| - Do you have roaches? I don't. At least not anymore!
All you Vegas old timers have kept the roach epidemic a closely guarded secret!! WTH? Being new to Vegas I had no idea how prevalent roaches and scorpions are out here. I live on the mountain's edge so I literally get the worst of them... spiders and crickets too. I saw a deal for these folks on Living Social last fall ($15 for 2,500 sqft.), right about the time I no longer needed pest control, as it was getting cold. However it was valid for 6 months so I scooped it up anyway.
I waited until the very last week the deal was valid before calling to schedule service, because it was just starting to warm back up. Jennifer was very kind, and I could tell I was working with a small family owned business, which I love to support. She told me that they only make it out the the Southwest part of town 1 day a month. She said she'd still honor my voucher (even after it was expired) if I could make that day work. A little inconvenient, but not really that big a deal. It happened to be 3 weeks out, but I was glad it would be a little warmer by then (so far I'd only seen one roach, and I figured and I'd need the service more in a few weeks anyway).
They called the day before to remind me of the appointment, which I appreciated. But they showed up almost an hour late, I assume that's because they try to fit so many SW appts. into one day. They were in and out in 5-10 mins. kind and friendly service. The spray is dog and kid friendly, not that I have either but GTK. I asked about pricing for future needs and I was told $25 for the size of my home. A good value since I generally pay $40.
For only $15 I wondered how good their spray would be. But the very next day I started seeing dead roaches outside my door and in the garage - got them buggers!
I noticed they have a Yelp deal you can purchase too. I'll definitely call them again in a month or so, but I'm sure I'll have to wait again to get an appt. in my area.
