    Terminix comes out and do the quarterly maintenance for me. Initially, I went with them because I liked the fact that they're national, so I assumed that their standards are a little bit higher than normal. I have them for two years now and their techs always knock and let me know they're here. They always let me know what they're gonna be doing if I'm home and they’ve always been very nice. So far, the pest activity in my home is almost negligible and if I ever see any, it's usually right after it rains, so it's kind of understandable. I'm very satisfied with Terminix.

    Terminix comes out when they say they’re supposed to and most recently, they came for a regular routine. They tell me when they’re coming out and that’s fine with me so far. Normally, I'm not home when the technician comes out, but he emails me what he's done.

    I have roaches here and so far, I've had a good experience with their techs. But every time they left, within a couple of days, I had a whole bunch of roaches that flew over the place. That’s why I called about five times already for their service. Other than that, when their techs came out, they were on time and sometimes they came earlier than the timeframe they set. They were also very courteous and very nice. But since they've been spraying, the situation has gotten worse. More bugs keep showing up and a couple of days after the last tech came, I saw a big German roach that was about 10 times the size of a regular roach.

    One time Terminix's techs randomly stopped by the house. At the time, I didn't have a contract with them but eventually got one thereafter.

    I bought this house in 2015 and it had Terminix. There's a termite problem in one of the windows in the garage and that’s where they put the traps in, so I kept them and so far they’ve done a good job. They come once a year and check it, and they usually call me and let me know when they’re gonna inspect. If there’s a need to be refilled, they do it.

    I recently remembered that I didn't get a bill from Terminix. I called them to find out and I didn't realize that my payment was overdue. The rep answered my questions and she was really polite and I paid the bill. The only issue I had was the phone line was garbled and it was like I was hearing other people talk on the line. I have had the termite inspection with Terminix since 2003, but, before that, my ex-husband and I used Terminix and we’ve always used them since I moved to this house in 1987. I have been doing the termite inspection once a year. I also had pest control for a while, but I decided I didn’t really need it. Terminix recently came to do the termite inspection and the experience was nice. I don’t kill all my brown recluse and Terminix kills everything else. I also have mice, but they didn’t really help with that. They told me to get traps, so I don’t need Terminix if I had to do it myself.

    I get a notification that says Terminix would be at my house at such day, although they didn’t call and ask me. They didn’t schedule with me and they scheduled without me. Then, I’m supposed to call and say, “No, I can’t.” I assumed all that is automated, but it has never really changed. I considered going to somebody else just for that because I don’t work regular hours and it aggravates me to have somebody come on a day when I’m not aware. I’ve done this since 1987 and they haven’t done a thing about it. I like the actual work of Terminix except that.

    I was having termite issues and Terminix has the best warranty in the business so I called them. I told them I had a trail going outside of my house and they referred me to the guy who does it out here in this area. We set up an appointment and the guy came out. We talked about the price and what was gonna happen. He installed green little plastics they put chemicals on. I've been getting regular services and there has been no termite activity. They come out once a year and they came out last month to check on the units. The second tech that came was very nice and he explained everything to me. I asked if he could expose all the units so I don't hit them when I do my yard work and he did that.

    We’ve been dealing with Terminix for 30 years now and so far, we don’t have any complaints. The work that they do is fine. They’re as good as anybody else. The only thing I don’t like is that they keep changing people. We used to have the same guy for 15 years. We’re in business too and I know how hard it is to keep people. But it’s nice to have the same person coming every month, so we do not have to babysit them when they come out. But since Terminix has been coming, we've had very little pest activity. We used to have a business, and they always came out to our business too. And they were wonderful. We’ve recommended them.

    I've been with Terminix for five years and the service keeps things at bay as far as the insects are concerned. The service is good. We have them come in every month to make sure that our vermins are taken care of. The technicians are very nice and pleasant, and they give me brief explanations of what's going on here, so it's all good. They do their job and give me a report. And then, I get an email of the report on top of that. I would recommend them.

    Terminix came for a three month follow up and the schedule was all set up. I got an email or call about when they were coming. I really like the traps they use for mice and the trap catches voles right at the garage door. I can’t really find those anywhere. I have a vacant lot behind me so I have those field mice at a certain time of the year, and the traps work fine for me. It was the billing part that I had an issue with because I thought my husband would let them know that we would send them a check but the payment was done on auto-pay. It threw some things off balance because I have my budget. I was upset about that. But otherwise, the service part was fine.

    We had termites and it had been going on for less than a month before we got in touch with Terminix. All the technicians have been awesome, very nice, very cordial, and very cognizant of being in someone’s house and being respectful. We had them put in the termite traps and then they come out once a year to check them and make sure all the bait is full. We don’t have termites anymore in our house. Terminix is expensive but it's one of those necessary evil types of things. Otherwise, we haven't had any problems with them. It has been a good service and I'm sure if I needed them and if I saw an issue, they would come out.

    Terminix comes out annually, in July, for termites and they tell us when they’re gonna come. They do their thing on the outside only, they don’t say anything, then they leave. The times that they come inside, all they do is go around the house, and look with their little flashlight. They say, “Well, you have no termites inside the house either,” and away they go. So, Terminix keeps termites away.

When they first started coming, they didn’t leave a slip if I was not around. But now, I got them to leave a slip in the door, so that way I knew when they were here. The pest activity has been much less since they've been servicing our home. We’ve always had ants in the kitchen and then now that we got Terminix, we don’t have ants in the kitchen anymore.

He went around and looked at what we needed. He wasn't there super long, but it worked. It took a few days for the treatment to take effect and he had told me that. We had a bee problem and he said I had to take the poison into the hive before it took effect, and it ended up working. I would recommend Terminix.

    We've been using Terminix for six weeks now to treat our roach problem. Everybody in their team has been very kind. I would call to schedule a service and then they would send the tech out. He was here a total of five minutes putting down the bait and he left. However, the roach problem is still terrible and I'm already getting cranky about it.

    I’m happy with Terminix and I don’t feel like changing. I had a lot of problems here and I always got service pretty quickly. When I said they gotta go up and check in the attic because we had rats up there, they had traps to take care of that. Then, the squirrels were eating into the areas in the roof and after they got in and did a lot of damage, they kept making noises and it would blow my mind. So, Terminix put all kinds of screen surround thing.

    They also did preventative kind of things then they came regularly every few months to spray inside and outside. I pay for those routine sprays with a different price. But if something shows up or if I saw some roaches, I would call and they would come. I also had termites several years ago and at the time the house didn’t have a policy when we moved in, so we got termite prevention from Terminix. Since then, they’ve been doing different termite inspections and came a couple of times a year to just look for termites. And thank God I haven't had termites again. One time, I also got red ants and Terminix came and took care of that. So, if something comes up, they have been very reliable. Jason, my former guy, was really nice and I was so used to him. But I heard he was very sick and I kind of feel bad I didn’t try to call him.

