"They have been very nice. It didn't cost me anything. I expected that they have a charge for coming and checking everything. He came over and looked at everything and he gave me a price. I felt that the whole place was full of termites. I have a lot of trees in my yard and he found nothing. He did the garage and it was separate. He looked at the crawlspace in my basement. He looked everywhere and did not find anything. That was great. He said if I want to do treatment, he gave me a price for that for the next 5 years. I had none but if I want to have him come and treat it. I was by myself. He answered all my questions fully and didn't try to pressure me into anything. They are very good in easing my worries and I had the option to pick to have it treated. It was all at one shop. He didn't have to come back, didn't have to ponder, didn't have to do anything. He eased my fear of termites in this house versus 6:36-38. It was very good. I have a part of a crawlspace basement. Part of it is full and part of it is crawl. He crawled up and even looked at the back of the house. His responsiveness was very good. He said he would be here on time and he was here on time. He was very knowledgeable. I kept his card. I'm here all my life so I know there are termites but I've never had any so I opted not to but I may still go back and do it. I would call him."

"great as usual. Both times he came out he made all of us so comfortable

"Phenomenal! Hands down the best pest control company in Des Moines! We live in a house built in the 1920's and have original windows, so my expectations on pest control are fairly low, due to the age of the house and the fact that the windows aren't sealed well. With our previous pest company, I came to expect a few bugs slipping through the cracks because of the house. What Gene and Bobcat did was go above and beyond what any other pest company has done. Not only do they barricade the inside of the house, but he also cleaned off the side of the house where they might have been feeding opportunities for bugs. He also has done such a great job that I have not seen a bug the entire time we have been with them. He spends the time to actually look for opportunities for bugs to enter your home and immediately closes those windows. When I noticed that we had odorous ants, Gene came right out, applied a solution and told us what to expect. In a matter of a day, the entire problem was solved and we haven't seen another ant! While the price may be a bit higher than other cheap, corporate pest companies, you get the owner of the company coming to your house, who treats your house like he would his own and who has an obvious, vested interest in doing a great job for you. I have never, ever heard of anyone having a complaint with Gene or his services. On top of all that, you won't stop laughing when he is there...just a fun guy to have around and that makes working with them so much better! There is nothing worse than a cranky, unresponsive employee who doesn't care about the work he does and you will never get that with Bobcat. Gene and his crew make it so easy to love doing business with them. Never in my wildest dreams would I actually look forward to having the pest control company out to the house and that says a lot about Gene and the company he runs."

"So far they've come in for an inspection. I notice less mice. The guy who came for the inspection spent 2 1/2 hours and was very thorough."

"We have only had them out one time and getting ready to call them out again between appts. So far, they seem to be okay."
