Termite Control
Our termite control services combine Trelona ATBS baiting systems and Termidor liquid treatments to eliminate colonies and prevent re-infestation. Technicians perform thorough inspections, identify entry points, and install tamper-resistant bait stations around properties. The 10-year warranty on liquid treatments and lifelong coverage with annual renewals ensure long-term protection. Our methods target subterranean termites while avoiding harm to non-target species.
Bed Bug Control
Getem Services offers three-step bed bug treatments including initial inspections, conventional product applications, and two follow-up visits. Technicians install mattress encasements and monitors while educating clients on preparation steps. Commercial solutions cater to hotels and apartment complexes using discreet methods that minimize business disruption. The 30-day warranty guarantees re-treatment if pests return after the service cycle completes.

Report
Service is really horrible and for $120 per quarter I expect more. They set some rat traps that I had to call and have them check when they started to smell vs coming out or scheduling a follow-up while they were there. Then it went another another 3 months without being checked. The lady who answers the phone is rude and acts like she would rather be having a root canal. Of course no one set up a third check so when I called today, the first available is 2 weeks out and I am an existing customer. They also do not have appts later than 4, so if you work, you are out of luck. Also they will not spray for ants if it is raining or going to rain soooo, no need setting an appt 2 weeks from now.

I use them for both commercial and home applications and they are amazing with each. All of the techs are very knowledgeable about pests and the correct way to exterminate them. The front office staff is on the ball and very professional with all communication.

Solid customer service from these guys! They're very knowledgeable, from the person answering the phone all the way to the pest control techs that come out. They have affordable payment plans and have even come out if I noticed a pest In my house after their initial sweep of the house.

Thanks, Gary! New homeowner. New to the area. Gary came by to check our home and overall said the house looked good. We had noticed a collection of bugs in our master bath and were relieved it was a minor issue that didn't require their services. We fully expected him to spray the house but to our surprise, that wasn't the case, and that's a good thing. He didn't push any products. It was obvious he was trying to help, and I appreciate that. It was also obvious he knew his stuff, and the pest patterns/history in the neighborhood. Well done. We are using them from now on.

I started noticing some scratching noises behind a wall in my house, so I called Getem for a free inspection. Phil came out and quickly spotted the entry point into the house. He plugged the entry with steel wool free of charge, explained my options going forward, and told me to just give them another call if the problem persisted. I definitely won't hesitate to use them again in the future based on this experience.