    Pls. stay away and beware of these thieves. Spoiled my whole week talking to various people in their headquarter and local branch office in Long Island, NY. Long Island, NY office is filled up with 100% rude and customer enemy people who don't know how to deal with customers and be a professional. It was so annoying to deal with them that. I really had to shout and be abusive. Headquarter is worst than the local branch. The reps speak to you very nicely to start with and promise to resolve your issue and after put you on hold while they talk to local branch, and immediately change their color and just say what local branch want them to say without taking any step towards resolution.

    For them their local branch is everything and customer does not have any say even if you are 100% right and local branch is wrong. Never use them. The worst pesticide/termite control company on the island ever faced. After having a contract with them for 15 years and paying all dues/renewal on time, they terminated our contract today and asked me to go somewhere else after knowing that there may be some insect/pest activity at the property. They asked me to pay another $1400 to treat the property and restart the contract again from scratch with high annual price. I paid them $300 every year for almost 15 years and they only visited the property once a year during the contract term and never treated it but will charge you full amount every year.

    Once you complain about any activity or request for another service, they will create some kind of story and ask you to pay extra money and then again restart the contract with higher charges. The local Long Island office is very very rude, non professionals and only sitting here to eat your money. Each and every one in local Long Island branch, including their manager, inspector is very very rude. If you call their headquarter, no one is there to resolve your issue, rather listen to their local branch office and will dictate their terms.

    I am taking them to court for all what they did with us. I am surprised that after being a national level company and part of ServiceMaster group, there is no proper management and professionalism with Terminix and they don't care about their customer. ServiceMaster should be alerted and take some actions before they go out of business. Bottom line is that if you want to be cheated and then on top of that disrespected, please call Terminix today. Terminix has hired bunch of idiot fools sitting there to disrespect you.

    I contacted Terminix whenever I need them because I had ants problem, which was more than quarterly. The scheduling was fine but there was no good communication between the scheduler and the tech who came. When I called them and told them that I made an appointment but nobody showed up, they told me that they didn't know that I had an appointment.

    Even so, the techs were okay. There was one guy and he said he wasn't assigned to this area, but he came because nobody was available. He was really good. And there was this other guy, Brandon, who came twice. He was okay when it comes to communication, but I didn't like his work because he came twice, and he always said he only had a little bit bait and that he cannot put it everywhere and can put it only on some spots. But then, I told him that I was paying for the service and he should have brought enough bait. I wasn't very happy about that. Nevertheless, the pest activity is a lot less to compare with what we started. But if the last tech had put more baits, it has been resolved a lot sooner than I had to wait for two to three months.

Based on what I have heard, pests have been more. But I don't have any data to support this info, because what I have seen in the reports are not showing that to me. In the past year, I have been asking for some stuff and Terminix could not provide. They are not able to provide me access to the data for me to be able to do terrain analysis.

    Terminix was fabulous and everything went really good. Everybody was nice and helpful. They return my calls and answer all my questions. When scheduling the service, I call and ask them if somebody could come and then somebody comes. Rocky came and he checked the house, then he called back to see what I wanted to do. We just had the two houses tented for termites. What they do is they come in, set up the tent and then they leave. They come back the next day and gotta wait six hours before the house airs out. The process was hard because we have animals so we have to do one house first for one week, then we have to haul everything to the other house. But it was good.

    The crew who came and checked up the tent were all Micronesian boys. They didn’t talk much but they were very polite. When I did the first house, I bagged the food wrong and so they took apart all the bags and they help me re-bag. Since the service, there are no droppings now. Terminix comes every month to spray outside the house and sometimes the insides. So they come all the time. When I'm not home, Edwin, the technician just goes in and sprays in. He’s been doing our house for years and my dogs don't bother him. Then we have James, the manager here. He checks if the house was aired out properly and he was so nice. I love Terminix.

    I have quarterly service with Terminix. When it's time for service, I get an email and then followed up with a phone call. Their tech, Edwin, usually sends me a text or a voice mail when he is going to arrive. He knocks on the door and I tell him what I’m looking for and he checks in, and that’s very pleasant. He’s a nice young man and I appreciate him. He's efficient and does a good job. I enjoy interacting with him and he’s one of the reasons why I continue to work with Terminix. Usually, I interact with him but in a particular case, it was my wife who spoke with him and I had asked her to let him know of an inside issue. Normally, he just does the outside unless we inform him of some inside things we need to be done. He took care of the inside issue and then the outside as usual and all is well.

    I have had my fair share of Terminix's competitors knocking on the door and telling me how wonderful they’re going to be and they probably are fine. I believe that the service from Terminix is probably comparable to what others would provide. However, the difference is that Terminix goes a little further than many other companies on the customer service side. In between quarterly services, there has been an occasional need to have a special visit. That's never an issue and is scheduled reasonably. So, I continue to use their service. I'm satisfied with the level of pest activity since I started using Terminix.

Still, anytime that I have had an issue, it has been resolved. Sometimes, it takes a little bit longer depending on what it is, but right now, I don't have any problems. So I've been pleased in general with the service.

    Terminix took over the company I used in Missouri and I did not have a very good experience with the franchise there so I canceled my service before I moved. But it didn’t put me off trying them here in Massachusetts because I know that they are franchises. I have a quarterly plan with them. The people on the phone were very helpful and I got a fairly quick appointment. Normally, they would have an extra charge for the first service, but they were able to give me a discounted rate on it. So I got it for just a little bit more than the regular rate.

    When the technician came, we went over what type of issues I saw and it wasn’t anything major. I don’t mind the spiders outside, but I don’t want them inside my house. We went through the house together, and he was treating things as he saw them. He didn’t do a major spray throughout the whole house ‘cause I have pets. Then he went outside to take a look and do treatments there and he came back inside to say that he was leaving. He was a very nice, pleasant, and knowledgeable guy. I already knew what to expect from the service and he just went ahead and did what he needed to do without being intrusive. My house is not totally pest-free, but it’s not bad enough that I need to call somebody out. It’s by the season so I expect to see spiders around but since having the Terminix service, I see fewer of them in the house than I normally see at this time of the year. The local Terminix here were really helpful and I would recommend them.

    We signed up with Terminix four months ago as we were having a serious issue of pack rats. Terminix came in and assessed what kind of service we would need. Chris set up a contract and he was great. We had to have a corporate approval and soon after we had that, Grant came in. He’s our service tech and he’s always on time, happy, very knowledgeable, and he provides excellent service.

    We had termites and mice so we have Terminix service every three months. I schedule with them over the phone and it has been mediocre. Sometimes I would get a scheduling, but won’t get notified. Also when we had a little question about the pest spray I keep on getting mixed information from the headquarters, and then the people that I have to deal with when they show up, as far as how long do I keep the place evacuated. That was a challenge because I have a dog now.

    There were also a lot of times when they would schedule and not show up or schedule and not be there at the time that they’re supposed to be there. But that was just something that has happened recently with the last four appointments, between pest control and termite. I would tell them to text me so I know when they were coming and I could tell them what they could do before I show up. If I’m gone, I’m normally no more than two minutes away. The technicians listen and they were fine. I would still recommend Terminix because as far as scheduling, that can always be fixed. They’re also the most affordable in town, and the service is good. The mice and the termites are gone.

