Pest Control Company


Referred by Jens List member eliseshuben@hotmail.com


“I hate to admit it, but we had a mice problem in our home. I called a few pest control companies and settled on ALL PRO Pest Control. The owner Joseph came out and did a thorough inspection and gave me a very reasonable price. When I hired him, he came on time, did the work he promised to do, and came back after a few days to check on things and add more traps. I will use him again when I need someone to get rid of ants, spiders, bees, gophers, rats, mice etc. His phone number is (818)771-0396.”
