been over if there was one even. Other than that, all my other experiences were good. I might have just gotten somebody on the phone who had not had that situation before and they didn't know how to handle it. It could just be a training issue.

    Price-wise, it was pretty high. That's across the board with pest control in general. My townhouse was 1,100 square feet and they were in there for two minutes, spraying. It seemed a lot to be showing out for two seconds of work. But industry standard-wise, it's fair. The service I have now is even more expensive. I have more square footage so I expected that. It's reasonable.
