We had a terrible time with ants, for multiple summers. They had completely taken over my house. After trying many different solutions, I called preferred pest. They came out, took their time inspecting our home and understanding the issues we were having. They came up with an action plan, approved it with us and a tech came out to start service with us asap. They did a fantastic job, very professional, always on time, and no ants!!!! We couldn’t be happier! Thanks!

We called to schedule an initial inspection on December 28th, and were told an appointment was not available until the following Monday, due to the holidays / vacation (completely understandable). However, when Carrie, the caring customer service representative, heard / felt our concern, she spoke to the Brad (the owner), and he personally came to our home that very afternoon! He patiently listened to our concerns, answered all our questions, and provided us with valuable advice. Additionally, we were not charged for his thorough inspection. We can’t say enough about his candid, professional

I have been using Preferred Pest since 2017. They offer excellent service, they let you know ahead they are coming and if they need to come inside, or not. Have never had a pest issue since using their services, courteous, and professional every time.

This company is amazing…. They are professional, thorough, friendly, responsive! It’s so hard to find companies these days that follow through on their claims. If you are looking for a great pest control company, look no farther. You cannot top this company! I’d give them 10 stars if I could.

It is extremely important to me that anyone entering my home is safe and trustworthy. I would never hesitate to recommend Preferred Pest Control or any of their technicians. We are scheduled for regular service to prevent pests from entering our home but when we had a problem between service calls, they came out immediately and took care of it for us! Even our dog (who barks at everyone) knows Preferred Pest Control is welcome in our home!
