I've been with Terminix for less than a year and they come out for me once in a quarter for pest control. The technicians have been nice and friendly. Since having the service, the pest activity has been very good.

I have routine service with Terminix and they come out if we have an issue. If we need to reschedule service, it hasn't been a problem thus far. When their techs get here, they've done well. They make sure that they know that we're at our place so that my pets don’t go outside when they're spraying. Overall, I think Terminix is a very good company. It has been great having them.

I've been with Terminix for about a year now. They come out on a regular basis to take care of the insects and things. Their reps have always been very good and very knowledgeable.

I have been using Terminix's service for five years now and when scheduling with them, it's easy. They call me or send me an email and tell me when they're coming. Their technicians, Shannon and Melvin, are both wonderful and very polite. Since their most recent visit, I don't have any pest activity anymore. A long time back, I called their customer service and their reps were very nice too. There was a glitch in the way that I was paying for it but we got that straightened out. Terminix takes care of business and it's not a hassle.

When I originally called Terminix to get service I signed up for a 1 year contract. They told me it would be billed quarterly and that was the end of that. So once December hit I did not call to renew or schedule them to come out or anything of the sort. They kept sending me bills and I called and got the run around and then they told me the branch would contact me and then nothing. Got another bill again called and same thing.
Now it's March and they went and automatically withdraw the money from my bank account. Spoke to someone today and got the same run around. I have not authorized the man to come since October because I knew that was the last of the 3 month contract. What they would do is show up and spray I guess the outside of my apartment and count that as service. I was satisfied until right now. I feel like the 2 times I called to make sure I wasn't being billed should have been enough and for them to go 3 months later and bill me automatically makes no sense to me. If i had been scheduling services or things of that sort I would understand the billing but I did not schedule any services October.

Location of Terminix office: Petaluma, CA. Complaints: unethical staff include: The sales rep **, THOMAS, branch manager Eric **, and Jules **, Region Director. Countless requests made to sales rep Thomas **, he responded that his manager was on board with a solution then no follow up and complete silence to resolve termite issue and charges. Sales rep become unresponsive. Issue lasted and still open since Aug. 15 2018. After several hours, days, calling and locating someone who would take some responsibility; I finally located a region director. Don't let the title fool you.
Region Director failed to speak to his own team prior to calling customer; rejects customer requests for refund due to customer satisfaction issues. Refuses to escalate further up the chain in fear of looking unprofessional, untrained, losing bonuses. I am minority and I believe these people above are discriminatory, quite frankly take advantage of people (my parents) who they think will roll over due to their ability to speak good English. Racism is real and comes in different flavors. I can accept that. For those who can't; this warning is for you to stay away. I've since cancelled my other 3 pests control contracts with Terminix.

Terminix comes out quarterly and my experience with them is always 100%. They spray for both the inside and outside. I’ve had two different techs come out and both of them were excellent. They were friendly and they did a good job. If I wanted anything extra, they would do it. They were all around nice guys. I recommend Terminix to anybody. They’re the best in town.

I’m pleased with Terminix and the service I’ve gotten from them. Each individual who ever came was very courteous, nice and we got along well together. Their customer service has been A-1 too. I’m 90 years old and I don’t go and do much. I’ve been in this house for 62 years and I’ve been through a lot of experiences. I had one experience with termites and that was inside the south side of my garage. The house next door to my garage had a very bad termite experience as well and ate up, practically, one whole back part of their house. I assume that was where the termites came from at that time.
I didn’t have any damage and all I had was the signs of the termites inside my garage. I caught that on time that Terminix could come and do for me what I needed. They had to do a lot of tearing out and putting new lumber in the garage. That happened a few years ago. A while back, I had a problem with ants and it took Terminix a while to find the source of the problem.

The Terminix phone reps go beyond and above. They were very experienced and intelligent. They were able to answer all my questions and reschedule my appointment. Terminix was here on Monday, and I had a very excellent experience. The tech was thorough with his spraying. He was here strictly to do his job and he wasn’t playing around. He was very friendly and he had a beautiful personality. Since my service began with Terminix, I haven't seen any bugs. If there was a problem, I let my representative know. They would come in and solve it. One time, there were a few bugs but they’ve taken care of that. Getting Terminix was a very great decision. They are excellent. They should keep up the good work and continue doing what they’re doing.

I’m satisfied with Terminix. I get four services a year and three of them are outside. I only have to be home one of the four times, and I like that they call me before they’re coming to remind me. I saw their guy one time when he came in to go into the basement to look for termites. He came to the door and introduced himself. He went around and when he was finished, then he handed me a form. And then I get a questionnaire from Terminix asking me to evaluate his service. And many of the times, I’m not home to receive the gentleman. They follow up promptly asking my evaluation and send me questionnaires. Terminix has a very aggressive follow-up program.

