Get matched with top bug and insect pest control pros in Woodacre, CA

"I was in desperate need of some help and answers to my pest problems. This was the first & only Pro that contacted me. While I didn't technically hire them, they were very professional and responded quickly to my project request. The project was quoted at $200, but I was only charged $50 for a down payment and inspection. While I may still be baffled at how I got a small invasion of pesky flies, the Pro was excellent at communicating with me and still offered their services in my time of need."

"Best pest control company that Iâ ve used. He is very response, completes the work quickly and absolutely stands behind his work. If I see a bug and call he comes right away and takes care of the problem. I would definitely recommend this person."

"It is still in progress, but so far things are going well. Very good communication and good customer service."

"It was a preemptive treatment because one of the owners came down and did like a little inspection of my whole place. So he recommended a simple preemptive treatment because there were issues of termites; subterranean termites and boring beetles. The termite problem had actually come up to my fire access door so they applied the treatment downstairs and he had to remove mt fire access door and frame. While they were doing that, they discovered that the problem had actually spread to some parts of the exterior wall so they also helped me with that. They replaced some of the wooden beams in my wall and the flooring also. I'm glad that they found the problem and we fixed it. I liked what he did for me and he did a great job. Based on what I heard from neighbors and friends, their quote was very reasonable. They are not cheap but they are not expensive."

"The first guy said he would spray the garage but he didn't.  The second guy was thorough."

"This company uses the Orange Oil* and microwaves to treat for termites; and boric acid (Timborand reg;) on exposed wood to prevent future infestations. They use video cameras to look in the walls to determine which studs are affected.
Miguel was prompt on arrival, courteous and did a more thorough examination of the rafters than the previous termite inspector from another company. But it was clear that he was not nearly as experienced as another inspector from a third company that subsequently inspected our home.
He did not look in the attic nor check the crawl space under the floor. He relied on the previous inspection of another company that inspected the crawl space and found no termites. He only speculated as to how the termites were getting into the home, and did not verify the entry point.
We were quoted $720 to treat the affected studs, and $1260 to treat the affected studs and apply Timborand reg; to exposed wood for termites. (These prices include their 10% internet discount) The whole house treatment includes a 3 year warranty with yearly inspections. There is an option for an extended warranty at a cost of $200/year. The extended warranty is available only if the original warranty has not expired.
We considered this company, but subsequently learned from our county Agricultural Commissioner's Office that they see more repeat treatments when orange oil or microwave treatment is used compared to chemical treatment (fipronil aka. Thermadorand reg;, or fumigation). We are concerned this may indicate that the microwave and orange oil treatment are not as effective in eradicating termites despite a controlled study conducted by the University of California [Vernard R. Lewis et al, Journal of Economic Entomology 89(4): 922 - 934 (1996)) that suggests the method holds promise. The county Agricultural Commissioner's Office confirmed that boric acid treatment on exposed wood works well for prevention of termites and fungus.

*Addendum: At the end of the inspection we received a hand written estimate from Miguel based on the work and process we verbally discussed and he explained. We did not receive a written estimate until after this review was written. There is a discrepancy in what we believe we were told (that they use Orange Oil) and what the formal written estimate/contract states -that they use fipronil [and not Orange Oil]. We also noted discrepancies in what were told by the inspectors versus the terms of the written estimate/contract with other companies so this is not unique to this company. We would recommend reviewing the formal estimate/contract with any company before committing to any work.

"I have nothing but praise for those in the office of Gring Pest Control Service. The person I spoke to on several occasions was friendly, professional, experienced, and helpful. I cannot say the same for the person who came to the house. I won't speculate as to the cause, but his behavior was, to put it mildly, bizarre. I don't want to criticize those who may suffer with personality or emotional problems, but will simply not have this person on our property again. It's a pity because I believe Gring Pest Control Service is a very reputable company, and this employee darkens what would have been a glowing review.

"Excellent Job!!! They work on my furnace really professional and clean."

"He arrived on time and was patient with us getting our belonging together to leave the hours for a period of time. The cost was exactly what I was quoted and best of all, we haven't had any more flea bites since he did the treatment. dthestumy daughter who"

"They have done very little for us in the past year. We have had no recent problems."
