Moxie Pest Control - Orange County - Pest Control Near Me - Irvine, California

I just canceled my service with Moxie. They do a great job at selling you the service but quite frankly I've had more pests since they took over. Yes, they say all you got to do is call and they'll come back out but that means you have to make arrangements again to give them access. Just not easy-to-do-business-with. They charged the last remaining call I had under contract $150. Really? A contract is a contract - I understand. I'm cancelling the other remaining home as soon as the contract is over. read more

I called them to do a cockroach treatment on my unit in our office building. They came down and said the whole building needed to be sprayed but I needed a solution right away so they said they could just treat my unit and they gave me a quote for a treatment plan on my unit quarterly then the day of after I put all my stuff in bags and in the middle of the room at 8 o'clock in the morning, they told me that the owner of the building needed to confirm he was gonna spray the entire building before they sprayed my unit. They should've told me that from the very beginning the guy had a hard time even finding my place. I had to run out in the street and wave them down and then the day of they canceled on me when they told me they could do it and now my whole place is in shambles bad business. read more

Moxie Pest Control - Orange County - Pest Control Near Me - Irvine, California

We have had Moxie for monthly pest service for a couple years. They found rodent and insect activity in the attic, recommended sanitizing and replacing the soiled insulation for $9K. One of the installers had a huge sucker-bite on his neck and we witnessed him frequently scratching his crotch throughout the day. GROSS! He used our bathroom without asking and left it a mess. Wife donned hazmat equipment to clean. They blew in the attic insulation and we found insulation matter raining down in and outside the house through the vents and ceiling lights, fans, especially the garage that had a layer of this stuff on everything. He said he'd clean it up but only did cursory job, basically left a mess. read more

We originally signed up for their service as a preventative measure as we never really had pest issues before. After four services, we ended up with more bugs, spiders, and even roaches than ever. We have never seen ants in our house, and 2 days after our last service, we had an unbelievably massive trail of ants crawling from their exactly treatment area, onto our couch. this affirmed we made the right decision on canceling service. Every time we voiced concern, we were told that "an increase in activity for 14-21 days is normal" because their products are for long-term use. That might make sense once, but their treatments are quarterly, so by their own logic, you'd constantly be in a cycle of "increased pest activity" that never ends. It completely defeats the purpose of hiring a pest control company in the first place. We paid $185 per visit to create a pest problem instead of preventing one. Highly recommend people look elsewhere for a company that actually delivers results and peace of mind. read more

Moxie Pest Control - Orange County - Ants started a trail on our couch from the wall. Picture doesn't do it justice. Again, this was 2 days requested to cancel. - Pest Control Near Me - Irvine, California

I appreciate working with Moxie for the last two years. We have the basic service for the bug spray and outdoor rodent issues (pain of living by the canyon). So far they have been very responsive and very effective for insect control. Few months ago my house was invaded by ants and Adam E. was very helpful. He came back to spray the house for bird mites after we had bird nests in our rafters. Another time we had our hibiscus infested with white bugs and they came and sprayed the plant following a major trim by our Gardner. No more issues since then. read more

I strongly advise against signing up with Moxie Pest Control. Here's why: They bill you regularly but don't provide the service as promised. If you have a dog in the backyard, they simply skip that area instead of finding a solution. When you follow up, they don't respond or take accountability. They lure you in with friendly service at first, but once you're locked into their contract, the experience changes completely. Breaking the contract costs $300-$400, which feels like a trap. Please do not fall for their contract. Look for a company that values honesty and customer service. read more

They corrected the oversight at the one-month followup visit. The tech was personable and gave me a detailed rundown. It's only been a month so I can't swear that it's been making a difference, but will update in a few. read more

Every experience with Moxie has been awesome!! We had ants and spiders in our backyard and their service worked great. It's also pet and kids friendly!! Highly, highly recommend!! read more

Stay away...this is a cult-like operation. They have great salespeople, but then send their technicians unannounced. At the time of service, I was traveling quite a bit and needed to be home to instruct the technician where the pest control service was needed. Canceling is a real hassle, and their responses are completely scripted. read more

