  10. Save your time and money and don’t call them they don’t show up to appointments they tell you they won’t charge you for it but .. They don’t bring the right equipment and then they tell you to call another company because they can’t handle the problem after wasting a month and a half. And then they try to bill you for not doing anything

  11. Gunter Pest Control is the ONLY company I call when I’m in need of any kind of pest control. Leo is our tech and he is wonderful. He had sprayed for all the spiders, and other varmits and a few weeks later we found a spider which we thought …

  12. Gunter has been doing termite and pest management on our commerical properties and personal residence for years. They have trained technicians, always answer the phone at the office and provide prompt, courteous service. We have also used their lawn division services with equally satisfied results.

  13. Not great. Used in the past, but this year they messed up our first appointment. A week after our expensive treatment we had major ant issues. I called and was told that we had to pay more for another treatment. I understand if it was 6 months later, but 1 week? Clearly something wasn’t applied correctly. Will not be using again.

  14. We have routine service. The service people are personal and friendly. The personal relationship is important to enjoy work together. The life is good when you are around people who care. Jesus loves you

  15. I had a contract with another company that called every year to set up a my yearly appointment. They were great. My contract was then sold to Gunter and I was told that my contract would be valid with them. Yea. Well, they came back the first year and I’ve never heard form them again. I guess the renewal phone call was the problem.

  16. We use them both for pest control and our lawn service (weed control, etc.) Overall they’re pretty good. John (our pest technician) is the reason we keep coming back to them. Their prices are reasonable and the work is good.

  17. Hands down, BEST pest control company I’ve worked with in my 20-years in the apartment industry. The technicians are extremely knowledgeable and offer exceptional Customer Service! Thomas has exceeded our expectation to the point that our residents want us to hire him! Keep up the great work, Gunter!!

  18. Ben was our service representative from Gunter. He called ahead to advise us he was on his way to the house, he was on time, and he was courteous and gave a thorough explanation of his work. Gunter has been consistent in sending competent and respectful representatives throughout the years we’ve been with them. They’re a class act!

  19. We have used Gunter for 8 years at two different houses, and they have always done an excellent job! No bugs! And when mice found a way into our house built in 1905, Gunter responded right away and took care of it. They have always been considerate of us as their customers! They are the best!

  37. The inspector was very thorough in examining our home’s perimeter for termite evidence, none found. He then moved through the basement, main floor and then the garage. Again he did not find any evidence of termites. Very good effort! Thank You!

  38. These guys are amazing. On time every time. We have never never had to wait. We have had several staff members work with us and they have all been super patient with all of our questions. From the back office staff to the technicians who arrive, everyone has been great to work with.

  39. Gnats yuck and now they are gone! Not achieved at first but Gunter did not give up and came subsequently at no charge! As only a reputable hometown great company would do! Thank you so very much!

  40. Lance spent time with us answering questions and making notes of possible further action on the interior of our home, even though he was here to check our termite system. So glad we signed up for Gunter’s maintenance program.

  41. Jessie was very thorough and even offered to come back Saturday if there was still a problem. I just wish I’d been told on the phone he wasn’t authorized to pull dishwasher out because I believe that’s where ants are coming from. They’re still here just wandering aimlessly and fewer in number.

  42. The workman entered our home with no mask. I didn’t let him in and he was just finishing by the time I came inside. Companies need to make sure all employees wear masks when entering a person’s house.

  43. Appreciate the heads-up the day before coming to provide service. Corey is courteous and provides information when we have any questions. Our lawn really looks good since we switched to Gunter.

  44. Technician was fine. Thought he would perform an inspection to look for evidence of mice versus just placing traps. I probably could have gone to the hardware store and bought similar traps for less $.

  45. I just moved to this house last summer. The previous owner had a contract with Gunter for termites. Gunter never reached out to me to ask if I wanted to continue the contract. They also didn’t contact me prior to coming out. They came out …

  50. I can’t recommend this company enough. Friendly, professional, and truly a pleasure to deal with–from talking to office staff over the phone to the technicians who visit our home, I couldn’t ask for a better experience. We’ve used them for 9 years now and recommend them to everyone we know!
