Here are some of the highlights of my experiences with Orkin
-unwanted flirting on multiple occasions
-cancelled first treatment over a closet 9 feet from my son's bed ("I can let this closet go, and this closet too, but not that one")
-told me when I was pretty sure I had 15 bedbugs that it would take 6 months of treatments; that was about 6 months ago and I still have them
-multiple treatments scheduled and prepped for, and then cancelled (seeing bites, bugs and bug poop)
-gloves used to apply insecticide left on floor for my cat to find and chew on
-2 different items ripped
-my mattress across the room, on the floor, had been clear; infested thereafter
-bugs spread and increased in # after most treatments (I was tracking them)
-cardboard covered glue trap wedged under my heater, risking fire
-implied I had Cockroaches, and said cleanliness & prep were poor
-applied spores ONLY to baseboards, first time with them; I asked if I should be steaming furniture more than once and was told "no"; "bedbugs travel along baseboards 100% of the time" the agent said, defending his actions
-has cost me $700-800, just including laundry, replacement steamer, bags and bed
-I recently gave up on my bed, because 2 months after first spores, I still had 10 in it; I bought that this past summer, so I could sleep without pain.
- Approximate cost of services:
- $750.00
