Jake did a great job of removing the wasps that had made a nest in our older kitchen window outside frames. He was kind, reassuring and listened to all my worries and concerns about the issue. He came back twice and I believe the problem is resolved. I will watch very carefully on weekend to make sure. I am pleased with the service and would recommend to all to ask. Thanks Jake for being a great guy and doing a awesome job,

I'ver been a customer for more than 4 years. I have had service at 2 properties. I have found the team to provide high quality services. They are very responsive and have been considerate of our concerns. I will continue to use their services as they have met my needs.

Jake is definitely an asset to Chem-Wise. He patiently listened to all my concerns, and was very friendly and professional. He then completed a very thorough service to prevent my ant problem from returning. I was very happy with my experience.

We've used your services for many years and have always been pleased with your technicians who demonstrate care, safety, thoroughness, and are happy to answer questions and explain the process of their work. I love also that you will come back out without additional cost if we continue to have pest issues, including bees/wasps/hornets if we've had that service. Thanks for the great work and company you run.

Donald checked with us first to see if we had any areas of concern, so we told him the spiders have been active this year and he sprayed the indoor bathrooms, our screened in porch and the areas outside as he usually does. He is so polite and would do whatever we wanted. I appreciate how polite he is and his eagerness to take care of any pest areas. He gets 5 stars from us again this time.

Responses I received by your customer service rep Charity I found to be rude and sarcastic when I called on 7/28/2026 around 2:30pm about service reminders that I received via email and text. While trying to determine what if any services might need scheduling, she sarcastically responded that my inquiry could’ve been mistaken for somebody calling about wanting porch repairs as her reasons for her inability to follow a simple question. This after I had already indicated to her the reason for my call. This is the second time I’ve experienced this particular service representative's curt attitude. I am a new client with you having began using your service as of last year. I am currently using your service for two properties. If this occurs again, I will discontinue my service.

A bug guy did a great job killing all the bugs. He was also very kind and courteous because he had to come back because of other work I had going on around the house. He didn’t complain at all and was very nice about everything.

We’ve been customers of Chem-Wise for years and years. Chem-Wise has been consistently good and helpful with our needs. They respond to calls ASAP and come out promptly when needed. We highly recommend Chem-Wise. Thank you…

Service was thorough. Technician explained what he was doing & why. Also explained that he would be the one to service my home on any repeated visits. Good to be able to deal with the same individual instead of having to start over and explain my situation over and over again.

We used chemwise for control of ants. Ant season seemed to be more intense and longer this year due to wet weather. They treated both inside and outside and problem diminished. The tech was knowledgeable and provided detail explanation on treatment. They have a 90 day guarantee which we have not needed to use. They also did a wood eating formal pest inspection related to a sale of a house. The person who did inspection was knowledgeable and explained what they look for when doing these inspections.

The technician was very knowledgeable and courteous. This was a problem with yellow jackets. He treated the two areas and the yellow jackets were gone within a day.

Travelle was excellent ! Very thorough and professional. Probably the best Chem-Wise tech that has come out so far in the last couple of years .

Enrique treated areas again. Chemwise comes back if there is additional application needed at no additional cost. He fully explained the lifestyle of these pests.

I was called just prior to my appointment to let me know the arrival time. He treated for carpenter ants as well as the routine outside treatment around the house, although the hose didn't quite reach to the back of the house. He couldn't park in my driveway since it had been seal coated the day before. He did his best to treat the back area. He was very polite and explained how he was treating the ants. I'm happy with the results so far but will wait a couple more weeks to determine if the queen was eliminated and ants return.

I highly recommend Chem-Wise. From start to finish our Tech David Schmitz was excellent. David is very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. David took the time to explain and made sure the job was done right. It is obvious that David takes great pride in his work and truly cares about his customers. We will definitely use Chem-Wise and David again.
