We had cockroaches and Terminix has been out at our place many times. I call them for service and I've been well pleased with the technicians who have been at our place. They've been doing a good job. I had one technician who has taken care of me on a regular basis and he turned out to be one of the best people I knew. He kept coming, fighting for me and tried to give me tips on what to do. I've been dealing with the cockroaches for a year and a half now and it took several treatments to finally get rid of them because the next door neighbor's place is infested with them. In the end, using Terminix worked out well and I suggest others to use their services.

I've been a Terminix customer since 1994. They come out once every three months and send an e-mail one week ahead. I still have a problem with very tiny insects in the bathroom and some mice that sneak in there, but they suggested to do an enclosure around the house. I'd also like them to choose better chemicals.

I had my first appointment with Terminix. Their technician was great and she placed a lot of traps and bait. However, I'm still seeing pest activity here and there so I wanted them to come back out. I was supposed to have a free checkup a while back but they never came. Nevertheless, I'm good with their service and I highly recommend them for coming out and getting the job done.

Terminix comes to my house for quarterly service. They came out and sprayed for ants. And when they sprayed for ants, it made it worse than it made it better but I haven't had the time to even call them back or anything. And then I also need to get a hold of them again because we got lots of spiders and stuff in our front yard. And the ants, they love that stuff. But other than that, they did a pretty good job. They’ll work with me with the schedule. The technicians are friendly. If you ask a question, they're gonna answer you. I like that about Terminix too. They give a good service with their timeliness and helps you out that way if you're working or had a bad experience.

We had a recurring problem with bugs. I tried curing that problem myself. I had under-dose in chemicals, spraying there and doing this and that but I just couldn’t seem to get it under control but Terminix did. Terminix came right out and took care of it. They've sent two different guys and the service has been wonderful. We called them up and within a week the technician was there. And I haven't seen any more bugs.

A friend suggested Terminix and we got them on the fall of last year. Our recent experience with them was good. We had some spring critters that we didn’t want to turn into anything bad, and they came out at the end of the season to spray the yards for mosquitoes. The mosquitoes are still heavy in the yard but I haven’t seen anything inside the house. When I called, the rep set up the service and then took care of the rest. Additionally, he lets me know how he's gonna take care of the house or the yard and what he's gonna do whenever he does a service call. Terminix is a great company, has reasonable prices and is one that I trust.

I just bought a house and I wanted to get it checked out. And scheduling a service online with Terminix went well. The Terminix technicians were very nice. One of them did the outside and one did the inside, so it went really quick. It seemed like they were only here about 10 minutes and they treated my entire home in that time. I’ve been pleased with it so far. I’ve seen a few bugs here and there but that’s to be expected.

I'm an old customer with Terminix but we moved to a different city. We stayed in an apartment for a year and had a house built. We were getting a lot of spiders and I called to initiate a new service with Terminix. They got me within the week and it was good with their rep over the phone and the technician. My husband saw pest activities on the inside and I saw them in the windows. The technician did the inside and he said he did the outside but I'm still seeing bugs. Now, I'm seeing them on the floor and on the walls. And I saw a roach which I have never had in any residence that I've lived in. It has been almost a month and I was gonna call Terminix back.

I've been with Terminix for years and their technicians have always been friendly. I had them do an inspection not too long ago and the tech that came was fine. I asked him while he was going around looking for termites if he would also look for any place where bees might be getting into my house, and he was very nice about doing that. As long as they know what they're doing, I'm not gonna have a problem with my household.

I've got Terminix on a service contract and they come routinely. I started them when I bought the house two years ago. I don't have pests and I didn't have pests to start with. When it's time for my service I get an email that lets me know, and then I also get a phone call shortly thereafter by whoever is coming to let me know they're coming on that date. If I need to reschedule, I do it online and everything seems to work out well. All the technicians I've dealt with are very professional and they've taken care of everything I needed and let me know if there was anything that caught our eye. Also, they work well with my dogs.

There are bugs around the house so I got a quarterly service from Terminix and it has been great. Fortunately, I have the same tech, so he knows the house and knows what to do.

I've been with Terminix for three to five years and my experience with them has been great. We had issues with ants before but since Terminix has been coming out and spraying and since we've been on their maintenance program, we haven’t had that issue and I haven't noticed any creatures or ants. But it's important to have the preventative part of the service, so I wouldn't cancel the service now that I don’t see any ants because the ants could be back.
I have the service of Terminix on an automated schedule so the techs come out every three months. Terminix calls in advance or sends an email to let me know when they have scheduled the tech to come out. The service is mostly done outside and I'm not home when the techs come, but my interactions with them have all been positive. The last service I had with Terminix was the outside spraying for ants as a precautionary measure. The service of Terminix has been helpful and I'd let people know the results that I've seen in my situation.

