Aptive Pest Control go ABOVE AND BEYOND…
Aptive Pest Control in Ankeny go ABOVE AND BEYOND every.time! I get a text message that they are on their way and ask if there’s anything specific I need this month. Then I get a text message after they’re done telling me what they did, along with photos of my house showing what they did. I would highly recommend them!!

Effective treatments for ants if applied on a sunny day
The treatments seem to work as long as they're applied on a day when it's not raining. I've also never had the same applicator visit twice... which is super weird... but I don't have ants indoors and the pricing seems reasonable.
Yes, it might be some kind of weird MLM, but I don't engage with them on that side and am only interested in keeping bugs outside the house. I will say that even though they advertise the treatments to also keep put mice, that doesn't seem the case (but we also have a huge mice population in southern IN, so we might be an outlier) While I won't endorse them fully, if you can do one of their short term deals, I think it's worth the fight to get out of it later.

Great company
Great company, last visit was pleasant. Your employees sometimes are good and others just there to do a job with no positive attitude. Once again, great company. My last visit was great.
