We just had our visit from Fox Pest Control. Adam was very professional and courteous. He went and sprayed all the baseboards and sprayed all outside. He even took down a wasp nest that was starting that we had no idea about. He gave us a lot of information about our ant problem and about the other bugs that we see sometimes too. Overall very good first experience with this company.
