Defender Pest Control came to my house and did an excellent job. They were super knowledgeable, respectful, quick, efficient, and effective. You can tell they really know what they’re doing. Since the service, I haven’t seen any pests at all. I’m very happy with the results and highly recommend them to anyone needing pest control!

We had a great experience with Defender Pest Control here in Nashville. They were super responsive on Thumbtack, very accommodating with scheduling, and did an outstanding job for a great price. The team was knowledgeable, helpful in explaining where the cockroaches were coming from, and clear about remediation. While we hope we won’t need them again (summer in Nashville makes that unlikely!), we’ll definitely call them back if we do. Highly recommend!

Defender pest control has been great so far. They are very punctual, great customer service, friendly, and great with any questions we’ve asked. I recommend them to all my friends.

Defender Pest Control should have been my first phone call. Michael helped to resolve some wasp nests at my rental property. Really appreciated the open communication and responsiveness. Looking forward to quarterly services.

I had a nest of red wasps in my shed that I’d tried to make friends with but did not succeed. I sent a message out for an estimate to have the nest removed on Sunday and Monday they’re gone. I was very happy with the service in the price. Will definitely use Defender for future pest control needs!