We started using Moxie September 2025 for a cockroach infestation in our apartment! Moxie was quick to respond always on time and had the most helpful and kind contractors assisting us! Since using their services, we have seen great improvement in our home, making us feel safe and clean! We purchased a full year of services and use them once a month! 1000% worth every penny read more

DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE!! A moxie representative knocked on our door in August and we bought the pest + mosquito service. The first guy was nice, but EVERY other time, they have been terrible! They FORGOT one of the mosquito buckets and the other one was cracked! We have 2 dogs and we Repeatedly told them we needed an hour's notice so we could lock the dogs in the house. They never gave us more than 15 minutes notice AND they left the back gate open THREE TIMES and my dogs got out! PLUS, they charged us different amounts each month for the same service, which is highly exploitative!! read more

Great staff who are always attentive both in person and over the phone. I've been using their services for over a year now, and it truly works. They come on time and communicate thoroughly. It was actually very hard initially to find a company that provided their services. Way way way less rodents since I've used them and even when there are rodents, they are in the traps they have set. read more

Do yourself a favour stick with Terminix. The service is still don't work I have insects and I have never gone away or even been slightly less because of the service. Moxie is a rip off... Moxie Pest control comes to your door offers you a "discount " of $99 for their services. What I agreed to was a service every 90 days for 12 months. But you're locked into what you think is one year. It's actually five services. Which is a 15 month commitment not a 12 month commitment ? After the initial $99 ineffective 'treatment' service cost go up to $169 each 3 months. The claim is that they gave you a discount from $269 to $99 If you want to cancel they charge you that $170 that was your "discount " and the penalty for not staying the entire 15 months - which you think is only 12 months. When it's initially explained there's somebody at the door with a computerised contract so of course you don't read it because you actually believe them and it is explained quite well.... Just not truthfully or accurately. You really don't get a good bang for your buck . Even if your job situation changes and your finances change, they don't care and I was told if I did not pay they would just charge the rest of it on my credit card. I had to cancel my credit card and of course pay them the last ineffective treatment by check Now they want $170 to cancel a service that I'm not even getting. I was deceived in signing what I believed was a 12 month agreement for $99 at every three months instead it's 15 months. When I complained, I got an email and in the email it was stated " here's the agreement we agreed on and that you requested" I never asked them to send me anything. I requested they waive the cancellation fee because I was deceived and they did a bad job. Every time they come to service your house, there is a text with a review request and they ask for a tip for the technician that does your services. Unfortunately, I can't write less than one star :( If you don't pay, they simply send you to collections that that's what they told me And quite honestly, I still have insects so the service is ineffective very disappointing Very and uncaring unsympathetic you are just a number in their system. I guess how they have been able to become a large business is by ripping everyone off and not being held accountable. If I can file a complaint on Yelp every day I will and I'm reaching out to Better Business bureau CLEARLY I'm not the only one that's experienced this read more

Zero stars. Main guy drops of truck loads of people to solicit business...permits are required to solicit in our city. Extremely rude sales pitch. Our whole city who communicates on an app won't give them business. This is the PROFESSIONAL business card they left...what a joke read more

Complete scam. Avoid doing business with them at all costs. Typical over promise under deliver. Only set out boxes you can get at HD for $25 and they want to charge $100 to put them there and sweep the eves. Call them in for "warranty" they wait until next month to schedule so they can charge a monthly service fee. Thanks Priscilla, I spoke with office and they wanted me to try and continue service with them. I'd rather pay $200 to get out of contract than continue on for 7 more months at $100/month. read more

I will never consider this company because of their door to door salesman that ignored my no soliciting placcard on my front door. It's not just that he ignored it. It's that he tried giving me a line of BS after I answered the door. He asked if his guy was here last month without telling me who he was or what company he worked for. After I said no thank you he said OK that's fine, we'll turn your service off then. I despise people who come to my door then start spewing lies. read more

I've been a Moxie customer for several years, but like many companies, their service visits have become shorter and less thorough over time. Recently, I received a letter informing me that my quarterly fee would be increasing by 24%. I signed a 48-month contract at $XX, but apparently that agreement holds no legal weight for them. Yet, if I were the one to break the contract, they'd have no problem enforcing penalties. Very disappointing -- I do not recommend this company.k read more

Moxie is the worst service. I just got billed for a quarterly payment of $180 for them to spray my wet under construction property one time. Our account automatically turned back on after being on hold for 6 months, they came out and sprayed a dirt lot basically. I called to cancel the service because we aren't paying for someone to spray our dirt property and they said sure, just pay us $180 for your quarterly fee. Absolute fraud. Our entire neighborhood cancelled the service already I should have listened to my neighbors. Charging for a quarterly service for a one time spray is a disgusting way to conduct business. Do not hire them. read more

Adam Escalera did an excellent job and appreciate his help keeping my home pest free!

