The Lowell Pest Control Guys

Every October, millipedes on my enclosed porch. I sweep them up morning and night and my daughter finally said Mother this is ridiculous, you are eighty-one, call someone. Well I called, and I should have listened to her years ago, but do not tell her that. A nice young fellow treated all around the porch and the foundation on that side of the house and explained they come in when the weather turns. This is the first October I can remember without a single one of those things on my porch floor. I sit out there with my coffee and my crossword in peace. Money well spent.

Heads up before you call, the arrival windows they give you are wide so don't plan around it. I was setting this up for my mom who is 79 and lives alone in Lowell. She had spiders in the basement and a cricket got upstairs which made her call me at 9pm freaking out. Told her I'd deal with it. Booking took two tries. First call went to voicemail and nobody called back for like three days. Called again, got a real person, but the soonest slot was almost two weeks out. Mom kept texting me pictures of everything spiders in the meantime. Anyway by the time the appointment came around we were in that stretch of cold rainy weather Lowell gets late spring where every basement smells like a wet sponge, probably not helping. Tech was patient with her which matters more to me than the actual work. Did the basement, slab outside, garage. She said he answered her quesitons and didn't push any monthly plan on her, which I was watching for. Pricing felt fair for what he covered. Mom hasn't texted me about anything crawling in three weeks. I'll take it.

Tech was super informative. Explained the whole process and what to expect. Made me feel like I was in good hands.
