zero score. Don't trust. They did home inspection for buyer for our house we are selling. They lied and said have rats in attic. No trees to get to attic space. Took photos of attic and videos ourselves no droppings area spotless no smell nothing. Made up story coming in through soffits. Have video no break in any soffit. Said saw dropping corner of garage. Took photos and what they said were droppings were pieces of rubber. It is very sad where the majority of population here is elderly and these people are out there scamming. Stated would take 2 weeks to catch imaginary rats and over $1800 to sterilize. Luckily know expert and trapper and have proof and videos it's a scam. Reporting them. don't use. Not honest people. read more

Wow, Great Pest control company! [[HIGHLIGHT]]From my first call with Arturo and service by Michael was smooth and very accommodating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I just want to throw a shout-out to Michael, he listened and explained everything he was doing and why.

LOL Anyway, I would highly recommend Good News Pest Solutions. Also love the faith. Thank you Michael. Jim read more

I paid for an extended warranty after I purchased a home that was tented by Good News. After 2 years now going into the third year at $400.00 each year. I have yet to get any service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I asked if I could get the inspection for the current year and then pay for the coming year and I was told to pay or be cancelled.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They took $800.00 and now wanting another $400.00. But have done nothing. Not a GOOD business to have a contract with. read more

James is kind, professional, trustworthy and very helpful in explaining things. He's the best.!

Our pest control specialist Nicholas does a terrific job and always listens and pays attention to our needs.

Hallelujah! Finally a company and a tech that does what they say they are going to do. We been through several pest control companies that promise service, do not show up or claim they performed a whole house service in under 10 minutes. Brandon and Good News actually deliver the services promised and provide details of what was done. We are very happy to recommend Good News to our neighbors and anyone in the Lakewood Ranch/Sarasota area that is not happy with the service from their current provider. read more

Wanted to take a moment to recognize one of your technicians. We had an ant problem and your representative Ryerson came to our house. He was prompt, courteous and knowledgeable. I was most impressed with his respect for our home. He solved the problem and represented your company with professionalism. He is a keeper. read more

As a Realtor in the Venice area for 23+ years, I've worked with quite a few Pest Control companies. Recently, I had the opportunity to work with Richie at Good News Pest Solutions. Richie was prompt, professional and pleasant to work in tenting a property I was selling. I highly recommend this company and if you can get Richie to be your point person, you'll be glad you did!! read more

I had issue discovered near exterior door jam ... thought we had bugs in between door jam & interior wallboard, l called Good News requested inside perimeter of my home to be inspected for potential bug infestation ... Randy inspected & said not to worry Good News treatment outside was working around house perimeter. I am a very pleased Good News customer! read more

Excellent company, we hired them for three homes and all three are well managed, with no critters. They even broom away the little crab spiders in the pool cage. Great people, great company, highly recommended. read more

Stopped service but still billed us. Do not do auto pay with them. The rep told me quarterly, but paperwork says every 4 mos. Not happy and looking elsewhere. read more

Great Customer Service! I woke up to a line of fire ants that infiltrated my kitchen. The technician was able to come out that afternoon to treat the inside and outside of my home and haven't seen an ant since. The technician was very polite and got right to work. I would highly recommend them for your pest control needs! read more

Pay attention to the one star reviews. Do not use this company. I cancelled service because the home was pending sale. This company is sending a bill charging for four months of coverage though I cancelled coverage at the beginning of the coverage period. This company is uncommunicative and full of lies. The company claims to have notified us in advance when the service person will be out to do a perimeter spray. We were not notified and were surprised by the service person's appearance. The service person was told the home was under contract to be sold, and that we would be canceling service. The company lies about that and conveniently disclaims being informed of the cancellation. I called many times to get a resolution, but this company is very unresponsive. Do yourself a favor and pay attention to the poor reviews. This review will be going into Next Door Neighbor read more

Was quite happy with the service provided by Joel. He is definitely an expert of his craft. Greatly appreciated his professionalism, competence, proficiency, and patience as he discussed the pest treatment that I was receiving. Thank you Joel and the staff at Good News Pest Solutions. You guys are really the good news of the pest control! read more

James Foy always does a great job! He calls ahead of time to let us know he will be coming which is appreciated also.

Your Review: (5 Stars)Inspector Jeff was wonderfully responsive and came up with a plan to control my pest problem. He as always has gone above expectations to make sure that my home remains pest controlled. Above and beyond service and on a holiday weekend too! read more

After an initial ant treatment done at our townhome by GNP Solutions, we found a few days later a swarm of ants in the kitchen . We called the company to come back and do a second treatment as the first one was not adequate nor efficient. Because our HOA has a contract with the company , they refused to honor any guarantee on their work and they actually had the goal to tell us that we have to wait three months until the next treatment until they come back as mentioned in the contract with the HOA. So they wanted us to stay with ants that multiply every so often for three months- and this from an extermination company. I believe this company is not serious and their treatment of our townhouse was not adequate not to mention that their guarantees are worthless. I wonder if they use real chemicals or is it just a make believe that they are spraying. I will also ask the HOA to change this company for a more serious and determined extermination company as they are just after your money. This company is a joke!!!! read more

