The worker Pete was really well informed. He knew exactly where to look and what to do to get rid of them. The company also has a 90 day guarantee policy . Pete also had a great sense of humor.

My experience with Bug Runner was top notch! They alleviated my concerns about a hornet’s nest, answered all of my questions and provided additional insight into “red flags” to look out for in the future. However, they don’t try to sell you on any other services like I’ve experienced in the past with other places. I truly felt like they listened and provided the best solutions possible. I highly recommend them!

Honest and always provide exceptional service!! After tree removal, we discovered that we had insect swarms on our property. The tree company recommended an insecticide sold by Home Depot - where the store rep said, You need Bug Runner: thats who we use!And a decade ago we had an infestation, and Bug Runner recommended that we go directly to the specialty store to buy DE that we could administer ourselves. Very impressed that Bug Runner chose to do right by their customer, rather than go for a sale of services we really didnt need to pay for.And Jessica is extremely helpful, informative, and generous with her time!

My husband discovered that we had a yellow jacket nest in the wall of our bathroom. Alarmed by this discovery, I called The Bug Runner. Doug, the owner of the company promptly came to assess the situation. His friendly disposition, competence, and knowledge were palpable. He look at the site and promptly started to work and exterminate the nest, inside and out. He explained the process and we felt confident, that the situation was remediated. Thank you, Doug, for you expert, fast, courteous, and efficient service. It is much appreciated.

Bugrunner just came to help us with ongoing mouse prevention service. A situation with yellow jackets making a nest by our front door had just come up and the representative dealt with it on the spot! He was efficient, professional, nice to work with and cleaned up after himself beautifully. This was really great service!

Doug and his team are extremely knowledgeable, professional and timely; as well as accessible and honest. We had questions about the initial issue (ants) which were answered promptly, honestly and dealt with so needless to say they’ve become our go to for all pest issues. Latest with hornets. Doug answered all questions, tech came out to inspect and when he deemed safe of nests advised to continue to monitor as opposed to applying unnecessary chemicals or selling us something we didn’t need. We tried others, always disappointed, before finding Bug Runner and won’t have to look any further.

There was an outbreak of yellow jacks in my home and over-the-counter products did not work. Peppermint oil and lavender scent did not stop them for long. My sister saw great reviews of Bug Runner on the Next Door website.Doug (the owner) came out to my home and immediately found the nest right on top of my deck. He sprayed the nest and took care of the problem. Doug stated that it would be a few days before they disappear. After two days the yellow jacks were gone. I am truly a satisfied customer and I highly recommend Bug Runner for their professionalism, great service, and affordable price. Well done Doug!

Review №34

My husband and I had an excellent experience with Bug Runner! After having another pest control company unsuccessfully resolve an ongoing issue with wasps and yellow jackets inside and outside of our home, Bug Runner was highly recommended by several family members who have been using the company for years. Bug Runner responded promptly, setting up an appointment for the following day. Doug was extremely professional and knowledgeable, and his personable nature made him easy to work with. It was especially helpful to have Doug walk us through every step, from identifying the source of the problem to eliminating the pest issue. Doug also provided us with realistic expectations that it may take a few days for the situation to be fully resolved and advised us that he would come back if the problem continued beyond that point. Doug came to assess and treat the pest issue on Friday, and just as he said, the situation had significantly improved by Monday! Thanks to Doug and Bug Runner for your fast and effective response!! We will definitely be using Bug Runner for future pest control issues! We have also recommended to our HOA that they consider contracting with Bug Runner if the opportunity should arise! 👍🏻

Review №37

The bees nest is in a tricky spot inside the pipe cover of my wood stove (on the outside of the house) & theyre getting inside the house, otherwise I would leave them alone. Bug Runner had to come back a second time & retreat at no charge. Hopefully, this does the trick. They are responsive, professional, knowledgeable and affordable. I would definitely recommend them.

Review №43

Bug problems aren’t something we get excited about. The Bug Runner is a fantastic service that provides quality, safe, visible solutions. Got a massive hornets nest outside your bedroom window? They got you. Lady bugs, ants in your pants, and the occasional roach. We don’t have any bugs anymore. Even better, the lead Bug Runner guru, Patrick, is a cool cat, listens, remembers your home, and approaches his job with a diligence that is top notch. If he ever wants to switch careers, I would hire the guy.

