Customer reviews for Barefoot Mosquito & Pest Control - Katy TX
Fred Young
Billed me $2700 for rat exclusion work they did not perform. Been trying for 2 weeks to have charge reversed. So far - unsuccessful. Promised 3 times to have manager call me. Finally had 1 call yesterday. Wants to come talk to me. Can’t rely on his crews word that another company had already done the work. Thank God they billed me through American Express. Dispute initiated.
Roderick White
We had an inspection scheduled for 2/3/26, and no one showed up. I took off work so I would be available. I called and spoke with customer service and the lady stated she would reach out to the tech for ETA, and that he will be reaching out to us with an ETA. This was a Complete waste of time! I have been using this company for years, even when it was Stampede pest control. You have turned a loyal customer to a now detractor. I took my business elsewhere for the issue we were having, and we are now thinking about canceling our quarterly services with you all because I refuse to spend money where I'm not treated right!
James Thibeaux
Happy with Darnell and his team (technicians). Very good service and knowledgeable. These guys work hard and I wish them the best. However, I will share that the management of this company doesn't understand how to communicate effectively, how to hold their team accountable to excellence, and how lifetime value of a customer works. I was randomly charged over $100 for a retreat and the customer service manger, Alexis, informed me that what was communicated to me was incorrect since the retreat was too close to my next service date (fyi, no policy has ever been shared or published). Had I known they were going to bill me in advance for my next treatment, I would have simply cut ties and found a better company. TO be clear, they stated in writing this was a free retreat. I really tried to resolve this. I'm frankly shocked at how this company turned a nearly 10-year loyal into a detractor over their team's numerous mistakes. All I simply asked for was a refund for the $100 charge they made on my card for a retreat that I was told was free -- but I was told sorry, there's nothing we can do despite the admin team stating otherwise.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear you were satisfied with the service provided in the field and appreciate the time you were with us.<br><br>For clarity, the charge referenced was applied in accordance with the service schedule and account setup at the time. The service was not complimentary, nor was the charge applied at random. While we understand there may have been confusion, the account was reviewed thoroughly and handled based on the information and service timing in place.<br><br>At this time, the account has since been closed. While we regret that this situation led to frustration, all billing actions were completed in line with our standard procedures.
Stephanie Hendrick
Do not use this company! They were supposed to come out and do pest control for me today and did not show up. I tried to call their office a minimum of six times today and never got a return call. I even drove to the address listed as their business address in Katy and it was a private residence! I believe this whole operation is a scam!
Provider response
Good morning,<br>We’re sorry to hear about your frustration. I do want to clarify that our technician serviced your property yesterday between 12:26 p.m. and 12:40 p.m. If you weren’t home, the service would have been completed on the exterior as scheduled.<br><br>Our Service Manager will be following up with you directly to make sure everything was completed to your expectations and to address any concerns you may have.<br><br>Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to clarify.
Peter Mistretta
Do not hire these people for anything related to termites/sentricon. They showed up without the proper tools to locate the stations, and proceeded to break a station. They did not perform a satisfactory inspection/replacement of bait, and are incompetent.
Provider response
Hello Peter,<br><br>Thank you for sharing your feedback. <br>Our Service Manager will be reaching out to follow up with you directly and review the details of your service to make sure everything meets expectations.

Jason was timely, thorough, professional, polite, and knowledgeable. Good technician.
Provider response
Thank you for your kind words Mr.Walker. We appreciate you.
Daniel Soto
I have to say that the service is actually good. My bad experience was that after losing a day of work, a human error caused poor logistics, and no one came to my house on the scheduled day and time for my appointment. I think many of us have work commitments and shouldn't lose a day of work just because someone comes to our house. The girl, Annie, was very kind, I won't deny that, but unfortunately, an internal logistical error wastes the time of people busy with their businesses. I don't even know yet if the service will work, but it already makes it clear that they are a bit disorganized internally.
Provider response
Thank you for your honest feedback—we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. We're glad to hear that you found the service itself to be strong and that Annie provided kind support. We understand how valuable your time is, and while scheduling challenges can occasionally arise, we know how frustrating that can be when you've made arrangements. Your concerns have been noted, and we’re committed to improving wherever we can to ensure a smoother experience moving forward.
Good Finder
After several years of super service I must update my previously posted review. The owner sold this business so we have different leadership. I noticed an immediate change in phone response and proactive scheduling. We called them out for attic rodents and they failed to locate all the points of intrusion around the house exterior, said they could not fix the point of entry on the roof and left. We hired another company that I have reviewed who found two points of entry, placed 12 traps in the attic and came back after a week and removed 8 filed mice and a large rat post mortem. Wow. Well there are still more up there and they will eventually get them all. Caveat emptor.

