Budget Pest Control

Outstanding! Can’t say enough about Mike’s professionalism and customer service. We had a rat in our house for weeks that we weren’t able to catch. We had big companies coming and they weren’t able to help us. Mike came the same day that I called, he must have heard the desperation in my voice, and did a thorough inspection. He told us how and where to put the traps (we have dogs). After weeks of the rat roaming our kitchen, we caught it within days of Mike’s visit!!!
What shocked me was the fact that he refused to get paid. Said he has a family and knows how it feels.
Thank you so much Mike for your time and effort.

I contacted Mike Hernandez for bed bugs problem in Jan. Left him a message on a late Sunday’s evening. The next business day (Monday), he returned my call and offered a consultation. I thought it would take Mike a few days to come. He showed up 4 hours later, then performed a thorough inspection. Mike confirmed and explained that it was not bed bugs, but they were carpet beetles. It was a huge relief! Furthermore, Mike did not charge me any money for his time. What? Other companies demanded upfront fees to speak with them in person. I appreciate his professionalism, honesty, and sincerity to help me resolve my problem. Folks, I’d highly recommend anyone with pest problems to contact Mike first. Budget Pest Control offers service with integrity.
Thank you, Mike.

I had a bug problem and found this pest control with good reviews, so decided to call. Mike returned my call later that day and asked me a bunch of questions about the issue. A few days later he came to my apartment and took care of the problem. He is professional, reliable, friendly, and his products work. I needed him 2 months after treatment after seeing a bug, and he came the week I called. I was even at work and left him my house key because I feel he’s trustworthy, he did the job. Thank you Mike !

I had a questionable cal, l from a mattress delivery person, that my old mattress had a bedbug problem. I was 95% sure I didn’t but called and talked to Mike. He was close by, inspected the mattress, as it was outside, and told me the bedbug problem was non-​existent. Thank you, Mike.

I’ve been using Mike’s services for our home for several years now and just had him come out again toady. Whenever we’ve had a pest problem, he has been the go to guy. Always very professional, assessing the situation, explaining what he will be doing, and letting you know what other problems he found during his visit.

We had some cockroach issue in our rental property. I found Michael from Unilocal and decided to call him based on some of the reviews i read. Michael replied my call promptly and we setup the meeting. He was on time and very responsive. He explained to me reasons for the cockroaches (coming from outside) and started working on spary etc. right away. His prices are reasonable and he also gives 60 days warranty on his work. I would highly recommend his services for any pest issue. He is also a great guy!
Thanks for your help Michael.

I had just come back from a week-​long vacation and one morning when I woke up, I saw red, itchy bumps all over my calves! Thinking it was the usual bug bites every normal person has, I dismissed it. Until the numbers kept growing…
Suspecting the possible case of bed bugs, I decided to look around my mattress and saw these black little bugs that crawled around. I FREAKED OUT. I quickly called Budget Pest Control with the hope that I can get someone to come by and check out my bed.
Mike Henderson returned my call in about 10 minutes. We talked on the phone for a while as he asked me some basic questions, like my finding of the critters, if I traveled, had I done any home treatments already, the whole nine yards. I was expecting to make an appointment with him sometime later in the week since he told me he was booked, but instead, he said he would stop by my house in about 30 minutes since it was on his way to his next appointment.
If that isn’t great customer service, I don’t know what is. And right on the dot, he came by, put on some booties, and did an inspection of my bed. Because it was such short notice, he probably didn’t have enough time to do a VERY thorough inspection, but I was relieved when he said he didn’t think I had a case of the bed bugs but rather fleas. YUCK!
He then left me his business card just in case I needed his services after utilizing some more home treatments (sprays and whatnot), but I really hope I won’t. Overall, I was very pleased with Mike’s quick response to my problem and his assurance that my bed is perfectly fine. Thank goodness for that!

I had a bad ant and roach problem in the backyard the day before my Son’s Birthday party, couldn’t find anyone to come out last minute especially on a Friday afternoon. When I called Mike at Budget he knew I was desperate as we had a big party to throw the next day and even though he was booked for the day he still made the trip out to help. Mike showed up and did his thing and let us know if we have any issues to just give him a call. A+++ QUALITY SERVICE! Will be using again!!!

After posting this review, I did got a phone call and he explain why he haven’t got back to me.
He did offer to come out and spray again if needed.
I will observe a few more days and decide on that. At least he did finally call back.