Moved into new house and needed monthly bug sprays and other pest control. They said the did their initial treatment, but you'd never know because all the little wasp nest were still everywhere (10+). They said the guy would call about the wasps. He didn't call but just showed up so I couldn't point out where some of the nests were hiding. He missed those AND he missed some of the largest and most obvious ones. So I call again and they say they'll have the guy call me back. I missed his call but he left a message saying he'd be there the next day at 10am. I showed him exactly where the nests were. He still didn't get one of the obvious ones and he didn't get the ones behind a recessed light bulb. He said "Well I don't know how I'm going to get behind that light bulb." I suggested he unscrew the bulb. He stood there thinking and I told him I had to get back to my zoom meeting. Instead of unscrewing the bulb, he shoved a rock in the light! Perhaps in an attempt to keep the wasps from going in/out? I don't know, but the wasps are still able to access their hive AND I have a rock in my light! In addition, the wasp nest he did knock down he just left on the porch instead of sweeping them up! So I called to complain and the lady said they aren't required to clean up after themselves and they don't unscrew bulbs! Then tell me you don't unscrew bulbs instead of just shoving a rock in there! read more

Good News ?....I'm going THE WORST NEWS and worst business. There is a rat IN my house....Not in my attic...in my kitchen, living room, bathroom... I called the office earlier this week. Droppings everywhere, chewing everything...Traps set but nothing is caught, and this company's response is, "0h well." They will "come out next Monday".... It's Friday. There is no one to speak with. Receptionists are dismissive. The "higher ups" are all in meetings. Side note: Good News rat proofed our home...supposedly. There is no one to talk to. Really? read more

Ryan is our amazing professional with Good News! His friendly nature is exceptional, he knows his craft as well as anyone we've ever dealt with and better than most. After Ryan got our previously empty VGRC property under control we have had no problems. Hire Good News..,and request Ryan!!! read more

DO NOT HIRE! Did around 20k of damage to my home during a termite treatment in water damage because a worker flooded my house and they are not taking responsibility. read more

Used Good News for bat abatement. They continuously treat for the problem until it was completed. We paid one price up front and we have received several return visits. They have not asked for any additional fees. We also have their quarterly pest control program. Randy is an outstanding technician. If we need him between quarterly visits he is hear within 24 hrs. This is an excellent company. read more

I called on 9/4 to inquire about setting up new service. After deciding on a plan, I was informed that the technician for my area would contact me to schedule an appointment. I received an email from Justin Ryan introducing himself and stating that he would call to schedule my initial appointment. A couple days go by no call/contact. I emailed and phoned him but no reply. The next day I contacted the office and asked if there was another technician that could schedule me as Justin seemed pretty busy. I was informed that he was the only technician for my area and that yes he was one of the busiest. She stated that she would talk to a supervisor and I would be contacted that day to get scheduled. I never heard back!! I would not recommend them at all! read more

You never know who you will run into in the course of the business day. The pest services are more than adequate however one never knows when you might cross paths with a long time customer and make a not so great impression. My money will go to the other guys going forward... read more

We own a home in Englewood, FL, and have used Good News Pest Control for about 10 years now. I am 100% satisfied with their service, and would highly recommend it to anyone who is in need of Pest Control. I am a Native of Florida, so I know how hard it is to live in a bug free environment, no matter how neat and clean you keep things. I have not seen any bugs since they started treating the parameter of our home. This treatment has also eliminated spiders in our home as there is now nothing for them to eat, so they moved on... Best news, they use "Green" products which gives me great peace of mind... read more

I really haven't needed any help but recently saw some ants in my kitchen and called. They answered promptly, knew my name, address and phone and scheduled a callback by the technician right away. Assuming the good response and results, I would consider changing my 4 stars to 5. read more

Good News Pest Control came out uninvited with a Home inspector that the buyers of my home hired. They told me I had rats in the attic....The charge would be $1300.00 to clean up the attic!!! I shopped and called Jenkins Pest control....he never found A rat but I was charged $300.00 to check and close any holes I had in the attic And he set traps. Good News is only for their Own news!!!! read more

We've been using Good News Pest Solutions for years I love the fact that one technician is assigned as your dedicated specialist. They do such an awesome job, I have my parent's house being treated as well! The monthly payment plan option is very reasonable. I want to give a shout out to our technicians Dave and James. Thank you so much for your service. My family and I are extremely grateful. To all of the rest of the team, thank you. Your all very important as well. Together you all make the business a tremendous success that is! read more

