Mike Rubino did a great job. He was very pleasant and told us what he was going to be doing. It was a dry hot day but he remained very professional.

The young man who came to our home most recently waited patiently for me to come to the door. He greeted me kindly, explaining why he was there. Honestly, for over 20 years, we have always had reliable, friendly, professional service at reasonable prices managing to keep pests outside where they belong! Thank you!

I have used Chem-Wise since 2024 for mice, ants, wasps, and hornets. Charles Budd always does a thorough and excellent job at eliminating any pest problems. I have recommended your company to others for pest control too.

We only had a few ants in the house but many outside. After a week or so after our initial service I was cleaning off my patio with my hose ants came out of the expansion cuts in the concrete. The service man came back and the second treatment seemed to work. Then Saturday after cutting my grass I noticed many ants on my walkway leading to our front entrance. None in the house!

Davis performed a thorough job of spraying to curb our ant rejuvenation. After a couple of days we saw no reoccurrence of the ants! Thank you for the repeat treatment

We were suddenly getting ants in our kitchen, on our stove! Yuck! The tech came out, sprayed the side of the house where they were coming from, and applied some gel bait behind our stove. We haven't had a single ant since then!

new contact. did not listen to me and did not complete the service which we have had for over 30 years.

Very nice people to work with, however is very overpriced. They also come out way too late in the season to spray for the tri- annual service to the point where it doesn't really matter. Nice people, but not worth the money.

We've been using Chem-Wise for years. They have been great at getting rid of yellow jackets and carpenter bees. Enrique has helped us the last two years. He is a personable and professional young man. He is very good at his job. We had yellow jackets coming into the house through the fireplace, and they have the proper equipment to reach them in difficult locations. Recently we've had a carpenter bee infestation of the mailbox. I felt bad for the mailman. You couldn't go near the mailbox. They were drilling large holes into the new wooden post. I doused them with 4 different commercial products, and it didn't faze them. Called Chem-Wise AGAIN, and Enrique treated the mailbox. They were gone in less than a week!

We were very happy with the rodent abatement service we received from Davis. He would always come to the door and talk with me before the service. He would explain and show me each time the service he was performing. He even moved the traps for me when I was concerned about certain areas. He was ver friendly and knowledgeable. This program saved our yard from the pest that was ruining it. I would recommend and use this service again.

After not showing up twice ,with no notice given,my first Triannual service was completed,When I called the office to complain the young lady there was apologetic but unable to shed any light on the matter,Hopefully the rest of the year will be less hectic and more professional,

Extremely disappointed in kn y'a this is the first time they have ever refused to do the interior of the house, where they've always done the interior of the house. All's attack would say is that he'll only do around the windows. The door trims, and if the basement was unfinished, before they used to do around the baseboards in between the stove, behind the refrigerator under the frigator and basically a complete great job in the interior to where now they do hardly anything in the interior. As far as the exterior goes, you could see several areas that they did not do this time.So even the exterior they did in an extremely poor and unfinished manner. They're very firm with not doing the job correctly. Anymore so I will no longer be using them. So please be aware that they do not do a good job anymore. They are not the same company that had a 4 and a 1 to a 5 star rating. This policy apparently has been inset forever.Even though we've used them for years, and this is the first time that anybody has ever brought these new conditions to our attention. If this is the way they're gonna complete your house service, i'm sure in the future the ratings are going to drop drastically
