Always friendly and on time
Always friendly and on time. They went through all the places I had indicated where we usually get pests and he sprayed those areas. I also warned him to be careful as we had a bird’s nest with eggs underneath where he would be spraying so to not disturb them as much as possible.
Overall 10 out of 10
I like the service.
Complete, knowledgeable, offering suggestions that I can use to limit any entrance of vermin.
Derek was very polite and informed.He called before arriving letting me know his schedule. He gave me suggestions on keeping the mouse population low and gave me glue pads to monitor any droppings. He also walking around the outside of the house with me and checked the traps. I was very pleased with his visit.
Dedicated workers
The person who came, informed me in advance to see if I have any issues need to be addressed. He sent me photos of the areas he had worked on.
I still have ants.
Paid for 10 months of service
Paid for 10 months of service. Only received 4 actual visits.
Aptive billed me $86.40/month for 10 months ($864 total) but only performed pest control service 4 times during that entire period. When I called to cancel, they demanded a $200 early-termination fee — despite the fact that THEY failed to deliver the service. When I asked to speak to a manager to escalate, customer service flat-out refused.
I’m now pursuing the matter through the New York Attorney General’s office, the BBB, and the CFPB. Aptive paid a $220,000 settlement to the Pennsylvania AG in 2023 for similar conduct (refusing to honor cancellation requests), so this appears to be an ongoing pattern, not a one-off.
Before you sign up with this company, check their complaint history. Before you let them cancel without a fight, check your billing against how many services they actually performed — you may be owed a substantial refund.
Tony was awesome
Tony was awesome. He explained what he was doing both inside and outside and even give some tips about being proactive.
Jordan
Jordan, with Active is absolutely an amazing technician. He goes above and beyond every time he’s out here. I would highly recommend him as a technician. I’m very pleased with Aptive.
It was all good except we had asked for…
It was all good except we had asked for a 3 bee traps and we only got one even though I called and told them we needed two for the back yard and one for the front yard. Which was explained again when the technician was there.
Spot On Service
Your service tech was spot on from arrival notice to departure notice. Cordial and professional, he went on with his treatment services and followed up with a treatment summary. Kudos!
Regarding pest control, treatments seem to be working except for moles. After a year, they’re still a problem.
Great company great service great techs
