“So I had an sugar ant problem, but my husband came home and told me about the Orkin guy he meet while at work I was super excited to give them bad boys a call because I couldn’t deal with them lil suckers anymore! The day I reached out to them I received a quote and a appointment date which I was satisfied with The guy (Ryan) that came out and explained everything to me about why the ants was getting in and what he can do to get them out it’s a process but it’s also a start to see how this goes NOW they do have a 50% off so go get your quote and book your appointment you want but disappointed.“

“Timothy has been great. He does our mosquito treatment outside and treats inside our home, too. We moved into a rental house 3 years ago with German roaches and have been at war ever since. He understands, and explains everything clearly, especially living here in FL with prime environments, in a lower income area… We tried another company for two years and hardly saw an improvement other than the initial ‘knock down’. Now, we rarely see them, and when we do, they’re either dead or affected by the powder (mutated/dried up). I can see the disruption in their ‘hatching pattern’, to say the least. Our mosquitoes are (almost) irrelevant (thanks neighbors). We’re throwing some consistent money at this issue and Orkin came recommended by a local friend. They’ve not disappointed yet, 1 yr. in. Thanks Orkin & Timothy for all your hard work!“

“Orkin has been wonderful since I switched my home maintenance plan to them a few years back. Just this week Miranda too the extra step of treating one of my trees specially to accommodate my backyard chickens.
Love this locally owned and run company!“

“Chaz was great. He was here a little over an hour got everything including the attic. An inspector with Orkin came out as well though I didn’t get his name. I highly recommend both of them. They aren’t pushy trying to sell you a bunch of stuff you don’t need but they were extremely thorough in checking my house. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.“
“David, Jack, and Ray at Truly Nolen did a great job helping solve our rodent issue. They were all kind, knowledgeable, and their work was quick and efficient. I recommend them 👍🏻“
Rebecca L.

He has been helping treat our community for termites and even the residents have let me know how great and polite he’s been throughout this whole treatment. Not to mention he did the whole community mainly by himself! Props to Leon!“

“David has been amazing at eradicating our cockroach infestation. We had just moved into our new home and had a horrible infestation. His first visit he came into the home and used a combination of dusting, bait, and spray in the main area where we saw the most activity. He has always been very professional and thorough, contacting me before hand to let me know when he will be out, always on time, and gives me a break down of what he has done afterwards and what he saw that needed to be addressed. He completely got rid of our roach problem and I am immensely grateful!!“

“The team is always friendly and inquires if I have any questions or concerns that they can address. Since I have a baby in the house, they ensure to use safe chemicals and provide explanations about the products they use, highlighting what I should be cautious of. When I have a concern before my next treatment is scheduled, they are quick to respond and typically come out within 1-2 days.“
Cheryl W.
“I’ve had a fantastic experience with Mr. Johnnie Brown. Mr. Brown was prompt, professional, and very knowledgeable. He walked me through the entire process and explained how the treatment would work. I really appreciated the transparency and attention to detail.

