I hate flies. When I noticed more than a couple in the house, I wasted no time in calling Rick at Verikill. Not only did he answer my call promptly, he was able to treat my home that very day! Rick patiently answered all of my questions and concerns and demonstrated a wealth of knowledge in his field. I wholeheartedly recommend his company to handle any pest problems that you encounter! read more

You learn something about a person when things don't go exactly as planned. And they never do. I'd used Verikill (Rick Viall, Owner) in the past to get rid of some ants, and I was very satisfied. So I contacted Rick about tenting my house for termites because localized treatments with another company hadn't worked. He was a stand-up guy from start to finish. When problems developed with the first fumigator (i.e., at the last minute, they wanted me to waive the tile insurance I'd purchased in advance before commencing work), Rick stepped in, found a sub-contractor familiar with the type of roof tiles I have and willing to accept tile insurance. As always happens, they broke a number of tiles but will soon be back to fix them. Rick remained accessible every step of the way and even lost sleep over the situation. I can't thank him or recommend him highly enough. read more

We have been very satisfied with prices & services of Verikill. The owner Rick has been very trustworthy, helpful & punctual.

Richard keeps any bugs at bay with his regular services. I also love that we can pay online. Thank Richard!

This company is awesome!! I was mortified when I found rat droppings in my food pantry around 8:00 am one morning, and Rick was there by 2:00 pm that afternoon setting traps !!!! That's got to be a record . He was very professional, reasonably priced, and super knowledgeable. I have used the big companies in the past and it never seemed like they did much to help with pest and rodent control. I already feel safe like the rats are gone !!! read more

Rick is awesome! As a Realtor I often need things done ASAP and reliably. Rick responded immediately and was out at the listing the very next day. And on another job he was VERY empathetic to the tenant who had a lot of special needs. I highly recommend him to get it done!

Rick is the man! I've been battling roaches and finally gave up and turned to the professionals. I found Verikill after reading their reviews and have not been disappointed. Great service and great guy! read more

How is it that I want more pests so I can hire Rick. He is a great provider of pest control. He is efficient and dedicated to providing first class service. He answered his phone and committed to delivering service THAT DAY! The company I originally called said they couldn't be out for 15 days. I am thrilled to know Rick. He is excellent and recommend you call him too! read more

Rick At Verikill did a great job for my home treatment. We have pets and I was concerned about their safety and he reassured me it would be safe for them and not for the ants I was trying to get rid of! He was here on the day I called him. read more

5 stars will use again and recommend to my friends. I had an issue with ants. Richard was able to go out and spray and coordinated with the tenants. Made my life very easy! Great prices. Honest. Good work. Could not ask for more. read more

We needed an exterminator for an ant problem that we noticed within the past week. We had done our best to use home remedies without success and we needed an exterminator sooner than later. It's a minor issue but still a nuisance. We had contacted Verikill and spoke to Richard who answered immediately. He was able to fit us in the next day for treatment. Nick came over and treated the home. He listened to our concerns. He was very thorough, friendly, professional and efficient. We also appreciate the 30 day guarantee post treatment. Thank you guys. Highly recommend! read more

The service level alone is assuring. Very fast response to my inquiry. Swiftly scheduled an appointment at my earliest convenience (and when most companies, especially nationwide companies, would charge an emergency fee.) Diagnosed my problem within 5 minutes of inspection. Did not rush the service call at all. Answered all my questions. Polite. Nice. Friendly. Smart. Confident. Trustworthy seeming. Really worked with me on meeting my scheduling. I hope to never have to use him again but if I do , or any friends are in need -- this is the only call I'll make. read more

I had a horrible ant problem in my house this summer. I tried every product from Home Depot and Lowe's and none of them worked. Rick came out right away and we haven't seen an ant in the past 10 days. It has made our lives so much better. Highly recommend Verikill. read more

I am very happy I chose Verikill to help with a rodent problem at my home. Rick is a great guy and very knowledgeable. My landlord kept sending a guy he uses for rodent and pest issues and the rodent problem actually escalated. I contacted Verikill and the problem got eliminated and went very smoothly. It was a night and day difference between the two. If I ever have any future issues I will absolutely be a repeat customer. read more

We were new renters in the PB area and the property had been vacant for 6-8 months. We needed a pest control service and found Verikill online with positive reviews. I contact Richard and we setup a date and time for the initial consultation and first treatment. The time that Richard takes to understand your concerns is refreshing as he cares and listens to what you are saying. He is not trying to rush through to get to the next job. We have been very pleased with Verikill's services to date and are on a regular maintenance schedule with them. Scheduling with Verikill is quite easy and they are able to work with your busy schedule. I would definitely recommend Verikill to others that are looking for a quality pest control service. Thank You Richard and Verikill read more

Really great company and helped me out on a weekend. I would highly recommend them. The owner is very knowledgeable and gave me advice that others did not. He really wants to help solve the problem not just mask it like others I have experienced. read more

Its been4 days since Verikill came out to solve my very bad ant problem. He said it would take a few days for the ants to be gone, and it took about 1 day and now my house is ANT FREE. I seriously doubted that this would work - I had had Corky's and Lloyds out before, and it never really did much, but this WORKED. Very pleased with the cost, the service and the results. VERY. read more

Ricks son addressed our ant problem which was driving us nuts. Haven't seen an ant since and we were basically dreading them coming back every year. Courteous, professional, through....this is a quality service company. read more

I am very pleased with Verikill's performance. I called and the owner, Richard Vail, called me back the same day. He educated me on the rodent issue I was having and came out to investigate. He knows his stuff and he shared some useful information on how to control the rodent problem. The process he uses is not dangerous for cats or dogs so I was happy with that. Our rodent issues has been resolved in our garage and I have taken the steps he suggested to maintain a rodent free area. read more

