Good service from Cassius today. Friendly. Explained what he was going to do. After he was done, made suggestions on how we could further protect the house from attack. Explained pet protocol for our dog. Very informative. Thanks!
Abby Geison
I've been a Fox Pest customer for 2 years now, and I'm so pleased with the service and my tech Chris Clark. I have pesky ants that come out every spring, and this has been the quickest they've been under control thanks to Chris and his quick follow up. He explained his treatment plan (and made sure it was safe for my pets) and scheduled a return appointment to check on the outcome. Thanks Chris!
