The last service man that was here was great, but the one that was before him, didn't make sure that the back entry door was closed correctly. Arriving home from AZ on April 15, our house was FULL of Asian Beatles and mice had there way in the house! We had a lot of clean up to do and didn't appreciate all the extra work!

It is an often that I give ratings in this category. I believe that there is a rating for doing your job and a rating for doing exceptional work and customer support." I believe this time you deserve the five star report you were efficient, informative, and provided a quality product and service. Your representative was both professional and efficient could not have asked for a better service. I would certainly do this again the little pricier than some when you needed it done and wanted a quality job. This was definitely the way to go.

Silas Brown was amazing. He was very thorough, kind, and very professional. He came and treated my entire house, while explaining every step he was doing and why. If you have issues in your home, I highly recommend silas brown from orkin. Thank you very much silas, and hopefully see you again for the next treatment.

Today we had the first application of insecticide for their carpenter bees and wasps. The service provider was very helpful in answering my many questions about carpenter bees. He was also honest about the fact that they could be coming back at any time. Very grateful to have the 30 day guarantee. I gave it four stars because we still have to wait and see the results of the first treatment.

Chris Gama came to our house to do an inspection, after we found bed bugs in our bedroom and bathroom. Chris, was the nicest and most courteous professional that I have ever met. He was very thorough, and was able to explain everything to us in detail about what they would do, to eliminate the bed bugs in our home. Chris was also able to answer every question we had. We are very grateful that Chris was able to come to our home and help us. Thank you so much Chris, and Terminix.

I hired them to help exterminate some bed bugs and do a free inspection. During the inspection they were very professional and kind. I would have considered using their service if they weren’t so expensive and would have been able to afford them.

Cleaned, sanitized and bombed crawl space and basement. Fixed hole where squirrels were coming and going

Vickie S. via google

Service was prompt with good communication of (squirrel) trapping results. My only wish for more humane treatment would be to have trapped animals removed, reportedly for relocation, during the day after entrappment, so they didn't need to spend the (cold) night in the trap. However they apparently survived that trauma.

Presto-X Pest Control is fantastic for any and all of your pest control needs. I work in a century year old church and even with all of our efforts we still get the occasional church mouse. With the wonderful weather we have received this year our building has had our fair share of the little visitors. I called Presto- X to say that I’ve heard some activity, within 2 days our technician Michael was at our office to inspect, he even called and came by the office the next day to check on the building. How many other companies do you know that would do that for their customers? Not many that’s for sure! Thank you Michael for your great customer service and care for your customers. You’re truly an amazing person!

Common Pests in Iowa

Residents of Iowa may encounter a range of pests that can disrupt their homes and surroundings. One common pest issue in the state is ants, which can infest kitchens, pantries, and other areas in search of food. These tiny insects can be difficult to eliminate completely, as they often have multiple entry points and can create extensive colonies. Residents may also face problems with rodents such as mice and rats, particularly during colder months when these pests seek shelter indoors. Rodents can cause damage to property and pose health risks through their droppings and urine.

Another pest that residents of Iowa often encounter is the spider. While most spiders are harmless, some species like the brown recluse or black widow can be venomous and pose a danger to humans and pets. It is important to identify and address any spider infestations promptly to ensure the safety of the household. Additionally, mosquitoes can be a nuisance during the warmer months, interrupting outdoor activities and potentially spreading diseases like West Nile virus.

To effectively deal with these common pest issues, residents in Iowa may consider seeking professional pest control services. Experienced pest control experts can identify the source of the infestation, implement tailored treatment plans, and provide ongoing prevention strategies to keep pests at bay.