    I have a quarterly service from Terminix. When they did the outside, we had spider and bed bug service too. I hate scheduling a service with them because when I call in, it's a call center and they give my call to whoever is in the area. And that always doesn’t come back because they don’t always call in a timely manner. I waited four days for someone to call me. And since we got this quarterly set up with the technician, the call center cannot schedule. It’s the most stupidest thing anybody has ever came up with

    When somebody wants to call, they want a direct call not this hee-hawking around wherein you have to wait for five minutes or even longer which is ridiculous. Since you can’t call the technician, the only thing you could do is call the call center and tell them again. It’s totally chaos when you do that. I don’t like it. When I call someone, I want to call them direct and make a schedule now and not wait around for someone to call me back. Also, one of the technicians broke my doorway. He was trying to say he didn’t do it, but he was the last one in my house when he left. He fixed it anyway.

    We’ve had bed bugs for a year now and we’re doing everything. I threw my couch out. I threw the beds out. I don’t have money to buy any more beds so we’re left without a bed. But I have bed bug covers on the mattresses. I have them on the pillows. They said to throw the clean clothes in the dryer and we did. They said to throw it in there for 35 minutes and we did it for 45 minutes. We figured an extra 15 minutes won’t hurt. If anything, it would help. All the bedding needed cleaning so we bagged it all up, tied it and took it to the laundromat, washed it and dried it there. We’ve done everything that we could possibly do.

    I’m really, really trying to figure out how to get rid of them. I’ve even done the rubbing alcohol on my own. The 91 proof that they have out. We went and bought a bunch of bottles of that and started spraying down the mattress at the back. When they didn’t come out, that’s what I do. I’ve been told they live for six months to a year without feeding. But no one could give me a direct answer. And then I was told they go in your electronics too and you’re really screwed if they go in your electronics since you’ll never get rid of them because that’s where they’re gonna hide.

    I know heating up the house don’t do crap. I’ve been through that one already before Terminix. My dad did have someone come out and heated up the house. All that does is dehydrate you. Unless they do a chemical or something afterwards, they’re gonna be right there. So far, we’re going on a year and a couple months now but I don’t know if the technicians are doing everything they’re supposed to do because I’m not in here to see what they’re doing. I don't know if they’re missing anything. I know they freeze and they spray but I wonder how they get them out of the electronics. Nonetheless, Terminix has been really, really good. I would recommend them.

    I had a problem with cockroaches and I called Terminix for the extermination of those pests. I was on hold for five minutes or so but the person that I spoke with who set up the appointment was very helpful and very efficient. The technician came in, we said hello to each other and then he got started. He did each apartment, including my apartment, but didn’t really tell me what he was doing. I trusted that he did his job but it would’ve been nice if he had communicated with me along the way in terms of what precisely he was doing so that I would know. Nevertheless, he did a thorough job and the problem is gone. I haven’t seen any infestation or roaches.

    People should definitely use Terminix and give Terminix a chance with whatever problem they’re dealing with. They should make sure that they communicate as much as they can to the best of their knowledge about the issue that they have, with the person who sets up the appointment as well as the technician who comes out.

    I was having roaches and when Terminix first came out the first couple times, they didn’t do the whole house. They only did a third of it and I had to have them come out two other times after that. And they still didn’t do it right. They didn’t do the upstairs and the outside of the house. So when a different guy came this last time, I asked him to do the entire house and the outside, and he did.

    But when he was supposed to first come to my house, I called and rescheduled the appointment. And when knocked on my back door, he was really rude and hateful. He was cussing at me because I told him that they cancelled the appointment. He said he drove an hour out here and they didn't tell him. He didn't have to use that kind of language towards me, so I called and made a complaint. But this last time that he came out, he did an awesome job. He used two different jugs of spray and gave me an extra can to use. He was really polite and told me to leave with the animals as he was gonna do a complete spray. Since I got Terminix, I don't have pests as bad as I did. I had them really bad in my kitchen before but they’re more towards my bathroom now.

    I have an annual contract so Terminix comes out once a quarter to treat the place. But then I can also call in to have more service done whenever I want. I have a cockroach problem in my building currently, so I called them. They come every three weeks. If I have a complaint about Terminix, it is about the inconsistency of all the different contractors that they use. I find all of them very pleasant. They've all been very nice, very patient and very helpful but some of their contractors are more thorough doing the actual work than others.

    There's been a couple of times where I feel like people just come in, do kind of like a cursory look and just do a couple of bait traps and leave really quickly. Whereas there's been several times where I've had some really good quality contractors come in and really take some time to explain some things to me and spray and do more bait traps than the others.

    I wish that they would be more thorough in their approach, or at least there's some kind of metric or checklist of what they should be doing so I would know if anybody is doing the right or the wrong thing. Because I feel like, as a consumer with no expertise in the field of pest control, I don't really know what I'm looking at. Somebody can come in and they can say whatever they want and do whatever they want, and I don't really have any reference. Terminix is good enough for me. Something that we're using for now. But if I had anybody suggest a company that does a better job, then I would use them.

We've been using Terminix as our pest control provider for a little over a year now. Typically, they give me a call and let me know when they’re going to come by, and make sure that the dog isn’t in the yard. Everything is on a tight schedule that happens pretty much automatically. When the technicians have come, I’ve had wonderful interactions with them. They’ve all been wonderful, nice, very professional, and informative. I’m not necessarily home when they come out but whether I’m there or not, they always leave a little thing at the door to let me know that they’ve been by, what they’ve done, and if they noticed anything that needs to be concerned about. Our situation now concerning the pests is far better than we had before.

Half the time, I’ll have to reschedule it and they can usually do it an okay date for me, but that doesn't happen often. Most of the time, I end up changing my schedule for them. Also, they consider their job done if they spray outside the house but I consider it done when they spray outside and inside. So we have a difference of understanding there and when I get home and find out they’ve been here, I have to then call off and schedule an inside job. Other than that, I haven’t had any problem with the technicians. I still get a few little bugs every so often but that is okay.

I also didn't know in the past that he was spraying things.

    So, when I saw him spraying things over our utensil things, I felt like that was not healthy. If there are ants activities on the countertop, the tech should tell us to move stuff from the countertop before he sprays. That is something they can improve on. Also, we have spiders inside and outside the house. There are spiders in the basement, upstairs and even in the driveway or on the porch.

They used to send an email a week in advance when they were coming out. Now, it’s like a day before or the morning of, or sometimes they just show up. It has been like that for the last year or so. I’ve complained about it but it hasn’t changed. If I’m home, it’s great. If I’m not, they only do the outside and there have been times that I want the inside done as well. So, I have to ask them to come back out. In effect, they’re making two trips out here when they can do it in one trip if I knew they were coming.

    The technicians change every time they come out but I’ve never had a bad experience other than one who obviously was in a hurry. All the other technicians have been very good, very thorough, took all the time they needed and did the whole house inside and outside. They seem very attentive to my request. The one bad technician was the one who said, “You know what? There’s no problem. We’re not gonna treat it.” And he was out here in 10 minutes. Every now and then, we have spiders and some bugs. But overall, our home has been good. One time, I had a problem with ants and I called them back. They came back out the next day, and after that, it was taken care of.

