Pest Control Technician · Abilene, TX
About
Bug Blasters Pest Control runs a pest control service out of 1433 Cherry St in Abilene, Texas. The company has handled extermination work in Abilene and the Big Country since 1996. They cover roaches, mice, crickets, scorpions, spiders, fleas, ticks, ants of all types, termites, bedbugs, squirrels, and bees. They also perform Wood Destroying Insect inspections for real estate deals and take calls at 325-673-1717.
Customers call for squirrel removal after one animal turned up in a toilet, and Steven arrived fast to cage it and release it. Others needed home sprays for ants on counters or fire ants in yards, with Taylor and Caleb assessing the spots, applying treatments, and confirming no more activity within hours. Brandon handled repeated visits for spiders, scorpions, and general pests, explaining entry points around pipes and making sure the work covered inside and out. Tayler K. managed a termite case with clear steps on what to do before and after, while Tanner added a yard spray during a quick stop outside town.
Technicians reach homes the same day or within thirty minutes when schedules allow, and office staff like Brandi, Brittany, and Stacey set up those calls. Reviewers note the techs stay polite, answer questions on the spot, and adjust plans around pets or kids. The work covers Abilene proper plus spots farther out, with follow-up visits to check results and a guarantee period mentioned after some sprays.
Every review posted gives the company five stars. People keep mentioning fast arrivals, clear explanations from names like Brandon, Caleb, and Laurie, and solid outcomes on ants, termites, and squirrels. The same techs get requested again, and the office stays responsive from first call through the job.

What Customers Say
“I live in an apartment complex in Abilene and had a really bizarre experience today. I contacted my manager and he sent Steven out within about 30 minutes and he said he couldn’t believe it when they told him what it was. I heard a loud splash and water sounds and scratching sounds in my bathroom and ran in there to find a little squirrel had Somehow came out of the toilet! He thought it was a joke but I just closed the door and waited and he was there so fast. Very professional and still probably trying to think if it was real lol. He got the little fella in a cage safely and said they release them humanely. It was truly one for memorable calls.”
“Taylor came to my home to spray and he was awesome! Very informative and answered all my questions. This was the first time having our home treated so there was a lot of questions 😊. Would highly recommend Taylor and this company! You won’t be disappointed! Very satisfied. Knowing that there is a 90 day guarantee makes me feel more at ease! Very thorough inside and out.”
“Brandon did an outstanding job with the pest control service at our home! He was extremely professional, courteous, and knowledgeable from start to finish. He took the time to explain everything he was doing, answered all of our questions, and made sure we felt confident about the treatment plan. It is refreshing to work with someone who truly cares about providing excellent customer service. Brandon was thorough, respectful of our home, and went above and beyond to ensure the job was done right. His attention to detail and willingness to help really stood out.

Thank you, Brandon, for a job well done!”
“Have never dealt with a more pleasant business from receptionist to owner to person doing the work. I highly recommend this business. Years ago when I lived in abilene I used a different company for over 20 years and thought he was the best but Bug Blasters has out done him. I will definitely continue with Bug Blasters.”
“Brandon Hertel did a fantastic job at our home last month! He was quick, efficient, and courteous! He also did some extra steps that our previous pest company did not tackle. I appreciate him and will be requesting Brandon Hertel to complete service at our home again.”

