Recent Reviews in New Castle
The Worst! A totally incompetent company that does not do their job. They were supposed to do a thorough inspection and treat any areas that would be a threat for mice. They never bothered to check the attic. When my electrician was up there, he found mouse droppings in the attic. I called home paramount and said I needed someone out right away to go in the attic. I told them not to send their biggest person because it's a tight fit. They sent the big guy, and he showed up totally unprepa
I’m leaving this review as Mr. Lewis is & has been extremely professional since taking over as my quarterly service exterminator in June 2025. After my previous service technician moved to another company after years of great service I was definitely going to find a new exterminator due to the terrible coordination of service. If not for Mr. Lewis’s professionalism & sincere interaction with me & my family I would have changed exterminator’s in June. Paramount has not properly scheduled my appoi
After some misunderstanding regarding services and contracts after sale of the property, and after posting a review in that regard, they were quick to proactively reach out to resolve. Their resolve was completely fair. I believe they also put some changes in effect to ensure these types of issues don't recur to others. So, with this correction and proactive support, I'd recommend them for their treatment effectiveness (they're pretty good at it!) and good customer relations and support.

Hello Jeff. Thank you for your review, and update to reflect a resolved issue. Again, apologies for any misunderstanding or mistake. I appreciate your understanding, and kind words about our treatments.
Our Royal Pest experience was great. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and efficient from my initial scheduling through to their home visit. They swiftly took care of our problem and were thorough in explaining their procedure. If we had any other pest problem, Royal Pest would be our first call and we recommend them to everyone we know.
Everyone that we have ever worked with at Royal Pest have been awesome. They are on time, professional, and willing to help with any questions or concerns you have. I never hesitate to give them a call.

Thank you. We'll work hard to keep earning those five stars!

“I was an EcoShield customer for about a year and a half. The service was ok... never great, but it was acceptable until their “free annual inspection" this fall. I was told it would be a 90-minute, top-to-bottom inspection of the whole house. The technician was here for only about 20 minutes. His explanations for our pest issues were dismissive (“your dogs can handle the mice,” “fruit flies are normal if you have fruit,” “ants come in because they like water”) and offered no actual solutions.

“I have never left a review for any business before but what happened with this company deserves a review. I called Orkin out to take a look at a pretty aggressive yellow jacket nest my husband and I have by our side door that goes into our bedroom. We knew it was there since the start of the season and had been using spray and treating it at home as we did not have the financial capability of calling someone out, but they continued coming back. Eventually the yellow jackets found a way into my ”

“The sales people of this company are liars! They were going door to door in my neighborhood selling services to people. The sales person told me if I decided I didn't want the service or didn't find it useful I could "fire" him at any time. No obligation. Then I find out he lied and I'm tied in for a year service that I don't want. The service was not useful and I didn't need to continue with them. When I call to cancel I get the BS about a termination fee. I plan to change them back and never d”

“Management's customer service is unprofessional in the way they handle customers' questions, requests and complaints. I have used them in the past and am not sure why a company would treat someone this way. It was too much in asking for a courtesy call to inform me a technician was on his way. Other companies do this so you have time to be home in case you are at the store or briefly away from the home. They do this by a text message with the technician's name and picture. This would be hel”