    We had a termite protection for my mother's house and facility done through another company and Terminix bought the contract. It was a little difficult with them at first because the two buildings are on the same house lot and they wanted to charge us for two different contracts. We told them that it was all done in one contract and it took a while to get that straightened out. They had a wrong address for the house too and it was just causing confusion.

    Additionally, the cost is going up and, yet, Terminix isn’t doing a whole lot. With termite protection, the treatment for foundations would last about 15 years. All the work was done by the other company before Terminix took over, so, now, Terminix is not putting out baits nor traps. But, they come and do the inspections and they are really good about notifying us beforehand.

And it has been effective ever since. Their service has always been satisfactory and excellent. However, their annual renewal fee is exceedingly high. Also, over the course of eight years, I have paid for the injection and the initial service. So while they guarantee the “Lifetime Protection,” the annual service fees are set up too high as well. But I’m locked in and if I drop them, I don’t have further protection and if I start all over again with their competitors, they’re going to want to do an injection so that they have a starting point.

    Terminix comes out every few months and if needed, we call, and they send one of their people to do what is needed. They're very good about scheduling. We get an email, then we get a phone call, and then, when they're at the door, we get another phone call. There was a turnover in personnel that comes to do the pest control. Most of the time, they are competent and willing to come back if needed which is an option that we appreciate. We feed a lot of animals here and sometimes, we have ants so they've had to come for that sometimes.

    I called Terminix's number online to schedule service for termite control and we've been using them for 2 months now. They put in the pot for the termites last time. Other than I need to have them come back out to look at the pot, the experience was good and everyone was great.

    I have problems mostly with roaches and mice, and Terminix comes out every 3 months to do service. I also call in between as needed and I recently had them come back to do a follow-up. I don’t see as much of the pests but I still see a few here and there. I don't expect everything to be gone right away, but sometimes the pests keep coming back so I ask Terminix if they have something stronger they can use so that I won’t keep on seeing the pests coming back.

    The technicians have been different people each time. I wasn’t home for the initial visit and the first tech said that he would bomb the house because he didn’t know if the roach problem was few here and there or how I thought it was. He did that and then he left. The only thing I didn’t like is that they’re supposed to do a barrier treatment around the house but the tech never did that. The last gentleman who came out said he was not supposed to do that and that I was supposed to get that on the first visit. So, he did it instead. Other than that, I like Terminix.

    I have a quarterly service with Terminix and my experience has been excellent so far. I've been working with them for several years and scheduling a service with them has been excellent. I get an advanced notice when they come and they have been timely and they stick to their schedule. Their reps were very knowledgeable, eager to please and they make suggestions without being pushy. Most recently, a gentleman, Jared, smelled the scent of gas from our gas meter and alerted us to that. We called Utmost Energy, the gas company. They came out, detected a slight leak in the meter and subsequently, detected the need to replace the FLEXCORD to the hot water heater linking the heater to the gas line.

    Our technician changes but most recently, Jared has been the go-to guy. We have Terminix mostly as preventative, but occasionally, season-to-season, we have a mosquito issue where we have to have the outside areas sprayed. It happened last summer but that did not happen this summer. So, they had to come back as a follow-up at no cost to homeowner and the mosquito treatment worked excellently.

    We were having an ant issue. I signed up with Terminix and we've been using them for three months now. When scheduling a service, they would call me to set it up, and then the exterminator himself would call me. It's been good. The tech that came walked me through where the problem areas were and he was great. Since the treatments started, the ants have been diminished. The problem now, however, is that when it rains, they come into the house. Also, we're having a wasp issue in our attic right now. So I'm gonna have to call Terminix back.

    Terminix is like a national company and they bought the company I’ve been using for pests. I stayed with Terminix and it was a good experience. I get what I normally get when I signed up in the package. I was kept in the same schedule for the service and since having the service, there are fewer pests. I don't like certain places sprayed, and the technician knows that. So he always asked me before he starts. If there's an area where he doesn't spray and I see there might be some stuff there, I have him spray it the next time.

    I like the technician a lot and it's the same person that comes all the time. He knows the customers, the area and the community. We are like family so it’s good. And then, if I tell him I have a problem, he works it in. He does the roaches but he’s also knowledgeable about other types of pests. I told them we have these frogs in the atrium and asked them what they would recommend. We could talk about that. He has a very good rapport with me and I know that he probably has a good rapport with a lot of other customers.

    Terminix sends me a reminder every year for termites then they send me a bill. I pay the bill, and then they come out a couple weeks later and do the inspection. Last month, their tech came out and checked for termites. He did his thing and he was professional. I've been using Terminix for several years now and I'm well satisfied with them. However, they're expensive. $95 for five minutes of work is pretty high.

    I was sick and tired of the bugs I have so I called the first pest control company I thought of, which was Terminix. The first service I scheduled with them was good. The only thing I didn't like about it was we completely cleaned up the kitchen for them to spray and after the guy was done, he said, “I didn’t spray. All I did was put traps down.” So that irritated me because we still have our roaches. They came out two weeks later. And then two weeks later from that, I called them again and told them that the roaches were still here. And they are still here today.

    The technician, up to the second one, said, “If you still see them, call us, and we’ll come out.” And they did, but we had bed bugs as well, and I wanted to have those sprayed. But they never gave me a list on what we had to do to get rid of bed bugs. So, when they came out to spray for the third time, the guy refused to spray for the bedbugs. He sprayed for the cockroaches, but he did not spray for the bedbugs because we did not have it properly prepped. That was really irritating because nobody ever gave me the list.

    So, they sent me the list and said, “Whenever you get that done, then you can call us again.” In my room, we’re not getting a bit but my daughter and my son in-aw said that they still are getting a tad downstairs. The main room was where the sensation was the worst and we haven't done anything with it. It’s just sitting there so I don't know how bad they are in there. Soon, we are gonna have to get in there because we wanna tear up the carpet and paint and get it prepared so that we can move in there.

    I used to have Terminix about four years ago, but then I didn’t need the service anymore. A friend of a friend who was an exterminator did a bad job. He sprayed up all the pictures and I just had the house painted. The whole thing bled underneath the pictures and I noticed it. It looked like there was a leak, and it wasn't. I called Terminix and told them that I have a bug problem.

    I made the first appointment to initially sign up and somebody was supposed to be here on a Monday. Nobody showed up so I called them and they didn’t have any schedule. They never put me down and I didn’t know the reason. I told the guy that I wasn’t mad. The technician came on a Tuesday and he was a different guy. I asked him about the other guy that I used to have and he didn't know what I was talking about. Then they sent me the other guy that I wanted and he didn’t get the message until the morning, later that night and it wasn’t his fault. It was just bad communication. He was great, professional, a quiet guy, and he went about his business. He took his time and asked me questions.

    Any time I call Terminix, they say that they're gonna come out once a quarter. If I call them that I got a problem, they come out within two days so that’s been fine. They corrected the problem and did a good job. This time around, it wasn’t that bad. Since the technician left, I’ve seen one or two bugs, but they were like little ants. They weren’t any roaches or spiders as well. I would recommend them to anybody else.