“From the call to the service, everything was top tier. Brandon was very fun and polite, he did a very thorough job. He took his time explaining how there’s holes in around my pipes letting all types of insects in! He went through every little corner on the application of whatever is they use to kill the bugs and I’m beyond pleased with their service. I’m happy to have them as my go-to pest control for now on.”
“Bugblasters was so great to work with and did exactly what we needed. Elizabeth was very polite, helpful and informative. Tanner, the tech, called within the hour of me having talked to Elizabeth and was able to come out to our house (which was outside of Abilene) in 30 minutes. To which he DID show up on time and did everything very quick. Even did a complementary spray treatment for our house. Highly recommend. Will definitely be calling them in the future for all our buggy needs.”
“We have been dealing with tiny sugar ants on our kitchen countertops. Tayler at Bug Blasters assessed the situation and treated. He was very knowledgeable and took time to share information and options in an easy to understand manner. He was very polite and professional. We especially appreciated his willingness to listen to concerns about treatment with new puppies in the house. He came up with creative and effective treatment in the kitchen and provided options we will take advantage of for future prevention and treatment. No more ants! We have used Bug Blasters for many years and will definitely continue to do so.”
“I contacted a company requesting service today. One had not reached out. I called Bug Blasters to see if someone was available today, which was challenging as I know everyone is busy. Brandi, in the office, was very helpful and was able to reach Brandon. He called and was here within 30 minutes. He was very courteous, knowledgeable and informative. I am so very grateful for the quick service, easing our mind and that of our mother.”
“We initially switch from this company and later came back to them because the service is so great. You can see results in just a few days. Caleb was amazing in walking us through the process and explaining everything. He helped us maximize the effectiveness of the bug spray in different locations in our home. They have come back to make sure things are working well.”
“We called Bug Blasters in Abilene to spray our property before summer arrives and all the flies and mosquitoes start becoming a problem. Brandon was our technician, and he was very professional, knowledgeable, and helpful throughout the entire process. He took the time to answer our questions, explained the treatment, and made sure everything was taken care of properly. The service was prompt, courteous, and easy to schedule. We appreciate the great customer service and attention to detail. We highly recommend Bug Blasters and especially Brandon to anyone looking for reliable pest control in the Abilene area!”
“Abilene's long, hot summer kicked up an ant storm for me, unfortunately -- my first bout ever. I tried handling it myself with Borax ant traps, but two weeks into it I decided I needed professional intervention. Enter Bug Blasters: Caleb was my tech, and oh boy did he deliver! After the initial visit, to to assess and diagnose my specific ant/issue, Caleb followed up by strategically applying a granular compound across my property. Two hours later...amazing but true...my pesky problem was solved! I'd also note: Communication throughout this process was exceptional: I requested eco-friendly chemicals, as I have a lot of trees, ground cover and critters across my property. Caleb immediately understood my concern, and responded by switching up his game plan: He special-ordered an ant-specific repellant that is especially easy on soil and wildlife, to make the entire process as green as possible. (Color me impressed...) I hopefully will not require Caleb's services again anytime soon, but if I do I know who I'll be calling -- Bug Blasters!”
“Eric and Caleb were wonderful!!! They were so kind, respectful, answered all my questions AND reassured me the bugs would die. I hate seeing bugs and it was so great hearing there wouldn’t be a problem with any of the bugs I found!!! Definitely will be continuing services with them!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic experience with Brandon! We couldn't be happier with the service Brandon provided from Bug Blasters Pest Control. He was Awesome to work with, showed up right on time, and was super friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. He took the time to clearly lay out all of our treatment options so we knew exactly what to expect, answering every question we had. Brandon got straight to work, took care of business efficiently, and made sure we were completely looked after from start to finish. Exceptional customer service like this is hard to find—we’ll definitely be recommending Brandon and the Bug Blasters team to everyone we know!”
“Caleb was very thorough in explaining what I needed and why. Then when he came to spray he again explained everything he was doing. He was friendly and polite and obviously knowledgeable. I hope we never need your service again but if we do, it will be your company and I will ask for Caleb. I plan to tell everyone I know that this company and Caleb is the best in Abilene.”
“Laurie has been our quarterly technician since we moved into our new home, and she truly is exceptional. Every single visit, she has been thorough, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive, never missing a detail. If there’s ever a concern, she handles it immediately and with care. What sets her apart is how much she genuinely looks out for our family, always offering guidance to keep our pets and toddlers safe after treatments. That level of thoughtfulness is rare. On top of that, the office ladies are just as impressive, consistently kind, responsive, and professional. Bug Blasters has set the bar. This is exactly how a business should treat its customers.”
“Brandon was our technician with Bug Blasters. He did an excellent job and was friendly. He was also very informative and answered all the questions I had. Get bug blasters to service your yard! They will not disappoint! They are reasonable priced and an all around a friendly staff!”