I consistently use budget pest control whenever I have a issue at my home. Mike is efficient and gets rid of the problem the first time. Don’t hesitate to give him a call.

Mike is just awesome! We had a serious black ant problem. We called him for help and now the problem has gone away completely! Mike is very prompt with his appointments and is always available to answer any questions, even days after the service is completed. All at a very reasonable price. For all our pest needs, we will always go to Mike!

Tenants moved out of property, but left unwanted pest. home was infested with two different types of roaches. Mike came out for the rescue, as I had new tenants lined up for move in. He is strongly recommend by me. He is type of person who does what he says, not too many out there like this.

We had some serious wasp issues… many nests, etc.
Michael was prompt, knowledgable and very pleasant. He came out later that day and the following day, sprayed and knocked the nests down.
Looking forward to working with him in the future. Zero complaints on
this end!
Highly recommend!

The very best thing I can say about Mike is that I will definitely call him in the future to get rid of any pests around our house. Mike is totally professional, thorough and best of all, honest.
Mike came out to get rid of our flea problem, and he sprayed inside our house and in the front and back yards, but I told him he didn’t have to do the inside of the garage (he offered) because I didn’t think the fleas were there and it was packed (and embarrassing!). Just like Mike said, give it about 10 days and the fleas should be gone, which they were, except they were in the garage! Arggg. I called Mike and he came out, checked things around the house and sprayed our garage without charging for the extra trip. I offered to pay because he was coming back out to spray where I told him he didn’t have to, but he said no. Wow, talk about service!
Also, I have a few friends who have their pest guy come out every 6 months to do «maintenance» spraying, so I asked Mike if he does that… now this would’ve been an easy ongoing job for him to line up, but he said he didn’t think I would need it! I wasn’t expecting that at all. Honest and gets the job done! Thanks, Mike!

Mike is so professional as he came tonight to help us clean every dangerous things in our backyard and garage, I wanna give him 100 000 stars if I can! My husband called him this afternoon to tell him we had wasps’ nest, and he came to save us (lol) tonight, and found a lot of black widow in our back yard around the wall, thats terrible, because we have a labrador and she always plays there and sometimes sleeps in the backyard inside her dog house, I can’t imagine what would happen if we bite by that terrible spider!!! Fortunately we found MIKE on Unilocal,he helped us a lot! AND WE WILL ASK HIM TO HELP IN THE FUTURE! HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PEST CONTROL COMPANY TO EVERYONE WHO NEEDS KEEP YOUR HOUSE CLEAN AND SAFE! THANK YOU SO MUCH MIKE!

This is 6 months overdue.
Mike is AH-​MAZING! Seriously — my hero. I don’t know what I would do without him in my life. Wait, yes I do… I’d be killing critters!
6 months ago we moved into a house we were renting and I saw my very first cockroach in the garage… and then I saw a ton more. I was traumatized. Called mike and he zipped out super fast! He explained a bunch of stuff about roaches that I may or may not have been paying attention to because I was too busy watching these nasty little jerks crawling up the walls as they tried to get away from the good stuff Mike was spraying everywhere. 5 days later, next to zero roach activity. Score!
While he was here, he smelled gas. He asked me for soapy water and found the leak in the water heater. Let us all remember that he is an exterminator. Talk about going above and beyond!
Fast forward to today. We are yet again moving and there is no way I’m bringing any bugs with us, so I called up Mike to have him spray the garage. He was here in 30 minutes. This kind of super duper customer service is hard to come by these days. Not only is he very accommodating and effective, he is the nicest guy in the world. I would give Budget Pest Control a million stars if I could!

I thought my house was settling with the very quiet and indiscreet noise I kept hearing in the attic when I realized one night it was not the house settling. I heard a lot of commotion in the bathroom walls one night so it is then and there I realized I had rats.
I call Budget Pest Control and Mike was able to make it the next day. He came out and inspected the perimeter of the house and then he went into the attic. Where he found a couple of holes where the rats were coming from.
Mike made some suggestions on how to fix the holes and told me that he didn’t think his services were needed as I already fixed most of the problems already.
His inspection is free and so is his recommendation. I started to fix the holes in the attic until I fell off the ladder and fell 15 ft. on my back. Bad news! My hole fixing days are on hold, but Mike was honest and straightforward. He came back and fixed all the holes on the roof for a very reasonable price.
Oh yes, Mike is one contractor in a million… one of the only ones that wears little booties to keep your home clean. Thanks Mike!

