A recent Thumbtack customer who reached out on a Friday night says Rick was there at 8:30am Saturday, as he said he would be, for a hornet nest in a roof soffit.

A recent Google customer who hired the company for a mice problem says the technician, Daniel, inspected the areas of concern, explained possible entry points and walked them through treatment and prevention. A recent Thumbtack customer says Rick treated both the inside and outside of the home and explained ways to lower the cost of ongoing service.

Amazing experience. Prompt, efficient, patient. Explained everything that was being done and why. Purchased an annual plan. Highly recommend!
Very informative in their initial responses and then provided effective job.
Rick was here within 3 days of contacting him. Texted me when he was 30 minutes away, very friendly and professional, and got rid of my yellow jackets!
I hired Robbins Pest Services for a mice problem and had a very positive experience. Even before I confirmed the appointment, they were very responsive and took the time to answer all of my questions and concerns, which I really appreciated. The technician, Daniel was professional, knowledgeable, and thorough. He carefully inspected the areas of concern, explained the possible entry points, and walked us through the treatment and prevention process. He was patient with our questions and made sure we understood what was being done and what to expect afterward. Overall, I was very happy with the communication, professionalism, and quality of service. I would definitely recommend Robbins Pest Services to anyone dealing with a rodent problem.
Our tech was wonderful, responded promptly, service early the next day, educated us about what to expect and offered to return if the problem persisted after treatment. I would highly recommend him.