    Terminix works on the outside of the house. The technicians usually just call me and tell me they’re coming. We have very decent communication. They do whatever is perfunctory outside. They ask if I need to have them do anything inside but they’ve made it very clear that they don’t usually do the inside. They do a somewhat decent job but it’s not wonderful. As far as I’m concerned, I’m kind of on the fence about whether we are continuing or not, largely because I found mud daubers and its nests, lots of little flying bugs and wasp nests. I’ve got more bugs in my house than I’ve ever had since I went back to Terminix. Today, I have a contractor who uncovered another wasp nest. I feel like they should not be there.

    One time I called for an extraneous event. I tried to call the cell phone number I had for the rep and I couldn’t get an answer. So I had to call the office and mention that I was having some problems, and nobody got back to me. They need to improve their communication. Prior to Terminix, we went for a while with TruTech and we found them very good, and then you end up with someone who doesn’t wanna do what everybody else did before them.

    We had a termite problem and it was in the plumbing. We started off with a different company but because of their service, we ended up switching. We called Terminix and they explained the plan that they had very well about the importance of the yearly check. They came out and they tried to remove them and they were really great. We've been on the yearly plan for them to do the inspection and they follow up. They really do a good job of calling back every year checking and making sure that everything is still fine. We have a draft from one of our credit cards every month, which is pretty seamless.

    The technicians that have come out have been really very respectful to our house, making sure they wear the shoe covers and do some of those things that some companies don’t do. We've had a very good experience with all the technicians that have come out. The technician I had in May was very thorough. He was on time and he did an immediate survey after that to see if we were happy. Terminix's service has given more peace of mind. Once you have termites in Texas and if you wanna sell your home, you would have to say that you've had had them. And having Terminix come and check every year just makes it very easy. If we wanna sell, we have all the records to show that we've been having it inspected since we've had it. I would recommend Terminix.

    I chose to go with Terminix due to the advertisement on TV, and right now, that advertisement ain't nothing but false. I signed up with Terminix for monthly service. I had a great interaction with the tech who came at that time. He's nice and polite. He did what he was supposed to do when he was here. However, I had nobody else to show up since, him or anybody else. I called Terminix and all they did was to call me and tried to sell me something else. That's the only thing I've got and I'm about to get tired of that. One guy did come out, but the only thing he's gonna do is kill termites. I've told him over the phone time and time again that I don't need the termite service yet.

    If I signed up for a monthly service and paid $100 something for it, I expect somebody to be coming by every month to do the service itself. I know we have nothing but just basic insect stuff, but I've been seeing some dead roaches and some live roaches as well. I'm also seeing some ants and spiders out the door, and that was part of the service. There's still a lot of insects around here that Terminix hasn't gotten rid of. The sad part about it is that their guys live about 25 miles from me. Once Terminix would send me another bill, it will not get paid if somebody doesn't start showing up in my house, and I will cancel the service. Terminix has to prove their service to me before I'm gonna buy anything else to go with it. That's just nothing but business sense.

For the service schedule, they normally give me a call and tell me which days are available then give me a rough timeframe, then we just wait in the calls. Terminix sent a technician to our house to look around to see if there was any trace of termites. The technician was very polite the whole time and courteous. He used the booties to cover his shoes and then walked in and he gave me enough time to secure my dog. We guided him towards the places. He looked carefully and then told us there was no problem. Then he went into his car, completed the report and then sent it back to me. It was pretty quick but thorough.

    I bought a new house that has the termite bond through Terminix. About a year after, it was time for renewal. I reached out to them. They were very helpful on the phone. Then the gentleman came out and did the termite inspection and it was adequate. It would've been a little more thorough though. But I do have a brick home and there's not a whole lot of stuff around adjacent to the house that it was not necessary to do a very in-depth inspection. That was good so I renewed the termite bond. And then a little while after that, I decided to let Terminix come out and perform an insect treatment inside the house. It was okay but my expectations were a little bit higher.

    Also, some of the scheduling didn't go as smooth as I thought it could have gone. The guy came out the first time and did a cursory spray. I may have gone with the most basic. I didn't wanna do a quarterly thing. I thought the cost was a little high for a quarterly treatment, so I just had them do a one-time thing. The guy also let me know that if I saw insects after 30 days, that I have to call them out and they would do another treatment.

    So I kept an eye out. Also, when I walked around and showed him some of the things that I had noticed the first time, there were still some small spider webs or some millipedes. He came back the second time and as I walked through with him and showed him some of the other stuff, I showed him a couple of places under the sink. And in the bathroom was one of the places that he didn't think to spray in the cabinets. I just thought that they would have been a little bit more efficient with the initial treatment. Even so, the guy was good.

    I am really pissed at Terminix. They said that I could have a free termite inspection. So I called up, scheduled it and asked if my regular quarterly person could do it. They said no and it had to be an independent termite guy. They also said it would be from 9:00 to 5:00 on a specific date, where I scheduled off to be available during that time. The guy who was supposed to go called up at 10:30 and spent a little bit of time explaining to me why he didn’t come and said that I wouldn’t possibly have termites and if I ever had any questions about bugs, mice, termites or anything, just give him a call and he'd come out.

    I was impressed with the previous episodes, almost every time when Terminix would send me an email saying when my quarterly person is gonna come. The reps from have been perfectly pleasant as well. They gave some excuses why the person didn’t come. Fortunately, I'm home most of the time, but if I was a working out of the home person and took off the whole day to be here, the techs would have been gone a long time ago. For a while, we had the same guy who would call the night before saying he was coming. However, when he didn’t call, I got suspicious and called in the morning to find out he wasn’t scheduled for that day. Still, he has been wonderful and he just didn't get the information that he was supposed to come.

    The last time, it wasn't the same guy. The one who came was a small girl. She didn't come to the door so I finally went out and stood outside the truck thinking she'd notice but she was obviously talking to a guy. It was just horrible. There were so many four-letter words coming out of that truck window. So I decided not to disturb her for a little while and waited. 20 minutes later, I went and made myself a little more obvious at her and she promptly hung up, came in and attended to the job. Still, I haven't had any pest activities since the last service and my place is in good shape except for clothing moths. Even so, Terminix came once they told me I needed to have all my rugs cleaned. They’ve been good about giving me moth traps, but that's all they can do.

    I was having a few spiders here and there and we didn't like having them around so we called Terminix in. We have their service for eight years now, where they come out and do a regular service quarterly. I had an ant problem one time they came out and they took care of the ants before it was time for the next service. They're very efficient as far as taking care of us so we're very happy with them.

    Their customer service came out and did a survey of the whole house. They told me how they were gonna service the house inside and out for me, what they were gonna do when the tech was coming out and what to expect. Being able to get some technicians out here made a great difference. Once they come out, the spiders that came out die right away and it's already taken care of. No more ant issues, no more spider issues, no more nothing. It's always clean.

    They let me know when there's rotted wood on our porch for us to change that which we did 'cause they said it would cause termites to come. We got rid of all the wood around the patio, which they suggested, and put new wood up there. They notice things and let me know what's going on in the house if I need to do something to the house to prevent any kind of issues with termites here. I tell my friends that if they don't want any bugs and ants in their house, they need to get Terminix. They're very good and they'll spray everywhere for them.

