I have had Aptive for a number of years, and I feel it has made a difference. Their presence is always announced, and they provide photos after their work. The workpeople are friendly, and attentive to my needs. I just wish that their prices hadn't increased so much in recent years.

Technicians listen but mosquito service may not be worth it
Technicians listen, are respectful, friendly, and address any specific issues brought to their attention.
I always know what day they're coming but never what time, not even any kind of window. Sometimes I am not home to discuss an issue I may have.
Mosquito treatment was helpful, however, had some chemical damage to other plants/shrubs. I have since discontinued mosquito service.

Sales vs Operations vs Reality
When I was approached by the Aptive sales rep, we had just moved here. I wasn’t familiar with the company and thought perhaps they came with the territory, that maybe bugs were a problem in Shorewood.In any case the main promise of the rep that caused me to accept the program was that “every square inch of your property would be treated inside & out”. As I watched the first few sporadic applications, I pointed out to the operators that a little less than every square inch was covered. In fact of the half dozen applications, only the first one treated the garage and no one has ever entered the house. Which brings me to the last visit. I noticed on the ring camera that the agent couldn’t have spent more than 15 minutes on the job. When he requested my response to the performance inquiry sent after every visit, I asked about the brief time spent & that it was physically impossible that every square inch of my property was covered. The response advised me that spraying the property was not allowed by company policy when the wind speed was over 15 mph. As the company didn’t hesitate to charge my credit card 100% of the fee, I asked when I could expect the rest of the treatment to be completed. That must have stumped him or maybe he kicked it back to the sales team for an answer as I still haven’t received a response or refund. I cannot wait for the expiration of the contract because I cannot continue to waste my limited income on service that comes nothing close to what was offered.

Hi Mike,
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and I’m truly sorry to hear about your experience. At Aptive, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional service and clear communication, and it’s concerning to hear that we didn’t meet those standards during your time with us. We take your concerns seriously and would love to have the opportunity to address them in more detail.
We understand how important it is to feel confident in the services you’re receiving, and we regret that the promises made by our sales representative were not fully fulfilled. It’s also concerning to hear about the time spent on site and the lack of follow-up communication regarding your treatment and refund request.
Please reach out to us directly at socialmedia@goaptive.com so we can review your account, clarify the issues with the application process, and work toward a resolution. Your satisfaction is incredibly important to us, and we’re committed to making this right. We appreciate your patience and hope to resolve this for you as quickly as possible.
