Needed someone to come out asap as we had a fire ant problem and my husband is very allergic. The owner responded to my inquiry within minutes and was very informative and set up an appointment right away. Our bug guy, Jarrod, came out and got right to work. He listened to all of our concerns and addressed every area on our yard. Very impressed with the level of customer service, the price, and overall kindness from this company. Signed a year contract! read more

Can't say enough great things about this amazing company! Called our guy Eric this morning with an "emergency" last minute request and he made time at the end of his day to come by and get it all taken care of. On top of that, he answered my many many questions and was so friendly as always. I can sleep so much better tonight and over the weekend thanks to him! Thank you so much again Eric, I can't say enough how much I appreciate you making it out same day for us! We are so grateful for you! read more

We've been using LOCAL Bug Guy services for the past 6 months now. These guys are absolutely next level -- especially Oscar, our bug guy. From the moment we reached out to get started, LOCAL Bug Guy has been super, super easy to communicate with and set up appointments. We're setup on a quarterly service now. Each time our appointment approaches, Oscar sends us a text message to let us know when he'll be there and what service(s) he will be performing. When he's around the house, we barely notice he's outside -- he cleans off the house to rid it of webs and doesn't leave any mess behind. The best part? If we need anything at all, Oscar is simply a text message away. We've yet to have any bugs inside the house but in the event we do, I know LOCAL Bug Guy will drop everything to take care of our family. Thank you Oscar and thank you LOCAL Bug Guy. read more

The Best Company in Temecula for Pest Control! My experience was as follows: This Company is Professional with the right attitude, I have used others, these guys are the best! "LOCAL BUG GUY" is personable, I trust the Tech to do his job, they have educated me with what needs to be done with each new season, and have followed through with every promise! Nice to see old fashion Pride and hard work in a modern day company and it's employee's, hard to find these days. Don't waste time looking, you won't find a better service! read more

Very frustrating experience just trying to get some information from an actual person that works in the field. I left a message on Yelp asking for a quote and describing the scope of work. I received a call back from a scheduled this morning, basically saying "I'm calling to set up another call with you later this afternoon." That person had no info that could address our pest situation. I had a call back as promised in the afternoon...however, this was from another "scheduler." I thought I was reaching out to a company with more of a local presence and that might avoid red tape...instead I got 3 layers of non expert office folks who were not able to give me actual information or answer any questions about my pest issue. Don't use this company if you want to consult with a professional first. read more

Thank you Local bug guy. Gil was kind and friendly and Very Professional. Gil explained the whole process!! To my Husband and I.Gil notified us before Arrival and was prompt .Thanks once again Gil. read more

I definitely recommend the Local Bug Guy! When we first moved in we had ants that kept popping up in various places in the house. We'd kill them in one spot and they'd appear elsewhere. Such a pain! I contacted them and they were quick and responsive. Brent is super nice and easygoing and goes over everything with you. I was assigned Mike for our area. He came out (also really easygoing and friendly) and found the source outside immediately. He was quick and never even needed to do anything inside. He treated the house and the problem stopped immediately. In 6 months we've only seen ants once and that was recently after the pouring rain. He came right out and sprayed. If you need them in between quarterly treatments, it's free. I feel like they're very transparent with the contract, their prices are fair, and they're just a good, honest business, which is hard to say! read more

I left message on Yelp and heard back minutes later...when I didn't respond they followed up with a phonecall shortly after...had an appointment a day later. I recently had parted ways with my last exterminator and have gone about two months with no service and boy does it make it difference. My guy was knowledgeable and everything transpired like he said. I now am on a regular service and everything is great. I highly recommend. read more

I highly recommend Local Bug Guy. They are very responsive, always prompt and their monthly fee is very reasonable.

