Verde team are fantastic, honest, reliable, friendly and get the job done. Fairly priced and no contract, local company that actually care about what they do and the people they work with. Soooo much better than the large companies - we tried two different large companies before this that were terrible, they would do a decent job on initial visit then on next scheduled visit would be on the property for less than 5 minutes and say they didn't have supplies they needed and would come back - then never did. Had to threaten a lawsuit to get out of contract because the other place did such a bad job and didn't take care of the issues we were paying them for. Verde on the other hand took care of all rodent and insect issues, and the regular maintenance visits are thorough, they are always prepared, and we've never had any insect or rodent issues since. read more

Wait! This thing only goes up to 5 stars?!?! :-) I say that because if I could give Verde more stars I would. The products they use to deter pests are not only superior and effective, but they are environmentally friendly - safe around your little ones and furry friends. I am always given clear instructions to allow the spray to dry up before letting pets and kids roam (usually about 20 minutes or so). I've used their services for about a year and would recommend them over all others. They have been responsive during times of increased pest activity and their routine services are timely and effective (for my needs where I stay, I typically have them come by quarterly during the cold months and monthly when it's warmer). Finally, the smile that you see in the photos from the owner is actually a perfect reflection of how Ray and his team interact with their customers. They're pleasant, professional, kind, courteous and a pleasure to do business with. read more

We had an issue with mice getting into our garage and called Verde Pest Control for help. From the first visit, we knew we were in good hands. Ray came out for a free consultation and took the time to thoroughly inspect the area and explain everything clearly. He was super friendly and knowledgeable. You can tell he genuinely cares about his work and his clients. Ray shared that he had worked with the San Diego Zoo for many years, and it really showed in how thoughtfully and humanely he approached the situation. They don't just throw traps around. They take the time to find out why the mice are getting in and fix the problem at the source. Ray sealed up any cracks or holes he found and set traps in the right areas. He came back weekly to check on everything and make sure the issue was resolved, which we really appreciated. Verde Pest Control is a family-owned, veteran-led business, and you can feel the difference in how they operate. Ray's wife and family help run the business, and everyone we interacted with was transparent, kind, and easy to talk to. They were clear about pricing and gave us honest recommendations without trying to upsell us on anything we didn't need. Overall, great experience! They solved our mouse problem quickly and in a way that aligned with our values. I highly recommend them if you're looking for honest, high-quality, and humane pest control. Ray was excellent, and we're grateful for the care and attention he gave to our home. Before hiring one of the commercial companies I would suggest giving Verde a call! Family owned business are typically my go to because they have less overhead and are priced fairly! Verde delivers quality work for a great price! read more

We've had a great experience with Verde Pest Control. Ray has been excellent with communication every step of the way, which makes a huge difference. Michael, the technician who most recently came out, is always thorough, remembers the details of our property, and asks thoughtful questions to make sure things are improving. Living in Valley Center with all the wildlife, it's important to have a team that really understands the environment--and they do. You can tell they genuinely care about taking care of their customers. Highly recommend! read more

I started my search for a company to treat a tenant's rat problem with appointments for five estimates. Ray was the only one to both show up and then provide a written estimate. The visit was very thorough and he showed me every spot that needed to be addressed. The estimate was very detailed and accurately described all the steps he would take to eliminate the problem. Ray then showed up on time for four subsequent appointments to check traps, refill bait, and block entry points. He told me he likes to continue with once-a-month service but would not require me to sign a contract for that service. I thought his four-week service was very reasonable and actually expected about triple the cost! Overall, a very personable guy with a lot of good, detailed information and great service. It seems the rat problem has been eliminated but, if they return, I will only call Ray! It's a great feeling to know I've found my pest control company and never again need to check for others. read more

My family and i are greatly appreciative to Ray's availability and promptness to handle our issue... I would highly recommend Verde Enviromental and Pest Management. read more

Ray is excellent and really knows what he's doing. He and his assistant Daniel work really well together, and both answered any question I had. I highly recommend this company. read more

Highly recommend! Not only as a team professional and knowledgeable, but they are also friendly and kind. I was having a rodent problem in my attic and they got rid of all issues in just about one week, and they continue to check everything for 30 days and make sure that everything was OK. I ended up having them come back to do general pest control for bugs and they not only sprayed to protect my home, but they also cleaned up all the extra cobwebs and things that had built up around my house that I couldn't reach. Can't thank them enough! Highly recommend. read more

Great experience with verde! Responsive whenever I contacted and was very knowledgeable about what they do. I would highly recommend!

