• "We called Orkin after witnessing a swarm of termites outside of our house. We were totally freaked out! The young man who did the inspection actually showed up early. After we showed him where we'd witnessed a swarm, he explained the types of termites and their habits. He did a thorough inspection of the outside perimeter of the house and pointed out evidence of beetles in the dead roots of long-gone trees around the house. He investigated the crawl space of the house and deck and even helped us lug out a large, beetle-infested board that had been stored under the deck. He also pointed out other possible problem areas (e.g., cardboard boxes in the garage). After a his inspection, he found no evidence of infestation, except for a stringer under the deck, which he recommended that we replace (he could have pushed chemical treatment of the board, but he didn't). We didn't pay a penny for the inspection. We were completely pleased and impressed with the professionalism, good humor, and integrity of service provider and would definitely turn to this company again in the future."

• "Jack Combs diagnosed my problem as subterranean termites, prepared a report and written cost estimate, and clearly answered my questions. He was prompt and helpful. Mauricio and an assistant were the technicians that performed the treatment. They drilled holes in concrete, wood, and plaster and injected them with termiticide. They were both very courteous and conscientious. They neatly filled all the holes they made, cleaned up after themselves, and explained everything they did. They showed up on time and completed the work promptly. I don't know how the price compares to other jobs, because I didn't get any other estimates, but the service was great and I would use them again."

• "I called several exterminators before deciding on Orkin. One company didn't show up. Another company sent out a guy who acted just like a used car salesman. He said that I had termites (I knew that!), measured the house without inspecting anything else and even did the used car stunt of calling his manager to get a lower price. When Anna from Orkin came out, at first, I was skeptical. Anna carefully inspected the damage. She correctly identified that there were two types of termites involved (I checked the UC Davis site), found a termite in a spider web in the house next door, and throughly inspected my house. The people who came out to do the treatment were equally thorough and they were careful and cautious not to cause any problems. And they were the same price as the guy who had to call his manager. I would highly recommend them! UPDATE: (November 29, 2012) Since the initial treatment, they've come out annually to inspect and treat, if necessary. They always call and set up a time. The people on the phone and the people who've come out have been dependably professional. All of them are also nice and friendly."