    The city had chopped down a tree in our neighbor's yard and it created a multitude of ants coming up in our yard. Since Terminix came to our door, we got them for general pest control and we've been using them since July. Scheduling a service with them has been great. I called them for one day and they came the next day. Though there were too many people over the summer and they couldn't have done the service, they still came the next day. They always try to accommodate which was good. I have to come in the morning and they said they couldn't come in the morning, but they tried so it worked out fine.

    The first guy who did our yard forgot to do the parameter. He did everywhere around the yard but didn’t do around the property, so when the ants came out, they came out all into the front of our yard. At least two days after we had them do that, a huge unexpected rain came. But when they did the outside, some bugs came inside the house, so they had to do the inside. Most of the bugs are gone but we started seeing them again. Another thing is, the technicians didn't leave behind anything so I had to call and the people at the phone say different stuff than the actual person who came. Also, I would like to know how safe the product is that they use in my house. I really don’t like pesticides in the house and I really don’t like anything that could be harmful to human health but I realize we needed to get right of the bugs. Still, I wish they would leave a drop-off flyer about how to protect our health or what are the things we should do after they sprayed.

    We have a quarterly service with Terminix primarily for a rat concern. On one occasion, I got called for the first time when the technician was around the corner, saying, “I’ll be there in 10 minutes.” And I didn’t even know he was coming. More than one occasion, I get called the night before and I didn’t know they were coming, and it was not a good time for me. So, I rescheduled and when you yell at them, they respond quickly. If I have to call, I call in their call center. It was usually easy to speak with someone. They tell me the computer set up the appointments and that they don’t really have control over it. They just see it when the technicians see it.

    The technicians that have come out were usually good and informative. Usually, stop, drop and roll. They don’t spend a lot of time but sometimes they give more service than others. Sometimes they do more spraying and other times they just do the bait box and sprinkle around. There were a couple of guys I’ve seen more often because they come to this area. Other times, I’ve seen different people. But I’ve seen the same person the last couple of times. I usually tag along behind them to try to figure out what they are doing and learn from it. We have put a bait box underneath the deck in an enclosed area. However, the last time the technicians came, the bait in the Terminix box was gone and we’ve seen a lot of cobwebs around. Maybe it’s just the time of year or maybe it’s all the rain, but there's a lot of nets in the backyard.

So, when we moved to a swampy area where there are mice that wanna come in in winter time and ants that wanna be in the house all the time, I called Terminix and talked to a representative, and they easily added the house to the contract. That went very smoothly.

    We have the same person who comes out whenever we need him and does whatever we need him to do. He is very friendly and personable. I'm very satisfied with him and always very happy with his response. One time we had an issue with ground hornets, I called the technician and he was there that day. Ever since we've had Terminix come, we've had no ants. We had a mouse come in last year and Terminix came right out again and put other bait stations out where we thought it might be coming in. Terminix is always very pleasant about doing work in some of the places I don’t wanna go too. When we thought we had something up in our attic, they went up there, looked things over, and put bait stations. I've recommended Terminix to a number of my friends.

    Whenever I schedule a service from Terminix, I just call up and they come out. Their technicians were professional and they told me what I needed to know. They gave me options and cleaned up their mess when they were done. They also closed the gate when they left to keep the dogs in. I had three visits from them. One was for a regular service and the second one was to get the holes in my attic covered with screens. The third one was at my other house which was a start of regular pest control in there. Since I have had their service I have had minimal pest activity in my house, given that we’re here in Texas.

    When we schedule an appointment, it takes so long to get somebody out. But my experience with Terminix overall was excellent. They came out 'cause I called for an extra service for ants inside my home. The contractor is usually the same person and he has been coming to our house for quite a bit.

    Terminix has been working with us for about five years now. We’re signed up on a yearly plan and they come out more than once a year and treat for termites. One time, we called them out because we saw a mark on one of our walls but there was no progression after they came out. Other than that, it has been good so far and everybody that we've encountered has been nice. A year ago, our fence was falling down and the tech asked if I wanted him to prop that up. I said sure and when I came out there, he maneuvered something that I couldn’t figure out how to do. Our fence is now more secured because of him doing that.

But they don’t call and tell me, so there was a lack of communication somewhere, and the biggest problem with them is that they schedule things without checking with people. But I’ve told them not to come unless I’m home, and I can get them in and have the outside sprayed. Recently, their service guy came for a routine visit. He is amazing. He’s very professional and has a good sense of humor. He’s also very thorough. He explains things to me and helps with telling things that I might wanna move away from our house for termites.

    I was with Antimite for many years, and Antimite sold the company to Terminix. Terminix comes out every two months. The original guy that was doing the service was with Antimite and I would have him come in and do the inside and outside especially during the summer. Then, we got in a fight. He was inside and outside, but he didn’t take care of the whole area. He was not thorough and was unprofessional. I talked to him and he said, “Don’t you trust me?” I told him I didn’t. I would go outside and watch where he was going. Then two months ago, Terminix sent a good tech. But then the latest time, they sent a young girl who didn't know what she was doing. I'm not happy with Terminix and they've increased their price to $65, so I am going to check other pest companies.

    We were having a a fruit fly problem from all those heavy rains. So, we signed up with with Terminix and we had nothing but good experiences with them. Scheduling appointments has been very easy and Isaiah is the main technician that has been coming out and treating the facility. He has been pretty helpful and thorough. He also takes me out with him and shows me what he does and explains why he is doing it which is kinda nice. He's been two or three times now and when he initially comes out and treats our place, we experience an improvement. But usually, by the end of the week, the pest activity becomes bad again. The humidity and moisture is kind of causing a bit of a stir. So we are still having a problem and Terminix is supposed to call me either by the end of today or tomorrow to come back out.

    I got a pest contract with Terminix and the last time they came out, I had them get rid of yellowjackets. It was $85 a trip and the tech said it wasn’t a one-time thing and that I would have to do a whole year, but I didn’t wanna do that because I’m on a limited income. He had to come back twice to get all of them and I think they are all gone. I don’t see any flying around. However, I found termites inside the house and they had eaten our base floor before I found them, so I’m keeping my termite contract. Terminix got those screen things all the way around my house and I haven’t seen any sign of the termites, although it’s about time for Terminix to come out and check it.

    Terminix comes on an automatic basis but I get a report from them in the email and on an online account that indicates their results. It's a very favorable service. Everybody's been very considerate and very much integrated in knowing what's going on with the particular premises. They also explain what they do. The only problems I've ever had with them have been with billing because it has been confusing at times. They tend to split it up even though it's an annual billing. They tend to split it up about at certain times when they’re actually doing servicing rather than enumerating it over the course of the whole year period but we were able to sort that out.

    The technicians have been very considerate. They're very explanatory and everything goes very well. I noticed that there's a lot of insects in the desert where I live and we do a perimeter barrier around all the doors and it's very effective. Anything that manages to crawl into the door doesn’t make it more than a few inches With Terminix, you just have to make sure that you understand the subscription that you're engaging and you understand the payment process.

