I have used Scarmite Termite Inspections twice. Once three years ago when we bought our house. We had some dry wood termites and they did the inspection and treatment, fixed some wood beams outside, and now three years later they have come back to inspect and they are still gone. However, they did find a new infestation of subterranean termites under the house. They just reinforced the floor joist and treated for the termites and they did it fast and perfect. I have a two-year warranty and I am so relieved to have this taken care of and totally trust this company. They are very professional and courteous. I will call them every time. read more

Raphael and his crew were amazing!!! They worked tirelessly through the hot weather and treated my whole house thoroughly, the issues were communicated well and they gave me a kickass deal. They also made sure to come all the way back and troubleshoot an issue that turned out to be a flipped power switch in my attic that they accidently left off when they finished. So grateful for their hard work! Highly recommend!!!! read more

Rafael and his team did an outstanding job. They went above and beyond what was necessary. We had some subterranean and dry wood termite in small areas and he treated the whole house! Even removed the debris from under the house for free and was more affordable than the other quotes we got! Definitely 5 stars! read more

Rafael was recommended by a neighbor and we decided to use his service since we saw evidence of small pests in and around the house. I was very impressed with his attitude and I deviated from my usual policy and paid him in advance for all three treatments that he proposed. I was concerned about whether he would follow through with his service but I needn't have been worried. He came back and did the work just as he indicated he would. Rafael is a very personable individual and offered additional suggestions for safeguarding our home. I heartily recommend him if you have need of any of the services he suggests. read more

This Company performed a Termite Inspection for one of our listings. The Buyer hired the company. After speaking with Rafael about his findings, he became defensive and cold...which raised a red flag and caused suspicion in my mind. As a result, we got a second opinion a few days later from a reputable company in the area who has been in the Termite business for over 20 years and good ratings, and they confirmed that there were no "Termite Droppings" anywhere in the home or the attic. The new Termite Inspector checked the exact area where Scaremite noted Termite Droppings, and they confirmed that it was actually dust! The house did not need $2800 worth of tenting after all. It is awful to know that there are companies and businesses out there that are not dealing transparently or honestly. By Hiring Scaremite, there was unnecessary worry for both Buyer and Seller. read more

I really couldn't ask for more. Rafael came out and did such a good job with a known termite issue that I had him inspect the rest of the home and spray around. On top of that he gave me a warranty on his work for a couple years. I would not hesitate to recommend Rafael and Scaremite to anyone. read more

I contracted Scaremite Termite last year to do some extermination work on my detached garage that my general contractor discovered when he demolished the walls in order to put new ones in place. I knew that at some point I needed work done in my home and I figured that if I had a good relationship with the company that did the work on my garage, then I could consider them for work in my main home. However, I was disappointed in the service that was provided. My wife previously posted on her experience. I am going to post my different experience I had with this company: 1. Tardiness - My wife mentioned it in another post, but I would like to iterate how annoying it is when people are late to their appointments. I can understand if somebody misses the mark when its 5-10 minutes late due to traffic, but when it is longer than 15 minutes, you're dropping the ball. Especially, if you don't call and let me know that you are running late. 2. The person did not come at the agreed upon appointment time - When the service technician came over, he reviewed the condition of the wall and then we settled on a date and time for when he was going to do the work. As we were having this discussion, a general contractor that was also doing work in the garage was also present and was a witness to the agreement. When the appointed time came, I called my general contractor who was doing work in my garage at that time and he told me that the termite technician had not arrived yet. I waited for a while and the termite technician was yet to arrive. I called the technician and asked what was going on and he told me that he thought that he scheduled the appointment for a different day. I told him not so and we rescheduled for another time. I then called my general contractor and asked him if he heard what day and time I told the termite technician we were going to meet and he told me the exact day and time that we had agreed to. If the general contractor got it, the termite contractor should have got it as well. 3. Price for work - When the termite inspection was done, the technician saw that the termite damage occurred on only one wall of the garage. He told me that he would charge me $400 to treat the wall that had the damage. After he left I was planning on calling other termite exterminators in the area when I received a call from the termite technician attempting to clear up any confusion and letting me know that the $400 work was for the entire garage, not just the wall. After the call, I went ahead and called the general contractor who was a witness to that conversation as well and asked him what did he think the termite exterminator was including in scope for $400 and he told me the wall, and only the wall. He called out what the exterminator was saying as, I quote, "BS." 4. Inspection of work - I was away on business and I was not on hand to validate the work that the termite exterminator did on my property. The termite exterminator expected my very pregnant wife to step into the garage with all the chemicals that were applied to inspect the garage in order to validate the work. I then discussed the matter with the technician over the phone and asked if he can either video phone or send me a picture of a sample of the work he did in order for me to know how to verify the work that was done on my return. It was like pulling teeth. I am a customer and I expect-within reason-to be shown any work that was done in my home. I don't think I have had an unpleasant experience asking for proof of work from anybody else other than this case. You can read my wife's review on her point of view on this event. I believe in having strong relationships with people you work with. I wanted to have a good relationship with this company and after seeing some of the yelp reviews, I hoped it would be a good experience. I hope that after the garage, we can potentially address my home as well. I've had great working experiences with other contractors and have reused their services several times as a repeat customer. However, this has been singularly the worst experience I've had with a contractor to date. He included some sort of warranty with his work, but quite frankly, if I had any future issues in my garage, I will hire some else than use the warranty and utilize his services again. I did not rate this place 1 star because I was able to validate that the work was done, nothing more. What a shame. You may be wondering why I am reviewing now just over a year later? Simply because I-and my neighbors-now need termite services for my home and it boils my blood that I have to look for someone else to do the work and figured that I'll finally document my review of this company while it's still vividly on my mind. read more

Great service arrives on time takes his time and kills all the bugs. Also, backs up his work with a guarantee.

Have been using Rafael since he started his company. He is knowledgeable, thorough and polite. His prices are fair. He is prompt at responding and trustworthy. read more

The representative or owner of this company is not reliable and we will not be using his services again or recommending him to anyone. First off, he was late all three times he came over and never once called to let us know he was running late. I had to call him and his excuse always was, "there's traffic" and it didn't matter what time of day it was. My husband was at work when Rafael came to work on our garage and asked Rafael if he can facetime him once the work was done to show him what he did (I was at home but could not go into the garage due to chemicals and being 6 months pregnant). Rafael "showed" me the work he did from several feet away (I had no idea what I was looking at) and said he didn't need to facetime my husband anymore since he showed me. I called my husband who insisted to facetime and Rafael seemed really bothered by this based on his mannerisms and comments such as "I guess, yeah, that's fine". When I asked what the big deal was, he stated, and I quote, "he doesn't trust me and he doesn't trust you". Excuse me? My husband doesn't trust me? I don't even know you and you don't know us at all, how can you say my husband doesn't trust me? Rafael continued to complain to me about my husband because my husband wanted to go over the work Rafael did in our garage. He did apologize and stated, "I don't mean to be rude" but still continued to complain to me about my husband. At the end of the day, he got the work done but was very, very unprofessional. As I mentioned above, we will obviously not be contacting him for future work and will not recommend him to anyone. read more
