Yesterday, one of the *** reps visited our condominium community Peninsula at ************* in ***********. He tried to get homeowners to sign up for pest control services by claiming that others had already signed up and that we could split the costs. In fact that by not signing up, I was causing my neighbor to pay more. He gave this spiel to multiple homeowners.He claimed to have permission to come on our private property. Another lie. I wish that I could provide a negative star

This company has an A rating with the BBB. That doesn't say much for the rating system the BBB has. I've had my service with Fox Pest Control for a Year. The first issue I had with the *** was last year when the service Tech Treated the outside of my home in a pouring down rain that lasted all day. I felt sorry for the guy but also was thinking there is no way the treatment would not wash away. I called and they came back out and treated again. Within a couple weeks the wood boring bees were back. fall was near and the bees would be gone, also the next treatment was coming up. The tech that sold me the plan said they could treat for the wood boring bee without killing the honey bees. A concern for me. this was the first Red Flag and I should have canceled at that time. Thru the fall and winter I didn't see much difference in their service and what I had been doing on my own, as far as the ants, spiders and other bugs. I was paying $60.00 a month think I would see a much better job than what I was doing. that didn't happen. Final straw I got a notice that they did a treatment 05/25/24 I didn't see them do a treatment. I have cameras around my house, I looked at them and no one had done a treatment. The picture of the house was not my house. I replied to the notice twice saying no treatment was done at my house. I got no response. A couple days I got a customer survey. I gave a 1 star and in the remarks said no one treated my house. I got a reply saying it would be forward to my local service rep. and they'd be contacting me. Almost a month later I had enough. I cancelled the service. I was charged $250.00 and paid it. I was also told it was my responsibility to call and reschedule the treatment that they said they did. I replied twice to their emails and once to their survey, when I was told some one would be getting back with me. $720.00 in service payments $250.00 because I had enough. ****** learned. This company is not the way to go. Buy Beware.Fox Pest Control HQ

Hello ****,We apologize for your unsatisfactory experience. I have reviewed your account and refunded your early termination fee. It appears our technician mistakenly treated the wrong home during your last scheduled service. Our office previously offered to send out another technician to remedy this, but the offer was declined. Your account has been closed as requested, but if you later decide you would like to resume service, please give us a call. We would love to work with you again and better meet your expectations.Sincerely,********************Customer Relations TeamReview fromValdet Z

This company sold me a **************** promising that they will come out to the house every 2 weeks. the best part is that the ******************************************** never disclosed their Termination fee of $250. I was never informed about that. I have been trying to cancel this service where they charge monthly of $57 but no luck. They won't even release the name of the rep that I initially spoke to, so that tells you how ethical they are. I will file a complaint with IL **** of *********** right after this!Fox Pest Control HQ

If you know this rep's name, please call our office so that we can address it with him.

The sales rep who knocked on my door told me they use all organic treatments that won't harm any non-targets. Their website tells a different story about the pesticides and rodenticides they use. The ingredient in their rodenticides is harmful to birds of prey, wildlife and even cats and dogs if those non-target animals come in contact with a poisoned rodent. The rodents don't die right away, either. It takes at least a few days so they are still running around. I worry about neighboring outdoor cats in addition to the beautiful hawks I see flying over our houses. I did not sign up but others on my street did when they were going door-to-door. I'm disgusted and heart-broken.Fox Pest Control HQ

Hi ******, We appreciate you sharing your concerns with us. We offer both Organic and Traditional pest control services. The products used with each type of service differ, and we do our best to educate our customers so they fully understand the risks and benefits of each service type. When traditional products are used, our technicians take every precaution to ensure non-pests are not affected. For example, rodenticides are placed in special boxes that are designed to only let rodents enter. If you would like to learn more about ways we protect wildlife and pets during treatment, please call our office and ask to speak with one of our Service Managers.Sincerely,********************Customer Relations TeamReview fromEileen B

We are extremely dissatisfied with the Fox Pest Control that serves **********, **. Shortly after we purchased our home last summer, a representative showed up unannounced to explain that our home was due for a treatment in about a week, as a continuation of the previous owners service. We spoke with him at length about our concerns about rodenticides because we have cats that sometimes **** and may consume rodents, as well as the fact that it is detrimental for other predators and ******* eaters, especially threatened and endangered species of birds of prey. He assured us that they would not use rodenticides.In February, we took the time to read the technicians notes after the treatment, and were horrified that they had used a rodenticide, and had also used one in the prior treatment, which we were not aware of. We called them, and they sent out a technician within a day or two to replace the rodenticides with traps. Today, they treated our home again, and once again, they used rodenticides, against our wishes, which they had noted in our account during the episode in February. This is absolutely unacceptable, and we have canceled their services permanently. We will look for another pest control company with integrity that actually listens to their customers requirements.Fox Pest Control HQ