Ive been having troubles with gophers living in valley center. They are killing hundreds of dollars of landscape. I've had one of the top big gopher exterminators come out for a quote. They were horrible, they were late, he seemed shot out and hated his job and wanted an arm and a leg to Do the job and said it would be multi times he would have to come out. I ended up finding Ray and getting a appt set. He came out and was VERY professional and knowledgeable about what needed to get done. He wasn't trying to sell us on anything and was very genuine person. We plan on using him for the ant problem also here In Valley center during summer. I wish I found verde environmental first so I didn't have to waste time, thank you ray for helping us out read more

Great service. Really appreciated the effort and really took the time to look around to make sure my home is safe from the little snake that luckily got away. read more

Great customer service and priced competitively. All the staff are knowledgeable and communicate well when they are coming.

We received excellent service and good advice from this company. Ray was quick to respond and we felt so much better after his first visit.

Verde is an excellent pest control company! Ray is always helpful, professional, and punctual. They've taken care of spiders, ants, ear wigs, and rats. Thanks for everything, Verde! read more

Prior Tenants left roaches. Verde came sprayed inside, outside, everywhere. No more roaches! It was about 3 days of them dying. Ray follows up, is very informative, knowledgeable & reasonably priced. A 10+ company, guy & team. read more

We had a really bad ant issues at our house, we tried everything ourselves to rid them. I reached out via yelp to Verde Environmental and received a reply the next morning. They have very reasonable pricing and Ray came out that day. The ants decreased within hours and were completely gone within 24 hours. Ray just came for our first monthly maintenance and we still haven't seen one ant! You can reach Ray via text which is so convenient and he replies right away. They are a very honorable company, I am so thankful we found them. read more

Just take a look at Ray Lomba's steller 5-star ratings here on Yelp and you know it's a testament to his faith based values of honesty, integrity, honor, discipline and hard-work with attention to detail. Ray is a rock-solid adherent to the concept of "total customer satisfaction" from an experienced professional who knows his business and who takes the requisite care to communicate with customers in a friendly, affable manner. Ray was quick to respond to my backyard gopher issue and snuffed out the problem with lightening speed.....and at a very reasonable rate. I'm pleased to be able to chime in with the rest of the Yelp gang and award him with this 5-star review! Ray clearly stands out amongst the crowd! Call him! read more

Rats. Rats. Everywhere. The DIY method wasn't working and the rats were laughing at us. I called Ray and he responded within minutes. He was at the house the next morning and within a week we had everything set up and were ready for them. Within a few days we had them on the run and after 2 months they had surrendered! Ray is great to work with and really knows what he's doing. He comes when he says he is going to come and does what he says he is going to do. Oddly, that is rare these days. Bonus - he like our dogs and they like him back! read more

Verde Environmental & Pest Management - Table for 3 - Pest Control Near Me - Escondido, California

I submitted the contact me card on the Verde Pest Control website and received an email back within a day asking for additional information and to set up a free inspection. Ray came out to provide the inspection and was extremely personable and knowledgeable. We have continued to have yearly problems with gophers in our area and was looking for a more cost-effective treatment option. Ray gave me the pricing which was very reasonable and was able to do the service on the same day. He also noticed some rodent droppings and checked our attic for any signs of active rodent problems (thankfully there were no signs) and he closed up a vent to avoid any unwanted rodent guests in the future. I am very pleased with the service and will continue to use Verde for future pest needs. read more

All I can say is WOW!! I am extremely impressed with how Ray & the Verde team were able to jump into action when I was having a fly infestation crisis!! Yesterday I noticed my apartment was infested with flies so my boyfriend immediately called the Verde team even though the office had already closed for the day, however Ray still picked up the phone & was willing to help us! Ray came over the next day as soon as possible, he walked me through the process of getting my apartment sprayed, informed me of the different spices of flies I had(THERE WERE 4 DIFFERENT KINDS) & gave me many tips on how to prevent this from happening in the future. Ray was extremely professional, friendly & eager to help! I definitely felt like I was in safe hands leaving my apartment alone to Ray. I left the house for a few hours & when I came back I was SHOCKED with the difference! Within just a few hours my apartment is already looking back to normal & my stress levels have dropped! Ray even left me free fly traps to keep around the apartment for any lingering flies! I'm am beyond grateful for the Verde team & Ray helping me throughout such horrible situation! I highly recommend the Verde Environmental & Pest Management to EVERYONE!! Thank you so much Ray!! read more

Ray and the team were wonderful. Friendly, quick, and thorough. We had a huge ant problem that was immediately resolved after the treatment. Very pleased. read more

