No more rats ! Wonderful local business. I was very happy with the results SPC had at my home. Caught a couple of large rats and set us up on a affordable prevention service four times a year so that does not happen again. While at Costco over the weekend my service tech was there also and discreetly asked if everything was still going good at my home, I thought that was great and it showed that this company really cares for it's customers.

I was very pleased with Todd's response and education on pest matters. I just referred him to a friend of mine and emailed a couple neighbors as well. I didn't have too much to be concerned about but wanted to PREVENT pests from taking over while my house is fairly new too.

After discovering a huge hornets nest as some leaves fell off my tree and getting attacked I wanted those things dead and dead fast. Standard Pest Control came out within a hour and put on a bee suit and totally removed the nest from our apple tree without using any chemicals on it. I have not seen anymore hornet since. Outstanding customer service, Thanks again.
By Heather W. - 10/11/2011
I called Standard Pest Control because of the customer reviews. I travel frequently and recently stayed in a hotel where I found bed bugs. I was very concerned that I brought the bugs home. Within an hour of calling Todd, he came to my house, only to reassure me the critters were not in my home. He also gave me some valuable tips on how to identify the problem in a hotel room (and then run really fast in the opposite direction). I would highly recommend Todd and his company to anyone with pest control needs. His professionalism, promptness, and genuine desire to help his customers is very evident.

He's Honest ! What a Breath of Fresh Air ! I called because the reviews were so good, but I doubted they were true ! Boy was I Wrong ! Todd Answered the phone w/ in 3 rings! Right away he said he doesn't really deal w/ "yard pests" BUT he gave me several suggestions to try on my own! I sure miss business people like him ! Todd ... You're GREAT !
By Pacific Place - 8/28/2011
Todd exceeds expectations...very happy at Pacific Place. As usual Todd showed up on time and handled an issue we had with bees this morning. He is ALWAYS professional, great with residents and has a vast amount of knowledge. He not only helps us solve the problem but he helps us prevent future problems. Wouldn't use anyone else!!
By Kim W. - 7/13/2011
I had previous service from Standard Pest Control of Olympia, WA and was VERY satisfied. He was on time and prompt and explained everything very well. My carpenter ant problem has been fixed. He also notice my yellow jacket hive on the eave of the house. He advised me to get rid of it because as the temperature rises, so will the activity. The hive was fasinating to watch, but I was in fear of my daughter getting stung. He came out and removed the hive for free. I am still fascinated. He explained all about the hive mentality and the queen. I recommend them for any pest control needs. Very professional.
By Home Owner - 7/8/2011
Excellent Service, Statisfied Customer. There are a ton of pest control outfits in the area. Standard did not pressure us to sign up for a service contract. They were willing to work around our schedule and arrived promptly. Very professional and knowledgeable. Fair price. We will be using them again in the future.
By The Madison Apartments - 6/8/2011
Outstanding Professional Service!! Standard Pest Control has exceeded my expectations for the last 3 years. I work in the multi-family business and have relied on Standard to take care of all my pest control needs. They are very responsive...great with the residents and always...always professional.
By G.E.M. - 5/27/2011
I am 100% satisfied with the work that Standard Pest Control has done for us. Todd exceeded all of my expectations with the way that he went above and beyond to service our needs. I highly recommend Todd and his company.
By Amy - 4/7/2011
I called Todd about an ant problem and he came out the next day. I had called a few other pest control companies but he was the most affordable. He did a great job - no more ants! - and was courteous, professional and efficient. And doing business with a small, family-owned company is a bonus!
By John Duerr, Coldwell Banker - 4/1/2011
Called Todd in the morning and he came out the next day. He knew exactly what the problem was and handled it immediately and decisively. I have a dog and kids and he assured me it will only kill the bugs, not the "big bugs". Greatly appreciate Todd at Standard Pest Control. THANKS TODD
By Michael & Debra in Olympia - 3/12/2011
If you have a pest problem, you must call Standard Pest Control. Todd, thank you so much for your professionalism and great service at a fair price. Not only are the pests gone from under our home, but we were given advice to avoid future problems. Todd let us know about a tree issue that could or did lead to roof rats and a garage door problem. I appreciate his advice and his concern about protecting pets and property. I would recommend Standard Pest Control to anyone with a pest issue and would not hesitate calling again.
