Q:
Do you get rid of bumble bees?

Unfortunately bees are protected and need to be handled by a beekeeper company
Pest M., Business Customer ServiceQ:
Do you have any way of getting a outside fly problem under control?
A:
We would first need to figure out what is attracting them. Do you notice any smell or have anything that you have around the home that is old or need to be cleaned out?

Beware!! Rip off! I contacted them about a wasp removal service. The original quoted range was $125 to $450 (see screen shot attached). When I talked to the guy on the phone and I described the issue (wasp nests under the roof, there's 3 small ones I can see), he said the range is 100-400 but for the job I described probably on the lower end, maybe around 200. When Joshua came to the house the guy said it will cost $850 and if we don't want the service it's a $150 fee for just showing up. My husband countered him for $450, which he accepted immediately. I still feel this is an unreasonable rip off! Charging twice the price of the high end of the quote!!! And our house is single story (not even very high at all), so how much more "tricky" than originally described can it get!? Absolutely unreasonable. I would not recommend this company to any one!!

Each year, our rental gets hordes of ants. This is the second year we've used PestMed. They did such a great job last summer, and we did not see any ants return for the rest of the year.
The office staff is very friendly, kind, courteous, and helpful. We were able to schedule an appointment within 5 business days.
We received a text message to confirm the appointment 3 days in advance, and another day-of when our technician was on the way. This gave us plenty of time to prepare our house for the most efficient and timely service (removing all hanging items like towels, robes, etc., lifting curtains, putting away food items, moving furniture that can be moved away from the walls, and moving all outside things against the house away from the walls.
Michael was dispatched to our house, and he was the nicest, warmest, most genuine person that you could ask for. He was patient with my questions, and super courteous and polite. He even asked if he should remove his shoes upon entering!
He completed the indoor and outdoor treatment efficiently and thoroughly. Safety was of utmost concern, and when doing the outdoor treatment, he requested that I wait in my car to protect me from spray / fumes.
Afterwards, he told me everything was finished, and that I could return in 4 hours. The whole treatment process took less than an hour.
I cannot say enough great things about PestMed. Thank you, Michael, for keeping us ant-free this year!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - Travis H.Fremont, CA031Aug 21, 2024
An excellent service. Quick to respond, knowledgeable and efficient. My day has already improved. I will definitely inquire here if I have another ant infestation.

I requested pest control services. Ants were everywhere in and outside of my home. Pest Med quickly responded. Their work was completed professionally and with care. The price was reasonable. Michael was polite, kind and patient. I recommend Pest Med for any pest control services.

I worked with Omar and Michael recently for an ant and spider problem. They were super responsive, knowledgeable and detailed. As a first time homeowner, there's a lot of education and patience they provided. They'll be my go-to from now on!

I had contacted them for rodent issue. They were quick to respond and come out and set the traps and retrieve them, but the inspection rep did not do a thorough job of checking the rest of the house and simply focused on the area of concern. I had to switch companies to get a more thorough check and exclusion done. Michael however was understanding of this situation and was quick to process the refund for the issue.

PestMed was recommended to me by a friend. I loved the teams honesty and competitive pricing. We live in a condo that is beautifully shaded by massive olive trees and other gorgeous landscape. Which leads to nature invading our deck and entryway. When pestmed learned it was a condo, they shared concerns of not treating the entire building. I appreciated their honesty. They came out, and we saw immediate improvement. I found them to be customer focused and quick to respond. Will call again.