Terminix comes out quarterly four times a year and I call them whenever I need them. When they come out, they don’t mind, which is good. They would also give extra stuff. I had two technicians who had come. The first one was Barbara, but she left the company and then, they had Tim for me. He always ask what he will do for me and tries his best. And he does a good job.
There are pests like cockroaches in and out of our home and in the summertime, I have more of these bugs. The service from Terminix is working and if I see more bugs, Tim comes to put some more baits. I’ve been with Terminix for a long time and I don’t have a problem with the quality of their work, but the cost is high. I started with Terminix with $50 each year. And they raise it, which makes me upset. Last year, they tried to charge me $100 and something for a quarter. I then started to shop around and somebody offered $80 each quarter. When I told Terminix that I was going to quit them, their rep offered $80 so I stayed for another year.

I have a regular routine three months service with Terminix. Their technician tells me when he's gonna come. A couple of times, I’ve had them wanna do the service on a Saturday, and I have to reschedule because Saturday is not a day I can have it done. Usually, though, we get a notice on the internet saying that they will be coming on such day. The technician we have been working with has been amazing. His name is Eddie and he's always congenial. He addresses any of my concerns and I'm happy with him. While I'm satisfied with Terminix' service, three months is a little long. They should do it more often. They are a little lax during the hot season that I sometimes have to have help in between if I have a lot of rodents or bugs.

Whenever Terminix comes out for the quarterly service, they call me and schedule day and time before coming. The technician who comes here is very good.

Terminix has been excellent. They usually come quarterly, but most of the time, I can't be at home, so I just have the tech do the outside of the house.

Terminix exterminates the outside of the house for roaches. The tech normally texts with me or emails me two days prior to see if it's a good day or whatever day and time, and then I respond back whether it's good to us or not. And then, he comes on whatever day and asks if he needs to come inside or it's just strictly outside. His name is Robert and he's a very nice gentleman. I didn’t like to see the big roaches and I haven't seen any since the service so it's working. Terminix is doing a good job and I would recommend them.

Terminix comes out and sprays the outside for roaches. For termites, they put down these little blue or green things in the ground. They also spray the inside of the house whenever I need it. For the outside, they come every two months. For the inside, Terminix doesn’t have to come too often because the bugs don’t come when they spray. For the termites, they come out twice a year. Terminix calls to tell me when they’re coming and they’re flexible with the scheduling. Usually, there’s always someone here but if not, they put the treatment on for another day. Also, their techs are nice. They tell me what they’re coming for. Since having the service, once in a while, I have a big waterbug but other than that, the situation in my house has been fantastic.

The people from Terminix are great and are dressed professionally, and that's a really big thing. Their trucks are clean, and that shows they care. They came recently and sprayed the whole inside of the house. They couldn't do much outside because it was raining. We love the technician that comes out all the time. He's the younger guy, and he's really good and conscientious. We have them on a quarterly, and they work around our schedule and call us in advance. Their customer service team over the phone are the same people, and we deal really well with them. Since our service began with Terminix, we rarely see bugs. We're happy with Terminix and we're not gonna change. I'd tell others to start their service with Terminix.

Terminix experience (West Palm Beach, Fl)... Will never use Terminix again... Had German roaches for over two years and for most of that time, had roaches EVERY evening in the kitchen...finally got fed up and told them that I would no longer pay for their service as long as the roach problem persisted... Still can't believe I gave them over 2 years to resolve the issue!
I told the service rep, the local mgr, two local service managers, the national contact that called almost daily when the bill was supposedly "past due" that I was NOT paying for a service that was not working... They continued providing service under those conditions and when the problem was close to being resolved (after approx. 27 months!) I told them I would be willing to resume payments... but I was NOT paying for the time period reflected in the "balance due"... They refused to waive that amount even though they had been told I was not paying. They sent the $268.80 bill to collections. I've never had a bill sent to collections in the 66 years of my life!
We obviously no longer use Terminix and suggest you don't either. What kind of pest control company takes over 2 years to resolve a roach problem? ZERO integrity...didn't even mention the two appointments that managers set up and never showed or the dust treatment that covered all our silverware and utensils in our drawers whenever they treated... Have new service company. No more roach problem. Took 2 treatments.