If do not value the importance of honey bees, then by all means go ahead and go with Moxie services. If you actually care, then I can tell you as a unsatisfied past customer, you will find hundreds of dead honey bees around the parameter of your home. They claim it does not affect the honey bees, which is clearly an absolute lie. Also, be prepared to fully understand that lengthy contract before you sign it. If you try to cancel the service early your fee will be $200. They also claim it's safe for humans and pets. I'm done taking that risk with my health. It's not worth it! read more

I've had Moxie Pest control servicing my home for over a year now. All is good with the bug /lawn granules to keep pests away. And now the problem starts. They called me and said I have a free termite inspection. I had Marcus out today to perform that service. No termites were visible. He did make holes in my trim around my windows and I told him it was dry rot, but he continued to make the holes bigger. Now I have to have it replaced sooner than I wanted to. Then he gave me a price of $2800 for termite bait. Called me a hr later and said if I do it Saturday he would knock off $200. We'll I felt he was trying to make his quota and take advantage of me. My point is I probably would have done the work if he would have not tried to up sale me and take advantage. These so called salesman need to know not all women are idiots. At this point im not sure im going to keep Moxie as my bug company now. I'm searching for a new company now. read more

They installed termite traps which were in the ground for two years. That was fine. But when I asked them to remove the traps, they came and took them out. But they left about 2.5 foot deep holes with a-diameter of at least 3 inches in my lawn. There are about 14 of these holes all abound my house. I asked Moxie to fill the holes that they drilled and they refused to do this. I wouldn't recommend such a c read more

Moxie just started to illegally double bill me under the guise of "to provide our amazing customers with a more practical, convenient way to account for Moxie in their budget, we are moving to monthly billing for our quarterly pest services." (Direct quote from email). Moxie changed from quarterly to monthly billing for my 1 year contract commitment. They subsequently charged me quarterly fees of $169 in October which should cover Oct/Nov/Dec. Then charged me a second time at the monthly rate of $56.34 for November. Super sketchy if I wasn't paying attention, I would be charged double for November and December. Not cool. Pretty much fraud. Went from 2 stars to 1 star. read more

A bit nervous about previous reviews but will try to keep an open mind. First service today and so far very happy. Josh my tech arrived on time was polite and professional.

Thank you Josh! read more

Subject Ongoing Repair Issues Following Damage Caused by Moxie Pest Control As a consumer, I feel obligated to continue informing you of my ongoing issues with Moxie Termite Pest Control. By way of brief recap: On July 28, 2025--five months ago--a Moxie employee damaged a heating and air conditioning duct in my ceiling. After a significant delay, Moxie finally hired a contractor to complete the repairs. The contractor scheduled the duct repair for a separate day, requiring me to stay home. This was followed by the drywall repair on yet another day, again requiring me to remain home. When the drywall repair technician left, he did so without speaking to me, and I later noticed that the ceiling patch was still clearly visible and unfinished. At no point has anyone from Moxie management come to my home to inspect either the damage or the quality of the repairs. I have now been informed that the contractor will be sending the repair technician back, which will require me to stay home for yet another day. Many days lost before these days just trying to get Moxie to move on the repair in the first place. Frustrating! I will finish up with one last post when it's done. read more

I want to post an excellent review on the two technicians who came to my property to do their quarterly maintenance. Sean L. and his field technician wentb above and beyond they're duty to inspect every single inch of our property and home looking any type of bug and rodent activity. They must of spent a good deal of time doing all their fumigation. They were very receptive and answered all my questions. I couldn't be any happier with my service. Over 10 years of service and their still doing strong. I personally think they're the best in the industry.! read more

