Orkin is a total disaster. Unprofessional, disorganized, and completely useless…read more If I could give zero stars, I would. Orkin Pest Control has been the most frustrating, unprofessional, and unresponsive company I've ever dealt with. We've been paying for monthly service, yet the pest problems continue and the service we're supposed to be getting simply doesn't happen. From the start, things were a mess. When we first set up our account, they sent a technician out for an initial visit. He showed up, greeted us with "What's good?" and immediately came off as unprofessional. We explained we wanted a general inspection around the home and some preventative treatment for insects. He flat-out refused and said they don't do that. I asked, "Then what are you here for?" and he sarcastically pointed at a cobweb and said, "Oh, I see one there." At that point, I asked him to leave because he clearly wasn't taking the job seriously and was acting like an entitled fool. I called to complain, and a manager sent out a different technician and this one was more respectful and gave us his personal business card, saying we could call him directly anytime we had issues. But when we actually did call him, he blew us off and told us there was nothing he could do, and to call the office. Of course, the office doesn't answer or return voicemails. Trying to get a same-day appointment which Orkin advertises as something they offer was a complete joke. I was passed from one customer service rep to another in what felt like a game of musical chairs. Each one would type my info into a system and say someone would call me back. Nobody ever did. To make it worse, one of their main numbers has a recorded message saying, "If this is an emergency, call this number." I called that number, and the person who answered said there's no such thing as an emergency line. So why are you telling customers otherwise? Then, a rodent got caught in one of the traps they placed, and when I called to have someone come remove it, I was told they don't offer that service. So I'm paying for pest control, but I'm expected to deal with the pests myself? On top of all that, they double charged me for a service, and the first rep I spoke to tried to brush it off like it wasn't a big deal. I had to demand a refund before anyone actually did anything about it. That's unacceptable. This company is completely disorganized. The technicians are unreliable, the customer service is useless, and the communication is non-existent. They're happy to take your money every month, but when it comes to actually doing their job, they vanish. Orkin is not worth your time or your money. Save yourself the frustration and go with a company that actually cares about its customers and stands by its service.

I will call you and let you know. Tuesday, no call, no show. I texted him Wednesday asked if and when he planned on coming. His reply "I'm so busy right now, sorry please call another company.

I looked up his phone number and came across this website. The technician spoke in a rude and dismissive way, to my 10-year-old daughter when she was telling him simply " there is a bee upstairs flying around and my mommy is going to kill it " his response to my daughter was " ok I do not need to know that which I found completely unacceptable. Than " proceeded to walk pass her didn't attempt to kill the bee or pick up the dead ones in my home. He also told me that the bees are not coming through the vents when I told him that my children and I have seen them coming out of the vents and my upstairs and downstairs sliding doors. My 11 year old daughter noticed him using my ladder without ever asking for permission to do so. When I asked if that was my ladder he was on, he got an attitude and said, "So you want me to go all the way downstairs to get mine?" That was not only disrespectful, but also careless since this is my personal property inside my home. Instead of apologizing or simply using his own equipment, he got upset. He told me to "hold on," so I thought he was going to get his ladder. Instead, he just left my home altogether leaving both my back door and my front door wide open as he walked out. Leaving me and my children and twin babies even more unsafe. I then called my landlord and he fabricated and told her that I was rude. I have cameras in my house from the moment he came to my door and asked him was he the exterminator due to his appearance how he was dress he said " I am " didn't speak introduce himself or anything. Very unprofessional. The way my landlord was speaking was as if he was a family member of hers. This behavior was not professional, not respectful, and certainly not safe. I would not recommend this company to anyone looking for reliable and courteous pest control service. Below is the photo of the guy and as you can see he came with his own equipment from the van with two ladders and had the Audacity to have an attitude and be rude to me about my personally property I purchased in my house. I use my ladder for personal things in my house not with shoes or outside use I don't even have to explain myself because he could have asked or simply used his own equipment and than was rude to my child. Very rude so do not book this company if that guy is coming! He did not fix the issue after later that night 11:08pm a bee came out one of the vents in my bedroom and one in the ceiling in the kitchen. I have been having this issue killed and have collected over 65+ bees in my house from July 2025-current. I have been to the E.R and doctors I have not been sleeping well due to bees being in my home and having children and twin babies and my landlord finalllllyyyyy sends an exterminator 9/09/2025 he was rude and didn't fix anything just left without saying anything.

I highly recommend Bug Bust Pest Control. The first reason is that their communication is above and…read morebeyond most contractors I have dealt with. The call back to my voicemail was prompt and the communication on when they would arrive was excellent. While on the phone, Dan knew exactly what the issue was when I explained to him what I was seeing. Dan arrived on time, was very professional, kind and honestly just a GOOD human. It is always a pleasure to do business with someone when they are of great character, it makes it much easier and accepting to fork over the money. We had hornets in the ceiling and we were very close to having a serious issue with them getting into the living space. If this happened, and it would have if we did not act when we did, a large hornet nest that was growing may have fallen right into my elderly father's lap while in his recliner. This would have been horrible. Thank you to Dan and Bug Bust Pest Control for exterminating the nest and all of the hornets. If you have any kind of pests that you are concerned about, call Dan. Oh - the value was spot on for the services provided.

I was not home at the time and my wife put me on the phone with the tech who apologized and said "you were probably sent a confirmation via text or email. It looks like it's been a busy week for you though so no worries if you missed it". I did not, in fact, miss any confirmation, since none was sent. When I called Cowleys to inquire what happened, they said they don't actually confirm these visits - they just show up?? But then why would you knock on my door if you don't need anyone to be present? This is WILDLY unprofessional behavior - not just showing up unannounced with chemicals in a home with a newborn, but then trying to gaslight me for your lack of communication. The entire phone call felt like the rep was annoyed at me and she did absolutely nothing to help beyond adding me to a "list" where they would notify me to confirm future visits. I've received confirmation from them in the past, so I don't know what happened on their end, but I cancelled my service with the rep immediately. What a waste of money this whole ordeal was. I DO NOT recommend these people at all.

On the following day, we found not only the spider are almost gone but all crickets went disappeared. The whole house is whisper quiet. Imagine multiple circuits singing in your house calling each other in the middle of night. Another benefit is no more silver fish. Hopefully, the treatment can last for three months. I will continue to ask them to return quarterly for at least a year.

For a job they didn't do right in the first place! They even had the nerve to try to push an annual contract on me so I can pay even more money for them to basically do nothing again. After several phone calls, they finally agreed to come back and finish the job the right way as a "courtesy" and gave me a date and a timeslot when they would be by. I rushed home to ensure I was there before the allotted window and they never showed up, never called, never finished the job. I would NEVER use this company again and have told everyone I know to steer clear. Extremely unprofessional!!