In the 32 years that I've been with Terminix, I've had no problems at all with the technicians. They're very thorough, and their attention to detail and friendliness are terrific. Every one of them, including the current one, Patrick, is fine. He came out for an in-home spraying for insects recently. He also takes care of some mouse poison in my garage and crawl space.
Something happened at the headquarters, however, so the scheduling was taken out of the hands of the technicians. Now scheduling is done automatically from headquarters, so the technicians cannot tailor the timing of the visits in such a way that they know the schedules of the people that they're spraying for. I live alone and if I'm gone during the day, for instance, they won't be able to get into the house. So I either have to change the appointment or my daily schedule, so I'm home to let them in when they come. Then my particular technician makes the phone call the night before he's coming, and I get a notification in email from the company. I put that on my calendar and then my technician calls the night before to just double-check.
Still, another problem is that I get an email that says I will have a call on such and such date, between the hours of such and such. It says, "You do not need to be home for this service. Just please secure any animals." But that is not true, and I have complained about this almost every time I get a service. I need somebody to be here to let the technician into the house because it's not external spraying only. He sprays around the perimeter of the house, but he also comes inside. I've shown this to Patrick every time, and we chuckle about it. The email communications of the company really need some close attention. It is annoying when year after year, you get communication that is not clear about what's gonna happen.
I don't have any complaints about the pest activity in the house, although I have had ants in my kitchen at a certain time of year. Patrick comes and puts out some little traps and that ceases. It's excellent. Last week, I had two mice in my garage, and the automatic door has some little cracks at the edge where they can get in. That's separate from my house, and Patrick put out some chemicals, and I found the dead mouse on the floor a couple of days after he was here. Overall, I would recommend Terminix. The service, the coverage, and the technician who comes to my house are wonderful.

We have been having quarterly service with Terminix. They took over a company that we've been using for 10 years. The technician who did our office's property before said he would come but never showed up, and quit. Now, we have a regular technician and he has been very good. The overall quality of the service has been okay. He's doing what he's supposed to do. During the summertime, we had a problem with spiders. The property is in a community where pesticide can't be used a lot so the cobweb had to be taken down and I had no problem with him in regards to that. We also had an ant problem where the ants came into the office kitchen, so he came right out and took care of it.

I had Terminix treat Asian beetles and the contractors they sent were courteous and professional. However, they couldn't get the job completed. The issue was happening on the second floor and they couldn't climb a ladder. They came out three times within the three-month period to try to address the problem, but they just couldn't. I then had to repeat to many different departments things regarding cancelling and the cancellation process took a while. But if your issue isn't about Asian beetles and just regular pest, I'm sure Terminix would be fine. I would recommend them.

Tommy does the service for quarterly maintenance and he’s good. That service was perfect and that was my whole reason for choosing Terminix to handle the bedbugs. My grandbabies experienced some bedbugs in May. We called Terminix and when the service technician came, he promised us a follow-up in three different increments – in two weeks, in a month and a little bit thereafter – to see if the bed bugs were gone. In a bed bug situation, they have to take the beds apart and take the clothes out of there. But they didn’t come back for the follow-up. From May to August, they never responded to my phone calls. I think my first phone call was in July. So I was asking them to give me a credit for the month.
Late in August, Tom did show up. He laid down a little piece of sticky sheet on the bed. Then he went into the other bedrooms. He said that it looked like the mattress had a hole in it and that he was going to replace it. But since then, I haven’t heard from him either. My grandbabies haven't complained since August. In fact, I don’t think they really complained since the original time. So I think the chemicals worked. But the service that Terminix had promised, which got me to that contract, was poor. The customer service and the follow-up were poor.
I'm even thinking about going to the Better Business Bureau because Terminix has sent me to the collections even though they told me they were gonna try to prorate my contract. Lately, all I get is somebody from collections who is gonna collect the debt. This is also how Terminix did it before when they got my services. They promised things verbally but didn’t follow up on it. For bedbugs, I won’t recommend them to anyone. Nobody wants to go into a 1,300-dollar contract and not get the proper service. It’s too expensive when Terminix is not doing what they’re supposed to be doing. It’s more than just chemical spraying too. It’s what they say they’re gonna do. I wouldn’t get the bed bug service even if my life depended on it.

Be careful, read fine print, ask questions, get written documents. I canceled one of my services for the winter and explained that I would call back in the summer to sign back up. When I made a call in to have a mouse removed (which I was under the impression would be covered since I still have one of their services) I was not told (until after the service was done) my previously canceled service will be reinstated. So I got charged for a service I didn't authorize. Over 100 dollar charge. When I called in to ask for a refund since I didn't authorize it I was told there's nothing they could do.

