Orkin's Williston office handles household pests from mice to carpenter ants, and the company's own site says it offers next-day scheduling in Williston, Vermont. On Google it holds 4.6 stars from 998 ratings, and its BBB page is an A+. A recent customer said Nick does a thorough inspection and explains what needs to be done and how often. A 2026 customer said Norm came a few hours after they called about ants in the kitchen and put on protective booties before working. A 2025 customer said Norm took care of a bald-faced hornet nest and removed a smaller nest on the side of the house. Scheduling and billing are where things went wrong for some households. A recent customer said a confirmed appointment never happened because the sales department never put it on the service department's calendar. A recent customer on a quarterly plan said the first bill came to over $220 because of an initial service fee that was not explained, and that the plan billed five times a year. A recent customer said the wasps were back after two treatments costing over $300. A recent customer in Franklin County said the tech never showed up for appointments at their barn in Montgomery Center, and they switched companies.
“Forget Orkin. They take your money and never respond to your calls or messages. I had to cancel my credit card because they wouldn't even answer the phone so I could cancel my account. Meanwhile my kids got stung repeatedly.”
“Fox is a franchise, owned by Orkin.”
“Honestly? I use Orkin. I’ve had great luck with them. I had carpenter ants in the exposed beams in my master bedroom, and they f’ing fell onto my face while I was sleeping. It was not fun. Orkin comes back every two months to make sure I have NO pests. Mice, bugs, spiders, etc. $50 a month.”
“vs paying Orkin $130 every other month...”
“The Orkin Man rocks! We noticed fleas and turned out mice were bringing them in. I signed a one year contract with Orkin but after 3 months, the mice and the fleas were gone. The first visit included an inspection that identified the entry points where mice were coming in.”
Nice work. Clean and efficient.
Orkin has done a great job managing our mice problem.
Nick does a very thorough inspection. He communicates with me to let me know exactly what needs to be done as well as the frequency. I also like the report I receive when everything is completed! Thank you Nick!
Contact was excellent, service was immediate, informed provided was thorough. We await the results!
Orkin no-showed for their appointment. I called and spoke with someone who said I would get a call back today... I haven't heard anything. I schedule the appointment, received a conformation email... and then no one came. I called and asked what happened - it seems the sales department never put it on the calendar of the service department. I'm flabbergasted that they still generated a confirmation email. We waited for nothing. I was told a sales manager would call me today - that never happened. Get it together, guys. Jeesh.