I was with an exterminating company out of Anderson and they sold my contract down the road, and Terminix bought my contract. I have an automatic appointment with them. Each year I pay them a fee and they come out, inspect, take a look at things and write a report. And this had been going on for quite some time. They’ve been very helpful to me with any problems. I have two properties with them and they do both of them on the same time that they’re here in Redkey. I recently had them for an annual inspection and my experience was fine. The guy was friendly and sociable. He did his job and seemed to know his business. Overall, we’re satisfied with Terminix. They do the work professionally and get on about their business.

One of my aunts referred me to Terminix and we had a good experience with them. They showed up on time according to the text we received. And the guy who came covered all of the areas that we thought had activities. It was a good visit. They sprayed three weeks ago and the guy who came that time saw a lot of spiders. So this last visit was a follow-up to check the activity. There are less spiders since then.

I had bed bugs from my granddaughter going around the places she shouldn’t have been in February and I called Orkin. They said that they were gonna have to heat my house up to all those degrees and it’d be like over $2000. Then I saw that Terminix was a lot cheaper and they came out right away. They treated my house. They came back a week then they came back in two weeks, then came back a month later and I didn’t even have any bed bugs. I thought that they saw one after the initial spraying so I haven’t had any more problems.
And then I went ahead and did the annual pest control with the bed bug addendum just in case, so I wouldn’t have to pay full price again for bed bug problem if it came back. The bed bug guy, Bob, was super nice and awesome. I enjoyed him coming and he was nice to talk to. Recently, I’ve had ants too so I thought I should have them come to spray for my ants. I like them. They were quick, pretty considerate, and were in and out. I’d recommend them.

Our parents had the Terminix service before we bought the house from the estate. We did a carry on and we really don't want to be without the Terminix service. We've been a customer for 5 years now and they come out quarterly. They normally call us to say that it's time for a visit and we either concur or say, "No, we can't do that. We'll have to do it later." The techs come out and do their thing. They checked for spiders and other infiltration around the house and garage and treat the affected areas. If we're home, they might talk to us. If we're not, they leave a note as to what they've done and then send the bill. And since we don't have any infestation, they've taken care of the problem. It's a good service and we've been very satisfied with it. Also, we have recommended them.

We had a wood shake roof that attracts a lot of bugs and that also then attracts predatory spiders especially a brown recluse spider. One time, my wife got out of the shower and picked up her towel and a brown recluse spider fell on her and bit her just below her shoulder. We ended up having to get her to the hospital over that. She got better but we realized we needed to get treatments and we just moved to that house because I got married. I had Terminix in my previous house in town so I called up and had them carry over the service to the second house. They had been good before and so I stayed loyal to them.
We also had ants and an occasional spider. We also had a previous experience with mice that somehow got in and we got rid of them but we had bait traps set around the basement and periodically, I want to make sure those are checked to make sure there's no further activity. And they've been untouched for the last two or three times so we're feeling better that's under control now.
The technicians have been very professional and very considerate about not tracking in the house. They put on slip-on shoes over their feet to make sure they don’t track anything in. They've been very thorough with getting all the areas that I ask them to. They've climbed into areas that are awkward and difficult to get into and no matter if it's a small, wiry guy or a bigger fellow, they all get down and do whatever has to be done. I've been impressed that they've been patient in treating back quarters and all that type thing that were needed. Even though they've had different people from time to time, they've always been good. And even if they were in a hurry or impatient, they still took all the time needed to take care of me.
However, scheduling is an area that needs some improvement. I just called to get a follow-up ant treatment and the automated message set up automatically. Here we are in early June and they said their service would be July 23rd, which was far out. Years ago, they were responsive and came right out. I've seen them go from a local office that you sent the appointment through to a more centralized one. That was when there has been a bit of disconnect between what's happening at home or here. And lately if say that I need appointments in the afternoon because I can't do morning, sometimes they go ahead and schedule in the morning. There are no charts being followed sometimes.
And the last time I got a call from the service person saying, "You're on my schedule for tomorrow morning, is that okay?" It was a surprise to me. They don't always let me know when the appointment is and it's been a short notice sometimes. So, I'm a little challenged by their scheduling process right now and that's an area that needs some serious look to be customer-centered and to better plan for the customer's needs. And if they have to have a fill-in appointment, they need to have something in the night. And if they're gonna schedule it, they need to communicate that clearly to me either by a text or an email but I have not even gotten a notification from them. They just told me about it the next day. So, that's a planning area that's a bit of a challenge.
Right now, I get an 800 number to call and schedule, and I don’t feel like I'm getting connected to my local people. In fact, I need to call them right now for a midway treatment because we have had more ants and some other bugs so we need to get that addressed. But that means that I need to find a block of time to call them and set up an appointment. But when they come out, they do very good.