The technicians have always been very kind, very helpful and informative. With any kind of questions that I have, they're able to provide information for me. Since they started spraying, everything is starting to come out. But they've told me that whenever they spray, that's usually when you start seeing everything come out, whether dying off or whatnot. But there is not a lot of pest activity. They're like little tiny baby spiders and little grubs. Also, Terminix does offer me that if I see anything within a certain amount of time to always feel free to call them back. Otherwise, the service is regularly scheduled quarterly and they usually just call me two days in advance to let me know when they're gonna be coming out. I like that I don't have to worry about it.

In May 2017, short of two years ago, I unintelligently bought into an attic insulation replacement, rat program and complete termite protection. Over $10,000. paid for the “rat plan." The reason I am writing is that the damage done by the Terminix “rat and insulation" job has caused about $2,000. in roof repair. Water leaking this year, including the estimated interior ceiling damage. A styro-dam, created by Terminix to block a “rat access” to the attic now backs up rainwater under the roof tiles.
The Terminix foam styro product dam has allowed debris to build behind the dam over the last nearly two years. to where it now leaks with interior ceiling damage. No comments on termites in that the reason we bought the termite plan is because the neighbor had termites. We wanted protection and paid $1,500. for this, in addition to the $10,000. “rat plan."

I've had the service with Terminix for a year now and my experience has been fine. Initially, they started doing it at my aunt's home because she had some problems with bedbugs. I was very pleased with the manner and how the tech handled it. The gentleman was very professional and very thorough. I kept it in mind and started using it. I would do a quarterly pest control service for my home and I switched over to Terminix because of that. Scheduling service through Terminix is very easy. I just call and say when I need it. I was getting an email at one point saying, “It’s time for your service,” but I did not get one last time.
I had the same gentleman at our home the last time and he was very thorough. It was somebody else at my aunt's, but he was good as well. Both were very professional and they were on time. They took the time and got a very good area and did the whole areas of concern. They even asked about any particular ones we wanted them to concentrate on in addition to that, so it was good. Also, they call and ask earlier if there was anything specifically that we wanted to address before they came, so they can make sure that they have with them whatever the issue we had. That was great and I would definitely recommend Terminix.

I have been a customer with Terminix since Sept 2018. Not to mention I have spent over a 1000.00 in this short amount of time. Of course just got another bill in the mail which they still haven’t resolved my ant problem. So I called tonight to cancel my contract. The lady puts me on hold and guess what? 15 mins they are closed. Wow great customer service...ya right. Find another pest control company. This is the worst one ever and the worst customer service experience as well.

Terminix is supposed to come out once every few months. But if we call them for anything, they would also come out. That’s part of the contract. When they come in, they just do their thing. Sometimes we don’t see them. Most of the time, they don’t come and tell management. But whenever we do catch them, I can tell them they should go check a certain trap or spray a certain space, and they would take care of it. I haven't noticed any little creatures or bugs either. So they're doing pretty good.

I've had an excellent experience with Terminix. They would usually give me a call a week in advance and then within an hour of arriving, I would get another call or text. I’m never there when they show up, so knowing that they would be coming out that day, I leave the gate open. They would come in and spray the backyard, and then later, paperwork would tell me what was done and what they found. I had issues in my backyard before but I don’t now, so obviously it’s working.

We have mice at home and I’m not fast enough to catch them. I wouldn’t wanna catch them anyway as they'd probably bite me then I'd have a disease that'd kill me. And we’ve got two basset hounds but dogs don’t chase mice. So because of that, we hired Terminix back in October to have someone who would deal with the problem.
Initially, they asked if we had termites and as far as I knew, we didn't. But when their guy came out and took a look around, he said we did. I was kind of leery if we really did but he showed me a path. We've got a brick house and the termites were trying to work their way to the brick into the garage. But the tech said that they hadn't made it inside. So, I signed up for their plan and got the thing for termites. They sprayed the whole outside of the house and that has worked well.
But when it came to the mice problem, the tech said that there were some little droppings in the closet. He said that the mice like to go to places that are not frequented a lot by us and that made sense to me. So, he put down a trap in the laundry room, one in the bedroom and the closet, about three out here in the kitchen, and one in the garage. But we check them and every morning, there’d be no mouse in there and my wife said that she still saw a mouse. So, I brought the guy back out and he brought a different type of trap. It was a little bit bigger and a little sticky. He said that it'd work but it didn't. So, now I’m getting frustrated.
I called the third time and the owner came out. He did the same thing the other guy did and said that he didn't see any trails. He also said that he thought the mice were gone. But that was about three weeks ago and my wife told me that she just saw a black one go into the stove. Terminix had a trap right out to the side of the stove, under the sink, and the mice never got into the trap. And the other day, she told me she saw a little baby mouse over by the fireplace.
Long story short is, we still got the mice problem and I feel like I’ve paid for a service but they haven't fixed the problem. And I don't think I’m asking too much. But I’m gonna give Terminix one more try and if their tech doesn't fix it, I’m gonna try to find somebody else and I’m gonna bill Terminix. I need to get rid of these mice because they’re just as bad as roaches. They carry disease and stuff. All in all, my experience with Terminix has been horrible and I have no inclination of renewing my contract when it expires, unless they can do something about our mice problem.