    Terminix came out and did an annual inspection a few weeks ago. When they set up for their service, they emailed me and left me a phone message with a time and date. I called them to accept that and then got an update. The technicians usually come earlier than I expected. They checked around the outside for any kind of termite activity they may see, and then they did an inside inspection as well. The interaction I had with their technicians have always been professional. They always let me know when they arrive, what they found, and when they’re leaving. Terminix has a superior program and it proves to be more effective than the bait stations most of the other companies use. I would definitely recommend them.

    I have quarterly appointments with Terminix which have been automatically set up and the techs send me a message that they're coming. But there were two times when I had to ask them to come in an extra time. I went online and requested an appointment but I had to wait for somebody to call me back. They made me the appointment but I had to wait for about a week. It felt so long 'cause it was a three-step process. I was also going through too many middle people and I wasn't speaking directly to the people who handle my house. It sounded like a computer customer center and not the actual place in Staten Island.

    When the tech comes, he'll spray and then leave. He also asks me if I need anything inside and if I do, I'll let him in. The past two times, I needed them to work on a concentrated area. When the tech came in, he already knew so he went over there and did what he needed to do. The pest activity has been lessened since but they haven't gone away completely. I also had an outbreak again in a certain part of my house. But apart from that, it's been an easy and convenient experience with Terminix and I am satisfied.

They also told me they were gonna drill holes through it and I told them no. I called Terminix and they did a beautiful job and never touched the woodwork, which was worth more than the house.

I've had mice come in the fall and I had killed seven in a month. Also, the neighbors had a problem when they moved out. The techs were supposed to be here on a Wednesday morning but it was 5:36 when I finally got somebody out here. The tech was great and once he got the mouse bait down, the mice infestation cleared right up. And then they came out and had to seal up the house later in the week.

Usually, I just call and schedule, and then it was done, but I lost the branch contact information, so I had to go back to the corporate office. For a while, I had the same person, but Terminix had problems with losing personnel, and you lose your technician, and then you had to start all over again, get a new one and get them acclimated on the job.

    I didn’t get assigned a regular technician, but the last one I had with them was okay. Finally, I got a technician who stayed with them. I had a good experience with Terminix and I enjoyed their services this past year. The pest activity is better after they come out and I don't have to worry about the spiders, the bugs, the ants, and the rodents anymore. I have recommended Terminix to a lot of people.

    Terminix schedules ahead of time, telling me it is time for my checkup, and they come out, and they did inside and outside. I have an annual schedule with them, and they are very good. I inherited them with the house I bought -- they were servicing the house before me and they’ve been doing it for years. My only issue is the expense. They are high compared to any number of other companies I could use. Nevertheless, I’m fine with them.

    Was told by Terminix several times and it is written in their policy that all plants and rocks (we have lava rocks and coral landscaping around property, as well as plants) have to be removed from against building up to 18 inches. We bought a special rake to remove rocks and pulled up multiple plants. Only to have the tenting crew show up and place tent 4 to 5 feet from building, destroying all landscaping and plants. Trampling over many of the plants beyond the 4 feet of the tent. My 80 year old mother and myself, 57 and disabled spent days, removing rocks and pulling up plants 18 inches from structure. It was back breaking work! We had some assistance from lawn care worker, cutting down and removing larger plants, at a cost to us.

    All that work and expense, only to have them cover all plants and landscaping, 4 to 5 feet from building! The Terminix workers even moved some potted plants a few feet, but still less than 4 feet, covering them with the tent! Also they removed a wagon, cart, and bags of mulch, outside the fence, onto the front lawn, where anyone passing by could steal them, instead of placing them inside the fenced in yard, where they were to begin with! Our place was a lush tropical mini paradise, now it looks so sad, with dead landscaping 4 to 5 feet around the property! We have 2 contracts with Terminix, one for termites, the other for insects and rat traps.

    A few months ago the rat trap technician accidentally left the rat poison out, on top of one of the rat traps, my little dog found the rat poison! He came running down the sidewalk with the rat poison in his mouth. I rushed him to the vet and contacted Terminix. They were very apologetic and agreed to pay the vet bill, almost $200.00. I still have not received the money!!! I understand it was an accident, and the tech was genuinely upset, and Terminix agreed to pay, but they have not, so far. Now all this damage they caused to the landscaping. Shame on you Terminix, I am a reasonable person and I am waiting for you to take responsibility.

    We got a one-year contract with Terminix and they came out twice for termite treatments. They came when they said they would. The only way to get rid of the termites is to take the infested piece of cabinetry and replace it. The technicians were courteous and professional. Everybody called when they were coming. But the termites never went away - just maybe for a period but we never eradicated them. But the service was fine. They did what they could.

    I have two accounts with Terminix and they come out to inspect for termites. They come out quarterly for one account and for the other one they come out once a year. Our interactions with their technicians were fine. So far, the ones that I talked to were able to answer all my questions. However, Terminix has a computer system that needs to be brought into the 21st century. I wanted to know when the technician is coming so I can be at my place. They can put me in their computer but they can’t schedule me if I wanted the fourth Tuesday of the month that is coming up. I get notices for when I’m not supposed to have somebody. Still, the individual technician always calls me and he catches what time I want. So, we schedule what it is normally supposed to be.

    We also have lots of trees and lots of spiders. I also found roaches outside that have been killed before they could get in a couple of times and their service seems to take care of most of them. I also hired Terminix when we had a rodent problem around here. They came out and did a bunch of stuff but I just wasted my money. The treatment was not very effective. They were supposed to come back and I had to call since they did not come back. Also Terminix cannot do anything about one of my worst problems: chipmunks and moles. Moles have ruined my yard, even when I have tried to re-landscape and dug up, and put in a new one. Despite the issues I'm having, Terminix spraying around the dead doorframes and under the sinks and putting the granules around the base on the outside has worked pretty well.

    We're getting ready to sell the house and our realtor said that most likely, the buyer will require a termite inspection, treatment, and some kind of a contract. Last Friday, we had the free termite inspection from Terminix. The young man named Matt came out and did it very mannerly. He was very nice, courteous, forthright, and friendly. He looked underneath the house and found some active termite activity or infestation as well as some water damage. But he told me that he couldn’t work all over under the house because of the duct work and the insulation. And he said, to do a further inspection, he would need to get somebody smaller than him to get under there. I talked to my realtor and asked her what she thought we should do about it, and she said we should wait and see.

    Other than that, scheduling the service went perfectly. My wife and I have used Terminix for years and we always used them by phone. But for the first time, I went online to do it and it worked out. We have an annual contract with them and we get two inspections per year, then the treatments are done once a quarter. Since we got their service, the pest activity in the house has been practically nonexistent. Occasionally, we have red wasps come back and recently, we had some ants coming in to the house. Also, we had some other minor things like a mouse or two, but it was always been taken care of real quickly.

