Recon Pest Control is definitely a go to company!! Their process from start to finish is simple and easy. Their prices are really good and fair.
Everyone involved from the first phone call to the technician coming over were very professional and friendly. I had to reschedule my original appointment on the day of and it was a seamless process to complete.
I'm glad that I chose this company to get rid of my ant and spider problem.

This was our first time using Recon Pest Control and they were very professional. The scheduling was easy and very professional. Our technician was on time and even gave us a heads when he was heading our way. Ryan was actually more knowledgeable than our previous pest service. We will be staying with Recon.

Ryan, Recon’s specialist was friendly and arrived on time. He worked inside and out. He came to take care of spiders and silverfish. While here I mentioned an issue with chipmunks and he immediately went to his truck to get a trap. I was amazed how prepared he was for this. In the past we’d talked to other pest control companies re the chipmunk problem and we were told to go to Home Depot or Lowe’s to see what they suggest. I’m very happy with Recon.

First time home buyer. Just moved in about a month ago. I first contacted recon on Yelp and got a very fast reply on a Saturday. They came by early on Monday. Sprayed my entire house. Was extremely professional and kind. I contacted them again 4 weeks later for another issue we had found in our house. Alex called right away and set up a time the next day. He came early and took care of everything that was needed. He was incredibly kind and professional. All while maintains social distancing. I couldn’t have asked for better! Thank you Alex and Curtis! You guys are absolutely wonderful!

Horrible - don’t waste your time. Here was my experience in a nutshell:
-Signed up online for an appointment
-Someone called to let me know they were actually not open the day I selected. I rescheduled for an afternoon slot a few days later (was clear that we would not be home in the morning that day)
-The exterminator showed up 5 hours early the day of appointment because someone else in the area cancelled . We were not home, as we had stated
-The exterminator never confirmed he would not be coming back for our original appointment time until I reached out at the end of the time slot

Lack of communication. Flimsy paper traps as “rodent treatment” did nothing. Waste of $150. Couldn’t get a refund. My $5 target glue traps caught three rats. Highly disappointed with the communication. To be cheated especially in a pandemic sucks. I do not recommend. Use your money elsewhere. It was my first time getting a service. On their website it says “50% off initial service”. We did not get that discount. I called and the receptionist said it wasn’t supposed to be on the website. How misleading right? The technician was just doing his job so I don’t blame him. I blame the manager

Decided to go with this company after reading the reviews to extract mice. They ended up just placing bite traps and we continued seeing mice and they came out several times just moving the traps around. They weren't thorough in their inspection and didn't even check all the traps the services also stated they would seal any small entry points which they told me fill myself. I ended up catching more mice by using glue traps on my own and switched to a different company.

Recon Pest Control is the company you want to call if you have a pest issue. They return calls right away and can schedule appointments quickly. We had Tony at our house recently and he was very professional and knowledgeable. There are a lot of questionable contractors out there... Recon Pest Control is one of the good guys!

Not only are they quick to get back to you about providing estimates and/or services, they are very knowledgeable. I messaged them thru Yelp for an estimate and was able to speak to someone within a few hours. They sent someone out the very same day to check things out. I agreed to the service on the spot and they got to work. They say to give it a few weeks to ensure treatment works but honestly, I saw results that same afternoon! We had a huge ant problem inside & outside the house. I can honestly say I have yet to see one darn ant since they did the treatment two days ago!!! You don&apos

I have a service contract with Recon and am quite pleased. I had another treatment done this morning and it's time I leave a well-deserved review. Mike was excellent at explaining exactly what he was doing this morning and why. He explained the solution he was using and how it works to get rid of bug invaders in my house. I'm impressed by Recon and it's truly because of interactions with employees like Mike. Awesome service overall.

Perhaps it's a bit odd to write a review for a pest control company, but I've now had several months of experience with Recon and I must say I continue to be impressed. We moved into our new-to-us home in Reston in February, and shortly thereafter were invaded by ants in the kitchen and spiders in the basement. Gross! I was NOT pleased. After a bit of research, phone calls, and discussions with my spouse, we decided to work with Recon to get on a quarterly bug annihilation plan. Every interaction we've had, from the initial quote process to the technician or the random email questions

Kevin was so nice, and I let him take care of the spraying of the lower floor, which is important to me because I was bitten last Dec. by a brown recluse spider. He checked for webs and signs of spiders everywhere and concentrated on my fireplace woodpile...If you live close to vegetation or you see one of these spiders, you need to get them sprayed. Their bites are the worst.

These guys are the real deal. It is so nice to deal with salesman that don't treat me like an idiot. Recon has always been upfront with me. They only treat the problem that is there, not just looking to take advantage.
Best pest control guys around.
Update: I've dealt personally with the owner, Scott. He is easy to work with and always answers my calls. Recon does what it takes to get the problem solved. A+ outfit.

First time they came the guys looked around and I wasn't sure if he did anything. I asked if he sprayed upstairs and he said "you want me to?" And again in my basement. I wasn't satisfied however I did give them another chance since I see more ants than before.
They came back 3 weeks or so later and this time I wasn't home but my dad had to walk around and ask them to do their job. My dad asked questions and the guy couldn't answers. My dad told me how he felt about it and I wasn't the only one experience it. I will give it another try since I'm hoping