I have a Terminix insurance that I pay quarterly and they inspect the property once a year which I usually request it to be done in May. I also get Terminix to spray the porch as well as the whole house once or twice a year. Their techs have been fine and the pest activity has been good. However, the billing has been ridiculous. From the beginning, I'd get multiple bills, usually because of the quarterly service, even after I've paid it and it has been very frustrating. I'd just tear them up after I've paid. It's probably automatic but they should just pull that after the bill's been paid. I've discussed that with the technicians, including John who I've had for many years.

Scheduling with Terminix can sometimes be a little eventual. When I talk to one person they say they're gonna schedule it in the month that we’re in, but if I talk to somebody else, they say they can take care of it. There’s no consistency in how things are done and sometimes it becomes a hassle. For the recent service, they scheduled a time that worked for me and they did the normal maintenance. The pests are not getting in my home because they’re doing the proper work on the outside of my home like they always do. However, now I need to reschedule the next service because it's only two weeks apart and it should be a month apart. There are a couple of issues, but it doesn’t mean I don’t like them. I recommend them.

We're on a plan with Terminix where they come regularly and that's been fine. Now and then, we see the occasional spiders and little creatures that lots of people have different names for. We've had different technicians over time, but I have also seen the same person a couple of times too, so there's been some consistency. They call in advance and we mostly do exterior service, so we don't see them a lot, but they've always handled things great. When we had a problem last summer with ants, they were right out here and solved it very quickly, and we haven't seen those ants since so it's good. The only thing that would cause us to discontinue service is the cost. It's expensive. It's worth it for those of us in the household who are squeamish but if it were cheaper that would be great.

I was not too happy with my latest experience with Terminix. I had a different technician and the guy was supposed to move the refrigerator and spray behind it. The first tech, John, did that before and he advised me that the Terminix techs are always gonna come and remove the refrigerator because the roaches always concentrate on that appliance. Also, he said that the roaches are always gonna be there even though I'm not gonna see them. They are always gonna be right behind the refrigerator and the cabinets although the cabinets were brand new.
The guy who came the latest time didn’t do what John said. He went upstairs and sprayed really fast and then he came downstairs and sprayed there too. He said he didn’t see any roaches and I told him he had to go downstairs in the basement and spray everything. And he went downstairs like Flash Gordon and came out. I asked him if he had sprayed outside and he said he doesn't do that. And I told him that John told me that everybody has to spray outside even in the backyard. He said he doesn't have to spray up in the backyard either. And I left that issue alone.
I didn’t have any roaches after John came out. But there were little roaches come on, and he put little boxes on it and now the boxes are removed. And because I have new tenants in the house, he told me the house is empty and all of them will be killed. And then he told me to call every two weeks if I need a service or if I don’t need it, I still have to call just to follow up to make sure there are no roaches.

I have some problems with my Terminix coverage. I have no documentation of inspection and no renewal of my insurance contract with them. So, I give them about $350 a year and I have no documentation of what I paid for. This has been going on for a couple of years now and that’s bad business. The last ticket I have is about five years old. I gave a formal complaint online this spring but I heard nothing of it. I need the annual renewal certificate that says I'm covered and it expires next year. I also need an inspection report when the guys finish. They used to leave the papers for that, but that doesn’t happen anymore. Other than that, they treat for anything when they come out. They put sticks around the house and look at them.

A property that’s in a relocation program is for sale and as part of the relocation program, the relocation company that took over the marketing of that home and acted as the seller had inspections done. In those inspections, they found termites and the homeowner they were working with had Terminix come out and do a bid. When the relocation company took possession of the home, they wanted me to go ahead and have the treatment done so we wouldn’t have to worry about it later on. When the technician was out there, I met him, let him in and then left. He called and the power had flipped off in the house so he couldn’t drill.
It’s fairly quick from my office, so I ran back out, opened things up so he could finish what he was doing and we couldn’t find the flip. However, he had an extension cord and got it worked out. Everything was good and the reps explained things. We also had some siding work done and the treatment was important so that the new siding did not get torn up too. Terminix had to look at the job again so I met with one person for that and he looked around to make sure nothing had changed. Doing business with them was seamless and the reps were very nice, professional, and polite. They were easy to work with, knew what they were talking about, did a good job and got there quickly.

