Customer Reviews

Miriam Mauro

This pest control company has been great! We had an issue with carpenter ants and bees in our Log home and it is located in a remote area. They were able to service us and remove the issue along with the seasonal ladybugs and flies that we get that are common in our area. They seem pricey but you have to weigh if it’s worth the peace of mind. John and Brandon are the technicians that serviced our home and they have been incredible!!! Answering all my questions and informing and educating us on what they service and how it will eradicate the pests. The office is also very kind and quick in responding to any we ask. The only issue I have is they charge for in between service. On one hand I understand that, but on the other, we are paying a premium and wish this was included.

John was incredibly professional, thorough, and considerate of our home. He walked us through every step and gave us an in depth summary at the end. We’re excited to be working with him.

Lucas and Adam came to my home today. They arrived early with a complimentary advance phone call. Lucas presented himself to me and my wife and was very professional and courteous. The work on our home was completed in a timely manner with what I can see is practically perfect. The attention to detail and craftsmanship is outstanding and it blended in with the style and architecture of the house. Not only was the work done very well but on the exhaust vent on our propane fireplace we had a birds nest that was burning and potentially could have cause a significant structure fire. So great work and obviously they went the extra mile for us. Couldn’t be happier or more impressed with the people Meerkat Pest control sent to us. They obviously care about the quality of the people They employ!! Highly recommended. I can’t say enough how grateful we are for their service and their people. You will not be disappointed!! And a special shout out to Lucas and Adam for their great service to us!!!! You get what you pay for. And they earned every penny today!
