# Gladiator Pest Control

**Trade:** Pest Control · **Address:** 40 Water St, North Andover, MA 01845, USA · **Phone:** (978) 397-3271 · **Website:** http://www.gladiatorpests.com/ · **Languages:** English

**Rating: 2.6/5** (low confidence) — from 4 reviews across 4 sources.

## The honest read

Gladiator Pest Control is a small, sole-proprietor pest control operation in North Andover, and its written record is short and split down the middle — two accounts of a job done well, two of real problems.

In a 2019 review, a homeowner describes a national pest control company failing to clear a bee infestation in their attic, then calling Gladiator — manager Brooke sent technician Julio out the next morning, and the account is glowing. A 2023 review is a bare five-star "BEST," with no detail. On the other side, a 2022 review describes a mice-and-cockroach job in an apartment where droppings turned up the very next day, and a 2024 review reports a missed scheduled treatment and two weeks of unanswered calls, with the reviewer wondering if the company had closed (a later note on that same review says the same technician, Julio, was back).

The BBB lists the business as non-accredited with an A+ grade and no complaints on file, and it's been around about seven years — but with only four written reviews total, there isn't much of a pattern to lean on either way.

Worth confirming directly that a scheduled visit is locked in and getting a callback commitment, given the one account of a missed appointment.

**Strengths:**
- Bee removal success — customer credits Julio after another company's failed treatment

**Concerns:**
- Missed treatment — a 2024 review reports a skipped appointment and unanswered calls
- Incomplete extermination — a 2022 review found mice droppings the next day

- **1/5 · Google Reviews · Sarah Hansley · 2022-07-29**: I would give this company ZER0 stars if i could. They were supposed to do a mice and cockroach extermination in my apartment and literally the next day i found mice droppings on my stove. They did not do thier job correctly.
