Ethan did a great job. Got all the areas we wanted in a thorough and professional manner.

Five stars is not enough for this company! I set up an inspection with Rachel on the phone. The same day, inspector Bo came to my house in Mission Viejo. He was on time, pleasant and did a thorough inspection. No up-selling or other baloney. He found only a small issue with some entry points that needed to be sealed and gave me good information on how to handle it. After bad experiences with the other national pest control chains giving insane bids to do basic pest control, it is very refreshing to connect with a local company with good people and excellent customer service. I highly recommend Saddleback Termite! read more

They were able to accommodate my schedule, efficiently treated the house and outside while educating me on what they were doing, but best of all NO MORE BUGS! Signed up for monthly service to keep it that way. read more

We have used 5 termite and pest control companies in Laguna Niguel over a 20 year period. Saddleback is by far the best. Their quotation was precise and thorough. The quotation was fair. The work was done on schedule and thoroughly, but also quickly. We had 3 termite estimates, one company said we had subterranean termites and wrote their quote on the back of a business card; another company, with whom we had a service contract, said we had no termites inside, and Saddleback showed me the termite holes in the wall. There is more than a little con in this industry (how else could we get three so different assessments), but not with Saddleback. The service contract company also gave us a quote to repair dry rot outside that was about 3.5 times the estimate from Saddleback. Saddleback. Saddleback replaced a patio post and much more for an amazing good price given the complexity of the work. Their pest control (rat) guy has visited twice, sealed access points for the little critters and removed the dead ones. Another company placed some traps and never came back to collect the dead rats let alone to check on whether the problem had been dealt with. Saddleback's specialist spent an hour in our attic; the other guy maybe 5 minutes. Saddleback is the best home service specialist in any field we have used in 20 years. This is an incredibly efficient and honest company. read more

(5 Stars)Jakob was very professional and work quality was excellent.

I called for service and someone responded right away. I called and they were able to have someone out to my house within a couple hours. I had a mouse in my kitchen and he inspected the kitchen and found out the point of entry and gave me great advice on how to control this from happening. He even checked the perimeter of my house and pointed out ways to control mice from getting in. He was very nice and explained what he was doing and he put my mind at ease. I would highly recommend this company for their integrity and efficiency. It's good to know there are companies like this around when you need them. read more

I was inundated with flying ants which made 2 rooms- including my sons- inhabitable. I made an appointment and had to wait almost 2 weeks to get someone out- understandable during hot summer and CV-19- and then my husband landed in the hospital for a week... they were scheduled to come the day he was coming home, after he came home he would be immobile for awhile. I called to update them and try for an earlier appointment- nope. Ok so my time window is now 9-11 am. Day of service -it's 10:30 and no one has arrived... I call and guess what? "Yes we know your situation but we cannot arrive until noon". Unbelievable!! So now I have to cancel. This company had no apologies and no compassion. I would NEVER DO BUSINESS with them again. :(. To the owner... I did hang up after I said never mind, cancel the service, IN TEARS at the situation you put me in and the rudeness of the call. :/ I had every intention of being out of the house for the 2 hours, ( until 1:30) and made major adjustments during Covid and a medical emergency to do so, but when you decide to be late, without even the benefit of a call, , knowing my situation, that says you didn't care. Please don't try to debate with me on yelp as if I'm being dishonest. read more

This company rocks! We had to have our house tented and wood repair. They made the entire process seamless! Great prices and communication. Would highly recommend this company. read more

The owner, Kevin, provided us with a prompt termite inspection at no charge. While he did find two exterior spots where termites were active and also a few dead "swarmers" in our attic, Kevin told us that if it were his home he would spot-treat the exterior and reinspect the attic in a year or two versus tenting our whole home. We sincerely appreciated this more conservative, less invasive, and significantly less expensive option versus a full-house tent which is what another company told us was our only option. Kevin's guys, Zack and Will, showed up as scheduled, were friendly, professional, and took excellent care of us: they spot-treated the exterior location, repaired and painted some dry rot spots within the same affected area (as well as in a separate unrelated area), and also reinspected our attic and marked the dead termite swarmers and their location for future inspection comparison purposes. We were charged as quoted (even though the attic procedure and extra dry rot repair were provided to us as no-charge professional courtesies, and not part of the original quote). I look forward to having Kevin back to our home for the re-inspection when the time is right. Five star service, great people to work with, and highly recommended!!! read more