Larry G.
“Jordan has provided the most complete service since I’ve been a client. He even sprayed on my deck, which no one else has done. If these are new directions to the techs, hooray. If not, he did the best service. Thanks for putting him on my route.“
Sue B.
“I would like to thank Jeff for doing a great job today. In fact, I would like to request him in the future. Y’all were supposed to provide service a couple of weeks ago, and your guy showed up without the equipment to service the inside of my house. To be honest, I almost called you to cancel my service then. Instead I rescheduled. Today Jeff did exactly what I signed up for, but too often you don’t provide. He sprayed indoors and out, swept my eaves for spider webs and took care of a couple of wasp nests. He did a great job. Thank you very much.“
Rick T.
“Very polite and wearing a mask (I appreciate that). Introduced himself and asked if any particular place was heavy with mosquitoes, I told him I work in my garage with the door open and he made sure to get that side of the house thoroughly.“
Steven W.
“Montana was pleasant and most helpful in taking care of the service requested. We are happy and pleased with great service and the professional assistance given. SHB“
“Daryn sprays my lawn at 250 CR 416s
Lake Panasoffkee and has for a long time. The company slipped another employee on my yard for a couple of months and when the new person started my lawn went done hill in a New York minute. If Dryn does not continue spraying my lawn I am canceling my service. July was given to me free to see if I would stay and I will as long as Daryn is the one who comes. He has scheduled a Follow up to insure proper treatment was done.“
ANNETTE M.
“Charles is the reason I am still with Heron. He is polite, so very courteous, calls to let you know he’s on his way and extremely knowledgeable and friendly. His expertise keeps my house bug free. I would highly recommend him to anybody. He is a true asset to Heron.“
Barbara T.
“I would recommend Jesus Rivera at Heron Home & Outdoor. He is very knowledgeable in pests both inside and out. He is punctual and very detailed with his service. If he is needed on a non-scheduled regular service, he will fit you in to come see you as soon as he can while in your area.“
Jeff G.
“Joe is always courteous, professional and extremely knowledgeable about lawn care. I trust his expertise because he has solved every issue I have ever had with my lawn. Just ask for Joe. He's the best!!“
Patricia N.
“Heron recently came out for an indoor treatment, and I I'm very pleased with the service. From the start, communication was clear and easy. I was even able to set up my appointment via text message. Charles, the technician, was fantastic—super friendly, respectful, and explained everything in a way that made sense. He took his time and made sure the job was done right. You can tell he cares. The treatment is working as expected, and I’d definitely recommend Heron.“
“I have a bi-level home w/ ENORMOUS WOLF SPIDERS in my garage that connects to my bottom living room, while we have not completely eradicated the issue yet, my reason for leaving a review is really about my technician, Dominique Day. He is amazing. He is so friendly, helpful, professional, and always on time. I think he deserves recognition from leadership. I will continue to use Ehrlich, even though we haven not fully resolved my spider issue, because of Dominique.“
Keah P.
“I have been using Ehrlich for over 20 years. I have always been very satisfied with their service. They are always on time and very professional. I would highly recommend them.“
Linda S.
“My service tech is awesome. He makes sure my home is pest free. Only thing I don’t care for is the scheduling tool they have moved to. Sometimes a 2-3 day notice isn’t the most convenient to schedule around. It would be ideal if when my service tech was leaving we could discuss a mutually convenient time to schedule ahead.“
Patty P
“We had Chris today who can by and he was so polite and great. Actually, all of the people from your company that came by were excellent! We also had another guy named Darrell that came by a few months ago and he was just so knowledgeable and just a great guy! Please let them know that they did a really awesome job! Thank you!!!“
Florida residents often face various pest issues due to the state's warm climate and abundant vegetation. One common pest that plagues many households is the infamous mosquito. These tiny insects thrive in Florida's humid conditions and are known for their itchy bites, not to mention the potential transmission of diseases such as West Nile virus and Zika virus. Effective mosquito control measures can significantly reduce the annoyance and health risks associated with these pests.
Another nuisance that Floridians encounter are ants, particularly the invasive species like the Argentine ant and the crazy ant. These pests can quickly infest homes, contaminating food and causing structural damage. Their ability to form large colonies makes them particularly difficult to eliminate without professional intervention. A reliable pest control service can assess the extent of the infestation and provide targeted treatments to eradicate these ants.
Lastly, Florida is also home to various types of rodents, such as rats and mice. These pests can cause extensive damage to structures, wires, and insulation, not to mention the health risks associated with their droppings and urine. Residents often rely on pest control services to implement rodent control strategies that ensure the removal and prevention of these unwanted guests.
When faced with pest issues like mosquitoes, ants, or rodents, Florida residents can benefit from the expertise and services provided by professional pest control companies. Their knowledge of local pest behavior and effective treatment methods can help homeowners regain control of their living spaces and maintain a pest-free environment.
Pest Resources in Florida
Florida is home to a diverse range of pests, wildlife, and invasive plants and animals that can cause challenges for its residents. Luckily, there are several state and regional resources available to provide assistance and guidance in managing these issues. One such resource is the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC), which offers valuable information and resources to help residents with wildlife-related concerns. They can be contacted at 1-888-404-3922 or via their website at www.myfwc.com.
For residents dealing with pest control issues, the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) is a helpful resource. They provide information on pest identification, prevention, and control methods. You can reach them at 1-800-HELP-FLA or visit their website at www.freshfromflorida.com/Divisions-Offices/Plant-Industry.
Invasive plant and animal species can also pose a threat to Florida's ecosystems. The Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council (FLEPPC) works towards the prevention and control of invasive plants in the state. They offer resources and guidance on identifying and managing these species. More information can be found at www.fleppc.org or by contacting them at 352-392-1799.
Remember, when dealing with pest, wildlife, or invasive plant and animal issues, it is important to consult with these state and regional resources to ensure effective and responsible management.