I am so happy to endorse Rick, If I could give him 10 stars, I would! Rats were invading my car. We tried to get rid of them for two weeks, setting many rat traps, many glue traps and setting different scents in the car offencive to rats. Nothing was working! We called several pest control places that would not remove rats. We even called vector control who could not get the rat. We finally called Rick and he was awesome! He was very knowledgeable, had a great personality and was efficient. He only set two traps and when we checked the car the next morning...success! Rat was gone! It had found one of the traps. We re so happy we called Rick! read more

Rick came and the rats left!! Great, prompt and efficient. No evidence of rats since Rick began the service. I highly recommend Verikill and Rick. read more

I called Verikill after having too many ants and spiders this summer. I waited a week before posting just to be sure I was happy, and I am completely happy. I know it costs more to have a company come take care of it, but I guess those ants and spiders took one look at them and ran to the neighbors! I watched, they were thorough. Nick was my technician. read more

I am a property manager and I have used Richard at Verikill for years. Simply the best pest control service in San Diego. Always available, always professional and always gets the job done for the best price. You will not be sorry if you choose to call Richard for your pest control needs. read more

Rick was up front with a realistic timeline, and a reasonable rate to rid our house of pests. Very accommodating of time, showed a thorough knowledge of his business. I would hire him in the future read more

Yes had the nice pleasure of meeting Rick, its rare that the owner comes out to your residence and not only the same day but within a hour. Of course he may be busy to always do that, but his expertise in all facets of the industry was outstanding and he gave me professional ideas regarding bug treatment. Looking forward to dealing with him again soon, as most in this industry are all talk,but not Rick Love the name too: Verikill.. read more

Make one call. Call Verikill. My story, 2 PM on Saturday afternoon, a family member calls to say they have trapped a raccoon and they are out of town and need me to take care of the raccoon. I found Rick (Verikill) on Yelp and explained my situation. Rick said he would be on-site in about an hour. 35 minutes later, Rick showed up, picked-up the raccoon and released the animal back into the wild. I found Rick's prices to be fair, he could have charged more and I would have paid more. Showing up on a Saturday afternoon 35 minutes after calling is great service. I would recommend without hesitation. read more

I called Rick at Verikill last year about a pervasive silverfish problem. We had been in the house a few months, and nothing we were doing was having any effect on them. These gross little bugs were into everything! One call, literally. The very next day he personally came out, took the time to talk with my husband, look at all the areas that were problem areas, treat the house.... and voila! It's been about 9 months and I haven't seen any silverfish at all. We have a cat, and a beekeeper next door, so it was tricky - couldn't just nuke the place, but he got 'er done! I highly recommend him! read more

I called Rick at Verikill to come out and take care of some unexpected company that I wanted to get rid of ASAP. He was able to rearrange his schedule to accommodate me the very next day before I left town. Rick took care of the problem and was in and out in 30 minutes. His prices are very reasonable and I highly recommend him if you need to quickly get rid of any unwanted guests. read more

Rick is awesome. He definitely lives his job and has many years of experience that pays off. He got rid of the roof rats living under my house and the Argentinian ants that would periodically invade my kitchen (did you know that these non-native invaders have up to 300 queens so traditional ant baits are ineffective because they only kill a few of the queens?). Go with Rick and you won't regret it. read more

Our ex-tenants left our condo with roach problems. Rick came & sprayed. Two weeks later new tenant moved in & found more roaches. He came back right away to re-spray the condo with no charge. NO MORE ROACHES. Thank you, Rick. read more

Rick is the definition of a stand up guy! I have been having rodent issues in my home for the past 6 months and have had another exterminator handling the issue. I have become very frustrated that the problem has not been solved so I decided to reach out to other exterminators for a second opinion. Rick was the 1st to respond to my plea for help. When I spoke with Rick, he was very upfront and honest. He told me that I didn't need a new exterminator I just needed to try a different technique for getting rid of the problem. He even said I could solve this issue on my own at a much lower cost. He told me exactly what to buy and where to get it...REMEMBER, this is a business owner giving away business because of his good character and because he know I have been throwing money at this problem for the last 6 months. I couldn't thank Rick enough and the least I could do is take the time to write him this review. If I ever need exterminator help in the future I will most certainly be calling Rick. I encourage anyone looking to get rid of some pesky pets to make Rick your go to exterminator. As we all know, honesty is a trait that can be very hard to come by these days especially when there is no monetary gain in play. With that said, Rick stepped up to the plate and really blew me away with his generosity. Thanks again for all your help Rick! read more

Rick is awesome, i just moved into what i thought was a nice place, came home and turned on the light to find hundreds of tiny roaches. he managed to get me in asap at a super late notice before i left town for a week. Now i dont have to have a panic attack because bugs on this level creep me out. Hes a super nice guy too!! read more

We had a problem with ants for years. Called Verikill Rick came out the next day was here on time.. A month and half later still no ants..Great price, great job! Will recommend to all my friends.. read more

Got to us immediately, very friendly, and the wasps are gone! What more could you want?

Very nice and helpful guy. You can definitely count on him to deal with pest problems

When the pest control company showed up to spray my house all seemed well; until he asked me for my number and when he could possibly take me out. There were clearly pictures of my family hanging on my walls and the tables in my entry way. Not to mention I was clearly wearing my wedding ring. When I called to complain the lady literally laughed and said good luck getting anything done about this because he is the owner's son. I have found out that this is not the first time it has happened. Be aware and watch out. read more

We called Rick after discovering that we had bedbugs in our place. He did an amazing job getting rid of them at a reasonable price. Definitely a service I will use when in need in the future! read more
