Outstanding Service from Start to Finish!
I had an excellent experience with Black Dog Pest Solutions! From the moment I called, the he was professional, knowledgeable, and responsive. The technician arrived right on time, explained the process clearly, and was very thorough in inspecting and treating the problem areas. He used safe and effective methods, and I appreciated how respectful he was of my home.
What really stood out was the follow-up; he checked in to make sure everything was going well and answered all my questions patiently. I feel confident knowing my home is pest-free and in good hands. Highly recommend him for anyone looking for honest, reliable, and effective extermination services!

Been meaning to write this. Look no further ….THESE are your guys!! I had talked to the owner and he assisted me on the phone. Took care of my issue by phone. Put my mind at ease. Talked me out of a black dog treatment I thought I needed….unbelievable.Called the company again for another issue raccoon on my roof every night at 3 am. Zach was exceptional no pressure kindest gentleman. Took time looking over my roof. Took time explaining the process. But It was THE WAY he explained everything…put my mind at ease.Talked me out of a black dog treatment then I insisted. It took a little time and I kept seeing Zach’s footprints in the snow as he came to my house. Cannot say enough about Zach, this company and will continue to use. Reasonable. Trustworthy. will not have you purchase treatments you do not need.

I can't recommend Walt highly enough! From the very beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly kind. He took the time to thoroughly assess the situation, answer every one of my (many!) questions, and made sure I understood exactly what was going on without ever making me feel rushed.
What impressed me most was his honesty and integrity. Rather than trying to sell us on expensive or unnecessary treatments, he genuinely had our best interests at heart and recommended only what he felt was truly needed to achieve the best outcome. That level of trustworthiness is hard to find these days!
Walt's patience, expertise, and commitment to doing what's right made a stressful situation so much easier to navigate. If you're looking for someone who is honest, experienced, and truly cares about helping their customers, I highly recommend Black Dog Pest!!

I can’t say enough good things about Black Dog Pest Control company!! They were able to get someone out next day to deal with our wasp issue. I’m severely allergic (had streaking edema and double calf size after one episode), and have been afraid to prune my marigolds by the nest.
Ryan, their technician, was super friendly and honest. He did a perimeter sweep to check for more wasps and explained how his service worked. You could tell instantly after he sprayed that the wasps were feeling it! He even told me about a service they offer for quarter spraying that I’ll definitely be utilizing. Can’t wait for these little buggers to be off my garage.
Bravo, Black Dog Pest Control! ❤️

We've had a collection of some nasty bugs this year; ants coming into our home more and more, and 3 hornet/wasp nests in our siding that were becoming unsafe and getting out of control. I corresponded with Mat via email and was quoted a fair price to take care of all issues. Zach came out, who was a pleasure to talk with as well, and within an hour or so took care of all the issues. Several days later, not a single bug. Will certainly use them again if the need arises. Kind of like insurance; hope you don't need it, but when you do, it's good to have.
As a follow-up, went had routine service every 3 months, and it has been stellar.

Excellent experience!! I contacted them because we get spider infestations every few years. Got a text back, as requested, very quickly. They were flexible with scheduling, answered all my questions, and arrived promptly. I got their location mixed up, but even though I'm all the way on the east side he had no problems coming out. Really nice of them!! Very professional, very helpful - extremely respectful of the house. AND - super important for us - when he came out he asked about pets to make sure that everything would be okay with them. We have 2 dogs who will eat anything, so the fact that he asked right away was awesome. The treatment was very safe, but I really appreciated that consideration. Did a great job and spiders are no longer falling on me whenever I open a door. Definitely one of the better experiences I've had with any home service - highly recommend!!

I’ve used many pest companies throughout the years mainly due to bees out on the deck and around the house.
The majority of the time other companies do an ok job, except when there’s an issue with an errant nest or missed areas and the bees returning. That’s when you need a company that will respond when you call, and handle the situation quickly (especially with events at the house with family and friends coming over.)
I switched to Black Dog about three years ago and have had excellent service since.
They’re familiar with my house and deck and have been very thorough and professional.
Most importantly though when we’ve had any issues in between treatments they’ve responded promptly and followed up immediately…… it’s very rare to find this type of personal interest in customer service these days, and I’m lucky to have found this company.

I can’t say enough good things about this yellowjacket nest removal service. What started as an outdoor nest quickly turned into a nightmare when the yellowjackets somehow made their way into the house—I started hearing them inside the walls and saw them flying around the living room. It was terrifying, having them in the home.
I called for help and got a fast response. The technician arrived the same day, assessed the situation thoroughly, and immediately found where the nest was located outside and inside. They took all the necessary safety precautions and handled the situation with calm professionalism.
If you're dealing with yellowjackets—especially if they’re making it inside your home—don’t wait. Call these pros immediately. They know exactly what they're doing and treat your home like their own. Highly, highly recommended! Thank you Zach!

We’ve had a positive experience overall with this pest control company, especially thanks to our technician, Walt. He is extremely responsive, professional, and genuinely helpful. Whenever we’ve reached out, he has been quick to reply and willing to come out to address concerns, even for issues beyond our original service call.
While our mice problem has unfortunately not been fully resolved yet, it’s clear that Walt has tried every reasonable approach and has made a sincere effort to help us. He has been patient, thorough, and easy to work with throughout the process, which we truly appreciate.

