Two Google reviews, two one-star ratings — that's the extent of the independent track record right now for this Cambridge-based pest control and wildlife-removal company. Secured Environments says it's a locally owned, small operation with 40 years in pest management experience, working across Greater Boston, the South Shore, and Providence, RI. It also lists a stack of trade credentials — GreenPro and Sentricon certification, QualityPro accreditation, and an Associate Certified Entomologist on staff — plus a run of local "reader's/community's choice" awards from 2021 through 2025. The two ratings on Google back up the low score rather than looking like a fluke. The more recent one, from this spring, describes a bed bug treatment that took six minutes total, left several baseboards unsprayed, and skipped the inspection step the company's own process is supposed to include. It isn't an isolated complaint either — an earlier review raises a similar concern about getting clear, consistent answers out of the office. Before booking, it's worth asking exactly what an inspection and treatment visit covers and roughly how long a job like bed bugs should take — the one detailed account on file describes something far quicker and thinner than what the company advertises. The credentials point to real technical training, and the business has apparently been around for decades, but there isn't yet an independent record of satisfied customers to weigh against the two negative reviews on file.

    Absolutely atrocious. They came two hours late, and refused to walk me through what they were going to do in my home, where and what they would spray. Spraying for bed bugs took them 6 minutes. Six. I had interceptors on the bed and only some of them turned yellow (from the poison) meaning crucial parts of the bed weren't even sprayed!!! They didn't even spray all of the baseboards. It was wild seeing the negligence and incompetence. They missed multiple critical steps they commit to as part of their service, include #2 on their website, "Inspect", they did not inspect the property at all, and #3 on their website "Identify", they did not identify the root cause of the problem. I'm still left in the dark. And when I called to get more info from customer service, a rude manager intervened on the call and told me to stop asking them questions. They wouldn't even disclose what poison they use, so I can know how long its residual effect is! Complete ripoff and shoddy business practices.

    YUCK. These folks were hired by our condo’s management office and it seems to be a disfuncional business and a toxic work environment: one person says one thing, another says something else, and another gets upset when we mention the contradiction! We just want to know our options regarding "organic" pest control in our particular situation, that's all. We tried talking to the owner to ask about our options and it was a massive waiste of time—only non-answers came out of the mouth of this condescending lady. Oh well, we’ll take our business elsewhere 🤷