I have been using Bug Runner for the past few years to monitor / eliminate a termite problem at my mom’s home. They have checked the stations as outlined in the contract and have been very responsive when I have had questions. As of recently we have had a mouse problem as well... we are in the beginning stages of taking care of this problem as well... so far so good.I would recommend Bug Runner to anyone that has to deal with these pesky bugs / rodents.

Doug is super fast and reliable for setting up the termite traps. In terms of assessment, he was honest with the pricing and the work that needs to be done.

No body does it better that BR. Been dealing with them for over 40 years and would not trust anyone else. We recently discovered termites and they were here the same day to evaluate and in just a few days set up all the stations for remediation. A few years ago we had bed bugs and again they were here as many times as we called, even brought the dog. GREAT COMPANY AND GREAT PEOPLE

Review №58

For the longest time, my Dads house saw a mass of ants, each spring. We tried the sprays and the traps, but were unsuccessful in getting rid of them. Out of frustration, I decided to reach out to a professional service. I had never used one before for something like this, so I decided to see what Google had to offer. After reviewing what the search brought about, and browsing websites, it was obvious that The Bug Runner had what I was looking for. I called them, explained my situation, and set a date for the service call.They are extremely professional, highly knowledgeable, and Mike explained the treatment to me and my Dad in terms that we could understand. We use them every year, and our ant problem is no longer an issue any more. I would definitely recommend The Bug Runner for all your creepy-crawly needs!!!

Very knowledgeable and competent staff. Always courteous and timely. A pleasure to deal with them, and they get the job done properly. 10 years ago I bought a 70 year old house with termites nests both in front and back, by the second season after treatment they had gone, so far never to return. Likewise the mice problems. They come periodically to spray inside and out, and except the occasional spider or basement dwelling centipede I have had no pests.

Review №64

I highly recommend utilizing The Bug Runner company’s exterminating services. From the initial contact with Jessica at the front office, Mike who provided the exterminating services & Patricia who scheduled Mike’s 2-week follow-up appointment, they were all very professional. Mike did a thorough job explaining their process and then throughout my home (inside and out) he provided the chemicals to rid my home of the pests. And thus far, the chemicals have been extremely effective and it’s comforting to know I still have a 60 days service warranty. I am a very satisfied customer and will not hesitate to call them again should there be a need.

Review №67

We are newer customers of Bug Runner. Our neighbors told us of their good experience with them for years. We finally signed up last fall after the summer of 2018’s near daily rains brought out more ants than I could ever recall seeing around my home. We used to use the traps from the box stores and just (impatiently) wait. I am so glad we signed up with Bug Runner, though. Their staff on the phone and that come out are helpful and courteous. The technicians that service the property are knowledgeable and thorough. The products they use are effective and safe around children and pets. This spring has also been really bad with ants-worse than last year. I even found a swarm in my office! I called Bug Runner and they scheduled an appointment within a couple days and were accommodating to my/my husband’s work schedule. They will come out in-between your scheduled treatments if you see any covered insects and will apply more product for no additional cost. The techs even encourage you to call again if you see more after a couple of weeks of letting the bait do its job. I have had wonderful experience with them, from estimates of additional treatments (ticks!), to applying forgotten promotional discounts that got lost in my email, to following up on questions. Highly recommend them to anyone who is in need and hates bugs!

The Bug Runner organization was quick to respond to our yellow jacket crisis. They communicated well, made a thorough investigation of the nest and were cautious about making sure that our dog stayed safe. When the first application of sprays lessened but didnt fully resolve the problem, the Bug Runner again responded quickly, was apologetic and cheerful and treated the area again, and at no charge. I am comfortable recommending the Bug Runner without reservation.

We had non stop ants in our house in Rutherford. I had called in told them the scoop that we had another company treat it before and they came right back. Bug Runner came out and tech spent at least an hour with me walking around every part of my house and yard accessing the problem. After he figured out where everything was he went to work. We were away for a month and came back home. I was expecting to see some ants in our house as its always been a problem. NOT ONE! Its still a month later and we havent any sightings yet. I do see them coming back to the lawn but we have another lawn treatment coming this summer and well see from there.
