Terminix
Reviews and Complaints
Don't trust Terminix, they wants to Tent my house for $3500 for two 1 inch termite on the tip of my patio.
I called Terminix to give me an estimate to do a Termite inspection since I am selling my house. I needed one fast.
I told the lady who answered that I have an account with them for pest control and that I like to get someone to come out to do Termite inspection, I also told her that I need it ASAP and if there is an opening today that I will appreciate it. The lady came back and said "sorry we can not do it today and it will be $150 for the inspection for tomorrow." I told her that if I have to wait till tomorrow, I already have an appointment with another company and that can do it for half the price, which is true. I thanked her and called to confirm my appointment with the other company.
Well, not even an hour later, Mr Jimmy Phu, who claimed that he is a senior Field Inspector, said that he can come in a couple of hours and he can do it for $75. This is where I was stupid enough to accept. This was a red flag and I should've declined it. of course the $75 is to lure me in and then he will hit me with the big tag.
And that is exactly what happened!
Facts: My house is build in the late 2004 and is in like new condition.
My outside large patio is not even 5 years old and I did termite inspection last year and my house was clean.
Mr Phu came to the house and after the inspection, he said that my house was very clean, no signs of termite inside the attic, or the interior or the garage or around the house. However, he said there are two 1 inch spots on the very corner tip of the patio, about 11 feet away from the house, have termite. He said you can paint or spot treat it but we have tent the whole house to get rid of the termite, just in case they went through the wood into the house.
Gentelment, this guy has given me an estimate for over $3000 to tent my house for a stupid piece of wood that has two 1 inch spots of drywood termite and is about 11 feet from my house. He said he will not give me clearance unless I tent the house! I was flabbergasted! I would accept a $100 spot treatment, or to change a $15 piece of would or even replace the whole patio for that matter but to tent he house for $3000 is way too ridiculous. My advise is never trust Terminix! They are highway robbers and will do anything to get your money.
If you want any info and to show that I am not making this up, you can email me and I will send you the quote and some pictures that I took for my patio and the two spots.

Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution
False Advertising and Blatant LIES
Terminix said they would take care of all the pest issues I had. I wanted to treat before the pests became a problem this year and was told terminix guarantees they take care of all pests.
They ended up blowing off 2 scheduled appointments and when they finally did show up they refused to take of the bees! I had bumble bees and wasps in the backyard and they refused to take care of the problem! This company should NOT be in business! They do not treat for bees and will find any excuse in the book!
They are absolute liars and a mickey mouse company! You people have been warned DO NOT TRUST terminix they will lie about everything to get you to sign up and then provide ZERO SERVICE!
BUNCH OF *** ARTISTS! They 100% engage is false advertising and BLATANT LIES!
- Blatant lies
- False advertising
Preferred solution: To be investigated for false advertising practices, blatant lies, customer manipulation, etc.
Appiontment
Rod at Terminex made an appointment when I called about pest control at my house. They would be here between 1PM and 5PM, no one showed. I called Rod back,"it was set up wrong". Terminex misses out on me as a new customer. Who Cares?
The competition does.

Terminix Pest Control Review from Chicago, Illinois
Terminix does not stand behind their brand / guarantee
We have work being done in our kitchen. Our contractor noticed termites and ant damage and hundreds of bugs.
Called terminix NOW 3 times and no call back, no service person out to visit. Window must be replaced before we can continue with kitchen remodel and we don't dare replace window because the bugs will move elsewhere. We have had terminix for several years and this is a huge slap in the face to a long time customer. We need this addressed ASAP.
Holding up our contractors and costing us money each day. We need this window replaced and the bug problem remedied immediately.

By law no pest control company treats bees unless they're in the structure. Bees are protected by law cause they're needed in the environment.
You're the *** and you don't want to listen to a professional.
Also, you can't control bees in a yard anyway. There is no treatment method for treating swarming insects.
you should be ashamed of yourself for wanting them to treat the bees. Do you realize this would is going to starve to death if we keep killing the bees. What an *** you are.
Another terminix employee that doesnt know ***! The only protected bees are honeybees!!
The rest r worthless pests! So get ur facts striaght before talkin *** what an *** u r for being a terminix ***!!