After recently moving to Murrieta this summer and inheriting a beautiful backyard (which included beautiful spiders weaving their webs around our above-ground hot tub) we knew we wanted to get a pest control service. I requested a couple of quotes from a few pest companies off of yelp and ended up going with "The Local Bug Guy" because they were fairly priced and seemed like a great local company and I have not been disappointed! Our Bug Guy comes out every 3 months and spray around our house & in our backyard. I mentioned where I wanted him to focus (specifically around the gazebo where our hot tub is so I can relax without worrying about a spider falling on me in the evenings!) and so far we haven't had any problems and have been incredibly pleased! I highly recommend giving this company a call if you're looking for pest control! read more

They are great! Any time I see a bug and let them know, they come out again, no extra charge! When we first moved in we had so many spiders and other little bugs, but we very rarely get bugs now. Definitely recommend! read more

Since I moved to Murrieta back in 2009, I've utilized multiple bug companies. My family and I were not pleased with there performance. I searched Yelp and read the many reviews for the Local Bug Guy and we decided to give them a try. I have approached one year using their service and my family and I are completely satisfied with them. Mike Springer has been providing the services to my home and he has been phenomenal. He is professional, courteous and notified us of the areas he noticed activity. He throughly hits all high and low areas of our home exterior. I am completely satisfied with their service and will continue using them. I highly recommend them. read more

Seriously an amazing company! I haven't had an ant or spider problem since the first visit! I love that I always have the same guy come out. Jarrod is awesome. Great service and very personable. I'd give this company more stars if I could! read more

We have had 2 visits so far, 3rd one coming up next week. Each visit they are always friendly and ensure that we are happy as customers. We had have issues with ants and they are always willing to come back out and treat areas as needed. The price for their services are competitive. They are not always prompt as on some occasions they have came later in the day the expected, but I can understand this during busy hot season they are backed up. Either way, they are always nice and ensuring the job is done right. read more

Love the service I get from Local Bug Guy. Have been a customer for about 4 years and they have been there every time I needed them. Matt is my service guy. Today, even though he was swamped with calls coming from the ants starting their summer invasion, he squeezed us in. It really means a lot to us that you guys always do everything you can to help us when we call! I can't recommend you guys enough! read more

I am not one to spray pesticides, but I had an infestation of Jadera bugs in my front yard that got so bad I found one inside my front door. I messaged Local Bug Guy for some help. Wayne came out the next day, explained how the service would work, the material he would use, where he would spray, and that it could take up to 10 days or so for the issue to be resolved. He was very friendly and wanted to make sure I would be happy with their service. After Wayne finished, he said he thought I'd see a big improvement quickly since the bugs were already starting to move slower within a few minutes of being sprayed. I look forward to having my bug-free yard back and am grateful I contacted Local Bug Guy! read more

Brent and Mike from Local bug are amazing! They are often able to get to my house same day when I have an ant problem. Ants are usually gone within 24 hours. This company is very attentive and professional. I highly recommend them! read more

This business is highly professional with character and integrity. Although they couldn't provide the service I was looking for, they went the extra mile to help. Real customer service provider!!! read more

Eric was a a amazing guy to come and fix my issue with the sweet ants and black widows. Such a professional to come and contact me same day and get the job done. Recommended with high expectations. Amazing job and thank you. read more

So far so good :) We just moved to the area and heard that Murrieta/Wildomar can have BAD ant seasons. We just moved to a new home and wanted to get ahead of the season. I choose this company because it's a local small business and they only service a small territory to better service their customers! I thought that was great! I had the pleasure of meeting Brent during our initial consultation/spraying, he was very personable. He explained his process and how each of the products he uses works. They also use a digital invoice system that makes paperwork and payments a breeze! Hopefully the ants stay away, but it nice to know they will be available when I need them! read more

Our LOCAL Bug Guy, Mike has been awesome! From the first visit going over everything he was going to spray for and what he was going to be looking for to all the regular scheduled visits and even being a text away for in between problems that arise, he was always so helpful and professional. We would highly recommend LOCAL Bug Guy! Thanks to Wayne for also being helpful on the phone! Again, highly recommend. read more

