Jonathan is the Tech that services my house and does a fantastic job. Last year we had some Mice Issues and they came out for free to take care of the problem. These guys communicate very effectively and not to mention they have very affordable plans and options that fit my needs.

I have been using Around the block pest control for a few years now. Jonathan has been out to my home the last few times to treat my home. Jonathan is very friendly and professional. The treatment used works for 90 days with no issues. Compared to other companies that want to treat my home monthly at a higher cost, Around the block pest control is able to treat my home quarterly at a lower cost makes Around the block pest control a great value. I would recommend anyone looking for pest control to use Around the Block Pest Control.

We have been using Around the Block for over 4 years. I think they provide a quality service at a good price and they are always professional. We switched from another company to Around the Block Pest Control for our quarterly pest control services. There was almost an immediate difference in the number of little bugs and spiders that we saw. I also like that if we have another issue pop up, bees or wasps for example, they are quick to respond.

Just had my quarterly service from Around the Block. We usually just spray for bugs, but this time we asked for some help identifying rodent activity. Jonathan did a great job for us! We got a few traps deployed along with guidance about next steps. We're totally satisfied with this team and plan to keep using them for years to come!