This was a learning lesson as Mike told us about why ants appear. He told us his process for eliminating the ANTS. He came into the house with booties so he’s not dirtying the floors.
We had Mike return in 2 weeks when ants were still appearing. I mean, trails of ants and you could see the Queen Ants!
— The first visit he sprayed along the outside and inside of our home
— Second visit he set out baits but had set out some Terro bats since the ants were still out of control (nests were sitting inside our walls).
He mentioned each house has a different situation and our home did have A LOT of ants! We’re now in week 4 and no more trails. Although, there are some ants randomly scouting here and there but I am feeling much better than a few weeks ago.
It’s not way to live if you can’t leave your trash and some food out.

We were getting a new fancy bed and when they came to remove the old bed they found bed bugs! Yuhck no way!!!
They seemed dead and old but just to make sure we needed someone to come out asap and look into if we had signs of bugs!
Mike came out the same evening … Sprayed the room and also advised us that we need to patch up pipes and spray for spiders and roaches.
He came back the next day set up traps and sprayed the house. He also came back the next day to check the traps.
One minus star for always being late :) but I know he is super busy!
Mike is great and also sooo reasonable :)

How is Mike, the owner of Budget Pest Control, wonderful? Let me list the ways…
–My husband called him at 12AM on a Saturday night and we were lucky enough to see him within 30 min. Who DOES that? THIS GUY
–He is professional, knowledgeable, and gave great tips on preventing future problems.
–He charged us a reasonable price (actually super cheap for the things that he did) to take care of our problems (initially, it was a mouse, but then he found black widow spiders)
–His methods for solving our serious problems were quick and effective.
–He’s so funny! He made my husband and I laugh so much when he finished his work. I don’t know how he kept calm about everything while I was busy having a nervous breakdown about rat/​mouse AND black widow spiders.
Here’s my long story:
At about 10pm on a Saturday night, my husband distinctly saw a mouse scurry in our bedroom from one furniture piece to another. I was really hoping that my husband was just imagining things until I saw the mouse myself while we moved furniture away from the walls. There it was… hiding under our kids toys (which we’ll soon be throwing away). We tried to box it in (stupid us) and I saw it dart a few times against the cardboard boxes. Then, I freaked out and it scurried under our dresser. Later, we saw it climbing the wall about 4+ feet!
Frantically, we called every phone number we could google. Nobody was open or on duty to save us from this nuisance. I Unilocaled late night pest control and saw another Unilocal review mentioning how Mike from Budget Pest Control took a house call emergency at 11pm. I practically cried of happiness when my husband said that Mike was coming to save us.
When Mike arrived, he first inspected our garage and backyard and pointed out easy access areas for rodents to enter the house. Whats worse, his flashlight found huge SEVERAL BLACK WIDOW SPIDERS. I actually saw them with my own eyeballs these huge black spiders with the red splotches on the thorax (?). I was getting flashbacks from my biology textbooks! YIKES! Both my husband and I saw the spiders with our own eyes (the spiders are nocturnal so they were easy to see at 1 AM). We have little children and dogs. Since their spider bites are/​can be lethal, I could not believe my luck that Mike helped us out with the mouse and the spiders immediately.
After he sprayed the spiders with poison, we checked our bedroom again to see if the traps caught the mouse. Sure enough, my husband confirmed seeing the mouse caught by the traps and taken care of by Mike. I’m too chicken to see a mouse wiggling around. Hearing the mouse squealing was already too much. But, it was still a relief that Mike helped us out.
Not only did Mike immediately lower our blood pressure by taking a mouse away, but he saved us from multiple medical bills and emotional distress that WOULD have occurred if my husband, me, my kids or the dogs suffered from a black widow spider bite. For what he charged to help us out, that fee was A BARGAIN.
Mike, my husband and I thank you SO MUCH for coming to our house late a night and being wonderful. This is only one review, but we will write many more if needed. No worries about referrals. My big mouth will surely tell everyone I know about your fantastic work and professionalism. Feel free to call us for a yearly reminder about black widow spraying next year!!! :) We are loyal customers to honest, hardworking people who know their stuff!!!
