Very excited to have the bird nest removed from my vent and cleaned. J came out and quoted me on the project. He was super friendly and is a Spartan fan which is a plus! He was very detailed with what would happen with the appointment. He took the time to answer my questions. Great customer service!
Response from the owner:Hi, Jennifer. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!
We had J from Titan Pest Control out today to treat our multi unit commercial property.
He was prompt and extremely informative answering all of our questions!
We discussed many different programs they offer and had him do the first treatment today!
I definitely recommend contacting Titan for all of your pest and wildlife needs.

Response from the owner:Hi, Peace. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!
Ray and JD were amazing and they did the BESTTTTTT FIR ME thanks guys
Response from the owner:Hi, China. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!
Weโve been using this service for over a year now, and I can honestly say I have nothing but great things to say about both the people and the service. When we first started, we had a friendly guy named Ken who handled our treatments. He was amazing and always took the time to make my son laugh while working outside. Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago, and we now have John, who has been just as fantastic. My kids have the best time with him!
I couldnโt recommend this company more. Not only do they do a great job keeping our home safe from insects, but they also treat my children like their own. Keep up the excellent work, guys!
Response from the owner:Hi, Michelle. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!
I've had a very personal and professional experience with Titan and Brandyn in particular! Always felt as if I was a priority and the communication and timely responses have been unmatched! I've even moved houses and that has been made a breeze with Titan.
Response from the owner:Hi, Ross. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
I wanted to complement Jay at Titan for his professionalism. He came to my house and was quite patient in explaining various options that I had for addressing a snake issue with my home. I grilled him about everything and had follow up questions the next day as I compared Titan with another company. Ultimately, it was the value of the services package that won me over.
When I called to schedule for my first appointment, it was good to encounter a pleasant and customer service-focused representative. The professionalism and customer service I experienced with Titan should be the norm for companies today. Customer service as a whole has gone out of the window. It was refreshing to deal with a company that still upholds it.
Response from the owner:Hi, Mark. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!

I had Jordan come out to handle our mice issue. This was my 2nd opinion on the matter and Jordan and TItan Pest were the far superior option. Their original diagnosis uncovered much more than the large chain pest control entity. Jordan was friendly, personable, knowledgeable and great communicator. He took care of us and our home.

Response from the owner:Hi, Trinh. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
I recently had a few unwanted visitors make home in my attic. Nathan came out same day and provided a solution to evict our unwelcome guest! Once he started work I knew we chose a great company. Everyone is professional and is determined to offer amazing customer service. Nathan ran me through what was being done and was very knowledgeable. Our attic is now free of unwanted squirrels and Titan made sure to patch up any entry points and left our house looking better than when they arrived. Highly recommend this company for their attention to detail, knowledge, and professionalism.

I am so grateful that they helped us with our uninvited residents and I can rest easy now 🤪 thank you so much!
Response from the owner:Hi, Brianna. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!
J. Kesterson, came out & gave me the free estimate, I was promised. He showed up on time, and was both, friendly and professional.

I am immensely afraid of any kind of rodent. The Titan company understood my fear and treated me kindly, explained their process, and even came to my home earlier than what was scheduled. I appreciate that and would gladly recommend their business.
Response from the owner:Hi, Terry. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!
awesome service! very attentive. utilized for both home + yard treatments. due to a trickier situation involving clay roof tiles, brandyn, the owner, came out with roof specialists to evaluate + problem solve, taking into consideration costs, timeline + the season. their humane trapping measures also were of great importance.
Response from the owner:Hi, Chris. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!

Response from the owner:Hi, Gary. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!
Cristian came out for the first treatment a bit ago with another employee (showing him the ropes) and was extremely friendly and helpful! He was thorough with the work and let me know the steps in the process as he was completing my first pest treatment. I had a couple of additional areas I wanted treatment and he took care of them right away. He even explained how to look out for termites in the future to me and showed me how to identify them among other wood-bearing insects versus a type of ant. I have full confidence in this company and their pricing for the time they spend is much more reasonable than the competitors (I had multiple quotes).
Response from the owner:Hi, Laelle. Your feedback is highly appreciated. Thank you for the review!
Very professional company, office staff Michaela, techs Nathan, Dan as well as Jay. Call Titan for all your needs.
Response from the owner:Hi, Christine. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!

Called early in morning and got an answer. They were out here in less than 30 minutes later to relocate Racoon that had been getting into my coop. Even got a snip of the gps where it was relocated.
I had an issue with the previous owner, but the new owner is very responsive!
They did a great job and guaranteed their work. Highly recommend.
Easy to work with and schedule, and great prices.
My wife & I love this company! Great customer service & affordable! Will definitely be referring our friends and family!
Titan is my go to for all my real estate clients. Very professional and easy to work with.

