What recent reviews say

Manny has built a loyal following with 10-plus-year clients who trust his professionalism, reliability, and willingness to solve problems beyond standard service calls. Most visits run smoothly with on-time arrivals and thorough work on everything from routine pest control to termite tenting. One recent termite case, however, revealed gaps: lengthy delays between contract signing and service start, weak follow-up on a roof leak caused during tenting, and dismissal of liability once damage occurred.

The business claims to operate since 1979 across Tampa Bay and serves all major pest categories, with technicians like Darryl and Jaimes earning separate praise for responsiveness and honesty. Pricing appears fair relative to competitors (some customers cite it as better than alternatives like Magnum for tenting), though warranty terms and scheduling availability deserve clarity upfront.

  • in-house termite tenting (no subcontracting)

  • Darryl provides responsive follow-up and long-standing family service.
  • Technician Jaimes recognized for honesty and helpful recommendations.
  • Business tents guest houses and main structures in-house rather than subcontracting.

Common questions

What is the warranty on termite work?

Chet's Termite & Pest Management, Inc.

4.7(979)✓ Google-verified

Long-serving customers prize Chet's for consistent technicians who show up on time, ask thoughtful questions, and get results that last. Art, Yunior, Frank, Sheldon, John, and Ronnie earned multiple mentions for friendliness and thorough work. The flip side: one customer was blindsided by a multi-year contract, another waited over a week for a commercial quote, and a termite treatment led to roof damage with unresolved warranty claims. Their chemicals leave little smell, they work around young children, and some customers have stayed for over 20 years. Staff turnover appears low. Still, review the contract carefully before signing, and clarify what happens if treatment fails or causes damage.