We lived down the country and the house we lived in at the time had a lot of wood. We wanted termite protection and the insurance that Terminix offers for termite damage, so we went with them and we've been with them now for four years. When Terminix came out recently, we were at a different house and we got their service for termites. The house is wood-sided and there was old termite activity, although very minor, that the previous owners had not addressed, so there was a potential for new termite activity.
It was great when we called to have a technician come out. We got a quote from their Topeka, Kansas office. The reps were very professional, on time, and answered all my questions. They came out, inspected the house, and gave me a price, and we decided to go with them.

Scheduling the service was easy but, on the day that I was doing it, their online scheduling was not working so I ended up calling them. And then, my husband met with the technicians that came out and was pleased with their service and everything that they did. We haven't had any pest problem in our home since then. I also appreciated the communication by email when they were coming out. In fact, I received texts and emails about their visit. I would recommend Terminix.

I was in the hospital and one of my boys came back and found ants in every place. He called his brother not knowing that I had Schendel normally, but Henry, my older son that lives here knew the guy that does the service. And so, the guy came over and got rid of the ants. What he sprayed worked, and he also left a little ant trap that looked like an upside-down fast-food ketchup container. So, from what I can see and the kids said, he did great. And I'm thankful for him for coming and getting it taken care of.

I made an appointment for Terminix then had to change it. After they gave me a new appt the person never showed up. They said someone on their end rescheduled it without telling me. So they were supposed to 2 days later on a day I had a Dr appt. I was running a bit late, called them at 12:47, told them I might not get him in time, they said they would let the guy know to spray outside first til I got there. I arrived at home at 1:15. He left a note with the time on it of 1:10pm so I missed him by 5 min. Called him 2xs and he never called back, called company and they also tried to call him and couldn't reach him. I am not very happy with this company. I told them if they couldn't get out tonight I was going to cancel and go with someone else.

I've had Terminix for a long time and they come when I call them. They recently came for our quarterly service and they sprayed the house. We were getting some spiders and pests in the house. Since they've come out, I have not seen any spiders, but I'll call them as soon as I do. But we're having an issue right now with them and their termite treatment. We keep getting letters from them saying that they'll do it for $24 plus a month. But then, when I called the guy, he said that it would cost us $1,000. The cost going from $24 a month to $1,000 doesn’t make sense to me. But other than that, I've had good experience with Terminix.

We signed up with Terminix for a spray for mosquitoes. We have a regular service and they've done it twice now for us. On the last one, they said they provided an updated formula and it works not only with mosquitoes but some other yard insects as well. We have seen a marked improvement in our backyard concerning mosquitoes especially so, we feel good so far. And the technicians have been absolutely wonderful. They always call first, let me know that they're coming, and they come right when they say they're gonna come. So, I always know when to expect them. And then if I'm home, we can have a conversation about anything that I particularly want them to do. But even if I'm not home, they will go ahead and do things on schedule and leave information for us at the door.
The other thing that we have in addition to the by-monthly visits, I can call them at anytime and someone will come to address the problem we have. Say like we had an invasion of ants or even with termites in the house that we hadn't see for something, they'll be there. All I have to do is call them and they'll come. We have them do a full treatment where they treat all around and in the house if we want or anything from ants. They've even helped when we had some critters getting in to our attic. They came up, helped to clean that out, and sprayed it. It was very helpful.

The service provided by Terminix was in the house in New Hampshire and it’s a seasonal situation where it needed some taking care of. Various heads of barriers broke down and the house had some ant problems. I scheduled the service online and then I received the call from Stacy from Concord, New Hampshire and they had an opening that was earlier than what was booked. We were able to do that so that was good.
I talked to Stacy because I’ve been continually getting email from Terminix about scheduling my next service which would be due in August. These things started coming on the first part of June. When you go to their software, you cannot schedule any service beyond 60 days from the date that you now are at. So all the time, I was getting these ridiculous emails. I was getting to the point where I was gonna call and get the service to get done with it. If the company wants to book out for three months, they should open that window up so people can actually do it. I called Stacy in Concord and told her the same thing. She was very kind and opened up the scheduling part on her screen and was able to make the appointment for the day and the time that we wanted. The first and second go was July. The tech who came was very polite, efficient and he did a good job. Since the service, the pest activity has been much better.
Being barraged by emails and messages about completing my account and my service is not helpful and it makes you lose the fact quickly that the service and the people were good. It becomes annoying and I felt like I was being stalked. The service was great, the follow up, the people and everything has been good but if I were not in possession of the phone number for Concord, I couldn’t resolve a couple of issues.

The only thing I thought different was when the representative came out, I might have misunderstood what he said they were gonna do. I thought he told me they spaced the old hole that they did on this house about every 18 inches. But they told me, "Well, it was every 8 or 6 inches." And when the people came out to do it, they did it over the original one which was 18 inches apart. I found out and it was strange.