They got rid of the termites but I saw where Terminix said that if I had a contract with them and if they ever found termites after inspecting it the first time, they would pay for the damage to the house. I thought that was great so I changed from Oregon to Terminix a long time ago. I have the pest control and a contract for termites with Terminix.
The last time Terminix was out was for the pest control. They sprayed and they come about every three months. But when I had an appointment for the 27th, they were supposed to be there between 8:00 and 10:00. They sent an email about it. So, I got up really early and at 12 o’clock, they still hadn’t shown up. I called and I went through the automated thing. I said for scheduling and I was told that their schedule to come was in the 28th. Nobody contacted me and told me that.
This was the second time that has happened. It happened a long time ago, the same tech. So, I called and talked to a representative. She was so nice and kind. She said that they had a little trouble with their equipment for scheduling. She went through the whole thing and they were gonna send me a new time. However, I had a doctor’s appointment with the time they were gonna give me. She told me they could come March 13th for a termite inspection that I have once a year. I couldn’t take the date that she offered me and she looked but she didn’t have anything very soon. So, she said she would get with one out of Palestine. She was gonna get with them and have them send me one. So, I'm sure I'll get it very soon. I told her that the next time they schedule me, I'm going to call the day before and see if I'm still on schedule. Despite that, all the employees have been nice.

I'm satisfied with my experience with Terminix. It is a good warranty and I haven't had any more termites. Now, they leave little sticky things for me and most of the ones I see are in the garage.

I have a long story about our Flea problem which I must condense here. The infestation began away from our home in July 2018 with someone who walked dogs in Queens NYC. That person became overwhelmed with fleas in their apt and moved out due to the infestation in late August - to our house. The fleas bit our dog, but he was never infected due to use of Frontline Plus - whenever the Frontline started wearing out he started scratching (which was about every 3 weeks) and then we would retreat him.
Our old cat died in late Sept 2018 possibly as a result of the flea anemia. We did not know because she spent her life hiding from everyone unless you happened to be alone. About 2 weeks before that cat I began to get bitten. I would sleep in a different room to avoid them, but eventually they found me in every part of the house. I read that fleas can't live off people as so I thought they would go away. Not these fleas! The fleas did not bite my wife at all, but they voraciously went after myself and the other person. The other person still has them in their hair as this writing, but isn't living at our house anymore. I no longer have them in my hair, but have not quite succeeded in removing all from the various places that became infested (work home, vacation home, cars, and workplace).
They produced many eggs everywhere of course and we began vacuuming and spraying all the time with ordinary big box store insect products. I bought freezers to keep my clothes in and started boiling anything that handle it in 40 gal pot (to kill fleas, eggs, and larva). I was using IGRs (insect growth regulators) and other insecticide products I learned about. When these did not work I started hiring Exterminators. I hired a highly rated one from my county. They treated our house 4 times without success. They used a combination of knock down chemicals and IGRs. Then despite their annual contract that called for them to respond when asked - they stopped coming.
A few months later I hired Terminix. They charged about 1/2 the price of the other company for 1 visit in which they used a single IGR and expected it to work. They asked me beforehand to vacuum the whole house just before they came which I did. When they finished they said I should spread the chemicals around the floors (we had ripped up all our carpets months ago) with a damp mop. This was kind of a big job but I did it even though I wasn't always sure where they sprayed. I don't understand why Terminix couldn't simply used a sprayer with appropriate dilution as I later did. The technician claimed the fleas as social creatures would rub each other with the IGR (Gentrol) and this would kill them all. As far as I can tell this is an untrue statement - no place I've seen considers Gentrol appropriate for adulticide of fleas. There was no follow up and the fleas survived w/o much effort.
After one week of no result I was fed up and vowed to become my own exterminator. I bought a quality sprayer and several IGRs of different classes together with knock downs of different classes. I sprayed these in my car and all over the house following the two week period Terminix claimed was needed for the Gentrol to work (it hadn't worked). Within two days there were few fleas left in the house, but it will be many weeks before I eliminate all the pockets of fleas. Given their ability to live off of humans exclusively I suspect they are human fleas (Pulex irritans). I would have brought them to the Cornell extension for identification, but they never seemed to be available. The exterminators including the technicians from Terminix I have spoken to seem to have no knowledge of entomology.
While Terminix has money back guarantees for easy insects like spiders they don't offer such a thing for fleas. The shame is that they could have taken care of the problem had they wanted to and had they not created a situation where it is in their interest to minimize treatment whether or not the problem is solved. I will never use again for sure.
Next weekend I am off the save the person from fleas who started the problem in our house with my newfound knowledge and supplies. I am very glad to help because this is not a problem that I found a competent company to help me solve. Granted it is an unusual situation most people are unlikely to run into. If you can count on a company like Terminix to help you in a bad situation - why bother with them?

