Derek Gerber
We found that yellow jackets had been nesting in our attic above our master bathroom. We called and got a response immediately and Justin was out at our house within the next hour. Took care of the nest inside and found another outside that he also took care of. Very happy with the work, the urgency and the explanation of the chemicals that were used.
Provider response
Thanks Derek! It was our pleasure to help out

I recently had the pleasure of working with Central Ohio Bug Extermination, and I can't recommend them enough! From start to finish, their service was absolutely outstanding! Firstly, their thoroughness was impressive. They didn't just target one type of bug; they addressed every different type with precision. Their extensive knowledge of every type of bug and their use of different kinds of pest elimination for each one blew my mind and ensured that no pest was left behind! Moreover, their dedication to the job was evident as they went over all the areas multiple times, ensuring that every nook and cranny was properly treated. It's rare to find such commitment to excellence in service these days! But what truly set them apart was their expertise. Not only did they effectively eliminate the existing pest problem, but they also provided valuable advice on how to prevent future infestations. Their in-depth understanding of pests and was truly amazing! 100% Central Ohio Bug Extermination exceeded my expectations in every way possible. If you're in need of pest control services, look no further. They are, without a doubt, the best in the business! Sam you rock!!

Sam is the bomb! We had him come to spray back when we bought our fixer upper house....saw evidence of roach infestation in the kitchen and two dead mice were found behind drywall we ripped out to put in a new kitchen. Not a sign of a bug or a mouse since. Asked him to return for a six month treatment. Love the unmarked truck...no other company in Columbus Ohio offers unmarked vehicles...keeps people from wondering why we are having our home sprayed...none of anyone's business. We hope Sam will keep us on his client list for as long as we live in the area!

Sam is the bomb!! Glad we could help!

I hired this company to address a Squirrel Removal problem for my parents and they did a fantastic job. The Squirrels had made several holes in my roofline wood trim and they damaged the Attic insulation when making their nests. I was so happy to hear that Central Ohio Bug handles all Animal Control Services in the area we live in. They have always been very professional and reliable to work with for pest control services. The Animal Control technician arrived shortly after we called and he found the Squirrels entering from. The attic fan that was open on the roof. The Animal Control technician installed a rooftop fan cover to keep out the Squirrels and other Critters in our neighborhood. I cannot thank them enough for all of the excellent service that they provided me and my family in a emergency situation. I would highly recommend their Animal Control Service for all your Wildlife Control needs.

Spoke to them on the phone today and even though we were outside of their coverage zone they did everything they could to get us pointed in the right direction for our yellow jacket problem. If they treated me, a non-paying customer, great that can only mean that they'll treat you even more care and respect.

We had two ground Yellow Jacket nests in the flowerbeds around our home for four weeks. We could never find the entrance to the nests as they were in the middle of bushes. We tried flooding the area with water from the hose, turning over a shovel of dirt near their nest (digging up part of their nest …and getting stung four times) and two different powders. After being stung a total of 12 times we called on a Saturday morning and reached “Justin,” the owner. He scheduled “Sam” for Wednesday. On Wednesday “Sam” phoned and arrived 30 minutes later. He was done in 45 minutes later. Yellow Jackets dug out, sprayed and powdered. All gone! (I called A DIFFERENT exterminator BEFORE calling “Justin” and they emailed me a multi-page contract, wanted me to read it, sign it electronically and pay them with a credit card while on the phone. I told them I would read it and call them back later. I didn’t make it to page two before I was no longer interested. I then called “Justin” and getting “Sam” to come out was simple.)

Local company, professional, fast response, cost comparable to other companies. Sam, our technician, was friendly, kind and professional. He listened to my concerns (about my dogs) and answered my questions. I absolutely recommend them!
Provider response
Thanks for the kind words Ashley. It was our pleasure to help out
Alex Bishop
Highly recommend. Justin and Sam were both knowledgeable and friendly. They were able to come the same day to take care of our ant problem and we saw nearly immediate results! Great value and great service.

Absolute HORRID customer service by Justin. I was referred to this company at the end of April to take care of an ant & spider problem. Central Ohio Bug Extermination had no issues with taking my money, but when giving the company feedback that my spider problem was not taken care of, I was told I need to pay more. Before reaching back out to Central Ohio Bug Extermination, I was told to wait a couple months by Sam (the service provider) for results. Sam mentioned it would take a couple months for the solution to take effect. I reached out to Justin and gave him my honest feedback about the service and I was hoping to get the spider problem resolved. After spending over $300 for a one time treatment I was told would irradiate both issues, I’m now being asked to spend and additional $179 for the same treatment that didn’t work the first time. I let Justin know I was disappointed in the solution being offered to me and I had hoped there could be a better resolution. Upon leaving my honest review on Google of Central Ohio Bug Extermination, I received a hostile call from Justin demanding I take it down. I have NEVER been more appalled by the way this was handled. It’s a terrible reflection of Central Ohio Bug Extermination and I would not recommend investing in this company.
Provider response
We do not work on contracts but we always offer our guarantee that the issue will be solved. We serviced Sierra 3 months ago and hadn't heard anything from her since initially solving her problem months ago. It had been a reoccurring issue that some people take advantage of the fact that they can yield power by threatening to leave a negative review- which she did- if we wouldn't come back and spray again- essentially hoping for a 2 for 1 treatment 3 months later. I never called demanding or being hostile- it's not in my nature to do so. I believe my reviews are a honestly reflection of the way I do business but I will not be taken advantage of or threatened.

Excellent customer service. The owner answered during off hours and was very professional during my time of panic. This exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend them for your bug needs.

I called early this afternoon and spoke to Justin and explained I needed someone out this afternoon. Justin was very polite, helpful and thorough in explaining things to me. Justin had Sam call me right back to see what time I needed him to arrive. I told him I needed him here by 3:00 PM. Sam said he would be here by 3:00. He arrived at 2:45 and had our problem taken care of by 3:30. Sam was very polite, professional, and explained the process to me. I would highly recommend this company! Nina Calabria

I used Sam and Justin since purchasing my home 3 years ago. Talk about on top of things and coming fast to my responses and showing up right away. They got here with in hour is amazing. I started with bee wasp and ant issues. They came back twice. To treat , then I had rats and mice invaded my home they came out same day treated and blocked every spot you could think of and baited outside. They treat my yard for carpenter ants and the front house of the house due to a a bad infestation. Treat my home before new windows and floors were installed to prevent future issues I can say these guys are great, especially with my son going thru chemo and renal cancer. I can text anytime and they respond within few min I have used other big-name companies and will never use them a gain . I will continue using these guys because every time used them my problem is cleared up. Every spring I have to treat for ants just to be safe since my home use to be rental and wasn't treated for years. Thank you guys for understanding my budget and health concerns and helping quickly
