Ken did an excellent job. He answered my questions, was informative, and proceeded with his process very efficiently and professionally. Cathy in the office was very cooperative and made the entire service feel comfortable. Based on my experience I would certainly recommend this Orkin office.

I was having an issue with yellow jackets that made a nest in my wall. I was so stressed because they were getting into my apartment through vents/walls. My whole experience with Orkin was wonderful…. From my frantic call to the customer service late in the afternoon who were able to schedule an appointment for early the following morning to David the exterminator that came and handled the issue quickly and answered all my questions patiently and thoroughly. He came back for a follow up first thing the next morning and the issue is resolved. Thank you!

I highly recommend Orkin to everyone. They are reliable and my techs make sure I’m satisfied and feel safe. I’ll be using them always. I have the best techs around. It’s good that they send the same tech who’s familiar with your issues and you feel comfortable around them. A++++++

Jordyn Harris was amazing! He was able to battle the yellow jackets and apply a liquid and a powder. These yellow jackets were very aggressive. Much appreciated.

Ed R. via google

My appointment window was 2-4pm. My technician Jordan called and said he was finishing up another job and could actually arrive before 2pm. This was great for me. He got right down to business. He observed the external area where the yellow jackets were entering and then knew exactly where to start the treatment. He worked on the area until there was no more buzzing from the internal wall where I could hear the yellow jackets. He treated the surrounding area on the external entry point and made sure the nest was inactive. I was very satisfied with Jordan’s professionalism and thoroughness. The cost was more than other companies I called, but Orkin’s reviews were much better than the others. Now I know why.

Randy who performs my service always goes above and beyond. Professional, courteous and knowledgeable, he is on top of it all. Since using the service I have not had any pest or bug issues in all seasons.

I have had so many problems with digger bees, digger wasps, regular wasps, and ants over the years prior to finally just joining their plan where they come quarterly and handle it all. Best decision I ever made. No problems since. They are always friendly and honest. For example, I found what I thought was a roach and panicked and they told me it was a wood roach and they live outside and with the woods behind my house one could have just flown in, but if I see anymore to contact them again to come look. They could’ve upsold me and made me pay for something unnecessary, but didn’t. I know I can trust them. Not a problem since.

I have to say that my experience with this company and branch has been rather hit or miss. I live in a townhome with shared walls and was experiencing a rodent infestation ultimately they were not able to do much of anything that I wasn't able to do (IE patch holes, and set traps). Some of the tech were better than others but I wrote it off as a live and learn as it seemed to be they were just putting bandaids on an ongoing issue. What I can't write off as a live and learn is the fact that I called them 2 months prior to my contract expiring and asked if it would auto-renew. They kindly told me that it would not and I figured that this would be the end of our working relationship. I was wrong! Today I received a text saying they were coming out tomorrow for my yearly check up, when I called to cancel I needed to speak with multiple people before they agreed to cancel my service (after offering me discounts). I think you're better off working with a smaller company that doesn't use these tactics!

Larry B. via google

The service is fine and at a regular cadence but I called in multiple times, months in advance to cancel my contract, was told that it will not auto-renew without my approval, and then came an automatic charge on my credit card. This is for Syosset service location — beware. I think this is immoral for a company to tell you they won’t renew/that is how you terminate a couple hundred dollar contract, then you receive a notice of payment.

I recommend Terminix to all my loved ones! I moved in to my house 6 months ago and have had amazing experiences with termite inspections, pest control sprays for a beetle colony, and more recently mosquito and tick control. I have a rather large backyard and dedicated areas for my sons’ toys. My technician Brian Lawler has been so thorough yet delicate, with making sure I have complete protection and taking special care when spraying around my sons’ toys. He goes above and beyond for my home and treats it as if it were his own. I will always appreciate his work and will remain a long term customer because of it.

Comprehensive Pest Coverage

When signing up for pest control services, understanding which pests are included in the coverage is crucial. Most plans will address common household pests like ants, cockroaches, spiders, and rodents. However, more specialized invaders such as termites, bed bugs, and various wildlife may require separate, targeted treatments. Homeowners should be aware that not all pests are covered under standard plans, and additional fees may apply for dealing with these more complex issues.

Signing a Contract: What to Know

Contracts are standard in the pest control industry, and they typically outline the terms of service, the frequency of treatments, and the duration of the agreement. Some companies offer monthly, quarterly, or annual contracts, while others might require a longer commitment. It's essential to read the fine print and understand the terms, including any cancellation fees or penalties for early termination.

Service Satisfaction Guarantees

Many pest control companies offer guarantees to assure homeowners of the efficacy of their services. These guarantees typically include a promise to address any recurrent pest problems at no additional charge within a certain period following the initial treatment. This can offer peace of mind and ensure that your home remains pest-free.

Expectations During Treatment

The treatment process usually begins with a thorough inspection to identify pest activity and potential entry points. Following the inspection, technicians will implement a customized treatment plan using various methods to address the specific pest issues. Homeowners can anticipate the sealing of gaps, application of pesticides, and ongoing monitoring to ensure the treatment's success.

Bundling Services and Add-ons

For added savings, some pest control companies offer bundled services that combine pest control with termite, mosquito, or rodent control, potentially saving homeowners a substantial amount of money. Additional services like termite inspections and mosquito treatments can usually be added to existing plans for increased protection and convenience.

Specialty Pest Control Options

While standard pest control plans cover a wide range of common pests, issues with termites, bed bugs, rodents, and wildlife necessitate more specialized treatment plans. These pests often require different methods and expertise, so it's vital to choose a provider with the capability to handle these specific challenges effectively.

Choosing Between One-Time and Recurring Services

Deciding between one-time and recurring pest control services depends on the nature of the infestation and the homeowner's long-term pest management goals. While one-time treatments can address immediate problems, recurring services provide ongoing prevention and are generally recommended to maintain a pest-free environment over time.

In Howell, New Jersey, the likelihood of bugs entering older houses compared to newer ones can vary. Older houses may have more gaps, cracks, and structural issues that can provide entry points for pests.

How can I ensure that I remove any pesticide residue during cleaning?

To ensure the removal of any pesticide residue during cleaning in Howell, New Jersey, thoroughly wash fruits and vegetables under running water. Use a produce brush to scrub firm produce. For leafy greens, remove the outer leaves and wash each leaf individually. Peeling fruits and vegetables can also help reduce pesticide residue.

What is the best month to spray for bugs?

It is recommended to consult with a local pest control expert for the most accurate timing and effective treatment options.