I started with Terminix in 1986 and they’ve been good, on time and done the job they were contracted to do. I got a regularly scheduled pest control. If I have any problems, I call them and they come right out within two or three days or a week. Most of the technicians are very friendly, and wear the tags and uniforms they are supposed to wear. I’ve talked with all of them to find out what they think about this, that, or the other as far as keeping my house and my family free of things that we wanna be free of. Although they do my house and right around the house where I’ve got some land, they don’t do any of that. They tell me how to do it and what to use. Other than the usual chiggers and ticks, there are no problems on my property.

Terminix is sending the notification when they're coming to my cousin's email, so mostly, I don't know anything until my cousin lets me know. But Tommy, the primary person from Terminix that comes to my home, always calls me to say he's gonna come and always accommodates the time to my best convenience. Tommy comes every three months. But twice I asked him to reschedule because of the snow, and I didn't want him to come. He cares, pays attention to what I need and want and does the service really well. Everything is perfect.
I love this guy and I feel comfortable with him. I don’t mind letting him go inside my house to do the services. Of all the guys that came to my home previously, Tommy is the only guy whose name I really know. I've had some guys who seemed to get upset if I request something special. These were even making faces to me. Tommy, however, is always so nice. Since my service with Terminix began, everything improved a lot. I'm glad about the service.

Scheduling with Terminix is alright, though we did have our moments. One thing I didn’t like was that they would just send anybody, and I’m one of those ones where if they’re gonna send somebody out, I would prefer the same person because they know what’s going on. A lot of the technicians seemed like they didn’t care. I spoke to customer service and they said that there was nothing they could do about sending technicians the way that they were. They would relay it on to who you needed to go to, but it seemed like it was just the same thing every time.
I called Terminix in Fayetteville, Arkansas and spoke to somebody directly who made it aware that it was not true that they can’t send the same technician if I requested it. He also said to call him back if I had any problems. We had a guy named Richard who came out and he was hands down the best one we had. He took the initiative and seemed like he cared. He stayed anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour and a half, compared to any of the other technicians we had that would only put the baits out and give us the traps. Now I’m barely seeing pests.

Their representatives have been great and their technicians come out once a year. With them, we haven’t had any more termites. The only thing is I think they are extremely high. I noticed this last year that they gave me a break. I thought that was just about what the price should be. I thought 18 was the most reasonable of their rates that they had offered. I didn’t understand why they really went down a lot. But now, I noticed that with the new bill that came in, they’ve gone back up to being extremely higher than other companies. I don’t understand that too.

We tried to cancel our service after a few months when we felt it was not useful. Terminix said we had a mouse problem outside our garage door and set out traps. It was actually a bat problem and we solved it with a bright light there at night since the bats were just eating there and not actually living there. The email portal and voice messages did not return communication from Terminix like it said it would. Messages were sent to both regional managers who did not contact us. Multiple messages were responded to with the occasional form letter.
Horrible, horrible customer service. We had to pay our last quarter bill because it occurred before our contract was cancelled but AFTER our MANY attempts to contact Terminix to cancel. I argued that if Terminix actually returned communication like their automatic replies said they would then our contract would have been cancelled before the last billing. This fell on deaf ears with the threat of collections so we paid it and I fully disclosed this would generate a poor rating.

So now to add insult to injury, my credit has been affected.

