I had a gopher tearing up my front lawn so I called Presto because I’ve used them before for other services and was very pleased. Jim came out immediately and took care of the issue quickly and completely. He and his staff are friendly and knowledgeable and I couldn’t beat the price! Would definitely call Presto again. They are the best!

Knowledgeable, gave me advice over the phone without having to come check it out, and it worked to get the bees to stop coming.

I had a wonderful experience with Presto Pest Control from their initial customer service with David to Reuben providing the professional steam cleaning of my auto which required sanitation on signs of rodent nesting in my engine. Reuben was a delight to work with & went the extra mile to assure me my auto was safe. Looks like a new engine!Jim Rossi, Pres. was available for questions & took an interest in my service needs & his men. Thank you all for a great job!

Jim and his team are reliable, consistent and provide high-level service. Most importantly (with our stubborn rodent problem), Jim honors his commitments and will not let you down. Highly recommended!

There was an animal living in our attic, but not sure which animal. Presto Pest Control came in and set traps around my house and was able to catch a young possum. They have a great service and was able to remove the animal and move it somewhere safe. Thank you Presto Pest Control.

We had a severe ant infestation that made life miserable for us and our cat. When our leasing office couldn't help, we found Presto Pest Control online, and they saved the day even on New Year's Eve! David was incredibly friendly and reassuring, and Mario showed up right on time to treat our unit. Within days, the ants were completely gone. We're so impressed with their professionalism, reliability, and results. Highly recommend Presto for top-notch service!

My neighbor called Presto as she noticed evidence of mice at her house. We are in Townhomes and share a wall. I wanted to make sure that my house was checked as well. The service man, Mario was great to work with. He was prompt, friendly and knowledgeable. Thank you Mario !

What a wonderful experience. David was extremely prompt, helpful, knowledgeable, and most importantly - honest. He saved me money and time by guiding me in the right direction. The entire process from start to finish was extremely pleasant. I would definitely recommend Presto to anyone.

Cannot recommend Presto enough, especially for businesses. I work for a restaurant and we faced worst-case scenario: shut down by health department on a Friday, meaning we would miss the entire weekend of business (not to mention advertise our failed health inspection to the public all weekend) if we did not treat and reopen ASAP. Presto’s owner Jim is clearly experienced in these emergency situations. He walked us through the entire process to make sure we would meet the health department’s requirements. He went to bat with us to make sure the insurance paperwork was in order for mall management to approve the emergency work permit same-day. He also educated us on keeping our own pest defenses up so that pests from our neighbors don’t congregate in our space. We successfully passed an inspection Saturday morning. Thank you Presto!

I used Presto at my rental house because I suspected termite activity. Jim was very professional and responded right away. He found evidence of an infestation and set up fumigation within a couple days. The whole process was seamless and much less expensive than other pest control companies. I had several bids. Other companies recommended services that were not needed as well. I would definitely use Presto again and recommend them to others.

Presto installed netting above my large porch to prevent birds from building nests. In the past, the nests have been a health hazard, so this year I called Presto to see if they could help. Jim sent someone over same day, I don't recall the person's name but he was super nice and helpful. Very quickly I got a quote to install netting that was very reasonable in comparison to other places I had called. Jim ordered the material right away, communicating that it might take days to get the material. As soon as the product came in, Jim scheduled the job. Mario came by as scheduled and installed the netting and it looks great. I was afraid it wouldn't look good, but Mario installed it very neatly and it isn't very noticable. Overall, Jim kept me in the loop at every step, and was very responsive. Both people that stopped by were extremely courteous and helpful. I would definitely hire Presto again.

We've used Presto several times recently for several different pest issues: rats and bedbugs. Brian and Jim are amazing in their quick response time, thorough work and professional attitude! Price was very fair and they did a great job. We'll absolutely call again!

I feel very lucky to have found Presto. From start to finish, they were professional, knowledgeable and clearly very experienced. The service was timely and super clean in execution. They were also super affordable. Highly recommend these guys for all fumigation services.

I've been using Presto Pest Control for over two years. On our ranch they have been very professional and helpful in dealing with our spider, mice and squirrel population. I am very pleased with their service and would highly recommend them if you want the job done well. Thank you Jim and Brian for continuing to keep our home safe. Jeff

I'd give 0 star if I can. I'm told there is upfront inspection fee, and yet the moment he saw it is townhouse structure (which I already *told him before he came to visit*), he made zero inspection efforts, like into the attic or take clear picture of external potential holes/gaps. He basically looked around the outside for 5min and did nothing due diligence, and asking for inspection fee anyway. To be fair, I had other inspectors come by my property, did much thorough efforts to have inspection report, discussing possible rodent in&out places, etc. This is definitely the worse I've had. Again, no problem with inspection fee upfront, just the way he did superficial "inspection" is red flag/low work ethnics.

Provider response

Thank you Hongyan for sharing your experience as everyone has a different experience.  As I have previously explained to you that all of our calls are recorded for training and quality assurance purposes.  If you would like I can upload the calls for full transparency for all to hear if you agree.  On the initial call to Presto Pest Control, Inc. you were informed and agreed to the $100 fee to come out and perform a limited Rodent inspection which is reimbursable if you choose to hire us.  I contacted you to schedule the service and was able to arrange my schedule to arrive at your residence within 45 minutes. I also explained to you on the phone that I would be performing the limited Rodent Inspection from the ground level for $100.  I also explained to you the issues surrounding having a multi unit townhomes with shared walls and the difficulties.  I asked if you still wanted me to come out to look at your situation because you were still having a Rodent infestation after previously hiring an insulation company to resolve it. When I arrived at your door and provided you with our company card you seemed agitated.  As we walked together around your residence I pointed out to you all of the conditions that existed such as trees leaning over the structure and entry points that are in need of exclusion work including old work that would need to be replaced. I took photos and explained to you how the property manager for the HOA would need to be involved as the Rodent Infestation is in the neighborhood as well as in your 8+ unit townhomes.  I've also explained if you wanted us to perform a attic or sub access inspection we charge $300 to perform that service. You texted the president of the HOA's contact info and not the property manager who I was going to reach out to after writing my report for a treatment plan.  When I asked for payment for the inspection you were hesitant and seemed reluctant asking how I wanted to be paid.  I explained that a check or credit card are the most common ways and you provided me with a check.  You never verbally expressed any of the details that you have written in the review.  After I left I received a call from the president of the HOA which I would describe as aggressive as she explained that the HOA would not be responsible for the Rodent Infestation as she has managed it for 47 years and up to each tenant to find competent companies to resolve it themselves.  I can imagine the frustration with having to deal with the pest issue that everyone must be going through.  You explained to me that you are only trying to be fair to share your experience, even when I explained to you that I would waive the $100 fee to perform the inspection that you had agreed to.  I have also asked you multiple times what would you like for me to do to make you happy after I explained that I there would be no $0 for my services.
