Abdel was running early and checked in to make sure he could stop by. And once here, he walked the the premises, talked with us about our situation and we came up with a plan that worked with our constraints. He did a great job of listening and offering solutions, including different levels of intervention. No other pest control business did this for us like Abdel did.
Donovan's will be my first call the next time I'm dealing with pests again.
Redwood City, CA

Thank you for the excellent service!
San Carlos, CA
I was very pleased with the service I received from Abdel. He was professional, friendly, informative. Abdel explained what he was looking for and what is our possible problem. Donovan's office sent a well-written, detailed estimate via email with recommendations. I feel Donovan's Pest Control is a company that cares about the client and not just about the dollar.

serviceman did a thorough perimeter inspection of our house and detached garage looking for signs of rodent entry. Inspection also included climbing up into house's attic and roof.

I just had a free pre inspection Abdel was amazing. Very knowledgeable and kind. The pricing seems very fair and its amazing working with folks that are very punctual. I'll be heading here for all my pest control needs.
San Francisco, CA
I found them to be efficient, prompt and pleasant to deal with.
They persisted until the source of the problem was identified.

I am generally quite happy with your pest control service, setting rat traps and collecting dead rats mostly the same day I call. It would be helpful if the person coming out knew where the traps were set. Several times the service person did not know where the traps were set and missed a number of them. If we are home, we can show them where the traps are. But we are not always home; the appointments should specify when the service will be, e.g. within a three-hour period, instead of just saying what date they will come.
The bottom line:
1. make appointments more specific than just the date.
2. make sure the service person knows where the traps are set, or have the same service person come each time.
Thanks, Birgitte Moyer.

Wow, thank you for your very kind review.
Hillsborough, CA
Very responsive, and it feels like you truly care about the quality of the work you do and how satisfied we are.
Redwood City, CA
They charged $150.00 for a free? Service!
Then told my husband who was not aware it cost $150 for them to come out that since it was a free visit, which was not true, why should the technician do anything
We might as well do it ourselves?!?
But I don’t want to that’s why I called Donovan’s
Now I’ve paid $150 and I still have the work to do. They’ve never gotten back to me regarding the fact that that was a inspection that was supposed to fix the problem
Not charge me for nothing, then leave!
San Francisco, CA
I was very happy with the service provided by Donovan's Pest Control, and I would highly recommend them to anyone. They were on time, honest and professional. Thank you very much!
Hillsborough, CA
I had asked to be notified when the technician would be at my house so I could be sure to be home. My phone message was never returned so the technician can and went without me being hime so he could check the traps in my house.
San Mateo, CA
Great, attentive service and responsive front desk team. Happy customer here.

Yes, I'm pleased with their service. The employees are friendly and know their job. My problem with pests is stopping.
Burlingame, CA
Service was very quick (20 min). Not sure how he was able to get through the entire property in that time period. I still see some spider webs as well. Not the best service we've experienced over the years...
Pacifica, CA
The information that I recieved at the first inspection was clear,professional and logical.The crew was polite,courteous and respectful of my home and property.This provided a level of trust for me.I am looking foward to using their services.

Came 20 min late. Received good advice.
Thank you.

We haven't had any service yet ....... however, the spelling on your e-mail is outstanding !!!!!!
Menlo Park, CA
Your technicians have been right on time in their appointments and seem thorough. How can I really know since at 86 I do not go into the attic or under the house? Trust is paramount working with Donovans. I must admit $125 for a 20 minute visit does seem high. Keep convincing me here.
Redwood City, CA
Well, we are just getting started but Tom came out as promised and seemed very knowledgeable. If he helps me get rid of my rat I will give 5 Plus stars so ask me in a couple of weeks!

Foster City, CA
Wrong address on e-mail notification of inspection; had to call to correct. Inspector showed up unannounced despite my specific request to call 30 minutes before arrival; I was not mask-ready when he arrived. I called back to arrange appointment and found out that I had already been scheduled. With no e-mail or phone notification I suspect I would have been surprised again. Service Technician was excellent. I love to patronize local family-owned companies but feel the logistical service was sub-optimal for a rather expensive service.
Redwood City, CA
They are shysters more interested in putting up a front than what they're supposed to do.
They put up a lot of energy into the front office and professional looking workers but they results are not there. I paid $220/month for many months and I still have ants in my kitchen every morning and wasps in my garden.
Pacifica, CA
Tech was on time, courteous, and careful about wearing mask and gloves to inspection. They gave me an accurate assessment of problem.
