Fantastic! I am afraid of just about every insect out there. When I called, the lady in the office was so nice, and helped put my mind at ease. When the exterminator showed up, he was very knowledgeable and attacked my ant issues. I signed up for a plan, and was surprised at how affordable it was! I've referred many friends to use these guys.

We have used ACTION PEST CONTROL quarterly for about ten years; We will continue to use them ...they are the champs. Our pest manager, Derek Darling is the BEST...Not only is he thorough, timely, and proficient, but, also extremely affable...and this to us (and probably many others) is really important...Derek is dog friendly. Yes, ACTION PEST CONTROL (AND Derek) are great, and, I would recommend their services to ANYbody...

I can't rave enough bout the service I just received during the past 10 days. From the 1st meeting which was a weekend consultation, Derek was amazing. We had multiple squirrels wreaking havoc throughout our house. Derek way exceeded my expectations. So thorough and did n amazing job of keeping me posted as to the status. He even did a few extra jobs to help us out ( reattaching gutters, clearing out some debris etc) I could keep going! Don't give it mother thought. Hire Derek and Action Pest!

We had a problem with mice. Seth came the first time and inspected our home. He assessed the situation, and we discussed how to address the problem. He's come back twice more, and we now have the problem under control. Today he distributed cones to address a tick problem in our yard. Seth is courteous, knowledgeable and reliable. I highly recommend him.

Action Pest came to us highly recommended by friends and we have used them three times: first for wasps, then for mice, then for bats. Each time our problem was taken care of immediately and didn't return. Most recently, Seth, while expertly taking care of some mice, noticed bat droppings in our attic (we had not seen a bat ourselves) and sent Dereck out to take care of them. Dereck is extremely experienced and not only carefully helped our bats find their way out, sealed all holes, and cleaned, but went out of his way to take care of a few additional potential issues he could see, unrelated to what he was here for. We're thankful for having Action Pest in our pocket!

This is the company to call. Hands down. Dereck came on the same day, he got rid of the squirrels in my house AND he took care of the mice which another company (will remain nameless) couldn't fix and charged me a shocking amount of money for. He fixed in 3 days what they couldn't do in 18 months. He is also very nice! I can't recommend highly enough.

I had about 100 or more bats living in my attic for probably 2 years. Derek came out and got rid of all of them along with cleaning the entire attic as well. He also sealed up every possible space, so that they cannot ever get back in again. In the winter, one got inside the house due to a bad wind storm bending a piece of metal on my chimney. Derek came right out (even though he had just gotten home over a half hour away from me) and got the bat out in two seconds.
He also fixed my chimney. Wicked good guy, super knowledgeable, responsive. Even though many people have a "warranty" we all know that doesn't mean they actually show up when needed. It's rare to find that and Derek is a rarity in the best way! I appreciate this guy beyond belief!

Derek is very knowledge about wildlife and he has 30 years experience. I called him on a Saturday night, he returned my call promptly, answered all my questions and showed up on Sunday to place traps for skunks. I thought one may have expired under my front porch. Before setting traps he crawled under my porch and reached in the woodchuck hole, sure enough he found an expired skunk.
I would recommend Action Pest Management. And I will use them again and I highly recommend them. I had called another business and it was three times as much money, which they wanted up front and they were going to set up cameras as opposed to crawling under to look for the skunk. I highly recommend Action Pest Management, Derek was very knowledgeable and willing to do what it takes to take care of your wildlife problem

We had two squirrels living in our crawlspace/walls. Derek got them out in a week without harming them at a very fair price. You can tell he cares about his work and the animals. Very professional and personable and shows up exactly when he says he will. No reason to look anywhere else for your pest problems. Highly recommend to anyone. Service: General wildlife removal

I've used others. Action was the best. Not cheap, but I do believe you get what you pay for. I got great service and results. Dereck was the service person. He was professional-he knows his stuff, communicated, texted in a really helpful way, was courteous, and also kind. Let me say again, he's so knowledgeable. He's been doing this for a while, and he knows and cares about his work. Critters are wiley, so I may have to and would definitely call Action again. Thank y'all!

