Haskell Termite & Pest Control Inc.

3.7(136)✓ Google-verified

Long-term customers find Haskell reliable and fair, particularly praising technicians Luis and James for patience, transparency, and genuine problem-solving. A meaningful segment rates them highly for tough cases and quarterly maintenance. Several recent low ratings track driver conduct, abrupt cancellations despite favorable forecast conditions, and staff defensiveness when issues are raised. The 3.7 average masks a stark split: 62% five-star but 32% one/two-star, reflecting inconsistent execution or customer-facing friction at key touchpoints.
