Janus Pest Management, Inc.

My grandmother told me it is not what you say but what you do. Jay from Janus Pest was short on words saying just that he would rid my yard of gophers. A week later, gophers gone. Prices very competitive, service friendly and prompt, results amazing.

I’m very impressed with this company. We had a bad problem with ants and tried for weeks to deal with it on our own but to no avail. On recommendation from a friend, I called Janus. Very nice, personal service, and they sent someone out right away. More than one month later (as that’s the true test), we have no problems. Would definitely use them again.

I’ve been using Janus for years now for my 4 unit apartment building where I also live. I’m always amazed with the great service I receive. How come every company can’t be run like Janus? I switched from Orkin because there was a new service rep every couple of months and I was tired of explaining our needs every time. Our technician Kirk is so pleasant to work with, patiently answers my questions. Texts me notice when he’s coming the day before per my request and remembers our needs with pets, etc. Oh, and they turned out to be less expensive than Orkin. It’s no surprise they have all 5 star ratings on Unilocal.I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t love their service, especially since they help you keep your home bug free!

We have had Janus Pest come out twice now, once for a gopher digging his way through our backyard and another time for ants that bravely ventured into our house looking for food and water. For each job, Jay has been very thorough in assessing the issue and discussing potential solutions. He’s very patient in answering any questions and his deep knowledge of his craft is easy to see. Pricing is very reasonable and Jay was always on time for scheduled appointments. We expect to be customers of Janus Pest for years to come and wholeheartedly recommend their services.

I had an outstanding experience with this company. Aside from the knowledge and expertise provided by this company, the customer service was outstanding. I received excellent customer service that truly is hard to find today. I would highly recommend this company to anyone with a pest management issue.

Very impressed with this company. Six months out of a year, the non-​profit organization I lead (AYSO-​American Youth Soccer Organization, Region 7) uses Nielsen Park in Westchester (LAX). We started the season with a big problem for our kids playing soccer: gophers were everywhere, destroying the fields and running around while the little ones were practicing. One of our volunteers contacted Janus Pest Management and I am happy we did. Top notch customer service and dedicated personnel. They delivered on their promises, and today, two months later, you won’t see one gopher running around. Great job!

We had a really bad skunk problem and hired Janus to help us. Jay Spicer came to the rescue and the problem was quickly handled for a reasonable price. About a year later we were completely inundated with ants, and once again I hired Janus and have never had an ant problem since. Jay Spicer is responsive, efficient, and also really nice. A while later we had the unfortunate experience of a family of rats moving into our home. I nearly lost my mind with this one, you can’t imagine how quickly our home turned into a vermin infested nightmare. I called Jay, and for $ 395 we had dozens of traps set (that put an end to NINE rats lives so far) and also contracted for outdoor rat control to keep the problem from happening again. Jay works hard to accommodate my schedule to come by and service the traps. (I HIGHLY recommend calling Janus immediately when you have rats. Even one rat. It got really bad really fast because we thought we could handle it ourselves with a few traps.) That wasn’t all. While we were dealing with the rats, I was bitten by a black widow spider (in my bed, while I slept, augh!) and I called Jay (who is now on speed dial) and he came right away and sprayed the house which has given me untold peace of mind. The bite was seriously awful. I cannot recommend Janus highly enough, they are professional and really know their business.

No one wants to see a rat diving under their house as I did the other night. I immediately logged onto Angie’s List and began researching options for rodent/​pest control. I was very impressed with Janus’ website which reflected their knowledge of what their business is and their experience in the industry. I knew that I wanted to go with a local owner-​operated company for this project due to the sensitive nature, I did not want to be on hold if something went awry.
Jay came out the very next day to do an inspection and provide me a quote. He was punctual, professional, and friendly. We worked out a fair deal and he went right to work setting up traps.
Within the first week Jay has come back to my house twice to collect the rats that have been caught and reset the traps. He’s done it usually within a few hours of me calling, and even though I signed up for weekly visits he has not made one issue of coming back whenever a rodent has been caught.
No one wants a rodent or pest problem, but when you have one I am sure we all want to work with a vendor that understands how important it is for you and your family to sleep in peace. Jay and Janus are effective, responsive, and more than fair to work with. I highly recommend Janus Pest Management without reservation!

Mr. & Mrs. Ratty McRatterson finally got their eviction notice thanks to Janus Pest Management.
I was always afraid to pull the trigger on dealing with the rats because every place I called gave me a quote for thousands of dollars. But November 2012 I finally decided to try one more place and found Janus Pest on Angie’s list. I got a quote for $ 365 for everything! I was suspicious about the difference in price but I had to do something. Janus came highly recommended by Angie’s list, and they were so nice on the phone, so I went for it.
Kirk did an evaluation and based on how established they seemed to be up there, decided to do a setup and «pre-​bait» in the attic and crawl space. That is where he just lays out the traps with the bait (but doesn’t set them) to get the rats comfortable. He used peanut butter and old-​fashioned wooden traps. He came back a few days later and actually set them. Then he came back 4 more times, once each week, to check and rebait traps as needed, maybe change the pattern of them, etc. The final step was to seal everything off so they find someplace else to hang out.
After it was all said and done, there were only two caught. It’s been 9 months and I haven’t heard a peep. Thank you Kirk!

I have been a customer of Janus Pest Management for more than 6 years and have never had to call them back for a re-​treatment. I use them for both my home and business. My previous Pest company, was nickle and diming me to death and I had to call them back constantly to re-​treat for issues. Once Janus took over this never happened again and the price was significantly lower. The technicians are both knowledgeable and friendly and the customer service is amazing. I also had them do some termite work and I was pleasantly surprised at how low the price was and that there was no inspection fee. I never have to worry about pest issues as long as Janus is on the job! I would highly recommend Janus for all your pest issues.