This was the absolute best experience! Bo came out the same day and was so helpful and professional. Look no further these guys were great! Rachel who called for the appointment was knowledgeable and helpful! read more

Did a great job removing our nest and very reasonable as well. Arrived on time snd let me know when they were on the way to our home. Will call them again if we have a problem. read more

I called Saddleback termite for our bi-monthly pest service. From the first interaction with this business I knew it was top quality. Very knowledgeable and took the the time to explain their process. We later had a situation that owner Kevin Pena came out to inspect. He provided my husband and I guidance on how to handle a previous termite inspection from another company and wasn't just looking to obtain another job. He is honest and trustworthy and experienced. Whether you are looking for pest control service or an top quality inspection on termites call Saddleback. read more

Saddleback Termite treated a badly infested shed in my backyard a few months ago. I was somewhat skeptical of using a local treatment given the apparantly advanced infestation but the team did a very thorough job and Saddleback provides a 12 month warranty. Price was reasonable and, most importantly, no more termites which ultimately saved the shed for years to come. They'll be my first call for my future pest removal needs. read more

I had this company out last week to check my home in San Clemente for termites before starting a painting project. Kevin did the inspection and I really appreciated everything about him. He found no termites but gave a lot of advice and pointers on prevention. I would not hesitate to use this honest company! read more

Saddleback Termite is awesome. I had them inspect my house in January prior to us putting it on the market. Chris came out and performed the inspection and made recommendations with no pressure. We had the work done and are very happy. Fast forward to the last day of escrow when we were told by escrow we needed clearance. I called Nicole and she was able to get the inspector out within an hour and had the needed report completed shortly thereafter. They saved the day! The guys rock! I highly recommend them read more

Get another opinion!!!! My disabled daughter ended up with bedbugs. BTW don't pull a mattress out of storage that is not bagged and treated. I was 400 miles away so my daughter and a female caregiver were in charge of dealing with the technician. Well the Tech didn't even have his own business card. He found 2 live bugs. Yes 2 bugs could turn into 100's. I talked to the tech and the caregiver. I was freaked and told him to give me the price and the time frame. Luckily He said he could do it the next day. I rushed to her condo to empty the clothes and linens. I then started to make calls and thought that if I got a second opinion I would feel better. So I called 2 other companies one was recommended the other I used at my own house for ants. Well both were 1/2 the price of Saddleback. Saddleback was $1200.00 for a 600 SQFT condo. Yes $600.00 per bug. I ended up going with Home Shield 714 702-1052. Jason who knew the tech from Saddleback was shocked at the price. Home Shield was $485 for 2 treatments with a warranted. He treated the condo on the spot. My daughter moves back in today. Do yourselves a favor get a second bid no matter how shocked you are!!!! read more

I had been looking for a new pest control company. Had not had anyone knowledgeable or who cared about their job or their customers. Bo South came to my house and not only was he knowledgeable but he was professional and personable. I decided to sign a year contract because of his professionalism. read more

After a $6,000 quote from Service Champions to fix a "large rat problem in the attic" I called Saddleback Termite for a second opinion. Beau came out and found 1 long dead rat. He recommended putting mesh in the dryer vent and said we didn't need anything at all. Thank you Saddleback Termite for your honesty. I will certainly call you back for any future issues! read more

Bo from Saddleback Termite came to our house and did a great job. I'm happy with the customer service and the results so far.