We had a particularly difficult case of ant infestation in Temecula whereby they had swarmed our dishwasher located in the kitchen island and occupied the hidden steam vent. No ant path from an exterior source was present. Traditional control methods could not be employed due to dishwasher internals. Local Bug Guy Matt explained in detail all protocols and procedures to be used and stayed fully engaged until such time no ants were present. We could not be more satisfied and ant free. read more

I switched to Local Bug Guy a year ago and I could not be more happy with the service. I tried two other pest control companies and there were areas lacking in all departments. For this pat year, Jarrod has done an excellent job on our quarterly service and on the occasions where we needed him to come in between due to severe weather or work we're doing on the house that caused some insects to come out, he was super easy to get a hold of and schedule. He always answers my questions and is very knowledgeable. His professionalism, work quality, and overall politeness are refreshing. I highly recommend this company and I'm so glad Jarrod is our bug guy. read more

Very responsive and informative. They come within hours of requesting between the quarterly visits. So grateful they got rid of our ants and spiders!!!! read more

Had a problem with ants a few years ago. I found the local big guy on yelp and boy am I glad we chose them. Not only did Mike do a great job, he would come out again to spray if we had a continued problem with ants. I definitely recommend! read more

Matt is the BEST! He is kind, always on time and very thorough. Highly recommend him to anyone!! Here's our story. We used to live in a condo and ant baits worked their magic whenever we had ants back then. It was quite different though when we moved to an actual house. We had ants in the house one day maybe about a month after we moved in and I put the ant baits hoping the situation would be taken care of within a few days as it always did. It seemed to work at first, but I realized the baits only brought more and more ants - literally an "endless" amount of them. I even witnessed "the sergeant ants" which were much bigger than normal ones and I knew that moment that I'd had enough. That's when I called the Local Bug Guy. Matt showed up that day, listened to my concerns, and explained the plan with all the details. It took a few more days till I didn't see any more ants, but the important thing is that it actually worked unlike my own method! He said it would be the quarterly service, but I could call him anytime we had bug-related issues between those regular sprays so he could treat them as quickly as possible. (The extra services would be free of charge as well!) It's been 2 years since we started their service, and he has kept his promise without exception so far. We actually had an emergency ant situation this morning (lots and lots of ants coming into my son's bedroom), and I called Matt to request a treatment. He was apparently really, really busy today, but he understood the urgency of our situation and dropped by our place to take care of it before he started his day. I couldn't thank him enough!! Again, Matt is the best technician in the area and I am happy we found him and the Local Bug Guy!! =) read more

I just want to brag on my Local Bug Guy. Oscar is an amazing bug consultant. He is always professional and provides his knowledge and experience with our "ant issues." He remains patient no matter how "off the wall" my questions may be, he takes the time to answer them without making me feel like an idiot. If Oscar is a representation of what your company is all about, you guys have a customer for life. read more

Updating once more, as shortly after our most recent service, ants appeared in our kitchen. It was just a few, but it was enough that I figured I'd check in with Wayne. Mind you, we have been using this service three years and this is the only time this has happened. It was on a Sunday, and I felt bad about texting Wayne for advice (whether or not I should spray our peppermint oil stuff), but he was responsive and even said that if it didn't work, he'd come out the next day. The peppermint oil worked for a couple of hours, but they came back by morning, and Wayne came to our rescue just a couple of hours after calling him to spray down the kitchen window from the inside of the house (it's non-toxic and didn't smell at all, in fact the peppermint oil spray I had at home was more bothersome). That definitely took care of the problem. Local Bug Guy is such a great team and they will make sure you are satisfied with their service. 100% worth it. read more

We had a serious problem with spiders (ewww). After contacting several local pest control companies, I went with Local Bug Guy. My decision was an easy one, from setting up an account, scheduling to the service itself, everyone was very friendly, prompt and professional. I already see a huge difference after just the initial visit! read more

