Made an appt. with this service when evidence of mice damage appeared in my home. I appreciated the on-time arrival, the thorough inspection and the honest endorsement and approval of measures we had taken which seems to have resolved the problem. We agreed on a return inspection and probable treatment when cold weather is likely to see a return to the attic area of my home. If the problem recurs before then, I will definitely call on Ray's.

I have used this business since 2012 and had great service until recently. 3 months ago we are charged a service and the person did not go around the house. We contacted the office and sent pictures of the spiderwebs that had not been removed all around the house. The person in the office was kind and said we could have them come back out. We were unable to have them back out until the time of our service, today.
When we contacted the office, they said we had not acted in a timely way so we are charged for the last time and this time. We will not be using this service again as of today.

The first guy who did our Mosquito service was great! However, the next guy who came seemed nervous and was acting strange. We have an acre of yard space that he supposedly treated in 15 minutes time. Impossible! There was no change in the number of mosquitos after he left. The third and final time Ray's came out to spray for mosquitoes, there was still no difference after the spraying. I'm not sure what they sprayed, but the mosquitoes were not bothered by it at all. We'll pass and move on to another company.

We have used Ray Pest for over 15 years as our termite bond and insect control provider for my community. High quality, responsive service and help with some unique situations.like racoons and other larger animals that needed to be deterred or trapped and removed when necessary. Honest and on time, they truly strive to provide the best service and to take care of their customers.

Cory was great at communicating with us on our basement buildout project and went above what he needed to do by helping us keep the areas clean for our clients. His team worked quickly and was professional in their appearance, project completion, and speech. I'll definitely be working with them again!

They were tasked to complete a home pest inspection prior to purchasing our home. The inspection was incomplete and still stated no pests found. We now know first hand Ray's doesn't know what roaches look like. I was there for a home inspection to verify nothing structurally was wrong. During that inspection we saw roaches and conveyed this to Ray's prior to their inspection.
They still found nothing and the money I paid was wasted. BUYER BEWARE! Can't trust a pest company that doesn't know what a pest looks like but, I have photos of they want to learn.

I started using Ray Pest Control on this house in 1993. Inspection reports always negative for termites. In about August I noticed something "sinking "under one of the columns on my front porch. Had a termite inspection on 9/29/1920. No termites. Figured it must be water damage. Had another quarterly inspection on 12/2/2020 and again got a clean bill of health. Started repair work on 12/6/2020. Lo and behold, TERMITES! Called Ray Pest Control right away! Technician came out next day. Yep, termite infestation. Active!
Next day supervisor came out with contractor. Yep, termite infestation! It took 3 weeks to get a response to my concerns. Answer was that my contract didn't cover repairs! So I paid for 27 years of termite protection and detection only to have to point out termites to termite company! Is there something wrong with this picture? And this was an easily observed area. Tried to negotiate with Ray Pest Control about costs, but I've been ignored.
And now I get to pay for replacement of front porch floor system. Still getting bids. Hoping for something under $10,000. If this is the way you want to be treated, go for it!

Have been using them for the past 2 years and never had any problems. The techs are polite, knowledgeable, and punctual. If they are going to be even 5 minutes late they contact you with an updated time. If you have a service contract like we do they come out four times a year or as many times as you need to eliminate any pest problems you might have. The tech we had out today Stacey Schoening gave us a professional and efficient service call. The office staff is friendly and great about returning e-mails or phone calls.

We have been customers of Ray Pest Control for years. Lois is our representative, and she always comes right on time, listens to any concerns we have, and addresses them. She is very professional and has a great personality. Jamal was our previous representative and he was top-notch, too. It seems that the company is careful with its hiring and training, finding the best people. We just received notification that rates will be increasing, but we're hoping it won't be a large increase.

Renee and the team at Ray pest-control are the absolute best! We have been using them for our home pest control for several years now and they always do a great job with our services. All of the techs are very friendly and always act very professional. I would highly recommend Rays to anyone looking for a home pest care service!