I live in Lake Forest and this morning at 5:00am I was invaded with ants. At 7:00am I called Saddleback termite and pest control spoke with Nicole, her customer service was excellent. By 11:15am she had John out to spray my house inside and out. John was polite, explained everything to me and did a fantastic job. I am so pleased with Saddleback termite and pest control. read more

I called the company because I thought I had rats in the attic. The company came out and did an inspection. He told me no rats. He looked all around and said he could not see any signs of any vermin. He was helpful and very pleasant. He did not charge for the inspection. This is s very honest and reliable company. read more

We had a great experience with Saddleback Termite & Pest Control. We've had issues with ants for the past few weeks and finally decided to call an exterminator. On Sunday, my wife posted a request for recommendations for an exterminator on our cities Facebook page. Within hours, Saddleback responded to her post. They messaged her and answered all of her questions. As promised, they called me this morning (Monday) and scheduled to come in the afternoon. 5 minutes later they called back saying they had a cancellation and asked if I wanted them to come immediately. Jon their technician came. He was professional and knowledgeable. Our house was sprayed by 9:30 am. I highly recommend using Saddleback Termite and Pest control. They are amazing at communication and get the job done quickly and efficiently! read more

I can't tell you how impressed I was with this company. Kevin came out and walked me through everything he found. He went over in detail what they could do, gave me options, and then sent me the proposal. The guys that came out were professional, friendly, and got their work done fast and efficiently. When I asked about a certain area they gave me a very detailed explanation. There was nothing hidden from me and they went the extra mile to make sure everything was taken care of. If I could give a higher rating I would. They told me exactly what they were going to fix, and they fixed it. We hope not to have any more termites and are glad the dry rot has been fixed. Thank you Saddleback Termite and Pest Control. read more

I had a great experience with Saddleback Termite and Pest Control. I noticed ants creeping in to my house and wasted no time contacting them. They were able to schedule a visit promptly (didn't have to wait weeks). They used a non-toxic bait and after a day or two, the ants were completely gone. No ill effects on my family or dog--just results. Can't forget to mention Bo, who was friendly, professional, and very thorough with explaining the whole process. Very pleased with their service! read more

Kevin and his crew at Saddleback Termite & Pest Control know exactly how to evict unwelcome critters from your residence or building. I would strongly recommend them to anyone in need of an expert and competent pest control company. read more

These guys were great. Super friendly and knowledgeable. Kevin went above and beyond to make our unique situation right for us while buying a new house. I definitely felt I was in good hands! The repair job after treating for sub-terrain termites was great. You couldn't even tell they were there working and drilling holes in the walls or the concrete slab in garage. Nice work! read more

Called them yesterday and Bo showed up this morning. We have rodents in the attic. Bo did a complete perimeter check of the house and pointed out a few spots to put wire mesh screens on. He also gave me advice about the best way to use traps. No charge at all for them to come out for initial inspection and provided all the information I needed to take care of the problem myself. Pretty refreshing to have this type of service. Will definitely be calling these guys back in the future for any type of pest issues. read more

I am very grateful on how fast they could give us an appointment since it was last minute. Our situation was a little stressful and we really appreciate all their patience and professionalism. I recommend this company to anyone and we will definitely be using their services for any future issues. read more

After explaining my situation, Kevin, one of their technicians, took the time to give me an honest assessment. He could've easily upsell me or tried pushing his services, but this was not the case. I was surprised with his forthcoming and integrity. I am not using their services right now, but I will absolutely hire them if I end up needing them. read more

These folks are the best! Always on time, always helpful (admin support and field team!). They do a fantastic job for my home and for my business! You wont find a better exterminator in So Cal! Beau's expertise, dedication to his craft and amazing customer service deserve at least 6 stars...! read more

Grade A service and professionalism from both Kevin and Rachel at Saddleback Termite. I encountered an extremely difficult situation whereby, immediately after close of escrow, I found a massive termite infestation in my home which the seller had failed to disclose and which was improperly addressed by another, big-name termite company in the area. Needless to say, this turned into a desperate situation for me as I was unable to actually move into the home I had just purchased until it was properly treated and repairs were made. Kevin and his team were responsive, thorough, professional, and most of all, empathetic toward my situation. I live in an attached home and Kevin even took time to speak to my neighbor in person to put her at ease and to explain the fumigation process in detail. Both my neighbor and I had many follow-up questions and Kevin was always available to answer them (even though I'm sure we asked the same questions more than once!). I cannot say enough about this great company and will use them again in the future for routine inspections. No need to shop elsewhere - these guys are the best. read more