By Jeff in DuPont - 2/3/2011
I had a tenant who complained about a mouse or rat scurrying above in the attic in a rental property of mine. I called Standard Pest Control and was given a firm quote and commitment to contact my tenant and take care of the problem right away. Todd was out to the property and took care of the roof rat problem quickly and efficiently. He even came back to my property a couple of times to make sure that everything was completely taken care of and that there were no more rats. He even went to the trouble of taking care of a couple of torn vent holes leading into the foundation by installing additional mesh wiring. I will use Standard Pest Control again if I ever have any more pest problems in my rental properties.
By Mike in Olympia - 11/1/2010
Called Standard Pest Control because of a rat problem in my motor home. Talked to Todd on Monday morning he came out the same day @ 3:30pm. He looked over the situation and placed two baited traps in the motor home and filled two bait stations near my house. He came by the next morning and BINGO we had the rodent. I can't say enough about his knowledge of what needs to be done. Very professional company and great customer service. I will call Todd and his company again whenever I need pest control.
By Mike in Tumwater - 9/6/2010
Spoke with Todd at Standard Pest Control on the phone and he gave me instructions over the phone on how to handle my rat problem myself ... and it's working! I must say, I am not use to a business person talking you out of using their services as Todd did. But if I should need professional help in the future, I know who to call now - and again, Thanks!
By Lacey Resident - 8/21/2010
Super Happy & Relieved!! I'm a Naval Reservist on orders and work out of Whidbey Island during the week. My disabled mother lives in our home and reported hearing noises at night. Sure enough when I came home this weekend I could hear what could only be rats running on the duct work under the house and I could hear their squeaking in the walls in the bathroom this morning. I got on line and found Todd of Standard Pest Control and sent him an urgent e-mail. Even though his hours start at 1000 on Saturday, he called me within 20 minutes of sending the e-mail and was here by 1000. Todd is very pleasant, knowledgeable and his customer service is outstanding. He explained the steps I should take to keep the rats from being attracted to the house. Who knew they like to snack on dog poop!? So I'm hiring my niece to be a pooper scooper and mom will be bringing the dog food/water in at night. Todd has reassured us that he will be following up til the rats are gone and has given us back our peace of mind.
By Hearthstone Apartments - 8/4/2010
Happy in Tumwater! I couldn't be happier with Todd and Standard Pest Control! As an apartment community manager we encounter residents that have phobias against spiders, ants and bugs in general. It's wonderful to know that we can call Todd and within a day he is out to get rid of whatever pest has made their way into a residents apartment. He is always very courteous, friendly and informative with pest preventive tips. We are happy to have him servicing our apartment community! He's the best!
By Lisa - 7/30/2010
Talk about prompt service and he was very knowledgeable about how to kill the horrible fleas in the rental house next door. The rental house was so bad we could not get the work crew in there without fleas doing serious harm to their legs. I needed help quick because I have all these people lined up to fix the place up to get it back on the market to rent. Not only did Todd come within an hour he also took care of other problems around my own home I never got to and did not know how to get rid of ants with a den about 2 feet high out in our woods. He knew about that and a lot of other things like wasps, etc. He had my place taken care of so fast he left me amazed. And it was also affordable...makes we wonder why I waited so long to have him out here in the first place. I'm glad that Windermere Property Management recommended him to me.
By LKLacey - 7/27/2010
Called about a yellow jacket nest under the siding of my house - Todd and his son came out the same day, and by evening all the yellow jackets were gone! They even found another wasp nest under my eves and took care of it as well. Super friendly, great service and no more bees! I couldn't be happier. Will call Standard Pest Control for all my pest needs.
By Todd, Owen & Kelley R. - 7/16/2010
We were having a problem with chipmunks getting into our walls of our house. Todd came out within 5 minutes of estimated time of same day called and thoroughly checked out our home and gave us a simple solution to do ourselves and didn't even charge for the house call. Will use him in the future or recommend him to anyone! Professional- yes. Honest- yes.
