    Looking for a bug company. All the creepy crawlies are starting to show up now that the weather has warmed up! Do you guys have any recommendations as far as companies? Also, what's the general amount I should be paying for bug service? Thanks in advance for your help!

    We've been happy with Moxie. Their customer service is really good. We pay $89 per quarter. But they'll come out any time in between quarters if you're finding you need a little extra help. They came out recently to tackle a centipede issue and didn't charge for it. Its all included in the quarterly fee.

    We are also happy with Moxie. We had them out on Saturday to treat our ant problem.

    We're using Terminix now and like their service.

    We previously used Loudoun Lawn and Pest, and their service was substandard at best - very poor communications and scheduling and showing up when they are supposed to. So I don't recommend Loudoun Lawn and Pest.

    Have you been using them for a while? The reason I was asking is that I called them today to get a quote as we have been seeing a lot of ants and they quoted me 139 for the initial treatment and 119 for each quarterly treatment.

    I'm going to withdraw my previous recommendation for Terminix. We had an appointment for them to come last Saturday. The window was 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., so we orchestrated our ENTIRE DAY's schedule around having someone at home waiting for Terminix. Around 4 p.m. we called them to verify they appointment and ask when they were coming. The national number couldn't get ahold of the local office manager or service technician. 5 p.m. came and went and they NEVER showed. I emailed and my wife called and asked what gives and why didn't they show up, and they have not responded to us AT ALL. They totally blew us off and have not responded to any of our attempts to contact them. Thbbbbbt! :-( :p