My house doesn’t have a basement. It has a crawl space and he didn’t have any qualms at all about going down into that nasty crawl space and spraying his special dust powder around. I tried to offer him a towel because it's dirty down there but he already had his own towel and booties so it was no trouble at all. He wiped them out in one fell swoop and I've just kept Terminix as a preventative since then.
I've occasionally seen ants at certain times of the year and I've given them a call. They've come out and put some poison out, and they've been wiped out in a day or two. So far, Terminix is doing a fine job. I've continued to have them come quarterly for 10 years. It is a great company and worth the money.

He didn't find anything but he recommended if we wanted to do the treatment plan. We have ants and I've been spraying them but I'm thinking of calling Terminix to come out and do it because it's a losing battle. The tech told me when they came out that if the regular ants eat the bait stations they put in, it would kill them. But the bait stations do not attract ants, it's only to termites.
Terminix is a little expensive. The guy told me the first treatment plan's rough cost was gonna be around $1,300 but he gave us a discount. I had a coupon and he said that he had given me a better one than that. And it cost about $900. They put 16 or 17 bait stations out because they needed to use so many of them. But he said that the payment would be down to around $300 next year. The people who live across the way on the lake that we're on had termites in their house. They said it was very expensive to get rid of it. So, Terminix is like a peace of mind. What we included in the policy, they guarantee that if we get termites, they would pay for all the damage and refund the cost. I would recommend them.

Terminix is fine. Looking back at the records which goes all the way back to 2016 and further so we have been a Terminix customer for a long time now. They come and they treat the property twice a month. The technician has access to the building so he normally comes in on a Saturday morning. He treats the areas that needed to be treated inside and out. After that, he submits an invoice to Equifax. However, the invoice needs to be sent to Collier.
I have talked to the technician on the phone. We had an outstanding balance and the service was temporarily suspended. We paid all our outstanding balances and I never saw the guy or I never got anything from Terminix. He was supposed to forward me the invoices that he had sent but I never got those although I am getting the current invoices.
We have a new AP process and I really need Terminix to follow that to make sure that their invoices get paid in a timely manner. Right now, they're setting the invoices to the address of service which is not where the invoices need to go. I was trying to reach someone at Terminix so that we could get the billing information corrected and they go on to a call center so I can't talk with the same person. I do have a person that I'm working with on the accounts payable side but being able to get that person to have them send me invoices correctly is a little challenging right now. It's a mess.

So, I called to reschedule a re-treatment for today 06/06/2018 between 10-Noon appointment with notice that if they rescheduled, did not confirm or show up to cancel my contract. Well, guess what yap same thing. No Show, No communication so I called this morning and the phone person was nice and said she emailed five managers.

I called Terminix, because of favorable reviews, for a pest problem (mice) in the attic and garage. The salesman recommended a very expensive solution to which we agreed. Terminix came in and closed entry points where pests were coming in and guaranteed that we would not have any other problems. The next day we saw mice again, so we called the salesman and he didn't really want to deal with us, but after our urging, brought us some mice traps to put down ourselves. After another call to the salesman when we again saw mice, he ignored us. I called the main customer service number and complained. Finally a manager called me and then gave me his direct number and he ensured that a technician came back out to correct the problem. The big sale was done, so little did we know that everything must go through the 1-800 customer service line (a central dispatch somewhere in the US for everything) or through a website account.
If you deal with Terminix, there is no direct contact or local customer service. It is extremely insulated to channel customers through these two portals for service or complaints. Now I am having issues with the financing company, and I had to call them because they sent me two different payments with two different accounts and had to leave a message and now must wait for a return call from the financing company. Really feel like once they have the money, you must figure it out. I would not recommend them, there is no local support, the business is insulated and internet-based, and if you have problems, good luck. The technicians performing the services have been fine, but you can't discuss billing or service problems with them, they are there for a specific purpose. Management likes to stay behind the scenes.

I've been with Terminix for two weeks now but I had it when I lived in California, but we hadn’t used it for several years. We schedule our services online and it was very easy. I just put that I wanted to have someone come do an inspection for termites and they scheduled it. They were here very quickly. They sprayed around the house, but I'm still noticing stuff so I may have to call them back out.
I had one very pleasant and one bad experience with them. When they came to do the termites, their technician drilled down through the front step down into our basement and threw a metal like over the flushing where the front door is. He drilled six holes that weren't necessary and he said it was that the salesman had put the wrong place for him to drill on there, but he said he felt like he hit something and wanted to check. He had hit four holes into the threshold so they filled it in with cement from the topside and some little cork thing and said it should be good. But I'm really hoping when we get a big rain it doesn’t leak into our basement.
The guy was super nice and explained what he was gonna do, but then that happened so we were a little disappointed. We were also supposed to have our initial pest thing the same day but somebody had messed up our schedule so they ended up having to come the next day. And there again, he really tried hard to do a good job to make us happy and and took care of us that way.
But when they first started and the guy came to check because we had had a swarm of termites around the front door, he had a contract and did it wrong. He put that we were gonna put $1800 down so he checked our credit and said that we have good credit and only needs 10% down. I called him back and said that it was not what we agreed to. We were gonna make monthly payments over 18 months. So he came back, put the credit through again and they wanted 50% down but it was not what we agreed to. He wrote up the contract, turned it in and it came back 24 months instead of 18 months. It seems to be a nightmare trying to get it all right. We're just gonna try to pay it off within the 90 days.