Dereck is the best; very professional, very competent. Excellent experience and will go the extra mile to get the job done and resolve any pest problem for you. Most important, he will not try to sell you a treatment or program that you do not need. There is a reason that Dereck and Action Pest Control annually make the "Best In The Berkshires" list. I have recommended him to many friends without hesitation.

As the proud owner of an air bnb, I have always needed to ensure that it is in tip top shape for those who come and stay. Action Pest Management has helped me do so. We had been seeing signs of mice, so I contacted Action and they came out quickly and completed a very thorough inspection. The technicians are extremely knowledgable and friendly, and provided a great service. What made them more admirable to me was that they give senior discounts! I will definitely be using Action in the future!

Skyler came today and checked our house for mice and whatever critters might be making noises and leaving evidence behind. He was here for a while, checking the attic (which is hard to get into) and the basement and perimeter of the house. He found and sealed points of entry and also told us something we'd never expect: We have bats. He left some bait traps in places that need them and he'll check them quarterly.
He also sprayed the perimeter of the house for other pests. He was very thorough and very professional. I highly recommend Skyler. He's been with the company for a while and knows what he's doing. I feel so much better after having him here, especially learning that I don't have a major infestation.

I found it difficult to get technician down. I usually had to be the one to call for an appointment. I never really felt that a thorough job was done. When I had an emergency, they were hesitant to take care of it. I switched to a new larger company and found them to be thorough, and felt that house was fully covered. When I had emergencies, they would take care of it right away. Also, I realized that I am paying less per year.

Excellent fast nontoxic (to humans) service Will come other than quarterly if you call him This house was afflicted with mice bees and ants before Action Pest appeared I can't recommend him highly enough. If you are around when he services your house you can talk to him and learn much about pest control

This company is amazing! I had had another company come first that told me there was nothing I could do because I have such an old house (1831), that there were too many cracks and holes to fill. Then Dereck came over from Action Pest Management and painstakingly for several days filled every crack and hole (he even found a hole that squirrels were coming in) and sealed the house up.
He was terrific! Not only did he get rid of the bats in the attic, he also got rid of the mice, which in a country house is quite a feat. He's very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. He took the time to educate me on the habits of the local rodent population. It's been been over 3 months since he was here and I haven't had a rodent problem since. I can not recommend this company enough. Dereck takes pride in his work, which happily the customer benefits greatly from.

Requested carpenter ant treatment for the house explicitly requiring treatment that would not adversely affect the bees or other insects in the area. We then had the carpenter ant control treatment around our house. They used fipronil which is a known contributor to honeybee colony collapse. We are devastated as we now see no bees, butterflies or even hummingbirds in our beautiful garden, and feel terrible for having inadvertently contributed to this destruction.

This company is fantastic. I was given their number by the Williamstown Police when I called them in a panic. I had come up for the July 4th weekend and found that a raccoon had had a party in the house while it was empty. I was very scared to find the raccoon, but Dereck gave me good information on how to handle things that night and he was at the house at 8 am on July 4th.
He did a thorough walkthrough with me to verify that the raccoon was no longer in the house, he did a thorough inspection on the chimney to make sure there weren't more raccoons up there and helped me understand what needed to be done to secure the house both in the short term and the long term. Dereck was knowledgeable, kind, very transparent about his services and pricing- he was supportive in helping me figure out which services were most economical under the circumstances, and most importantly, he made himself available on July 4th! I can't say enough good things about the company. They made an awful situation that much better!

This past summer I had a bee problem at my house. I called Action Pest Control. Their technician, Jeff Hughes, responded within an hour of my call. It took two days to completely get rid of the very large nest that was in the walls of my house. Jeff and his results were awesome. If you have a pest problem, call Action Pest Control. You'll be glad you did! Thanks Shaina and Jeff!