I get a notification on email and then it tells me a number that I could call to confirm or to adjust it. I try calling the number. It's an automated number. No one ever returns my call for that number. And then, they don't show up on that scheduled time. So when I see those notifications I pretty much ignore them. A technician will then call me like a day or two ahead of when they have on their schedule, and it doesn't necessarily coincide with the email notification. So, it's almost like they are invisible for me to talk to, until that technician finally calls.
But the last three times I've had the same technicians and they're customer-friendly. They talk us through what they're doing. The last few times, I've made sure either my wife or I were home while they did it so we could ask questions and direct them. For example, they were only treating the outside of the house and I wanted them to get in the crawl space. When we meet them there and deal with them, the technicians are great. But the whole sour part with the lack of communication from their office makes me hesitant to refer them. The actual service is very good, but the communication and how they deal with their customers are all automated. I could never refer them out of this office, in the area that I now live, just because of that.

Terminix comes out here every three months and all my interactions with their techs have been good. They’ve all been nice and friendly, they let me know when they’re here and when they leave. If I have to reschedule, they’re always good with me. I’m very satisfied with my experience. Terminix has kept all the pests away.

We've been very happy with Terminix. They come to follow up every three months we get. They call me and tell me when they're coming, and it works out good for us. The tech that came out was very good. He was friendly. He explained what he was doing. He said if I have any issues between that and the next visit, to call and he'll come back.
We enjoy reading about the excellent service our technicians perform. Thank you for the feedback and for being a Terminix customer.

Terminix does a satisfactory job. I've been with them for about 25 years and I haven't had any problems. They let me know when they're coming, show up where when they're supposed to and do their job then get out. They come out four times a year and the schedule is predetermined with my agreement. A couple of weeks in advance, they send me an email saying when they're planning to come and ask if it's agreeable. If it's not agreeable, I let them know and then they reschedule. They did this for the house I live in and a piece of rental property I have.
If I'm home when they come, they would let me know they're here. If I'm not at home, they would leave a note on the door telling me they were here and what they did. In my house, everything is great. But my rental house still has rats in the garage. That has pretty much been an issue since I bought the place several years ago. They have tried to handle it but rats are pretty damn smart and Terminix hasn't been successful in getting rid of the rats. Overall though, I've been very satisfied.

It seems illegal for a long standing customer with absolutely zero past claims history who receives the annual bond renewal to see a 400% to 500% increase. From $320 to $1499.00. This is widespread in the Mobile, AL area. Buyer BEWARE!

We’ve been with Terminix for over 35 years and we’re very pleased with them. Every single technician that they send knows his job and is very polite. If I need them to come back because of another problem we have, we have no problems. We pay yearly and then they come about every four months. They check outside. Most recently, they did a standard visit. I was concerned about one millipede that has gotten upstairs and the tech treated the inside for that and that was it. The Terminix tech comes automatically and in case we’re not home, we show him how to get in. We have some security measures in place and we only give it to the one that was here before and we’ve never ever had any problems with them. They also send me a text or call me, so we always know that they’re gonna be here. We love our Terminix service.

We have a storage facility and to keep things under control, we have the people from Terminix come out once a month. We let them spray throughout our facility for pest control. If ever we would call in speak to anybody, it is good. When we called in the past, they gave us a good recommendation and good advice. Scheduling for Terminix's services works out fine too. We know when the tech, John, is coming and he comes. We have a set schedule and he usually meets that schedule. He goes through what he'll do, asks questions, and is very thorough. He's also very cordial and we have a rapport with him. Usually, we might need some extra pest strips and he always has those available. If not, he has them back to us within a reasonable time. Since having Terminix, the pest activity has been under control and we're satisfied. I would recommend Terminix to anybody else.

I’ve seen a couple of roaches, spiders and ants, and I wanted to nip everything in the bud before it became a problem. I was checking around and Terminix had the best price, although it didn’t turn out that way. The representative at Terminix set up the appointment and it was quick, but we got something lost in translation as to the payment. It was supposed to be every three months for a year, but they were billing me every month and I thought that it was not what I signed up for. I called Terminix and I was trying to get to understanding, but it was a parting of ways.

We took Terminix when we built the house and they come out once a year to provide service for us. The technicians that come out are usually good, but it seems like all they’re interested in is going out and selling something that is not needed. This last time, I was really upset.

I've had my service with Terminix for more than 12 years and my experience with them has been fine. Recently, they did their annual inspection and came out to check for termites. When scheduling the service, they called and said they were coming at a certain time, then I emailed them back whether that was okay. After doing the inspection, the technician gave me a report telling me that everything was okay.

I've used Terminix for about four years now and I have a regular service through them every three months. Then if I need them, they would come back out and do whatever needs to be done. They have one tech who is really good and he had tried to help with whatever I needed done. He had told me to let him know if I see something that he needs to do here and he would go from there. His knowledge is really good, too. There were two other techs that come out and they’ve been nice as well. I would recommend Terminix.