These guys were amazing. Quality work done efficiently. Will definitely be the people we call if we ever need to get rid of any more pests.
I was having a recurring ant infestation around my windows. No matter what I tried they kept coming back. After Titan came by, no more ants. They were very professional and on time. Took care of the bugs with great service.
Everyone I've interacted with has been great, and the price is good, too. The mice that had moved in have been evicted, and I haven't had any issues since. The guys that come out to my house have been quick and non-intrusive while I work from home as well. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Hi, Logan. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!
They done a good job explaining everything they would do for the termite problem we had and done a good job on the follow up. The technician we had was very professional and answered all our questions.
Response from the owner:Hi, Glenn. Thank you so much for leaving us a stellar review!

They did a good job installing my holiday lights
Response from the owner:Hi, Bibian. We appreciate the kind words and are glad we could provide you with a positive experience!
My appointment period was estimated to be between 1&4. Unlike most businesses that give you a range, he showed up at 130 after a quick call. He answered all my questions, gave me several options to pick from and a firm estimate. I agreed to get it done asap and he had the equipment available to do it right then. The whole appointment took about 1 1/2 hrs and he was done. The estimate was better than most otherโs that Iโve gotten. Very happy with the experience.
Response from the owner:Hi, Justine. Thanks for taking the time to share your positive experience. We truly appreciate it!
Very responsive and professional
Response from the owner:Hi, Jorge. We are thrilled to learn that you had a positive experience with us!

1. Termites
The Challenge: Termites are among the most destructive pests in St. Louis. These wood-destroying insects can compromise the structural integrity of your home by feeding on cellulose, the main component of wood. The most common species in St. Louis are subterranean termites, which build extensive underground colonies.
How to Protect Your Home:
- Professional Inspection: Regular termite inspections by a certified pest control professional can help detect early signs of infestation.
Moisture Control: Termites thrive in moist environments. Fix leaks and use dehumidifiers to dry your homeโs foundation and crawl spaces.
- Barrier Treatments: Chemical barriers and bait systems can be installed around your home to prevent termites from entering.
2. Rodents
The Challenge: Rodents, particularly mice and rats, are common in urban and suburban areas of St. Louis. They seek food and shelter indoors, especially during colder months. Rodents can chew through wires, insulation, and structural elements, leading to costly repairs.
How to Protect Your Home:
- Sealing Entry Points: Inspect your home for gaps and cracks in the foundation, walls, and roof. Seal these entry points with steel wool, caulk, or metal flashing.
- Sanitation: Keep food in sealed containers, clean up spills immediately, and maintain a tidy environment to reduce attractants.
- Trapping and Baiting: Use professional-grade traps and bait stations strategically around your homeโs perimeter and potential entry points.
3. Ants
The Challenge: Ants, including carpenter and odorous house ants, are common nuisances in St. Louis. Carpenter ants can cause structural damage by hollowing out wood for nesting, while odorous house ants contaminate food and surfaces.
How to Protect Your Home:
- Professional Extermination: Hire a pest control expert to identify the species and apply targeted treatments.
- Removing Food Sources: Keep kitchen areas clean, store food in airtight containers, and promptly clean up crumbs and spills.
Eliminating Moisture: Repair leaks and use dehumidifiers to reduce moisture levels in your home, as ants are attracted to damp areas.
4. Bed Bugs
The Challenge: Bed bugs are notorious for being difficult to eradicate once they infest a home. These pests hide in mattresses, furniture, and cracks, emerging at night to feed on human blood. Infestations spread quickly through travel and secondhand furniture.
How to Protect Your Home:
- Professional Heat Treatments: Bed bugs are highly resistant to many chemical treatments but cannot survive high temperatures. Professional heat treatments are effective in eliminating these pests.
- Regular Inspections: Check bedding and furniture regularly for signs of bed bugs, especially in sleeping areas. Look for small, rust-colored spots.
- Minimizing Clutter: Reduce clutter where bed bugs can hide and make regular vacuuming a habit to remove potential hiding spots.
5. Mosquitoes
The Challenge: Mosquitoes are annoying and pose health risks by transmitting diseases like West Nile and the Zika virus. The humid climate of St. Louis provides an ideal breeding ground for these pests.
How to Protect Your Home:
- Professional Mosquito Control: Engage pest control services to apply larvicides and adulticides around your property.
Eliminating Standing Water: Remove or treat standing water where mosquitoes breed. This includes birdbaths, gutters, flowerpots, and other containers holding water.
- Using Barriers: Install window and door screens to keep mosquitoes out of your home, and use mosquito nets over beds if necessary.
