SPRK is not only honest but their techs are highly experienced and knowledgeable. They took care of a hornet nest for us and they did it right so it never came back. After that experience we signed up for the quarterly pest service with them and never had any more issues. I am always someone who asks a lot of questions and I've genuinely learned a lot about insects and keeping my house pest-free from talking to them. In an industry like pest control you have to know your stuff, and they do.

This is a bit long BUT if you really want a pest control service that's been evaluated over years -…read moreREAD IT! :-) This review is wayyyy overdue. I've had this service since it opened. I primarily started with them because a veteran owns it, then kept them because of the 5 star services they have been providing me for years. My rental home had mice way back in the day, I was living there at the time and my wife was not having it and needed them gone FAST. Scratching in the walls and so on. The home is a 1959 and from what they said in VA this is expected. We have a fire pit and we kept a cord of wood close to the house and that's where they were having the time of their life - until winter that is, then they came in for warmth and food. I called SPRK and the company owner came and evaluated the property himself (not a flash in and out, he was very thorough). He easily located the places that they could enter the home and took care of them. He placed bait stations all around the outside of the home and several inside in key areas. Within 2 - 4 weeks everything was silent. No scratching, nothing in the basement running around, nadda. Happy family! Cut to years later, now it's a rental and we had some not-so-clean folks renting the house and they brought in among other things, you guess it - friggin' roaches. We lived there 9 years and NEVER had a bug besides a spider or an ant here and there. The worst part is they never said anything and we walked into this festering issue when the house was empty. I 911 called SPRK that day and the next day they came out beat the sh*t out of the problem with some great spray treatments and bait stations, hence they eradicated the problem. Since the house is a single family home AND not connected to anyone else the problem was taken care of swiftly. Had it been a row house or town home that could have posed more issues with controlling them. Now I maintain the inside monthly service and the quarterly outside rodent prevention service and everything Is great now (AGAIN). Bottom line is, if you want a PERSONAL pest service that get's the job done, hire them. If you call or email them you will get a person quite promptly. HOWEVER, If you want some huge national franchise pest company that has new people every week and could care less when or if the pest issue is corrected then these folks are not for you. Thanks SPRK!!!

I don't often write reviews so when I do, it means I was thoroughly impressed…read more We found and hired Kevin during our home buying process. He found the termites and we asked the sellers to consider using him to treat for them. They agreed and were just as pleased with him as we were. He was responsive, professional, courteous, on time, and did an outstanding job for us. To be specific, he catered to our schedule, completed the job, gave follow up emails with details, and shared how to be proactive in the future to protect our home. After we completed the termite (and other wood destroying insect) inspection/treatment, we signed up with Kevin for his annual (quarterly scheduled and unlimited call in request visits) pest control service. We've been here three months now and he has been at our "beck and call" ever since. Any time we have seen anything, he has shown up quickly and handled. He always wears his mask without being asked (which is a HUGE deal to us especially as so many people have stopped wearing them during the pandemic or scoffed at us for asking), he ensures he takes off his shoes or wears booties in the house to protect our rugs (again without being asked), and HE proactively emailed for our quarterly service. Additionally, he went above and beyond for our rodent control needs, as we did not want to use bait which slowly and painfully kills critters and can cause secondary kill on predators such as owls who may unknowingly eat poisoned rodents. We wanted to use quick kill snap traps when we heard what we believed was a mouse, and he came and set the traps, checked them frequently and we were able to catch the one mouse that was causing the sounds we heard. We also were having mole trouble in our yard, and didn't want to use snap traps that might be found by our little dog nor slow-kill bait, so he sourced a pet and environmentally safe repellant that we happily paid for (he only charged us cost) - and it works! On top of THAT, we could not find a decent spreader for the mole bait, so he indefinitely loaned us his. We also had trouble with an ant infestation that was disturbed when a plumber replaced our sink strainer/basket and we could not get them under control. He was willing to do fogging, etc. after the bait kept killing but was a little slower than he would have liked because of how large the ant infestation inside the walls must have been when disturbed. He was relentless and nothing but a perfect gentleman, without EVER showing signs of frustration at the many times he had to come out here. I mean, really, how many service industry people can you say all of this about? I can not speak highly enough about Kevin, his personality AND his business. I would not hesitate for one second to recommend him to anyone seeking pest control services, small or large.

However, immediately, I was impressed with Summit's fast, clear communications and ability to quickly conduct a survey. This gave me assurance that there was a plan to not only eliminate the squirrels but also to prevent more from returning. Communications throughout the whole process was always proactive, clear, and helpful! Their communications and customer service are a model for companies across industries. Summit stuck with us through a lengthy process (which was no fault of their own). After we caught a squirrel, we heard more noises. Jason worked with us with friendly persistence until the problem was solved by making several trips to isolate where the squirrel was. While I hope, we never have another wildlife problem, I would contact Summit again without hesitation.

DO NOT trust this company for bird exclusion services…read more We paid $350 after their technician showed us video of birds actively flying in and out of our house. Another crew later came out, claimed there were "no birds, just twigs," sanitized the area, installed a metal cover, and left. Now there are flies surrounding the covering, birds trying to get back inside, and we can still hear chirping and movement in the wall/vent area. Instead of fixing the issue, it seems they trapped live birds inside our home while creating an even bigger sanitation problem. Terrible communication, conflicting explanations, and a complete waste of money. Absolutely unacceptable.