My lady discovered a fly problem we were having while I was on shift (firefighter) and by problem I mean an infestation. Hundreds of flies had hatched and were flying all over the apartment. It was clear just a few fly traps wasn't going to cut; I had called around to a few companies, it being so late in the day no one was answering. After the 4th company website I called Verde (website said they were already closed for the day) and to my surprise Ray still answered. I spoke and explained the issue at my apartment and how my lady was mad stressed and overwhelmed with it all, add on the fact that I wasn't going to be off shift for another day and half. Ray told me not to worry and that he'd get over ASAP the next day to take a look and get a spray going. He showed up, was extremely professional/respectful and made her feel reassured that he'd be able to take care of the issue. She left the place for a couple hours and when she returned she was amazed at how quickly it was working. The amount of flies went from hundreds to maybe 10 left flying around. We are beyond happy and impressed with the level of service. I would recommend Verde and Ray to anyone having any sort of pest issue. He knows what he's doing and gets the job done. Thank you very much again Ray! read more

Amazing work with a smile, very reasonable price for the outstanding work you'll receive. Highly highly recommend this company 6/5 stars. Phenomenal read more

I'm so happy to have found Verde! After getting several outrageous quotes to deal with rat noises in the attic, Ray dealt with the problem quickly and efficiently without pushing all sorts of unnecessary work. The rats are gone, the attic is clean, entry points sealed and the price was right. He also included an external spray around the house for bugs, which I wasn't expecting, and I haven't seen an ant since! Ray is very good about explaining what he's doing and letting you know when he's arriving and he's always on time, which is great. I would recommend his work to anyone, and what's more he's a really nice guy! read more

I've been having a spider and other pest problem outside my house and have been stung and bitten several times recently causing allergic reactions. I need to have someone come out quick to treat the areas. Ray responded to my request quickly and was able to squeeze me in same day! He was awesome, so friendly and knowledgeable. He de-webbed the whole outside, sprayed, inspected and even left me sticky traps. He did such a great job and explained everything he saw including mosquitoes, and treated for that as well. U will continue to use him for pest control. I highly recommend Verde and ray for pest control needs. read more

Verde owner Ray developed his career working for the #1 ranked Pest Control company in the nation. His local service is done efficient and effective at the highest level standard. Relatively low pricing for high value quality service. Contact Ray and his team today to remove your problem. read more

Fantastic experience with Verde Environmental & Pest Management!! I contacted them late Friday evening and even though it was well after hours, I received a response. Throughout the weekend, again after hours, I was corresponding with them about my pest concerns. This morning, Ray, the owner, came out to meet with me and walk my property. I appreciated that he took time to introduce himself, tell me about his background, experience and how his business operates before the walk-thru. His pricing is straightforward and I love the fact that there are no contracts and it's a family-owned business. Thank you so much Ray for quickly coming out and taking care of our issue. read more

I asked for a quote. Via Yelp. I received a response within moments. We set up a date and Ray showed up exactly when he said he would. He was very professional and polite. Listened to all my issues and Answered all of my questions and then did an amazing job spraying for our ant problems and bugs ( mostly earwigs and pill bug, and getting rid of cobwebs. I am extremely happy with their work and will continue to use them. I highly recommend them! read more

I have monthly service. Verde's is very trustworthy, fair pricing. I also had bees handled by Ray.

As an update to my last review, I have been able to contact Ray and he has come to the house and done an inspection. As a result of finding evidence of rodents, traps have been laid and all entrances to the attic have been sealed. Ray is a straight up guy - no bull or avoidance of answering questions with honest answers. Any needed future pest control problems will go to Verde Environmental for their help. read more

Was impressed with prompt response and next day service for gopher control. Ray and his associate were professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Learned Ray was an ex-Marine and employed vets. Value pricing and DID NOT require a monthly service contract as was our experience with a previous well-known pest management service. Would highly recommend Verde. read more

Ray is great! He is clearly very knowledgeable and is always providing feedback or advice on pest prevention in between our exterminating session. I would highly recommend Verde to anyone. read more

Verde Environmental came out but there was a delay due to him having a family issue so the quote was delayed. We went with a different company. read more

It's nice to not have bugs and spiders anymore. Rodent control has been comforting to know we are not letting them get out of control too. We've learned it works best to keep the service going. It makes a big difference. When we do find pincher bugs and spiders in the house they are usually dead just inside the doorway which is actually very cool to see the evidence of Verdes service is working to stop them at the door when they try to invade. I highly recommend Verde for your pest control service. It works! read more

I love supporting local, family Owned businesses and am even more pleased when they're professional and great at what they do. We couldn't be happier with Ray and his team. He's great at communicating and provides super helpful info/advice when needed. His services are top notch. Thanks Verde! read more

Quick response. Great communication. Ray was extremely knowledgeable and helpful (very polite as well). Pricing was good and we weren't sold products or services we didn't need. Overall experience was fantastic. read more

We have had great experience with Verde Pest Control. The owner, Ray, is very friendly and takes the time to ensure that you get the right service accordingly to your needs.

Since we started working with Verde the spiders are gone! Definitely recommend them. read more

Ray and his team are fabulous! They've treated our home multiple times for ants and added mosquito traps that have been serviced as well.

Thank you Ray! read more
