Big Blue Bug Solutions is the Providence pest control company with the rooftop mascot: a 2021 article on pbs.org showed that mascot wearing a mask at its Providence, RI location, and a 2021 article on artscanvas.org said the idea for the termite came from founder Leonard Goldman, his son Stephan and their outside advertising man. The company says on its website that it has been in business 91 years. On Google it holds 4.8 stars from 2,032 ratings, and its BBB grade is A+. A recent Google customer said they have had routine pest control with service man Aaron for several years, and that he serviced their basement and their garage. A customer of more than two years wrote on Google that the technicians have been on time and knowledgeable, that they appreciate the immediate service inspection report, and that the service is a little bit pricey. A recent customer said Matt F answered all their questions before and after service at their home. On r/RhodeIsland, a 2023 commenter said they had a yearly deal under which the company came quarterly to reset and re-bait traps inside and outside the house and treated for mice and other bugs. A 2025 commenter said a year contract for general pest control, covering bugs, mice, ants and bees, cost a little over $500. A 2025 commenter wrote that the technician who handled their yellow jacket nest asked to keep it for his collection because it was so big. Some Reddit accounts are critical. A 2025 commenter who had used the company for a few years said its price is high and that it is reactive. A 2022 commenter said the company took pictures of where mice were probably getting in but refused to fix those areas. A 2026 r/providence commenter wrote that a rep named Juan pushed open the gate of their private, gated backyard and came in.
“I was in my backyard (fully private, gated, with signage) with my partner setting up a ladder when one of their reps, Juan, just pushed open our gate and came in”

“Between media coverage and social media impressions, this year’s lighting of Nibbles Woodaway — Big Blue Bug Solutions’ iconic termite mascot — was viewed by a record 1,591,060 people in Rhode Island and around the world.”
I have had routine pest control with Service Man Aaron for several years and in fact request him. Yesterday he did an excellent service in my basement as well as my garage.
10 out of 10. All of the service technicians have been great to deal with - efficient, on time, speedy, knowledgeable, courteous. I appreciate the immediate service inspection report. Office is always easy to deal with for scheduling, billing, etc. It's a little bit pricey, but per the old adage, you get what you pay for. As a customer for 2+ years, I have only had 3 service inspections each of the last two years and in Sept '26 the 1st inspection for year 3, but good to know I have their coverage and expertise if any issues do occur.
Aaron did an excellent job. Great communication before and during the treatment.
Matt F just serviced my home, he was super knowledgeable and answered all my questions before and after service.
I hired this company in Spring of 2024 to remove bats from my attic, and despite multiple visits and significant cost, the problem has never been resolved.We continue to have bats in the attic, and recently one entered our living space.