If it's not convenient, press this and then it links you to their page and then you can either reschedule or cancel it.

They're doing a great job in the pest market and especially where we live. Also, I've had a couple of really good techs. There was one time where a guy only came once and I didn’t know him, but generally the same guy comes all the time and he asks me if I have anything that I'm concerned about.

I have had nothing but grief from these people since they showed up. A friend highly recommended them so I thought I would try. First off the encapsulation. They sold me on to put under the house is crap! The dehumidifier they put in first was not installed correctly. When they came out to inspect it 7 months later, they found that it has been leaking under the house for 7 months, causing more mold than what was already there. Then a month later the device started to mess up and you can hear it through the floor as it was about to burn up, after a few weeks they came out and replaced it again. I could of saved myself about $5000 worth of headache if I wanted to screw up my house with mold myself.
The bug service is spotty at best. Not sure what they are spraying, but it doesn't seem to be any sort of bug repellant. More like a water, hasn't done anything for bug nor spiders. If they mix it themselves then they need to re-read the directions. They have a truck with a hose on it full of bug repellant they say but they insist on using a 1 gallon pump sprayer. Nowhere near the volume that would of come out of the truck mounted device. Now the big thing. They have not been to my house in 7 months for various reasons, but the still manage to STEAL $178.87 out of my account for service that were not rendered. I have tried to contact them, but their Call Center will not let you talk to anyone of importance to get the matter resolved. I would not recommend these people to anyone.

Just the inside ones every three months would be a very successful treatment route regimen.
I also had Theodore in Maryland who took care of me for 18 years. He went from being a technician to a regional manager. He always took care of my house once a month.

They treat my home as if it was their home and they look for things and look outside the box. I’ve had two snakes in my garage which was a little scary. They are good at rescuing me.
However, Dave discovered a terrible thing that had happened. Many of my things were destroyed by this contractor who was a bully and physically pushed me out of the way and brought in a wood-eating fungus. He brought in his manager to clarify what it was and they determined what the remediation would be. The builder said he was going to remediate it because he admitted it was their fault, but he canceled the remediation. I think he was gonna drive me out of here. Wrong. It’s my home. I called Dave and asked, "What do I do?” He said we had to act immediately.
They did the remediation and they put in a professional dehumidifier. I chose the next to the highest one. It turned out it was faulty. I identified it and they followed through it. And that was because of Dave. He stood up for what was right because I couldn’t get anywhere with his managers.

They found bed bugs in one of the bedrooms, so they had the guy come back a week or two later and do my whole house. He sprayed inside the house and looked for any bed bugs, then he sprayed the outside of my house. They were very friendly. They asked me what kind of issues I was having and I told them. I took all my carpeting out of my house and got all new carpeting because I don't like bugs. That cost me some money but it's well worth it. I haven't had any problems since then. If somebody runs into the same kind of situation I had, I'd be more than happy to tell them that Terminix is fast.

There was some termite activity around in my house, so I called Terminix. We have the quarterly check where they come out and they clean around the house. They did the outside, but then we started seeing some spiders and things showing up in the house and we called them. They came out as soon as they could and took care of it. We’ve had quite a turnover over the years with technicians. But the young man that comes out now is very friendly and personable and he does a good job.
I usually set up the service online and it’s not difficult at all. But there seems to be a little lack of communication between setting up things online and the local office. I’ve rescheduled an appointment online, but then they ended up calling and trying to come out on the date that was originally scheduled. Other than that, we've had good results with Terminix and it has been effective. I would recommend that people give them a try at least.

