Encon, LLC

Ask a longtime customer why they've stuck with Encon and the answer is often a specific tech's name — Sean, Ryan, Dennis, Mike — someone who shows up on schedule and explains what they're doing. Encon, LLC is a family-owned pest control company headquartered in Cranston, Rhode Island, serving Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Connecticut; it says it was founded in 2006, though its site elsewhere claims '30+ years of industry experience' — the two don't line up, so take the exact tenure with a grain of salt. In a March 2026 review, one homeowner described a spring mouse infestation resolved with traps placed carefully around the house; more recently, reviewers mention seasonal mosquito and tick treatment that lets a family use its backyard again, and a technician, Dennis, walking a customer through safely cleaning up after a rodent removal because of hantavirus risk. In a 2025 review, a property manager overseeing more than 800 residential units said both the office staff and technicians have been professional for several years running; another customer, in a 2025 review, described roughly 15 years with Encon after moving into an old house near wetlands with year-round bug problems. Google shows 200 ratings at 4.9★, and Angi and HomeAdvisor each show 4.8★ from 350 ratings. Two complaints stand out among all the praise. In a May 2026 review, a customer said they explicitly asked not to have entry holes sealed — so trapped rodents wouldn't die inside the walls — and the technician sealed them anyway, leaving a bad smell for a week; that's worth raising directly if you have a similar request. In a 2022 review, a customer described spending nearly $1,400 on treatment, having the problem return, and being told there was no warranty coverage left to help. For routine pest control, seasonal mosquito and tick treatment, or a rodent problem, Encon's long-tenured customers and named technicians point to reliable, explained-as-they-go service; if trapped animals are involved, say explicitly how you want entry points handled, and confirm what's covered under warranty before the job wraps up.
