I am not happy with my experience with Star City Pest Control. To start with the positives, the…read morestaff I dealt with were courteous and professional. However, they did not provide any effective assistance. I moved to a house in which some raccoons had nested in the rear awning of the house, which they had access to due to some repairs that were needed. I called Star City Pest Control, and they told me that they could put in a special door that would allow the raccoons to exit but not return. They told me this would cost $200 plus another $99 for a mandatory inspection. I balked at the idea of paying $300, but when the raccoons got bolder and started to come to my window at night I caved and called SCPC back. Star City dispatched staff for an inspection a few days later. The men who came were professional and courteous, but the inspection was short and pointless since I already knew where the raccoons were nesting and how they were getting there. The raccoons were not present when the men came by for the inspection, and it was annoying to think how easily they could have cleared the whole issue up if they could have just blockaded the entryway then and there. They did not take any measurements for the special door or do anything else productive. I did ask them to look at the attic before they left since the woman on the phone kept emphasizing to me that the inspection would necessarily include the attic. It was clear the men had already concluded that the attic was a non-issue since the awning was not connected to the attic, but I felt gypped and wanted to get my money's worth. I was shocked when I subsequently received the estimate. Instead of the $200 I had been quoted over the phone, the estimate was for nearly $700, more than it would cost to just permanently repair the awning. When I told my neighbors about the estimate, they concluded that the company was trying to exploit the fact that I am female and new to the area. One of my neighbors said he had used Star City Pest Control to have three animals removed for only $150 (SCPC denies this, but why would my neighbor lie about that?). Even if their pricing was not discriminatory, the whole business model felt predatory to me, like they are trying to take advantage of people in a state of crisis and drag out the process to make as much money as possible. Consequently, I decided I would handle the matter on my own, and I am happy to say that the raccoons are now gone. I only wish I had not bothered with Star City Pest Control in the first place; now I am out $99 for absolutely nothing.

I had a service contract w Dodson for 5 years & then stopped because I was selling my house. When I…read morehad to have termite inspection with the sell of the house, they found termites. I immediately contacted Dodson to be told I only had a "pest control" contract with them which didn't cover termites. The area manager Tim, told me, "no where on my contract was the word termite." OK..... that leads me to believe my entire house was covered under ANY pests since I have no experience in this field of business. So now I'm left to deal with a mess that I thought was covered by them, something I was under them impression that I've paid for for 5 years. NEVER AGAIN!!! Steer clear from a company that is not upfront & honest about what they cover & what they don't!!

Absolutely the worst customer service imaginable! The office staff is rude and unhelpful. When…read moreyou call with a complaint or issue, they argue with you. I asked to be rescheduled for my pest control because we were out of town and was told that that was not possible and that they "had" to come out according to our "contract". I never recall making a contract with Orkin but I did sign something on an IPad at the initial service because the technician told me he could not complete my service without this. I was never given a copy of what I signed or given a chance to read it. I consider this highly deceptive!!! Anyway, I called the office to cancel and future services and was told they were coming out on a particular day. I told them not to send anyone again, and then I got an invoice today by email. I do not intend to pay this and am going to file a formal complaint. Good luck with this company if you use them, I will never again!!!!

They did not even bother to inspect the interior or exterior of the house to properly assess the situation. Furthermore, despite my explicit questions, the technician failed to provide any clear explanation of the next steps or how these bait boxes should be managed moving forward.

I expected a thorough service and proper guidance, neither of which was provided.

I always asked for the same guy to come because he does excellent, and she assured me this is who would come. Well, someone else called this morning and advised me he was on the way. I told him someone else was supposed to come but I told him to come on I would give him a chance. I don't follow them around everywhere they go but I do check after they leave, you can see where they sprayed because it's still wet. He never sprayed anywhere close to what my other guy does. I called and paid my invoice and told the lady I was not pleased at all and I never wanted anyone else to ever come except who had been coming, that was scheduled to come today. She never apologized or even asked why I wasn't pleased with my service. She did say she would make a note to always send my regular guy from now on, but this is the same lady that told me Tuesday he would be coming today. I have been really satisfied until today, but evidently, they not really concerned whether you pleased with their work or not. That's the feeling I got today.
