Termites are small colonizing insects that feed on mostly cellulose, which could be plant fibers at any stage of decay. Termites themselves are usually hidden, so seeing them is rare. Subterranean termites are usually a white/yellowish color and are similar in size to ants. You are more likely to find evidence of termite activity than to see them.

My family has been a part of this business for many years. The unfortunate thing is they schedule themselves without you confirming the date. Why not just schedule on our time? Also I'm super disappointed. We paid in advance for the year to not have to worry. This last service we had to reschedule. We pay for the every 2 months and since we rescheduled they are now coming after 3 months. So technically stealing our money with no mention of the small reimbursement and yes every penny counts. Nearly 4 weeks later for a reschedule is ridiculous. I won't be going with this company again.

I have had Essential Pest for over five years..they are prompt,professional and uniformly efficient.Recently a neighbors dog died abruptly from what could have been rat poison. I called Essential to see if my bait box could have been the cause. within two hours a tech was here to check out my concerns and explain how this was not possible..and reassure me ..They went out of their way to reassure me and my neighbor . I recommend them enthusiastically..they care! Thanks essential‼️

My neighbor referred me to Essential Pest Control because they spray her yard for weeds and she said they did a great job! I called them to set up an appointment and was told the scheduler was on lunch and she would call me back when she returned. I left all my contact information and waited but never received a call. I waited about 3 days and called back and was told again that the scheduler was on lunch but I would get a return phone call. Again, I waited but never received a call. I decided to call once more to set up a consultation because my neighbor raves about them. I left a message and

Positive: Responsiveness
I’ve had the best customer service and response time from Arturo, the technician. He’s made sure any issues which arise are handled professionally and in a timely matter. Since signing up for the monthly pest service our house has had significantly less issues with critters.

I have worked with this company for over 2 years now. We purchased a house in Menlo Park area and it had some areas with termites. They came and did the treatment and they were gone. We have had a gnat/ plant bug problem and they came and inspected. With their suggestions for treatment, they were gone in less than 3 weeks. Recently, we have had a mosquito treatment done on our property due to the excessive amounts of mosquitos we had, and now they are gone. Thank you to Jeremiah, Abel, and James, who have all helped with this amazing experience. Just good people!!!

RJ did a wonderful job. He was extremely thorough in spraying my yard for weeds. He was also very pleasant. I have been using essential for a few years and I highly recommend them. They are very nice and they are responsive to their customers' needs.

I have been a customer of Essential Pest Control for the past 4 to 5 years and they do a great job. The techs have all been well–trained and professional as well as punctual. When shopping for a new pest control company I found their rates were among the best for regular maintenance service and I feel that my rate now is still a great deal for their service after 5 years. I would recommend to anyone seeking pest control service.

Huge shout out to Jerry! We called them thinking we had a couple nests in our dead palm trees, the technician came and out turns out we had a COUPLE HUNDRED NESTS! Crazy!!! Jerry and his other helper came out when it was 106 degrees outside and trimmed the palm trees and sprayed all the wasps and made me feel very happy about getting it all done in an efficient and respectful manner. I also appreciated that if for any reason I saw more wasps or anything they would come back out and spray again. I really appreciate their thoroughness!
Happy happy client!

My husband and I purchased a house and during the termite inspection they found cockroaches. Essential said they could use a gas product on the house to "kill up to 99%" of the pests followed by three months of follow up treatments "to make sure they were gone." The technician promised us we wouldn't see any bugs after four weeks. We decided to buy the house an pay for the services based on the company's assurances. They have NEVER once called to set up appointments. I have had to call weekly to find out when they scheduled them and then juggle my schedule to be available

I had just recently moved into a new place and within a couple days of being there, realized there was a pest problem. I wasn't able to unpack let alone unload any of my belongings until my Landlord corrected the issue. They reached out to Essential Pest Control and I couldn't be happier. I admit that I was stressed and frustrated with the whole ordeal. I called numerous times to the receptionist at Essential Pest Control with probably a million and one questions. I'm sure I was annoying. However, they were understanding and reassured me every time that I was in good hands. The tech

It's always a balance of factors when picking a company:
1- Cost/Value
2- Flexibility/Availability

You come to expect compromises when focusing on one thing over another, for example, if you buy the cheapest service then you're almost guaranteed some measure of "nickel and dime-ing" along the way.

This is honestly the worst company I have had the displeasure of dealing with. We called due to an out of control rat infestation in the ceiling of our rental. The first technician came out and placed a single trap on the outside of the home without even looking up in the crawl space. From then until now, 8 MONTHS LATER, we have had a nonstop series of late cancellations from the technician, if he even bothers to show up for our appointments. The technician is nice enough, but there have been several instances where he is reporting false information about the problem to the homeowner. It is 8 months

Had a bee invasion while both my wife and I were out of town. There were two hives on our patio ceiling, about 16' up. We called Essential, they came out and removed them before we arrived home. This was not an easy removal due to the height - need a serious ladder to get up there.
They billed us a few days later, reasonable rates. I'd definitely recommend them.
