Fox Pest Control South Burlington holds 4.7 stars from 450 Google ratings, and lists a service area of Bolton, Burlington, Charlotte, Colchester, Essex, Fairfax, Hinesburg, Jericho, Milton and Richmond. A recent customer says hundreds of yellow jackets were inside the house, and that Fox came out the same day they called and again the same day when they called back a few days later for a follow-up treatment. That customer says they were a little leery of the subscription model and price, but values that the company will come back as many times as needed. A recent reviewer says John's initial treatment took a home from a ton of ants to none. A recent customer says Jon found several possible entry points for mice and explained and worked to rectify them. A recent reviewer says Dan identified mayflies that had puzzled them for 18 years and took care of carpenter ants. A 2026 customer wrote that Damon walked the entire interior and exterior perimeter and reassured them about product safety for a blind dog. A recent Google reviewer says the company called with less than an hour's notice for a quarterly visit they had not scheduled, during active rain, and that the agent framed their objection as refusing the appointment. A recent reviewer notes the company does not guarantee the problem will be solved on a one-time service. A 2025 reviewer said that after several treatments the insect issues were the same or worse. A 2025 reviewer said the company used high-pressure sales tactics to get an elderly mother on a fixed income to sign up for a plan at 9pm, and that cancelling was easy. A 2025 r/burlington commenter wrote that the contract is a 2-3 year deal with a $250 cancellation fee. An October 2025 r/burlington commenter wrote that its yearly plans carry absurdly high cancellation fees for work not even rendered.
“Fox pest control is a very scammy company. They try to entrap customers in yearly plans they don't need that have absurdly high cancellation fees for work not even rendered.”
“he also left out that the contract he makes you sign; is a 2-3 year deal WITH $250 CANCELLATIONS FEE.”
“Wow, a Fox guy came to my door in Vermont today. same spiel”
“Fox Pest Control”
“Sales pitch was confusing and pushed to get me to sign up on the spot for a whole house treatment. Also, kept lowering the price. No business card or material to offer.”
Tyler does a great job. He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and kind. The service works great to keep the pest numbers down. Highly recommend.

Fox Pest Control called with less than an hour’s notice for my quarterly subscription service. I had not scheduled or requested this visit. It was actively raining in Vermont, my yard was saturated with standing water, and all outdoor surfaces were wet. When I objected to applying the treatment under these conditions, because liquid residuals need dry surfaces to adhere and provide lasting control, the agent tried to reframe it as me “refusing the appointment.” I was not refusing service; I was declining an application that would be diluted, run off, and ineffective given the heavy rain and soaked yard. I am paying a high rate for a functional barrier, not a wash-off treatment. The combination of unsolicited short notice and attempting to proceed in an active rainstorm, then mischaracterizing my concern, is unacceptable!
The service is excellent. Been with the company for a few months and just got my second service. Happy to say we are bug and rodent free. John was awesome and very informative. Can't thank him enough.
John was so helpful! I appreciate how they only use the best materials that are safe for people and pets yet effective in taking care of pests.