By NW Southernbelle - 7/16/2010
Wow, believe the reviews posted! We were having a problem with chipmunks getting into our walls of our house. Todd came out within 5 minutes of estimated time (same day called) and thoroughly checked out our home and gave us a simple solution to do ourselves. Didn't even charge for the housecall. Will use him in the future or recommend him to anyone! Professional-yes. Honest-yes. Thanks Todd.
By Woodsy Habitat by JD - 7/7/2010
I met Todd from Standard Pest Control this morning. I was very impressed with his technical knowledge and customer service. My neighbors have been using Todd's services for years and now I know why. I was a customer service expert for decades and Todd is the real deal. I'm confident his pest protection is as good as his reputation and I will be adding a review after we've had time to assess our association. I'd like to thank my neighbors for recommending Standard.
By Deborah - 5/31/2010
Thank you so much for your help this weekend. I really appreciated your telling me how to remove book lice from my house without having to resort to spraying pesticides in my kitchen. I was desparate to get rid of them before my new refrigerator arrived and your advice allowed me to achieve that goal. I called several pest control companies, even my usual local company, and all of them said that I would have to spray or they had never even heard of book lice. You not only had heard of them, but you even went online and did additional research to see what the newest recommended methods were for getting rid of them. Not only will I be switching to you for all of my pest control from now on, I will also be recommending you to all of my friends and family. Thank you so much for your wonderful assistance.
By Tim - 5/26/2010
I called Standard Pest Control to take care of wasp nests on our 2 story house. They were friendly on the phone, gave me a firm quote which was very reasonable and came out the next day and took care of our problem. I had a very good experience with them and will call again when needed.
By Sheri - 5/9/2010
Had a problem with squirrels in the roof. Father and son came out exactly when they said they would. Very friendly and helpful suggestions. Screened off openings, put out bait box in a jiffy! Very reasonably priced, very good people. Highly recommend this business.
By Lory & Jeff - 4/21/2010
Well rounded service with a sunny disposition! I went searching for someone to bring down the number of spiders around our house and shrubs. Thankfully I found STANDARD PEST CONTROL. Todd was direct and upfront and clearly articulated his willingness to not only get "rid" of all the unwanted pests but went above and beyond reassuring us that he values all of his clients and runs a honest business. He takes feedback with a smile and he has been a pleasure to work with. I have cats and soon to add a dog and I know that he is as concerned about the animals in the home as well as the people.
By Michelle - 3/27/2010
We are very impressed with Todd from Standard Pest Control. He is very professional, knowledgeable, and reasonably priced. When we have had an issue with mice, he makes time to quickly come out and take care of the problem. We would highly recommend him.
By Mickey - 3/27/2010
We would highly recommend Todd from Standard Pest Control. He is very professional, knowledgeable and his services are reasonably priced. We have a mouse problem in the neighborhood that we live in, and when you contact him he is quick to come out and take care of things.
By Michelle W. - 3/27/2010
Todd from Standard Pest provides great service. He is very professional, thorough and he promptly came over and took care of our pest problems. We would highly recommend this business.
By Ants - 3/10/2010
Fantastic job! Not only was Todd professional, he cared about my family and animals sensitivity to chemicals. We had an ant problem after we changed our dishwasher, Todd showed up quickly, was efficient, non evasive, and got right to the problem. We found him affordable and trustworthy. Within a day the ants were gone! Thanks Standard Pest Control for a job well done!
By Kellie G. - 2/26/2010
Todd goes above and beyond. A family ran business, they offer great rates, pet and kid safe products, he is on time, and sets up an affordable plan if you need future visits. He does not try to sell you a bunch of services you don't need. He also offers Military and Civil Servant Discounts.
By Louise - 12/14/2009
Many thanks for solving the problem in my roof. I would highly recommend you and I would definitely call you again should I need your services. The squirrels in the attic have been a long time problem and it appears solved.
By Victoria - 11/23/2009
I called Todd out for a rodent problem after seeing what I thought was a rat in my garage. He came out the same day, looked in the garage and the crawl space under the house. He told me I did not appear to have a rodent problem rather a lone rat. He set a trap in my garage and did not charge me for the visit. I really appreciated his honesty. I would strongly recommend him.
