Webs back in less than a week

It’s been just a week and I already see new webs around the front of my house. It’s concerning and makes me question is the person spraying not spraying correctly or is the spray not sufficient.

Excellent personal communication

I received notice ahead of time from Aptive regarding which day they planned to come. On the day of, the tech texted me with the arrival time. I wasn't home so he sent photos of where he'd sprayed. I appreciated the extra care.

Marrissa is very friendly. She listened to my pest problems and treated them accordingly. She said the company was out of some inside ant treatment, but she gave me a recommendation for a commercial brand.

The provider was prompt and kept me updated of arrival time. He immediately checked the traps in the attic and sprayed the exterior of the house and yard as appropriate.

This is the 3rd review I’ve submitted. Ridiculous! It’s why you have 4 instead of 5 stars. Y’all don’t check your own work IRT services. SMH

Communication is key

I appreciate getting a notification the day before my service, that way I can move away clutter and make sure the tech can get where they need to go. I double appreciate getting a text from my tech on the day of service asking if there are any specific requests or areas that I want treated. I love that they care for my specific needs instead of just a generic spray and go. Thanks Tasha.

There has been only 1 service

There has been only 1 service, “the initial service provided” by Aptive! However, I have been charged for 4 services!
their Customer Service Manager “ please have management listen to my telephone call yesterday” would not credit me for the charges when Aptive did not perform the service! The Customer Service Manager would only credit me for 1 charge and offered me a $50.00
credit. This is absolutely insane. It appears Aptive wants me to pay for services that I’m not receiving! What makes this whole thing worse for me is that I can’t cancel the agreement , which I would like to do due to the poor and nonexistent service. But as you know, If I do, I will get charged $199.00!

They had one job

We continue to have ants. It's been a year. After each treatment they say it may take a couple of weeks for the ant to stop invading the house. But that hasn't happened. I hired them to do one job and they failed.
Their sales techniques are tricky. They came door to door with a nice worker saying they're already working with your neighbors. They make you sign a long term contract with a penalty to leave early. After I just signed up they used my name to convince one of my neighbors, i.e. Alan uses us and you should too.
They send text messages that they're coming and a couple of pictures after they're done. This is nice but I'm paying to get rid of the ants which they haven't done.