This is an update to my review that I posted about a year and a half ago. I've been using PestMed on a quarterly basis and ever since I started using their service, we now have zero ants in the house. Every hot summer here in San Jose. We always get a lot of ants in the kitchen. I got so bad 2 years ago where it was spreaded throughout the entire house.
Josh from PestMed came by today and did another quarterly spray for us. Super nice guy. Very easy to talk to and very professional.
Since I've been using them for a while, I have referred two of my friends with their service and they have reported to me that they have zero ants during the summer time. I guess summertime is when the ants come out of the ground when it's too hot for them.
Thank you very much Josh and Michael for everything again. Wishing you guys much success with your business.
I highly recommend this company. Great prices and the main important thing is there are results!!Helpful 0Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 2Sep 4, 2022Previous reviewThis review is long overdue.
We've had ants at our 2 story home in the past few years and somehow this year was the worst. The ants pretty much invaded our home. They were in every single room of the house including the bathrooms. For the most part the house is very clean. On a germaphobe so I always vacuum several times a day. So I can't say that the hands are coming in due to our dirtiness.
One afternoon we had a friend from Hayward come visit. They came the right day because that was a day when all the ants were everywhere. They said hey, why don't you try hiring an exterminator. And I said no it's okay because they're expensive and I just spray with the stuff I buy from Home Depot. I spray every 6 months with the stuff I get from Home Depot but apparently it does not work. My friend that came to visit had a lot of ants at their house as well but ever since they started the treatment service with PestMed they have no more ants. And I mean zero.
They recommended pest man and they said they are very affordable and the best thing is you don't have to have a contract with them. So I decided to give them a call and I spoke with Josh on the phone and he was super nice. He explained everything step by step and I was very worried because I have kids and he said that it is very safe for kids. There was no pressure at all when I was on the phone with him and basically I end up signing and having them come over to spray inside and outside of the house.
Now let's talk about customer service. The day they showed up. They did notify me in advance that they were running a little late. The guy that came was Michael. Super cool dude and he was very professional. The first sprayed inside our house and he wore the blue booties to keep our house clean without me even asking.
After he sprayed the house he sprayed outside. I was outside waiting for him as he said we have to vacate the home for a minimum of 4 hours after they finish spraying outside.
I made the payment with them using my credit card. Again. Michael was really nice to talk to and he told me that they have a 30-day warranty. If I see any ants in the house within the next 30 days then they will come back and spray. No questions asked.
Fast for 3 weeks later after their initial spray we still had a few ants in a house. And I mean just a few. Before we had probably over a million throughout the entire house. So I called and I spoke to. I believe Josh on the phone and I told him about the ants that we had in the house. Without me even asking. He said we'll come out there and spray again and definitely get rid of the ants. Honestly, I was a little skeptical in the beginning because you know most companies would do the bait and switch. They would tell you one thing and then when you call them they were going to say no. Sorry, just a few ants. We're not going to come back and spray it for you, but they were very easy to talk to you and I felt no pressure from them.
Overall the guys I met Michael and Josh are super nice. They're very professional and I would highly recommend the service to anyone that has tons of ants or roaches at their house because they do all that stuff.
Again, the best thing about them is you don't have to sign a contract with them. But after having good results and the excellent customer service, I'm going to sign up with a 3-month quarterly plan with them.
Thanks again Josh and Michael. If you are reading this, keep up the great work and best of luck to your business!!! - Jan 6, 2023Updated review
After leaving this review, I'm happy to report that the company contacted me about my concerns with the cost of my service. They sent someone out to reassess what had been done and refunded me $600. I think this price more accurately represents the work that I had done (plus the 1-year warranty). This is a good example of the power of Yelp!
I was impressed with the company's professionalism and by their genuine concern that I was happy.
No more rat noise in my attic, so they did a good job.Helpful 8Thanks 0Love this 4Oh no 1Dec 26, 2022Previous reviewThis was my first time hiring a pest exterminator. I suspected there was rat activity in my attic, so I contacted PestMed to come out. I was impressed with the presentation given by Damien, the tech that I'd be working with. He was very thorough in explaining the process and I decided to go ahead without getting any other estimates. In hindsight, it was a mistake to not compare the pricing of other exterminators.
Although the process Damien described sounded extensive, in reality, it only takes probably less than an hour. My house is quite small (around 900 sq ft). One rat was caught and with the possible entryways closed, there's been no further activity. I have a one year warranty in which they will comeback if there is any further activity. My cost for this was $1900. I find this extremely expensive. A hard lesson on my part.
