It was much better that I expected. He not only diagnosed the problem but explained the solutions better than the previous exterminators. Great service!

We contacted John Ortiz and he came by and offered a free assessment of our situation, and estimate. He provided excellent service after discussing various options and we're grateful for his professionalism and commitment. My wife and I highly recommend him and would not hesitate to use him again.

Initially I wasn’t happy with the quality of work. The owner had one of his employees come out and do the initial consultation and follow up, but he didn’t really do much of anything. There were still rats running around and I was catching more rats with my Victor traps. After explaining my dissatisfaction with the owner, he personally came out twice a week every week to do a THOROUGH inspection and to check his old traps and re bait the bait stations for FREE. I told him where I was hearing the scratching noises and he was able to actually find the sources of how the rats were getting in. He patched up all of the holes in the exterior yard that was connected to the neighbors’ yards and patched up the internal holes underneath the kitchen sinks. On top of all of this, every time he came out after our conversation he was punctual, sometimes he even got to my house before I did and started working before our scheduled appointment time. He lives in the Bronx, I live in Newark. After his most recent visit I am happy to report that it seems we are rat-free! All that’s left is to monitor. Way to turn things around. I’m heavily considering the quarterly service he offers, just to maintain our home in its rat-free state!
They were wonderful. They helped advising me what they needed to set up traps and was always available when I texted them.

A grey squirrel managed to get into my basement boiler room. I was extremely worried it would escape into the rest of the house. John was wonderful enough to come the same evening at very short notice and set a trap. He was very nice, friendly and professional. Happily, overnight, the squirrel was captured in the trap and picked up the very next day. Pricing was very reasonable. I highly recommend John and Eco Plus Pest Management & Wildlife and would use them again if ever necessary.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing is determined by the specific needs of the client, equipment required and if follow up service is needed. No job is too small or too large.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
It is always crucial to acknowledge the client's needs and expectations. Once those have been identified, I am able to customize a service plan that meets both criterias.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have several certifications including:
7a-Rodent and Structure
7c-Termite/Wood Destroying Insects
7f-Food Processing
Reciprocal New Jersey
Category 8 public health
Nuisance wildlife
I am also a Commercial Pesticide Applicator.
I attend monthly pest control seminars to continue expanding my knowledge.
