Termites will eat any kind of wood material, from floors to furniture to pictures on the wall. Every year, they attack about 4 million homes in the United States, and cost over $5 billion in property damage. Termite damage is more common than damage caused by storms, fires, or earthquakes, yet it is rarely covered by homeowner's insurance.

If you're looking for a knowledgeable, proficient, and friendly pest company Amco Ranger is the way to go! From the initial encounter everything was smooth and easy. We recently moved to a pretty rural area in a log home so we have everything from your typical insects and spiders to carpenter bees and more. Chris & Gabe were both super awesome and you can tell they truly care about meeting their customers needs and explaining everything in depth!
I am so glad we decided to go with Amco Ranger for our pest control needs and can rest assured knowing we can count on them to do a thorough job within a reasonable price. If you're looking for a company to use. RUN. don't walk. they will have you taken care of. Thank you guys! :

Have been using Amco for years and am always happy with their service! Steve took care of a recent pest issue and was so helpful in explaining all about household pests. He was super knowledgable and took the time to really inspect the house. All of the technicians I've talked to have been friendly & great to work with! Service: Bug & insect extermination

When I noticed a few bugs that looked to be termites, I called a company that has been around a long time, scheduled an inspection. I was told I had termites and it would cost about $3000 for the treatment I needed. So I asked around and I was referred to Gabe with Amco Ranger. Gabe offered to come by that evening but I wasn't going to be available then, so he came by the very next morning to inspect my home.
He was extremely knowledgeable in his field. Also very polite and professional. After the inspection, it was determined that I did not have termites, but rather "ant swarmers". Similar looking bugs but Gabe explained the difference. We went over a treatment plan that is DRASTICALLY lower in cost than "the other guy". I'll have my treatment done AND I'll be treated every quarter throughout the year for $500! So happy I contacted Amco Ranger for my pest removal services. Highly recommend this company.

Steve came by during the initial service. He was very professional, informative, gave tips, told us what to watch for, what to expect, and what is considered red flags that we would need to reach out to Amco about. He even explained what to expect during different seasons for certain pests. After he treated my home, he walked me around the house to see what was done and how quickly some pests were already responding to the treatment. You can tell that he has been doing this for quite some time and he is proud of his work. Highly recommend this company.

Wanted to provide a short message to recognize and thank Matt, the technician, for his professionalism and extra care he provide my wife and I during his last service call. Specifically his willingness to listening to understand our issues and for doing such a thorough job treating own home. While we are still on are journey to finally rid the home of these pests we did see a significant difference after the treatment.

Dave kept constant communication and gave us a 15 minute notice before he arrived. Unfortunately, we were not at home and he offered to stay and treat the outside while he waited for us to get there. This meant a lot that he was willing to wait a few extra minutes. We are new customers but so far we are impressed by their customers service!

Our tech, Gabe, was professional and knowledgeable about the issues we were having around our home. He had a trainee with him and I was impressed by all the steps he was showing to do throughout the visit. They were both very kind and personable. I was very pleased with the service.

I contacted Amco Ranger inquiring about services, as I live near a forest and water. Gabe came out to inspect the house and start treatment. He was so knowledge and extremely professional.

We went with Amco Ranger based on the positive reviews we saw online. I can say that, by and large, the staff was professional, courteous, and responsive, both on the phone and in person. So those are positives. There were, though, two significant negatives for us. One, the only products they seem to push are one-year contracts paid out in one-month installments.
Those contracts - which include both a fairly large startup fee and a recurring monthly fee - add up to several hundred dollars. In addition, if you cancel early there is a cancellation fee equal to half of the remaining balance. If you pay up front for a contract and later discover the problem is gone, or that their work isn't solving your problem, you've potentially lost a lot of money.
They don't really talk about one-and-done services when they visit, so customers are likely to feel compelled to get a more expensive contract to get services. Also, keep in mind that while the contracts pay out monthly, workers don't necessarily come out every month and don't necessarily check everything they set up every time they visit. Two, while their site suggests they deal with just about every kind of nuisance, we discovered, the hard way, that there were exceptions.
We had one of their inspectors out because we were hearing sounds inside our wall. He quickly concluded that it was probably mice. We weren't sure based on the noise, but he was the professional, so we followed his lead, and got the 1-year contract he pitched to us. By chance, a couple of months later we saw birds coming out of a spot in the house very near where we were hearing sounds, and realized that was likely our problem.
When we called Amco, though, we were told that they didn't deal with birds - they told us they were too difficult -- and there was nothing they could do to help us. Keep in mind that we had a 1-year rodent contract at that point, but there was no way to transfer or otherwise get help on our bird problem. We eventually cancelled our contract, losing some of our money in the process. Overall, our experience wasn't terrible, but there are definitely some things to keep in mind with Amco.
If you go with them, you'll most likely be told to go with a 1-year contract. What's more, you will want to be sure they take care of the animals you might be dealing with. For termites, mice, and moles, you're probably okay. But if it's something else, you'll want to make sure you ask.

I wanted to take a second to say thank you to the Owner of Amco Ranger in Cottleville Drew Mannino. We have been Amco customers for about 2 years now and have always been satisfied with their services. In fact, this was a terrible summer for mosquitos and we had them out on several occasions because of this. Not only did they come out, but the made sure to get to the root cause of the issue and make sure through their follow up that we were 100 pct satisfied.
The reason I am writing this review is because of something that happened on December 6th 2017. The technician had visited our home that day, and by mistake he happened to leave our gate open to the back yard. We discovered this too late as our 3 dogs, 1, a brand new puppy were gone. The good news is after searching for awhile, the dogs were all home safe.
I wrote an email the next morning to Drew, not to complain so much, but to remind his techs to make sure they latch gates this time of year, especially with the winds we get in the winter. Not only did he write me back quickly and assure me that he would talk to his staff about the importance of closing gates all the way. A few days later we received a package at our door.
It was a bark box filled with doggie toys for our fur babies. Drew didn't have to do this, and that was not the reason for the email to him. But he proved to us that his company truly cares about customer service and is dedicated to our customer experience. Thank you Drew to you and your team. We will continue to be loyal Amco customers.