Up until today, I would have rated this company higher. However the older guy who came out to my home (accompanying the tech) was Rude and condescending! He never introduced himself, he Falsely accused me of demanding the traps be removed, he interrupted, didn't listen, etc. I don't know how people like that keep their jobs?? And this is suppose to be a Christian Company?? I was told by the original tech that "the rodents were gone, they ate the bait and went off and died" I mentioned to him that I'm hearing noises in the attic and was told that "that's just the house settling" Since I was told the rodents were gone & they never did hit on that bait) I asked the attic to be sanitized since I had already paid for the service. It was very little and didn't seem to make much difference. However, the rodents were not gone. I understand that we all make mistakes but to turn this around and blame the customer is horribly unprofessional! read more

Good News has been our pest control company for the last 4-5 years. I know the owners, and some of the people who work there, including the person assigned to us, and they are all very professional and make it really easy for us to deal with any pest issues. Also, my most important reason for hiring Good News, other than the "Good News" they bring with them :) is the fact that they are a GREEN company, that their products are not hurting our environment like the products of 99% of the other companies out there are. THAT, is the most important criteria for me. Thank you Good News for being GREEN! read more

Checked my security cameras and found my technician never got out of his truck to do my service.

WOULD GIVE NEGATIVE STARS IF WE COULD!! Absolutely the worst to get inspections done for termites. They were recommended and from day 1 it has been horrible. We are in the process of buying a new home and wanted a good company to use for the WDO report. Unfortunately, we are having to go through all of this during the holidays which doesn't help. Our first potential home - Called to make the appointment with no issues. Called to confirm and we were told that they don't make the appointments, they just take the information and send it to the inspector. We had to contact the inspector directly in order to get the inspection scheduled. Our second potential home - due to issues with the first home, we arranged to have inspections done on a second potential home about a day or 2 after the first one. We called the company who gave us the run around of needing to know every aspect of the contract and information on the house before they would even send the information to the inspector. Come to find out, we called a different location of Good News which is why we go the run around. Called the location from the first inspection and they sent the info to the inspector without any issues or interrogation other than the basic information that was needed. When we contacted the same inspector as the first home to confirm the appointment, he argued with us that he didn't send us an email or have anything on his schedule for us for either homes 1 or 2. After back and forth, he finally confirmed that he had the information and would be at the appointments. At the inspections, the inspector was very nice so we caulked up the scheduling issue to them having a bad day On to home number 3 due to issues with #1 & 2 once we had the reports - Scheduled the appointment with the office and never heard back from the inspector. The seller decided not to sell after spending the time to hammer out the details of the sales contract so onto house number 4 Fourth house - called the office to have the address changed for the inspection from the 3rd house to the 4th house. No issues with changing it but no word from the inspector. We contacted the inspector directly to confirm that they would be there on Monday the 28th and got no response. Called the office on Monday morning to be told that the inspector is on vacation which they didn't bother to tell us this when we called to schedule the appointment the week before. Asked if someone else could do the inspection so it could be done as we have a limited time frame to complete it after being told it was scheduled for today. They said everyone was in a meeting and that they would call us back. We called again about 2 hours later to be told that they are still in a meeting and again told the same at almost 3pm!! Looks like we will have to call another company to get the inspection done before the inspection period runs out! read more

We just moved to Florida and researched and spoke to several pest control companies. There were some that were very expensive and did not include the things that were important to my husband and me..and that was having "pet friendly" products and "being able to service the inside and outside of our home with the details we wanted"!.... We found GOOD NEWS, and were very happy with Jim Pate and his professional crew, esp Cameron. We were very happy with the detailed and professional service they gave us and the reminder call when their next visit was to see our home. Very happy NOT to see any creepy crawlers and happy with Cameron who services us with expertise and friendliness. Thank you and we have referred you to many friends. Dee and Peter read more

Jeff Joerin has provided service to our home on Longboat Key. In the past few years, we had both subterranean and wood termites. Jeff has been phenomenal to work with. Coming from Colorado we aren't familiar with termites and Jeff educated us and walked us through the entire process to ensure we understood and knew exactly what we needed to do. Jeff is a genuine man who takes his job seriously and clearly supports the company philosophy. We are in the process of selling our home on LBK and the buyer was skeptical of the termite mitigation and therefore wanted to speak to someone with expertise on termite treatment. Jeff spoke to the buyers agent and provided them with the information they were seeking and now Jeff will have them as new clients. Needless to say, Jeff goes above and beyond to do his job. Good News Pests is fortunate to have such an ethical and dedicated employee. read more

Caught their service technician falsely charging for services not rendered. My 3 residence was not done and yet he charged me and when incaught him out on it and called into refute the bill operator acted as i was wrong. I had 3 eye witnesses thankfully and they finally refunded our money. No i only caught him in one billing but how many times did he do this and to how many. They didnt even try to make this right they just quietly sent my money back 10 days later and let a customer go, however the agent still works there. read more

Jim Pate did an inspection for a house I was buying and he said It had a small termite problem in one area. I needed a tent and he was doing it or so he thought. I called a larger more reputable company to tent my home as I wanted it done right but after their inspection they said I didn't need a tent as the property had no termites. I found out Good News only work on commission and will try to get you to tent your property for the money. This is unethical and disgusting. don't waste your good time and money on this shabby run company get the real guys instead. read more
