Report
Lucas is my technician, and the only reason I'm rating Springer Pest Control (SPC) a 4 - Lucas himself deserves 5 stars. I have had SPC do summer service for the past two summers and I could indeed tell a difference. This year, the day after my scheduled service a carpenter bee hive had been created against my house just outside the back door. I called SPC, told the receptionist my dilemma and she informed me that Lucas had left for vacation and that she would let her manager know, as it would require management approval to dispatch someone out to correct the issue.
They never came, never followed up with me, and I was stung, and others were also stung by these bees. 6 gallons of bug spray from me and the hive continue to thrive. My next scheduled appointment arrived, but I had a doctor appointment when Lucas came to conduct service. I was disappointed that I didn't have a chance to tell, and show Lucas about the hive. But that was alright, because Lucas found the hive and eradicated it. I'm angry at the management for not caring enough about their customers to send help. Lucas, thank you for an excellent year.

Erik has been my pest control technician for about a year. He is extremely knowledgeable and detailed with his inspections. He is responsive and listens to my concerns. I am allergic to hornets/yellow jackets and when I recently thought there was a nest in my yard, he came out the same day to take care of things. Thank you Erik for all you do!

I have been very happy with their service. They inspected my home for the presale so we felt it was best to try them out. Spend $50 monthly plus tax for them to come out every other month for regular inspections. However, I have called them between inspections for spiders and wasps. They come out for everything but bedbugs and usually can come out within two days.

I have been with Springer for many years. I have within the last year had Caleb S assigned to take care of my home. He is the most thorough technician we have experienced. He has always taken the extra time to explain any questions that I may have. He never disappoints. Art Knapp also does an outstanding job, he provides service to a Townhome Community I manage on the south side.