    I got with Terminix through Capelouto, which I happened to really like. I wasn't happy about being taken over by Terminix, but it is what it is. They come out every other month for pest control, and once a year for termites. They're very nice, but they're the same people that worked for Capelouto, so I very much expect them to be just the same as they were before. Anytime we have a problem, they come back. They're very helpful and willing to do whatever it takes to get things done. The only thing that's different is that Terminix gives a constant hard sell for things that I don't necessarily feel like I want or need, which wasn't the way it was before. It seems like every time they come out to do the termite inspection, they're trying to sell me on something that costs thousands of dollars. But as long as they treat us right and the employees are happy and doing a good job, we'll all stay right where we are.

    Terminix does inspections for me. Those have always been satisfactory once we establish the time and the date. The techs that they’ve sent have been fine but sometimes, I find what looks like flying ants or termites in my swimming pool. Also recently, I had a bill sent to me which said that it was time to renew my Terminix policy. I called in to find out what they were talking about because I just sent them $270 for dry wood termites.

    Another time, I had insulation put in my attic and that was all done and I had sent them a check for $6,360 which they cashed on 9/17. They then told me that I still owe $6 on it. I asked them what that was for but I haven’t heard back. Still, the agent that I talked to, Brandon, assured me that it was gonna be taken care of. I’m surprised that they got this billing thing mixed up. I paid the bill in full so I'm wondering why they would be billing me for an additional $6.

    Terminix comes out to our home every two or three months for rodent and bug inspections. I had to schedule an appointment with them about two times, but for the rest of the time the rep usually calls or texts me that he's coming out and I usually get an email from the company. The technician is really good. We talk about his family, so it is a personal-type touch. However, I still see more bugs than I did before him. The spiders keep coming back. Last night my daughter and I were talking about a huge roach that wanted to invade my cabinet.

    I had a concern at one time when I had someone to come out initially. The two young men were doing the encapsulation underneath the house and they forgot to hook up the electrical component, so the device that I keep in my home that regulates temperature was not turned on. They discovered that it was not done on one of their regular visits, so I filed a complaint indicating that there should be a refund or at least a decrease in my monthly fees because that was something I was not aware of until someone else pointed it out to me. I completed a letter and I submitted it. I also mentioned that to my regular technician and he said he would follow up with the corporate office. It has been taking a while and I'm looking forward to a resolution. I also got a little card in the mail that said that my monthly bill will increase by about $4.

    We have a networking committee in this town and someone put on there that they thought that the technician from Terminix was not using the right chemicals for their home. They weren't pleased and they weren't recommending Terminix. They put that on a big webpage that we usually use to find people that we want to complete work in our home. I saw that and I told my technician about it.

    I was shocked to see such a high rating for Terminix. They have the most unprofessional scheduling and business practices I have ever seen. My wife and I work, so we can only do weekends or evenings. We have repeatedly told Terminix this, but they keep scheduling us for random times like 8AM-noon Tuesday. Sometimes they tell us when they are scheduled, other times they just show up -- and bill us for a "house call", which means they supposedly sprayed the yard... except that we live in a condo so we know it's not true.

    Rescheduling an appointment is very difficult. You have to call the national number, which has to contact your area manager, who has to call you back. Ours NEVER do -- I have had to escalate issues all the way to corporate. When they do call you back, they are completely booked for the next month. One time we had an ant problem, and it took them 9 weeks before they finally came out. The people at the national number who coordinate the scheduling also used to be rude, but this has improved lately. On the positive side, the technicians are very competent and friendly, and they understand and acknowledge that their scheduling is some of the worst in the country.

    We reached out to the corporate office of Terminix about a job where there was some damage to my property. Then they reached out to their local division and sent out a member of their local team. The professionalism of the reps that I talked to over the phone was there and I never felt like there was a time that they didn’t know what they were talking about. But there was a lack of professionalism on the day of the job since no one quite knew exactly when the house would be treated or if the house should be tented because they were confused about what date they scheduled the house to be tented. So, there was a back-and-forth for a couple of hours. Eventually, though, the issue was resolved but that took longer than was needed.

    Since the problem was resolved, I would recommend Terminix. In fact, everything was well cared for after. As far as the job that they did and getting rid of the termites, we haven’t had any problems. The termites are not here and that for me would be the main factor in using them. But I would advise people to follow up with the corporate office if they have any issues since the local branch is a bit unorganized. The corporate office is good at following up with the local division to ensure that they get back to you.

This is the second time I’ve had to make a complaint. The first time I made it 10:00 at night, and early in the morning there was a reply. Somebody came out to see us to talk about it.

    But the technicians have been very polite and helpful. They do a good job. If I asked them to come inside, they would. I still have a little spider problem, but I don't think it’s their fault. It’s just two of us here, and as soon as the spiders find that you’re not using a room they will come. But then when I tell the attendant about it, they usually come in and try to spray. It doesn’t take away the problem, but it has decreased it. Overall, I’ve been very pleased with Terminix. It’s a good and professional company, and I’ve had no significant problems dealing with them.

    The cost for this annual treatment which is $240 is very high though and it has gone up every year. They come out, do an inspection and they put about 26 little bait traps all around the house. They just open those up and look at the bait and if it’s in good condition or nothing has been eating at it, they just put it back and don’t have to replace anything. Also, most places give you a cost for yearly inspections and it’s good for a number of years but at Terminix, it goes up. Their service technician was very friendly though and he seemed to know what he was doing and he had the right tools.

    I just signed up with Terminix, and it’s supposed to be their second application today. The first treatment, the techs came out and did a fine job. They asked me what kind of problem I was having, and I told them. One tech sprayed inside, and one put granules outside, around the foundation of the house. It worked well. Terminix called back to schedule a more thorough inspection of the house but it had bad timing, and I had to cancel. So the guy is scheduled between 3:00 and 5:00 today to be here. I called yesterday and told them they can go ahead and schedule the other inspection if they want to, and they said they might do both at the same time. Still, I haven’t seen any ants since the first service.

    Terminix came out a week ago for a regular monthly service they do on the outside of the house. They took care of the outside. They knocked down the cobwebs from the upper areas. What they did seems to be working. However, I got crows that fly in every night at sunset and they don’t wanna do anything about them.

    Terminix came aboard a couple of months ago. They come out once a month and as needed. If I had a situation, I would call them and they would come out. Recently, they came out, did their thing, and left. The technician was great and seemed very knowledgeable and easy to work with. He went about what he said he was gonna do and he did a thorough job. Since I've been with Terminix, the pest activity flared up a little bit again but that is primarily due to the outside influences. If someone asks about Terminix, I would tell them to give them the opportunity.

    I first signed up for exclusion service in February & attempted to have follow-up service that was part of contract but never received. I've been requesting a refund since August but continue to have no responses to my emails. Own phone messages left with the branch manager.

    Terminix comes out to my place to do an annual inspection. On occasion, there have been issues where I've had to call them for things between those inspections. They work with me but there are times when they don't show up and they're not the most efficient in terms of committing to their schedule. Also, while their representatives are fine, I never seem to be able to get somebody at the local office that serves my account. Instead, I'm usually dealing with somebody at the national office when I call. Furthermore, the professionalism of their techs varies a lot. There are some who are knowledgeable and there are others whom I wouldn't let in my house anymore now that I know how they work. Since Terminix's service for termite protection, pest activity has been about the same at my place.
