Cook’s Pest Control has been fantastic! Austin is incredibly professional and clearly knowledgeable in his field. He’s truly gone above and beyond my expectations. It’s reassuring to know that whenever we have an issue, he’s there to take care of those pesky pests. Thank you, Austin, for your exceptional service! You and Angie were both amazing, and we’re so grateful for everything you’ve done!

Cook's Pest Control made a huge impact on my facility from day 1. They were so professional throughout the process, communicated with timeliness and brevity, never felt like I was being sold to, more like they wanted to make sure their services were a good fit for us. Angie and Austin take the time to explain what they are doing within the facility and how they will partner with us for the best outcome. Would definitely recommend Cook's Pest Control to anyone who needs pest services.

James my termite tech was very polite and respectful. He did a full exterior/ interior inspection. He explained what he was doing and why. He even made sure to close my gate back when I asked him since I have a toddler and pets

There has never been a time where I haven't called them and they haven't been right over to fix my problem. I like that even the owner has come out and sprayed my house when I had ants.

I made a desperate phone call to Cooks after seeing those large brown roaches in our home. Tanya came promptly, asked us a few questions and immediately began treating our home. She was the most thorough, conscientious and professional pest control tech we have ever had! She didn't leave until she had treated our entire home--basement, attic, and 2 floors; and then moved on to the outdoors where she continued to treat for our issue. We have not seen a roach since her visit! She knows her profession and I have been wonderfully pleased.

They are great. Great communication and do not have any problems with bugs except flies outside which not much can be done about that I am told. We had a horrible ant problem in the house which has completely abated. They also installed and serve the termite traps which has not been a problem again. Been with these nice people for almost 20 years.

I am a huge fan of Gainesville Cook’s Pest Control. I live in the woods and HAD tons of unwelcome visitors. After switching to Cook’s, I haven’t had a single issue. I especially appreciate how friendly, professionally and knowledgeable the technicians are - they seem to genuinely care that I am a satisfied customer!

The employees at Cook's are very kind/nice, Chris was our area's representative and he was great with explaining the history of Cook's products and services, as well as describing the process of what they use both indoors and out! Providing you details of what pests they can control, making sure your family is getting the best price for your specific pests needs. They have a 24/7 phone number you may call anytime you're having any urgent issues or questions, and someone will be able to help! I'm glad I was able to get their services to help!

The products are comprehensive and just in the couple of days since we had our house serviced, it has been noticeably better in terms of the rodent activity in the attic that we were hearing. I think they're running scared at this point, which is great! The level of service we received is peerless- Justin made me feel like he really cares about our pest problem and seems determined to resolve it quickly. I feel confident that we made the right choice when we contacted Cooks Pest Control to manage our issue and let us get back to living in our home worry-free instead of letting the pests run the show.

I don't think I can say enough good things about the people of Cook's. After all I don't do business with a company, it's with the people, i.e. the person that answers the phone (and it's a person!), the technicians and the managers. I thought I had a problem and I expressed that in a survey response. I got an email and a phone call from Jesse Ferguson. He took ownership of the problem immediately. That's why I said I thought I had a problem. Not once in my interaction with Mr. Ferguson did he offer a reason or excuse. He took it and fixed it. After that I called the office because I saw some pests. Again, it was not my problem but Cook's. Our technician, Blake, came to my home in short order. He treated for the pests I mentioned and then some. Overkill? I hope so! No only that, Blake sent me an email and text to make sure I call if there are further issues for Cook's Pest Control to resolve. What I'm trying to convey is that Cook's Pest Control takes my pest problems and makes them go away. Isn't that all anyone ever wants? Thank you Cook's and by that I mean the people of Cook's! Updated March of 2022 I still love Cook's for my pest elimination. I see the Cook's technician and I don't see bugs. July 2022 Still loving Cook’s. January 2023 Still the same great service. Not disappointed. April 2023 Still happy.

I was using a different company and was having continuous problems with them. Jake, the sales manager, came out and talked to me about everything and had Hayden out to do a mosquito treatment for me! Hayden was great! I also had Doug come out within the next day of calling to do the basic pest control. Doug was very knowledgeable about everything and went above and beyond for me! Definitely recommend this company!

I just started using Cook's this year. I'm very pleased with the service. The service rep was very helpful, on time, and came back when I called to provide assistance with a secondary problem at no charge. The price is in line, if not better than other companies, and the staff is been very pleasant. I have not had problems with any bugs since we've started with them.

Last year I had a huge ant infestation. The guys came out several times for a couple of months until the ants were gone. Other exterminators quit on me because of how bad it is. Now my routine services is automatically scheduled and I don't have to worry about pests anymore.

Thank you BRETT for such outstanding service. You went above and beyond and for that you are FIVE star! While driving on the side of the road my tire ripped and I didn’t have a jack or a spare. I was slowly driving on the side of the road to go to the tire shop about five miles ahead. Brett made a u-turn, offered to let me use his spare tire, but it didn’t fit. He then very graciously jacked up my car assisted with taking off the tire, drove me to the tire shop to get a new one and then drove me back to my car. Brett explained to me he got clearance from his supervisor to assist me. His company believes in helping others even if they are not current customers. I believe this says a lot about this company’s integrity and foundational beliefs. Cook’s Pest Control is five star! Thank you

The price is very competitive for monthly service, less than many others. Chris always calls in advance to let us know he's coming so we can corral our dogs, he does a thorough job and pays extra attention to knock down wasp nests, and even though he has to travel up the mountain to service us and others in the area, if it's raining he's fine with coming another day. Great service!

Cooks is a great company! They stand behind their promises. We unfortunately had termite damage and Cooks and Jesse stood behind our termite bond. The repairs were done by a professional company and Jesse was in constant communication with us throughout this process.

From the moment both gentlemen got to my house. They were caring and very professional. They sat down and explained all of our options to my wife and I. There was no push to sell their product. BTW Their product sold itself. We returned their call in a few days and discussed a few more things then agreed on Cook as our pest control company. Jesse and Jake will stand behind their product at Cook and now so will we.