Like most people, found these guys on Yelp, and based on the reviews, messaged them for a quote. The owner responded almost immediately, answered all my questions, and I had an appointment set up right away. When my bug guy, Jarrod, came out, he was very friendly, and explained exactly what he would be doing and how much time it would take. I have to say, I have never seen a pest control person be as thorough as Jarrod. After de-webbing the entire property, spraying inside and outside of the house, including under outdoor furniture, he came back and explained exactly what he did and how it would help. Not only was the treatment and customer service top notch, but the price was fantastic! I am very glad I chose this company and would certainly recommend them. read more

These guys are amazing! We just moved to Temecula a few months ago and immediately established recurring preventative pest control services for spiders and ants. Brent, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable and friendly and worked out a customized plan for us. They send out the same technician for each service so they become familiar with you and your property. Lee is fantastic - super responsive and helpful. We recently had issues with ants inside the house and I wanted to let him know at our next service, but I missed him when he came to spray the exterior of the house. When I texted him to ask him where to get some baits for inside the house, he came to the house immediately and not only gave us some baits but also sprayed inside - all included in our service agreement. You can't go wrong with LOCAL Bug Guy. They're awesome! read more

Very helpful and responsive! Came out a day after the initial phone call. They come quarterly but will come anytime you call if you have a problem in between services. read more

Wayne and his crew are really awesome! Super friendly, extremely helpful, fast response, and genuinely caring. They actually seem to enjoy helping and doing their jobs. I've recommended them to some of my friends. If I had family close by, I would definitely recommend them to my relatives as well. My wife and I love Local Bug Guy. We've been with them since around 2016 and looking forward to more years! read more

Great service and excellent communication. Brent and Co. do a good job, love their flexibility for scheduling and communication of each event. Had a few problems with ants that they gladly came out several times to take care of. read more

Taking a moment to express my gratitude for ERIC my Local Bug Guy guy. He is always prompt to respond when I text him. He stops by for extra sprays as often as needed and leaves me traps if needed. Today he even remembered where I've had pesky ants in the past. Thanks for all your efforts Eric. I recommend Local Bug Guy to everyone. They are a well run Update: ERIC my Local Bug Guy guy came today on a moment's notice. I've been a customers or many years and service remains top notch. Thanks Eric read more

Our Local Bug Guy Brent came and serviced our home today. As always he was on time, thorough and provided exceptional service. We had to step away and he called us to let us know what he was doing, what he had seen and the treatment plan he would be doing on our home. He made sure that we knew the possible problem areas as well as verifying that our ant issue has not returned since we first used the Local Bug Guy services. Now that means 3 years and still counting without any ant infestations in our home. Exceptional service and they treat you like family. We love our bug guy and look forward to many, many more years of service with them. read more

Found these guys on here and was impressed from the first phone call. They were friendly, fast and came out the next day for our first service. A week after our service we found a spider randomly inside and lee called me within minutes!! Talk about customer service! He came out the next day and assured myself and my son no more spiders would be back :) thank you local bug guys! read more

I had a TERRIBLE ant problem, found these guys on Yelp!, decided to give them a try. What a relief! Answered my call, got a VERY friendly rep out very timely (Jim, one of the nicest, coolest guys I've met), he was very thorough with the chemicals, plan of action, and performing the work. Whatever they used work great! I was having to throw out open containers of sugar and pasta, ants crawling out of sockets, under neath cabinets, you name it! Since these guys showed up, I literally have not seen one single ant! Follow up was there, they offer free return if you still see bugs, but now I know why it's free, because you probably won't need it! So refreshing to find a business who does things the right way! Thank you Local Bug Guy!!! read more

Called Different places for quotes, not only was Local bug guy the most affordable but his service was exceptional!

Have been using Local Bug Guy for a while now and I'm very happy with the service, professionalism, and results. Temecula is built on one big ant hill, and since starting service with Local Bug Guy, have not seen an ant indoors in a very long time. The techniques and products they use work and get great results. Also, they stand by their service and will promptly return if the problem is not resolved. Highly recommend. read more
