I bought a house and they were called out for termites. Not only do I not have termites anymore but I’ve been in my home for 6 months now and have never seen a SINGLE BUG!! I mean, I’ve had a fly or 2 but I’ve never seen a beetle, spider, NOTHING!! Not even a mouse! My house is in the country and was built in the 60’s. Mind-blown!

Preferred Pest is wonderful! From the first contact with them, they were informative, professional and friendly. We set up an appointment and received a confirmation link and a reminder. Jenny was right on time. She was friendly and helpful. Jenny went into an insect filled rental home, took care of the problem and came out smiling..lol! The cost was minimal considering the problem. I would not consider calling anyone else and highly recommend Preferred Pest!

Shaun came out and did a very thorough inspection. He definetly knows his stuff and has a passion for what he does. Great company because of the great people.

Preferred Pest Control did an excellent job. Will was very thorough, and non-obtrusive. He treated the interior and exterior of our property. We have two dogs and there is no odor and no harmful exposure to them. The best part is you make an appointment and they show up when they say they will! High marks for our area! Thank you!
