We have used Monitor Pest Control for our rental properties for several years now and have always received great service. The company is timely and thorough with their work and their owner Dan is easy to work with. When I call, he typically answers the phone himself or is quick to return a voicemail. Fair pricing, good service and quality work. Highly recommend!

Report
Just getting ready to renew my yearly contract and could not be happier with this service. When we moved in 2 years ago, we inherited a roach issue. I tried 2 other services in the ATL area over the course of our 1st year in this house- neither really corrected it. I was still seeing 2-3 roaches a month and I am Terrified of all bugs (yes, with a capital T). I was frustrated and fed up with the "service" level of the other companies and tried Dan with Monitor- best decision I could of made.
He came in July 2019 and I didn't see any bugs at all until Nov 2019- which was already a vast improvement. He has not had to come since that last Nov appt, there have been ZERO bugs. Best part was he didn't even spray in my home! All chemicals were applied to the exterior which makes me feel safer. Its now a July 2020 and we just had a small roach drop out of the attic - which is typically our issue area since it has the open venting for the roof and the fact that the structure is a town home. Texted Dan and he immediately called back and advised he can come as soon as tomorrow. I really appreciate the quick, no nonsense turnaround and reply.

I checked yelp this morning to find someone who could take care of our multiple wasp nest issues at our new home. Dan was the only one with all 5 star reviews- so it was a no brainer! He called me quickly and was able to come to our home the same day! He was thorough, explained the process, and educated us on preventative measures we could take in the future to stop wasps from building nests. After he left, we noticed one or two nests we hadn't seen earlier- he came back immediately with a smile! (what a trooper)
I cannot recommend Monitor Pest Control enough!

I really appreciate Dan and his customer service. He is honest, transparent, professional and a super cool dude. When I initially switched, I called him on a Tuesday and he was at my house by Friday (he would have been here earlier if my scheduled allowed). He did a synopsis, sprayed my house on the outside and inside and I have to say, the results are MUCH better than the old service I use to use. His once a year concept makes sense and it definitely saves time considering the old way I use to schedule my pest control service. Don't hesitate to call him.

Dan was friendly, straight forward and informative. He made mention of the other services he offered, but was in no way pushy about them. He treated our house the day after we got a hold of him. We didn't have any problems that needed to be treated but we wanted the preventative measure. I like the once a year aspect of this treatment. It is also encouraging that should any problems occur he will make it out within twenty four hours to assess and solve the problem.
It was nice to talk to Dan as he treated our property. It encouraged me that I had made the right decision that through our conversation I learned that his focus is on maintaining top level customer service. He doesn't plan on rapid growth at the expense of his costumers. It is nice to have someone who understands that the best way to grow a business is to stay customer centered.
