Great company. Requested service on Sunday and he was at my house on Monday. Sprayed inside and out. No heavy pesticide smell. High recommend.

Susan
Like most people, I am a creature of habit and do not like change. Since I moved, I have had nothing but change. I needed pest control and received a sort of Christmas card from Upfront Pest. I set it aside for the Spring. They promote upfront advertised pricing that the big companies don’t. I went online, chose my package and put in my information. In a day, Josh called me to set up an appointment. Very smooth and easy. Josh came to my house ON TIME (very important to me) and treated me like I have been a customer for years. We chatted about the house and the pests that I have and what he found. He didn’t mind me following him around and it was a very pleasant conversation. The best thing…….the price that was quoted, was the price I received. I even questioned the price because my house was a bit bigger. If you are looking for an excellent company and want to support a local business, Upfront Pest would be the chose to make.

Tanner Pearce
If you are paying for any other pest control company, you are wasting your money! I cancelled my old subscription with a competitor company and switched to Upfront Pest. I am paying 60% of my old subscription and getting better service and coverage. Josh is very knowledgeable and personable. Cannot recommend enough!
Provider response
Thank you, Tanner! We really appreciate you calling attention to our efforts to provide award-winning service at unbeatable prices. It is a privilege to serve you!

New business. Good guy, very thorough, actually communicates. Very pleased.
Provider response
Thanks Fred. We appreciate the kind review!
Katie Kentfield
Josh is the best! When my family moved to KS in September, Josh was immediately helpful in spraying our house for bugs. When we unexpectedly had swarms of Asian Lady Beetles outside of our house, some making their entry into the house, Josh came over and helped control and eliminate the situation. Josh is reliable and very helpful. I'm so glad we have Josh's help!
Provider response
Thanks, Katie! We are so grateful for this extraordinarily kind review. It is an honor to provide cost effective professional pest control to such wonderful people.

Thomas Carr
In my business, I work with Plyers and vendors and service companies multiple times every day. I can honestly say that I do not believe I have ever met a business owner more committed to his craft, more thoughtful, more professional, and more understanding of a customer‘s needs than Upfront Pest Control and it’s owner, Josh. I highly recommend Josh and his company to anyone who is considering pest control needs.
Provider response
Thanks Tom. That is one of the truly kindest reviews we have received. We work hard to provide value for our customers. We really appreciate the review and look forward to working with you.

I just moved here cross-country and had my first service with Upfront Pest. Josh was incredibly welcoming and made a great first impression. He was polite, communicative, and quick while still being thorough. It’s nice to feel taken care of right away in a new place!

Our experience with Upfront was terrific! It was easy to schedule, and Josh was prompt, thorough, and very knowledgeable.

We’re happy to have signed up for year-round service from such a reliable and effective company!

Thanks Clay! We appreciate the kind words and love helping out in any way that we can.

Meghan Parks
Josh met my client and I for a pest inspection on short notice and for the most reasonable price I’ve been able to find EVER in my time as a realtor. His attitude and knowledge were top notch and his inspection, very thorough. Highly recommend and will be referring to all our future clients as an awesome resource to find, prevent and remove pests.
Provider response
Thanks Meghan. We enjoyed working with you. Thanks for letting us help out your client!
Ngozi Edgmond
I had a fantastic experience with Upfront Pests! They responded to my request incredibly quickly, which I really appreciated. What really stood out was the personal touch — they left us a handwritten card to welcome us to the neighborhood when we moved in, which was such a thoughtful gesture. Josh did a great job treating both the inside and outside of our home. He was efficient, thorough, and very friendly to chat with. It’s clear this company cares about both quality service and building relationships with their customers. I’ll definitely be using their services again and highly recommend them!
Provider response
Thanks Ngozi! We appreciate the kind words and will keep working hard to provide excellent service.
Anne Lewis
Very communicative company; Josh showed up promptly to my property and gave me honest advice on what he saw during the initial property inspection and what he would advise for my package. Very reasonably priced. Seems like an upstanding pest control business compared to some of the big dogs out there. Recommend if you don't want a snake oil salesman showing up at your front door selling you something you don't need!
Provider response
Thanks for the review Anne! We strive to provide the best service in the business. We will continue to work to provide a 5 star experience.
Greg Brummitt
Josh came out today and took care of our many wasps nest plus sprayed inside and out for general pest control. UpFront’s pricing is so much better than any other company in the metro. It’s a no-brainer to get on their recurring treatment plan. My wife is glad we can finally tell the door knockers that “We’re covered and they’re cheaper than you!”