Best service in this area, those guys are great, very knowledgeable and friendly, they have been taking care of my home for over a year, yesterday I received their visit, the young man (unfortunately I don’t remember his name) was very helpful and extremely courteous . I’d recommend them.

Jennell
Life After Bugs has a new owner and the quality of their service is horrible. The front desk manager is just as unprofessional and dishonest as the employees that work there. I’ve been a loyal customer for 5 years until now. Be careful with this company!
Provider response
Hi Jennell. We hate to see this kind of feedback - the vast majority of the staff is the exact same as you've always worked with. Would you care to email me directly, and we can see if I can help at all? adam@barefootmosquito.com<br><br>Adam

Kathleen Witzke
I called to arrange an initial treatment of my newly purchased home that had signs of ants around the foundation and mud wasps (or whatever they’re called). Scheduling was easy and the pricing structure was well explained. Torrey was prompt, polite, professional, and patient as he explained what he was doing, why he was doing it, and what the result would be. He was also great about asking if I had any questions or concerns. Finally, he was willing to work around my nervous barking dog!

Neil Bekkalana
Guys don’t do business with this company trust me otherwise you wasting your money. They treated my house a week ago and charged me $ 173.20 but I don’t see any difference the bathroom full of roaches. We called them and talked to Debbie then she say sorry there is nothing to do. Or you can sign a yearly contract with us otherwise sorry.
Provider response
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback we are very sorry that we didn’t meet and exceed your expectations. Unfortunately, when a structure hasn’t been treated for an extended period of time the pest population has had a chance to build up behind the scenes in wall voids etc. Doing just one treatment usually begins to flush the issue out but requires more than a one-time treatment to properly address the infestation. Please let us know if we can assist you in the future, thank you!

Megan Marley Barnett
It is difficult to find a company and employees that you can rely on and are proactive in their communication, but I have definitely found it with Terrence and Life After Bugs! Terrence was very friendly and thorough in explaining to me what he was doing and what I needed to do in the days following the treatment. 5 stars for Terrence's service and Life After Bugs!

Ram Soundararajan
I used them in June to provide general pest inspection and treatment services which they did it on time and at a good value. I called them for a second-time visit and scheduled it in August but the technician did not show up when I called them, they said they forgot to schedule my appointment in the system. I had another session scheduled which they again missed showing up and with no comment. I sent a voicemail but have not received any response either. Something has changed since my last service and hopefully, the business can correct it.

Zohaib Hasnain
Their staff was extremely friendly and professional. Courteous, on time. They treated the entire house in a very timely manner. My issue is that the treatment near as much made no difference and I still have the same significant if not worsened problems that I did prior to treatment. I did not expect the bugs to disappear over night, however the treatment appeared to make no difference. May be I need a couple of more treatments to See any change. Edited: Owner has reached out since this review was left, and offered a retreat at no cost. I will update this review in the future with results, however for now I am Considering this good business practice on their part, and sincere effort. 5 stars.
Provider response
Hello Mr Hasnain,<br><br>Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Our records indicate that you had your initial pest control service done at the end of June. I am not sure how long it had been since you had previously been treated before we serviced your residence but typically we recommend quarterly or bi monthly treatments because most chemicals are labeled to be effective for only 6-8 weeks. So if it had been an extended period of time since your last pest control service the pest population has been building up throughout that time and one treatment may not be enough to eliminate the issue. However we always warranty our work so I will have the office contact you for a retreat at no cost to you. Thank you for your business, have a blessed day!