Recently we heard some scratching so we called Black Dog regarding rodent services (traps, house sealed, etc.). When they came out an inspection was performed and no signs of activity were found inside. The house looked fairly sealed up aside from a small spot in some broken siding (which was a likely spot for chipmunks). This being the case we were informed that the rodent service would be an unnecessary expense. The small spot in the siding was sealed up free of charge and they wished us a good day. We haven't noticed the noise since.
We had already resolved and were happy to pay for a proactive solution and would not have questioned in the slightest whether or not it was necessary. It's rare to find caring and honest people these days and I can say with certainty that if and when the need arises Black Dog Pest Solutions will be the call that we make. They've earned a customer for life.

Whenever your people come the spiders are gone and insects are gone! Anything we see hours later is dead. A few weeks afterwards we notice that we haven’t seen a single insect inside our house. Ryan is very professional and flexible with scheduling. I got the days mixed up and he still came over today. My exact household needs were targeted by the service provided and each person is punctual, and sincere about wanting to help with what the issue is. Thank you Ryan for working with our crazy work schedules. My son can sleep now in his basement bedroom no spiders!

I recently found I had a yellow jacket problem after getting repeatedly stung doing yard work. I called Black Dog pest solutions on a Friday afternoon and they scheduled me for first thing at 8 AM on Monday morning. They even said they’d be able to come out sooner if it was an emergency. Gerald was prompt, professional, and let me know to wait a couple of days and to give them a call if any returned & they’d be back out to spray again. The cost was also very reasonable. $195+ tax vs. Orkin’s quote of $327. I’m very happy with the service I received & will use them again if I ever need them.

Walt is the best! He's always quick to come out when you need him, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his customers. He's friendly, professional, and takes the time to thoroughly identify the problem instead of rushing through the job. He explains what he's finding and focuses on providing the right solution, not just a quick fix.
I really appreciate his honesty, knowledge, and dedication. It's hard to find someone as reliable as Walt, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for excellent service.

Black Dog is a wonderful pest control company. My technician, Walt, is friendly, courteous & professional. He has treated my home for ants, and once treated, the problem is quickly resolved. You will get timely service & great results with Black Dog Pest Control.
Pesky ants returned in the bathroom a few weeks later, and Walt came back the day after I called. He continues to be a kind & helpful technician. There was no charge for this visit. Black Dog guarantees its work for a few months. I appreciate that!

Gerald is a professional, well versed, knowledgeable gentleman. He made it his fiduciary duty to take his time and explain in detail what he was going to do about the hornets, what to expect and how long the process would take to get rid of them.
MAD DOG didn’t come out to do the job. However, I was blessed to have Gerald to take his place. I admire the company that keeps Gerald and I will never do business with any other extermination company.
Thank you MAD DOG for your expertise!!!

I called Black Dog Pest Solutions to remove two hornet nests. One under the front porch and one at the back porch. Matt came the same day unaware that I have a serious anaphylaxis allergic reaction to bee stings. He was prompt, professional and wasted no time completing the job. It feels good knowing I can walk out of my house without an intense fear of being stung by a swarm of bees. No more shopping around. The next time I need pest control, I'll be calling Black Dog! Thanks Matt!

I thought I had fleas, but It turned out to be fruit fly infestation. Walt helped me find the food source of the fruit flies. Simply disposing of the fruit fly food source and performing cleaning solved the problem. I insisted on paying, but he said there was no charge. He spent 35 to 40 minutes and didn’t use any material, but I still should’ve paid him for this time. With service like this, I strongly recommend both Walt and his firm. If there is a next time…I call nobody else.

Black Dog was recommended to me by my HOA. Walt was early, very courteous, kind, and professional! He evaluated my situation, and set some rodent (eeekk!) traps around my deck and property. I was able to get on their monthly maintenance plan so they can monitor the situation and adjust any actions accordingly. I'm now having him come back to do the inside for summertime coverage of insects and what not. He's always on time, very courteous and very knowledgeable!

Had an amazing experience with black dog pest solutions. Had a bee problem on the side of my house which needed removed. I'm allergic so I had to find somebody to come and remove it for me. I came across black dog since they are local and from the time I messaged for a quote to the time they came out it was literally less than 45mins. Walt did an amazing job, was very thorough and explained everything amazingly. I would definitely use them again and refer them to anybody who has any pest needs.
~ Brian B
They were quick to respond. They were polite. They were fast to set an appointment. They are reasonably priced. Update: We needed a follow up service as the pests moved to a new place in our home. Again, the response was swift. I am so impressed with the service man that we got. He is knowledgeable. He is concerned about the health and safety of the homes residents. He is so very personable and professional. We will be scheduling more service with this company.
~ DeEdra B
My experience with Black Dog Pest Solutions has been excellent from scheduling my first appointment to the service provided by Gerald, the technician. Gerald explained everything about the services provided, including the plan for removal of the yellow jacket nest in the front of the house. He was personable, knowledgeable and really put me at ease about the services provided on an ongoing basis.
~ Linda B
Walt has been over at our house in the past for insect issues. But this time we have a mouse problem. He's also been at our daughter's home for both. Each time, he's been great and very professional. We gladly recommend him and the company!
Update...stopped over again to check the bait traps...found one had been nibbled on, but no mice. No sign of them in the attic or basement. We really appreciate his continued consideration for us!

I was serviced today by Gerald. He has performed routine quarterly service many times at my house and I love his work. Living near woods and a river, I have to deal with ants, bees, spiders, and one annoying woodpecker. Gerald takes his time to assess the best solutions for multiple issues and is thorough in his work. I recommend Black Dog Pest forbyour service and Gerald as your Field Technician. 5 stars!
