I have used Bug King a number of times. Twice for Gisborne Roaches - successful. Two or three times over the years for ants - which I have quite a problem with. First time spraying lasted a good length of time, second time was a young lad who didn't seem very experienced, then recently Daniel came and did a whole house ant spray - inside, outside, under-house etc - which made a HUGE difference!! A couple of months later I had a very small resurgence of ants in one spot, called Bug King and Daniel came around promptly. He inspected the problem, sprayed some of the areas again, explained to me that some of the grouting had been eaten away by ants and that was one of the places they were getting in, so I will repair that and hope for no more. He also sprayed a wasp nest on the front fence as he left. Thanks Daniel - your knowledge of Bugs is second to none and thanks for taking time to explain the problems. (all done under warranty so no charge)! read more

Avoid this business! We never got rid of fleas. We don't have pets and are very clean people. After a couple of months of treatment we get bites again. They offer a 6 months warranty but they look for reasons not to honour it. Like, do not mop the floors! For 6 months?!? I think vacuuming voids the warranty as well. They didn't have this in their agreement last time we hired them. Scam! read more

Ughhh. Do you know what's pretty no-fun? A very big wasp nest hiding under some vines that you accidentally pull on yourself. Do you know what is good though? An exterminator that comes to deal with a whole lot of angry wasps within 30minutes of you calling him and does his thing in about 10minutes flat, leaving you with only a whole pile of dead wasps, which is just how I like my wasps. Amazing service from the Bug King, despite being slightly disappointing that they don't incorporate a crown made of bugs into their workwear. Apart from being so prompt, he asked a whole lot of sensible questions to gauge the scale of the wasp problem and really wanted to make sure we were pest free rather than just getting rid of a few - and this seemed to come from a place of actually wanting to do a good job than just trying to get us to pay for more services. read more

I recently had the unfortunate experience of dealing with bed bugs in my home, and after researching various extermination companies, I decided to hire Bug King based on their seemingly positive reviews and reputation in the industry. Unfortunately, my encounters with them left much to be desired. From the outset, the scheduling process was smooth, and the initial inspection seemed thorough. The exterminators were prompt and appeared knowledgeable, instilling a sense of confidence that my bed bug infestation would soon be a thing of the past. However, as subsequent treatments occurred, it became evident that the promised results were not being achieved. Despite Bug King making multiple visits to my property, the bed bug problem persisted. I followed all recommended preparation steps diligently, adhering to their guidelines to enhance the effectiveness of the treatments. However, each time the exterminators left, the bugs returned shortly afterward, leaving me frustrated and disheartened. Communication with the company proved to be a challenge as well. Attempts to discuss the ongoing issues and seek clarification on the treatment process were met with vague responses and reassurances that the problem would be resolved with the next visit. Unfortunately, this pattern continued, and the company finally stopped responding all together. The lack of accountability and transparency in addressing the ongoing infestation was particularly disappointing. I expected a higher level of professionalism and a commitment to customer satisfaction from a reputed extermination service like Bug King. It became evident that the company was unable to fulfill its promises, leaving me questioning the effectiveness of their treatments and the competency of their staff. In conclusion, my experience with Bug King was far from satisfactory. Despite multiple visits and promises of a bed bug-free home, the infestation persisted, and the overall customer service left much to be desired. I would caution others to thoroughly research and consider alternative options before entrusting their pest control needs to this particular company. read more