Hired Saddleback to perform a termite/pest inspection on a home purchase. Kevin was so thorough and helpful! Although, the sellers wanted to use their own company for the work, I will definitely be calling them when our home is due for follow up inspections/fumigation. read more

Highly recommend. I had a roach problem and have not seen live roaches so far besides dead ones. They got the job done and were able to schedule me in short notice. If I still have some pest problems, at least I know who to contact for reliable service. read more

Very impressed with Kevin's response time and quickness to get things completed. We deal with many service providers and the response from Saddleback Termite for a re-inspection was quick, prompt, and professional. With that said, my client was happy which made our brokerage happy. Thanks again for your help and running a professional organization. read more

I found some rat poop in my furnace. I called Saddleback after searching yelp for highly rated pest control companies. The person I dealt with over the phone was friendly and quick, and I had an appointment set up to take a look at things a couple of days after I called. Bo and Will came out and took a look, and told me it was an old infestation and not new, and how to tell the difference. They then did a thorough inspection of the house, checking for entry points, saying everything looked good and it looked like the remains of an old infestation. Then they didn't charge me, saying they didn't do anything. That said, they gave me a good education on rats, what to look for, how to protect my home, and how to tell the difference between a new and old infestation. Pretty awesome. read more

I had a fantastic experience with this company. We had termites on our front wood porch and some live ones in the house. We wanted a fumigation done. A free inspection is done first. Kevin Peña came out to our house to inspect. He is really nice, knowledgeable, thorough, trustworthy, and has worked locally for years. He even had his fumigator come out and do a quick inspection to make sure the quote was completely accurate. I got an inspection and quote from another company that was cheaper but I decided to go with Saddleback because of their knowledge, and thoroughness. Kevin was able to get us a fumigation date very quickly and sent me a link to help me get ready and know what to expect. I picked up the special bags from their office and proceeded to pack up all my food and toiletries. The fumigation guys came within the time period I was told. They warned me about a few things that might be affected by the heavy tarp that gets put on the house. They were finished before the allotted time on the third day. I was assured I could enter the house with no problems. It was a great experience overall. They made it as easy and painless as possible. I would highly recommend them!!! read more

Thanks Saddleback Termite Control! Your team did a great job and fixed all the damaged fascia from all of the termite critters. It looks great! Your team was easy to work with and very professional! Next is the actual fumigation, looking forward to working with you again! Will recommend you guys in a heartbeat : ) Thanks again for all the great work! read more

Bo was very nice and helpful for our initial inspection/appointment! Great experience so far!

My husband and I met Kevin in 2014 after doing some remodeling during which termite droppings were noted by our contractor at the time. We contacted Kevin to come out and inspect. He was extremely thorough and professional in his inspection and in the explanation of next steps. As a Realtor, I've worked with a number of termite companies over the years. Since Kevin and his wife, Rachel, are the owners of Saddleback Termite, I had high hopes that his professionalism and integrity would be superior to others I had encountered in the past. I was so pleased to find that Kevin's services exceeded my expectations! He offered us great advice on how to best address the infestation we had, and gave us clear and complete information so that we could make the best choice for our specific situation. Kevin recently completed an inspection and repairs for one of my clients who purchased the home he was renting directly from his landlord. The landlord hired his "usual" termite inspector to come out and inspect. I recommended that my client have Kevin give a second opinion. Thank goodness he took my advice! Kevin's thorough inspection revealed that a metal roof had been put on the house over the existing shingle roof, an important fact that the other termite company never mentioned. There was infestation at that property that could not be treated locally as a result, so other measures had to be taken to correct the problem. Had Kevin not been there to give my client the true and complete picture of the existing problems, my client could have blindly purchased the property and run into even bigger problems and expenses later as a result! I trust Kevin's integrity, experience and professionalism to give all of my clients accurate information about any wood destroying pests. I'm grateful to know Kevin and look forward to working with him for as many years as I can! read more

The team at Saddleback Termite really came through for me considering my busy work schedule and while I'm going through a home renovation. I only had one day during the week to get part of my home treated for subterranean termites and despite being short handed she pulled through and made it happen! Very very accommodating which is plus in my book when it comes to tradesmen. Highly recommend them! read more
