Exterminator in MoCo

Any recs?  I can get rid of the occasional ants and kill the stupid spiders I find but a few weeks ago DH found a roach in the kitchen and since then we have been killing a few every few days (finding them on the glue board in the morning which scres me because we rarely actually see one).  We have lived in this house for 6 years and never seen one of them - I am super freaked out by this especially since I had them in my very first apt down here and I know they are hard to get rid of for good.  So I have not used the kitchen for any real cooking in over a week and DH tried some traps etc (that I told him would not be good enough) and finally broke down and said to get an exterminator.  Any good recs?  I need someone out here immediately.

 We are in a  townhouse so I can only guess the new neighbors brought them along when they moved in about a year ago so we will be getting a yearly contract to have the house sprayed quarterly for upkeep.

CryingIck!

  • We use Affordable Pest and have been happy with their service (as in, we had a problem, it was fixed, they now come quarterly, we had a problem btwn visits, they came, it was fixed again, and has since been fixed permanently.)

    They were the cheapest when I called around for estimates.  When our contract is up this fall i'll probably call around again.

    ETA:  Orkin came door to door saying that "our neighbors where having issues" and were offering some sort of neighborhood discount, and I told him that we already have a service contract with another company and were happy, so he said ok and left.  And then 2 days later came back trying to sell me on this crap again, and I told him what I told him before, and he was really pushy and annoying.  So out of principle, I will never use Orkin.

  • We used orkin for termites outside. and dh was pleased with them. west something or other my friend used. let me see if i can get their info