11/11/2009
I picked up bed bugs from a hotel and Standard Pest Control treated my situation with a "green method" of using hot steam and a heat gun instead of using pest spray on my bed. Standard was also discrete with my condo neighbors. Thanks again for all your help.
By Colleen - 11/8/2009
I highly recommend this company. The best customer service and follow through I have seen in a long time. Prompt and courteous. Flexible and reasonably priced. Todd answered all of my questions and delivered everything he promised.
10/25/2009
Very happy with service, no high pressure up sell or contract to sign. Service was great and got rid of our problem right away. I have recommended Standard Pest Control to friends and co-workers and they were very satisfied as well. Thanks again.
By Lory & Jeff - 10/22/2009
Spiders, no more. After speaking with Todd on the telephone it was evident that he takes pride in his work and satisfying his customers. We hired him to provide pest control to our home in the summer of 2009 and have invited him back for treatment in the summer of 2010.
By JH - 10/18/2009
Above and beyond expectations. Todd Player is a rarity in todays world. We called him with a problem, he responded the SAME day, came out two days later and took care of the problem along with another we didn't notice before. What a guy!! So honest, helpful, friendly and reasonably priced. Quite a package, I'd say. Would we reccomend him to others? In a heartbeat!
By Tami - 9/18/2009
I had hornets in my walls. Todd was at my house the same day I called. The nest was bigger than I thought and had to call him a couple weeks later. He came by again on the day I called. I have not seen a hornet anywhere near my house since.
By ls2725 - 9/8/2009
Very responsive and competitively priced. I gave Standard Pest Control a try after reading other reviews about them. I was very satisfied with their responsiveness to my request for a treatment. They were able to get the job done on short notice and did the work quickly for a fair price. Although I never actually met them, Todd (the owner) called me back after the job was complete to make sure I knew they had completed the work and to make sure I was satisfied. They gave me a great warranty on their work and I am confident that I would rely on Standard again for any preventative or corrective pest control treatment in the future.
By "Garbage Girl" - 8/27/2009
Standard is a great company for pest control. Todd is here once a week to keep our rat population under control and is always friendly. He has been our go-to-guy for pest control for over 2 years. I would recommend him to anyone that has a pest problem.
By Becky - 7/9/2009
Todd from Standard Pest Control is wonderful. I am allergic to bees and not only did he come out the same day to remove a hive that had grown in our shed when the bees started making hives around the house he came back and included that as a part of the first visit. I would use this company again.
By Elain - 7/8/2009
I can't say enough good things about Standard Pest Control. I am an environmentalist and animal lover who wanted to discourage the starlings from nesting in my eaves every year. Todd Player, owner of SPC honored my wishes by barring different entry points "before" the starlings arrived to set up residence. Several weeks later, I had him come out to deal with a carpenter ant problem and was very pleased that the solution he mixes and the method of delivery to the nest is environmentally friendly. The ants were gone within a few days and no harm came to wildlife or neighborhood pets. Thanks, Todd. You are the best!!! I don't hesitate to recommend you to anyone who needs pest control services.
By Julie - 7/2/2009
Thanks again for doing the work you did for me. I remain very happy that I was able to hire you to do that. I've had a lot of contractors do various things for me but most of them are people I'd never recommend to anyone. It is unusual in this day and age to find someone that is honest, open and caring enough to not try and take advantage of people by telling them they need a lot more work then they really do. And, on top of that, someone that knows what they are doing and do it in a very professional manner. Indeed, I remain very happy with your service.
By "Eastsideoly" - 6/25/2009
Todd (Standard Pest) is great. Knowledgeble and polite. Seems to take pride in his work and is interested in building long-term customers. Would definitely suggest him. His fees are also quite low - the lowest I could find.
By Tara - 6/11/2009
Great service for pest problems. Very professional reasonably priced, friendly and considerate. I would not call anyone else for a pest problem. The other estimates that I had done were double or triple the price Todd quoted. Todd is efficient, effective, helpful, and friendly.
By Kay - 2/25/2009
Standard Pest Control was prompt at resolving our sugar ant issue that another pest control company failed to do. They are locally owned and operated and would recommend them to anyone who needs pest control service.