I had Terminix do a treatment on my house before I bought it but my previous treatment didn’t roll over. I wasn’t aware that I had to roll over the service contract and I had to get that done to refinance the house. I'm in a contract with Terminix for termite treatment now. Although my house doesn’t have termites, I have the history of it and Terminix is gonna check yearly and make sure that everything’s good.
They've also done the whole barrier around the house and the technician who came out was on time and very informative. I felt really bad because I was on a tight schedule and I was rushing him with my work. But he definitely worked with the time I had, answered all my questions and gave me the best option for my house. I even forgot one document that I needed to refinance the house and he came the next day to make sure I have that document. He was super awesome. So customer service wise, Terminix killed it. Go with Terminix if you want good and prompt service. They also answered all my questions especially on the financing plan. They will hook you up.

Terminix has been right on top of their appointments, and they come when they say they're gonna come and do what they say they're gonna do. They're good to me. I've had the same technician and he's fine and knows what he's doing. I called them most recently because we had carpenter ants.

Terminix was easy to get ahold of and it's easy for them to schedule. They sent the same guy back out which was helpful. I had carpenter bees really mad, chewing wood, flying around and after Terminix' first visit they were 99% gone. But I saw a tiny bit of evidence a few weeks later. Terminix came right back out and treated that just a few days ago and they came back and we treated the house. I saw eight buggers would be normal and I'm very happy. The technician seemed to know his job and the bugs, and was experienced. He did what he said they would do and was very nice about it.
I told the guy I was recommending them to my neighbor because I've seen those bees on a few other houses. I got my house treated because I don’t want the bugs back. What will happen is if you’ve got those flying bugs, they're gonna chew in the area. If they didn’t all get killed, they go away and I don’t want them chewing anybody else’s house. They’ll chew your house up, they’ll breed and they’ll be out in the neighborhood.

We have the annual inspection with Terminix and if we have a problem along the way and if we see something, either we call the technician, Jeff, directly or we have an 800 number we call. Most recently, the technician came, did an inspection, and explained the findings from that inspection. He did everything he needed to do for pest control. He’s somebody we’ve had right along, so it’s a professional but friendly relationship. Also, there hasn't been any pest activities since they've been out.

I moved into this house eight years ago and my dad hired the self-employed guy who had a business. They took out some bad trees in the back and treated everything for termite. Then he retired and went out of business. Terminix bought his book of business and I've been with Terminix for about six years since then. I have an annual termite checkup and I usually get an email that reminds me that it's time to schedule my appointment. Sometimes I schedule it by phone and sometimes on the website. Then they either call to confirm the night before or the morning of and then show up and do their thing.
One time, a guy never showed up and didn’t call. I called Terminix and they said that he got lost. But I never saw him again so he could have been let go. That was three years ago and that was the only time that I had any issue with scheduling. Plus given that this has been a long relationship, it was really no big deal. He came back the next day and took care of it. I also work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. It was not like I missed the time waiting for him to be here.
The guy who came for the first appointment this year called, confirmed the time and made sure that I was gonna be here for my appointment. He showed up on time, went straight to work and got it done. It was quick and easy. I get a different technician every year and they always say that everything looks fine. Aside from that time three years ago, they usually don't offer additional service. I know for a fact that there's stuff in my crawl space and they could do a better job of upselling. I'm probably not gonna pay somebody to take it out. It's not like I'm having a major infestation. But they should have said something to me. If I was the owner, I would say they are missing an opportunity to at least encourage somebody to do something else besides just their annual, $100 a year wham-bam-thank-you-ma'am kind of thing.

So far, we have been with Terminix for over a year. Their techs were great and their reps were very informative.

Terminix's service was good. I had horrible termites coming from my daughter’s wall and a guy from Terminix came out. But before that, I had a very hard time scheduling online. They scheduled me first on a Sunday and apparently, that’s a glitch with the computer. It sets up Friday with Sunday appointments which I thought would be great, but they don’t really exist, so no one came. That delayed the job by a few weeks and that was the biggest bummer because it really took some hunting down to get the technician. But then once the guy came, he was awesome. He said that the scheduling glitch was the common challenge, so they have to figure out the system. He went over what I needed to do and he did not scare to me to death, which was good. He also set up the next appointment and answered my questions.
And then the guys came and they put the traps in because it was raining. They said they could not spray the poison in and they'd come back. I wasn’t there when they came back the next time but they sprayed around the house. And now, I need to pay them a hot $1,300 to be done with this. That’s really expensive. They said that I would not notice a major difference in the pest activity even though it would take three months to be sure that this had done anything. So, to cool my jets and hope for the best, I don’t think about it.
Terminix comes every three months to look at traps and see if anything’s been eaten and then move on. That's the standard operating procedure. As far as my experience with Terminix, the biggest negative was the scheduling. But the biggest positive was when the guy came to the house. He was very honest and he understood that I’m a single mom with three kids. He seemed to be somewhat sensitive when he was writing up his price tag.

We schedule through the website, and if I am not available, I can go online and change it. I have to call him back because I happen to have some. I have really bad arachnophobia.