I’ve been using ChemLawn for 25 years, including in Virginia. I’ve been down here for 23 and they must have come under the same umbrella as Terminix. My experience with them all the time with Shawn as the man has been better than excellent. He’s a very kind man who does a good job and he pointed out a few little things that he does and he tries to do the best. My wife is very happy with him and he's been here 10 years doing us.
We had another friend that he did, and they were very pleased with him. They were very happy, but the price got outrageous and my friend didn't wanna spend that type of money on the service, so they dropped it. Shawn's the best guy we’ve had from Terminix and the lawn people. He comes four times a year and calls us to say when he's coming the following day. We have it scheduled every four months and I’m sure when he’s gonna come next. We see a few little ants crawling every now and then, but there's nothing big. There are no roaches either.
Great feedback, William! We genuinely appreciate it, and we’re glad to hear that you’re happy with your service!

Terminix is dependable, friendly and affordable. We use them for preventive purposes and they usually schedule the service for me. But I can change it if it conflicts with my schedule and that's easy to access through their website. A box comes and it'll show you what's available and what's not available. The technician we started with was Scott and he had been doing it for years. But he was promoted so he went to a main office. We've had several technicians and everyone, including Scott, was very personable and nice. I really enjoyed working with all of them. It's been well over 10 years and I haven't really seen any pests. We have a pretty large building and I don't think anyone else has either.

I've been using Terminix's service for about 3 years and I'm satisfied in my experience with them. Other companies' services are not reliable. But scheduling for Terminix's service is very easy. If I want them to come in, I try to schedule it when I'm available, and they'll accommodate me. If I want to change a date for service, they're available, and it's no problem. What I've done is that I've tried to develop a relationship with one guy and he has been the same technician for this year. He handles my house and knows what my needs are, and that has worked out well. He is very professional and hardworking. For the last few years, their service has been working and it works really well. I might have had a couple of issues but they've been resolved. And since their most recent service, I haven't noticed any difference in pest activity, which is a good thing, because I don't wanna see anything. In Mercer County, Terminix is the best.

I have been satisfied with Terminix all these years up until about a few months ago when they talked me into trying the termite service. To get started on the termite service, they charged me $900. Then, come December of last year, they sent me a reminder notice of renewal. Nobody mentioned a renewal fee of $329 when they were getting me to sign up. As of January of this year, I canceled the termite service, but from that point on, the termite renewal fee has been on my account. I have the general pest control and they came out and did the general pest control. I got charged $74 for that. I pay the account online, so I went online to try and pay the $74, but when I entered my information, the system took the $74 plus the $329, and it was one fault I found of the whole thing.
I love the general pest control but I don’t appreciate the system. I had to call this one, call that one, and call the other. Finally, I got a person to tell me that they will refund my $329, but as of yet, I haven’t gotten it. Other than the termite deal, I’m satisfied with Terminix. I have the same technician each time. They changed it one time but they put my regular technician back on.

I've been with Terminix for two years and they come out quarterly. Before they come, they send me an email and text message. Sometimes, I change the appointment and it works pretty well. I have a very good relationship with the professional that does the service for me. I always ask him to check the basement. He goes there and puts traps for insects. When there are insects, I want to know what the insects are and he explains it to me. Plus, he’s very attentive and also gives attention to details outside the house. I am very satisfied with Terminix. Although the pest activity in my home is the same, the outside is good because they clean the web. I feel more confident that I’m protected.

My house is only a couple of years old but I was having a lot of problems with roaches in the house. We now have none whatsoever though. Terminix completely annihilated all bugs in my house so their service is fantastic. I have tried other companies and they were not able to provide the service that Terminix did. I would highly recommend them. They're coming out every three months and I had set it up where as I've paid upfront, they would come out every three months on a regular schedule. When it's time, they let me know they're on the way. They come to my house and we go ahead with the procedure. So far, we’ve been having good technicians. We had a new one come out this recently and we’ll have to get used to his ways a little bit. But they're very nice people. They're very business-like and they do a great job explaining things.

Scheduling for any of Terminix's services works great. I do quarterly extermination for maintenance and everything works as they should. Their technicians are also good. I did, however, had a problem. I had Terminix out here, but they switched office, so I dropped their service. And then, I went to Orkin because I have birds, and Terminix didn't handle wildlife. But I had to constantly keep calling Orkin to come back once they had sprayed. I never experienced that with Terminix. So I came back to Terminix and ever since then, I haven't had an issue.
