They were responsive about setting up the contract - courteous, answered all my questions and followed through. We then had the tech (Lawrence) come in to treat and spray inside and out of the house. He too was professional, courteous, friendly, willing to answer questions in detail, etc. Impressed.

I booked with this company last year due to an ant infestation that came out of no where. I absolutely love them. From the rep to the service providers. They are all so respectful and helpful. I am on quarterly plan for them to come out and treat my home. They call me a week prior to them coming out and the provider that day is always tell me what they are doing. Book with them you wouldn’t regret it.

From the first click on thumbtack until getting proposal the team of Better Termite was AMAZING!!! We called for 3 different vendors and Daren was the only one who spent decent amount of time to inspect and provide all details of his findings. Very honest person! And then I got to work with Cindy, she is so prompt and professional that I highly recommend them as honest professionals. Thank you!

Better termite and pest control did a great job with my mouse invasion! After one week. There was hardly a mouse to be seen. They even gave me tips to help discourage my getting into my house. Fantastic!

I was out of the country and my son called and said we had a bad millipede issue in the basement. Better came out analyzed the area and treated inside and out. They reassured me they would take care of the issue and they did. I highly recommend them for your service needs.

Overall great experience! My house had fleas all around and it had gotten way out of hand. My dog was literally always scratching himself. This company was fairly quick and effectively solved my pest problem. I haven't had any issues since! Definitely recommend!

I’ve noticed spider crickets sporadically appearing in my basement this winter. Better Termite responded to my request within an hour and schedule an appointment the next day. They explained their services and pricing thoroughly and had meaningful responses to all my questions/concerns. What I appreciate most is that they never tried to sell my a service I didn’t need. The transparency, professionalism, and working knowledge is top notch.