Over a year ago because I had some evidence of mice in my attic I investigated the attic with a Terminix representative who suggested that I need their exclusion service because we saw mice droppings and maybe a dead mouse. They came out and did some work for which they charged me over $1,000. This past fall I caught at least 4 mice in my garage and yesterday while checking out my HVAC system with a repairman I found a significant amount of mice droppings and 4 more dead mice in my attic. I think I've found more mice in my house in the one year after their Exclusion Service than I did in the 13 years before I hired them to perform an exclusion service. Needless to say I cancelled their exclusion service contract and since I feel like they don't care I will start shopping the rest of their services.

I have just this morning heard from the manager at the Albany NY branch of Terminix who reported that my refund of the overcharged amount had been refunded, and I am very pleased to report that when I checked with my credit card company the overcharge had, in fact, been eliminated, and my refund was posted. I am very grateful to Albany Terminix manager Brian ** for acting promptly to get this matter resolved, and to Consumer Affairs for contacting the Terminix company to make certain the refund that Brian had requested be processed was expedited. I would be pleased if Consumer Affairs would publish this response. Thank you, Mort in Albany.
Original Review: May 30, 2018
On May 22, 2018 Terminix treated my home for termites in one area of my garage. The contract I signed with Terminix in Albany NY was for 1,603.80, which was a discounted price of the original quoted price of 1,782.00. The Terminix employee who treated my home then incorrectly charged by credit card account the higher price when he completed the application, and after he contacted his supervisor to notify him of his error his supervisor charged me a second time for 1,603.80, but he did not also remove the first incorrect charge to my account. Now I have two charges for one service and as of May 30 this double charge has not been corrected. This is extremely upsetting. I have made several calls to Terminix, which has promised to correct the double charge, but no action has been initiated or completed on my account.
I have now contacted the Bureau of Consumer Frauds and Protection, the New York State Attorney General's Office, and my own attorney, who are prepared to take action on my behalf if the error is not corrected promptly. This has proven to be an extremely time consuming process and has begun to spoil my experience with a business that promised to provide reliable and honest service. I have proof of the problem I have described -- the original contract for 1,603.80, and the record of both transactions from my credit card company, and the disputed charge complaint I opened with my credit card company. I will write again next week, June 4, to update the status of this complaint. If it is not corrected I will post this complaint and add names and details on Angie's List and other review sites.

I got a text from Terminix saying that they were on their way and I texted back asking what location, but I never got a response, so I had no idea if that was just a missed text. I tried to reach out to my local branch to have them put on the account what location that they were gonna go to when they texted me if that was possible. I own my own business and we have our house and the kids have a duplex, and Terminix treats all three locations. I was on hold for 30 minutes, but never got a hold of anybody. They must have had been really busy that day.
But as far as the service goes, it’s been great and I haven't had any issues with that. The issue is just a communication thing because I like to be at the location when they’re gonna be there. If I’m not there, I‘d like somebody -- either the kids or my wife or whoever – to be there. And as far as where that house goes, someone definitely needs to be there because we have traps inside that they have to inspect. Generally, they text me or call me, but I would prefer at least a half hour notice.
Also, I love the idea of texting that they were on their way, but they need to take it up a notch and say, “Hey, we’re on our way to…” whatever location they’re on their way to. There has been a little turnover of people because they’re shuffling guys around. It’s been four different people for four different times. But for the most part, whoever comes out has been very good and very professional.
We do monthly service in all three locations and it has been good, except the residential where I noticed a couple of spiders in the basement. I would like to get them in because it’s been awhile since they’ve been in our house. For the duplex, they’ve been going in every time because it’s new for the kids. They’ve purchased it in October and we went through a hotel to remodel, but it was infected with mice and all kinds of little insects. Still, they have it under control. Overall, Terminix’s service has been great.

Our son moved into an apartment that had bed bugs and they got over here, and Terminix worked with those and took care of the indoor stuff. I certainly wanted those gone and it was a terribly hard work for old folks, but it had to be them to do it. And I haven't seen any bed bugs since. But we also took the pest control extra in case any bed bugs came back. However, no one ever gave me any paperwork to show me anything. I just had some unfilled forms with signatures but nothing definitive telling what our package was. And I called and texted them to ask for it.
We still have spiders in the garage, but the technician has put little boxes out. He is friendly and putters around doing his job, and I like him. We told him about some kind of animal under our barn and though he said he didn’t do that, he still looked around. The Terminix technicians really knew what they were doing and the guys that came around and took care of the dead bugs were very efficient and sharp. Terminix comes out every so often since we paid upfront and they’ve been taking care of the scheduling. We’re doing okay with this company so far.
