Again, there were still yellow jackets. Ugly Bug was recommended and so I called and Bianca came out. She
We’ve been using Orkin’s service for 10 years and we typically only see one or even zero mostly, spiders/insects in the house and just a few outside around the house between services. We tried a different service several years ago, because they promised they were better, but after just one treatment we started to have many issues that we never saw with Orkin, so we switched back.

They called me back quickly after leaving a message, are competitively priced, and were able to come out and do a treatment within a week. Came back two weeks later for a follow up, and I haven't seen a carpenter ant since! Everyone I dealt with was super friendly. Will definitely use again if I have future pest control needs.