When I look for a new service, I usually do a lot of research. With Moxie, I was caught off guard because a salesman knocked on my door to give his sales pitch and showed me a wasp nest hanging under my roof. Like someone else mentioned here, he kept emphasizing that so and so a few doors down and so and so a few doors across also use their service. Don't know if it's true or not but they better not sell my name to pitch to my neighbors because I am no longer a customer and I would never recommend their service. Now reading through the reviews, I see that they're just a company with questionable business ethics repeating bad service. The one smart thing they are doing is pushing their door-to-door sales tactics since they would get zero business through referrals or word of mouth. I'm sure all they do is look for new neighborhoods and try to get new sign-ups rather than trying to retain existing customers. It's a horrible business model, but apparently it works for them. I think most customers would follow in my steps, get caught off guard signing up through a door-to-door sales pitch and then come to this review page only after it's too late. But for what it's worth, here's why you should NOT sign up with Moxie. When the salesman gives his pitch, he makes it sound like they can and will do everything for you. Well, just know that they basically can't do anything for you because of safety or liability issues. Yes, they did remove the wasp nest, but all they did was drop it onto my roof. So now I have a wasp nest sitting on my roof. When I asked them to remove it, they said they can't use ladders to perform any work because of safety issues. Had I known that their idea of "removing a wasp nest" is simply knocking it down with a long stick I would not have signed up for their service. During the sales pitch I was also told that they can remove all the cobwebs around my house. When I asked someone to remove some on the ceiling of my garage during a service call, they said they aren't allowed to because of liability issues. Well, the cobwebs I want removed are the ones inside my garage. Leave the cobwebs outdoors alone, that's nature. When I asked them to close my account, they said I received a steep discount for my initial service and will need to pay that back. So that's another way they make money since apparently they know customers aren't going to last through their subscription. Another annoying part is all the customer reps mindlessly repeating what they are trained to say. When I was explaining my situation they kept saying "I completely understand, I would be frustrated too." Well, then do something about it. The best part was when the customer rep gave her sales pitch to call them back when I see increased pest activity while I was closing my account because I was so fed up with them. At this point, I just laughed and told her that would never happen so don't count on it. read more

This place tied me into some agreement that wasn't fully explained to me until a year after I entered it requesting to cancel. Kept sending people to "service" my apartment (I wasn't home so I didn't receive it) after I was told I cancelled all services/closed my account. Now I have to pay $300 for services I don't want/haven't had any effect on my apartment. The people are very nice but I believe this place overcharges/does not communicate their policies very well, trapping you into multiple payments. I thought I signed up for 4 services I could cancel if need be, come to realize it's 5 and it's a contract I can't leave. The charge for cancelling is only a $9 difference from the price of the actual service. Flea treatment had zero effect. Huge waste of money and wish I had gone elsewhere. read more

Everardo (Ever) was fantastic. He serviced our home's interior and exterior, and the experience was perfect. He was punctual, communicated precisely where he was targeting, and gave us proper expectations for the timeline upon which the product would work. He also reassured us that Moxie would come back out free of charge if we were not happy with the service. I had to give him a special shout-out; I highly recommend Ever and his team! read more

Very poor customer service. I requested company to reschedule service as I was traveling. They ignored my request, and still showed up at my home without my permission. The technician spent less than 5 minutes outside the home and company charged my credit card for the service. I demand an apology, and a full service on date that I am available as a make up for being charged for nothing. read more

This company routinely targets homes in my neighborhood using abrasive and rude door to door solicitation tactics. Elderly home owners are particularly targeted into signing unnecessary contracts. My neighborhood has "no soliciting" signs prominently posted at all entrances, yet this company willing chooses to ignore the fact in hopes of signing contracts. Do yourself a favor and research other companies. If Moxie so willing breaks rules to get in, what makes you think they will be upstanding in their other business practices? read more

Shady company. They pushed through a closed fence and ignored the no soliciting signs, no trespassing signs, and danger dogs signs. No respect for people's privacy, and flat out trespassed on my property. If this is how they treat potential customers, imagine when they do once they get your credit card. Actually you can find out if you google them. Avoid them ! read more
