He explained what he would do, completed the job, explained what he did, collected the payment and was on his way. Came in a white truck with the name of the company discreetly posted.

I'm confused by all the great reviews. I hired STL Pest Control specifically for an active vole…read moreproblem. It has been a mess from start to finish. When the technician arrived, I showed him the holes, runways, and plant damage, but he focused on moles and told me he did not think I had voles. I repeatedly explained that voles were the reason I had called. He ultimately told me the treatment he was providing would "take care of both moles AND voles," so I agreed to proceed. This was assured to me numerous times. Afterward, the paperwork described a "Mole Yard Treatment," stated that no vole activity was observed, and showed that the service was a target mole treatment plus a granular animal repellent. I had already tried repellents myself; I hired a pest-control company because I wanted the actual vole problem treated. A repellent is not equivalent to infestation treatment. The apparent lack of knowledge about voles and the inability to properly identify the problem I had specifically hired them to address was concerning to me. Given that pest identification is such a basic part of effective treatment, that significantly undermined my confidence in the service. When I contacted the company about the mismatch, I expected them to apologize for the confusion and perform the service I was originally told I was paying for. Instead, they defended what had been done and tried to manipulate the situation, refusing any accountability. At different points they relied on the fact that the granular product could deter voles, while also explaining that their targeted vole protocol had not been performed because the technician said he did not identify active vole holes. That was exactly the problem: I had hired them for voles, repeatedly told the technician about the voles during the visit, and was assured the treatment would address them. The issue eventually resulted in a credit-card dispute that was resolved in my favor. The company still maintains that I owe the balance and continues sending automated invoices even after I asked them in writing to stop.

They did their inspection, discussed the options and potential solutions, and emailed me everything later that day. It was going to be an expensive fix to patch a hole where squirrels, and potentially bats, had gotten in but I called to ask when I could schedule the work. I have never gotten a response.

They refused to say that they would kill it once they trap it. So I did some research. I called Wildlife rescue in St louis. They gave free advice... skunks are gentle little animals. They are just hoping to survive. (We shouldn't remove wild animals from our property, because the destructive teenagers will move in and do more damage). I removed my outdoor cat food and the skunk moved on. Rottler also uses poisons for mice. They say they use 'safer' chemicals, but anything that kills is a poison. When those sick mice are eaten by owls, fox and predators, those animals slowly die too. If you are trying to kill the Earth, keep using Rottler. Google Humane pest control to find better options.

I always received an email to schedule, but I didn't always notice that it was from them because there was no business name displayed. After some time, I called to get the service scheduled again. I took the day off work so I could be here on the scheduled day, and they showed up in the window that was promised. Their service vehicle was a mess on the outside, with paint peeling all over the front etc. It's just something worth mentioning because it makes them look a little less professional. I went over the grounds to describe the issues that I am having. I really needed to get things taken care of and was happy that they were here to perform the spraying. They were here for about 30 min. or less before I was told that they would have to come back some other time since their sprayer was not working. That was disappointing since I needed service sooner rather than later. Great, now I have to get back on a schedule and back in line and wait. I have no idea what was treated before the sprayer broke, or if anything was treated at all. This kind of information would have been nice. I received a VM from the office to reschedule - No apologies for the inconvenience of my taking off work for this appointment or anything. Just a "call us back to reschedule" type of thing. The last thing I need is to take off work again with the potential of the job not being able to be completed. I am going to go with another local provider and hope for the best.

Because of that my inside never got done. They came out 3 times in the rain making the chemicals clump up and I was on the phone with them throughout the time I was a customer for over 5 hours. They transferred me multiple times every time I called. They know I have animals when all the chemicals clumped up and we're supposed to remove those and never did. They have repeatedly been smart asses on the phone and I have really really kept my composure for what they have put me through. There are so many other companies that are better please look into them. This company is a joke the way its run.

Dan is our technician and he's super nice. The people who answer the phone have the worst customer service skills I've ever experienced. In Spring of 2020 our every 2 months got out of whack because of the Covid-19 shutdown. In April we just had the outside sprayed and didn't want anyone inside the house so they did the inside portion in May. In June we were scheduled again and I had to call and explain that it was just serviced in May, blah, blah, blah. We needed service in early July and not June. They wanted to come again August 1st and I had to explain again they were here in early July and it hadn't been 8 weeks and we need it September 1st. No that's not OK you'll be violating your contract. The best I can do for you is August 31st. OK fine with me that's close enough. I can't be the only person who this has happened to because of the pandemic. Don't treat me like a leper. I am, in fact, spending money with you. Fast forward to the first week of September. We made a household decision that we didn't need our house sprayed every two months and we would be fine with every three months. We called the office and were met with more attitude. No we can't do that. So let me get this straight? I want to pay you to spray my house 4 times a year and you are going to tell me no, you can't do that because we are going from 6 times a year to 4 times a year? Yes, that's correct. Ok, we're going to have to completely cancel the service then. OK. I can't believe a company would employ people to turn away business in this manner...
