Eric is amazing! He is efficient, communicative and goes above and beyond. We had a whole home termite service done (which was great) but we had a breakthrough issue with a particularly stubborn batch of termites. When I contacted Eric he fit us into his schedule and came out to put a bait box just for the pesky critters. He didnt have to, we could have let the whole home service hopefully take care of it but he showed his commitment to his customers to come out and try to take care of the isolated issue. Well done Eric! When someone asks me who I use for pest control there will be no question I will recommend Eric.

Desert Shield Pest Control, Eric Rodriguez earned my business because Eric is polite, professional, friendly, honest and accommodating. He knows how to establish a rapport to his clients. He will listen to your concerns and addressed them in a polite way. After the work is complete, he walks around the site to ensure everything is done correctly to your satisfaction. Even during the initial call, the lady on the phone is nice and friendly not even 5 minutes Eric called me. If I could give them 100 stars rating I would. Thank you again Eric and Mateo!
