Johnny B's Pest Control

Johnny B's Pest Control is a South Boston shop, a division of the family-owned B & B Pest Control, which the company's site says has served the region for a combined 43 years. It's owned by John Bozarjian Jr., who the site describes as a licensed and certified exterminator with more than 20 years in the trade, and it handles the usual residential mix — ants, bed bugs, rodents, and wasps — across Boston and the surrounding towns. Google shows 5★ from 83 ratings, and BBB gives the company an A+ grade, though it isn't BBB accredited. What stands out across the reviews is speed: customers describe same-day or next-day scheduling, and a 2021 review recalled Terminix failing to show twice before Johnny B's had someone at the door in 20 minutes. Bed bug jobs come with a callback if the problem returns — a 2022 review described a free re-spray months after the first treatment — and another 2022 review said the company guaranteed a yellow-jacket removal for six months. The record isn't entirely clean: in a 2023 review, a customer said rats were still in the house after service and rated the experience 3/10. It's the only negative account on file, among otherwise consistent five-star reviews describing technicians who explain the treatment plan and seal up rodent entry points as they find them. For a straightforward ant, rodent, or bed bug problem in the Boston area, the response speed and guarantee policy make Johnny B's worth a call — if rodents are the issue, it's worth asking what happens if they're still around after the first visit.
