“We used Stampede for several years and consistently had great technicians who were professional and attentive (they even wore shoe covers inside the house). Unfortunately, things changed after the company came under new ownership as Barefoot. Since then, appointment times have been changed without notice, and the overall quality of service has declined significantly. We also believe the treatment formulas may have changed. During the last few visits, the odor inside our home was extremely strong and unpleasant, causing headaches from the fumes - something we had never experienced with previous services. The final incident occurred when Barefoot canceled our scheduled appointment (we have a text confirming cancellation), then showed up at a random time when no one was home. They proceeded to spray only the front for a few minutes and skipped the rest of the house, all without our consent, which was confirmed by our security cameras. Despite only partially servicing the property without our knowledge, they charged us the full price. When we contacted Barefoot, they acknowledged that the original appointment had been canceled. They initially stated they would return to complete the”

“Jarris was my technician and his skillset was unmatched, as his ability to communicate and educate on potential services needed. I would give him 55 stars if avaliable, as he was absolutely fantastic during my home inspection. Jarris level of intellect and appreciation for his craft is next level and I refer him to all families in the DFW.”

“Barefoot has made the past 2 years a pleasure to be in my yard. No bug bites! Yesterday Chris Contreras went above & beyond. He carefully avoided bothering a little dove's nest with 2 babies. He is also very thorough getting every leaf treated. Thank you, Chris, the babies are fine & about to fly away. Kayla, in the office, thank you for helping me. You are such a nice lady. Every company needs someone like you.”

“I am filing this complaint to warn other consumers about my experience with Barefoot Mosquito & Pest Control. I have used Barefoot for annual termite inspections without issue. During one visit, mosquito control was offered, and a separate appointment was scheduled. The technician completed the treatment and then handed me a small iPad to acknowledge the service had been performed. At no time did he explain that I was entering into a 12-month contract, agreeing to recurring monthly charges, or accepting an 80% early termination fee. I believed I was simply acknowledging receipt of the service. Before the treatment, I explained that my property is surrounded by mature trees and dense landscaping. The technician assured me, "If any mosquito enters your yard, it will die." Unfortunately, there has been no noticeable reduction in mosquitoes. We still have to burn mosquito coils just to enjoy our backyard. When I called to cancel after the first treatment because it did not work as promised, I was told my account would be placed "on hold," but I would still be required to pay $107.17 per month for the remainder of the agreement or pay an early termination fee equal to 80% of the rema”

“Quite disappointed. I was a client for several years, but since the company was acquired by Barefoot, the quality has degraded tremendously. Recently, they simply did not show up to an important appointment and did not even excuse themselves until the next day, without a major reason, simply because they did not come. I strongly recommend you to find another company.”

“Update 11/30/21 Service Contract wasn't fulfilled and now they want to be paid. Still have pests, they can't get rid of them so they were fired. If you charge my card for any amount of money, we'll see you in court! Awful company. Don't waste your time or money. After months of service, we still have scorpions, spiders, wasps, bee's and bugs. The last time he came out he left bee nests everywhere. (See pics)”

“I had an exceptional experience with the pest control service! Colton the technician was incredibly informative and meticulous in his work. He thoroughly sprayed both the inside and outside of my house, paying close attention to detail, even treating the fence and upper parts of the exterior walls. I'm truly impressed with the level of care and attention to detail they provided. Excellent job!”

“I have had Evolve for years. Everyone form the office staff to any techs have been great. Everyone is very informative and efficient. No rushing with great customer service and their treatment works. Plus it is nice to deal with friendly service providers and staff.”

“Horrible company!!!. They were cold knocking on doors in my neighborhood with posted no soliciting sign. Then the driver of truck #29 decided to argue about the no soliciting sign and call us names on our own porch.”

“Great service. Dustin serviced my yard today and made sure any issue with pests were taken of. He was friendly and professional, letting me know when he would arrive and when he was done. He also reminded me to call if there were any problems and they would be taken care of before the next scheduled service. I have enjoyed this company for 5 years now with no plans to stop.”

“Nathan did our pest control service today and he did a fantastic job. Quick work, professional, and stopped to answer any questions I had. He also gave me multiple opportunities to tell him about any issues we’d been having to make sure he had covered everything before leaving. Also appreciate the heads up about his arrival. Highly recommend”

“My husband and I are new homeowners. The house sat vacant for quite a while before we moved in, so we had lots of creepy crawlers inside and out. I filled out an online form on Evolve’s website and within an hour, Wendi called me. She was so nice and easy to talk to and was so thorough with her questions and information. She outlined everything for me about the what/when/why of their treatment plan for us and it was all very easy to understand. She had Carlos come out for our first treatment just a few days later. He was great- nice, explained everything, and did a full treatment of our house and yard, from curb to back fence line. He let me know what to expect and gave me further info about the rest of the treatment plan. We are already seeing a drastic improvement, the only creepy crawlers we have seen lately are dead ones! As a bonus, their treatments are perfectly safe for humans and pets. I was surprised at how affordable their services are, that is so helpful being new homeowners trying to adjust to having a mortgage to pay!”

“I have been a very loyal and satisfied customer for over 4 years since moving to Texas. Brandon services our house and does an incredible job! They get out anytime I call them in between services and take my allergies very serious. I have moved and transferred services now and wouldn’t entertain another company. Highly recommend!”

“Miles was super friendly and professional. He made the experience quick and seamless. Best tech we’ve ever had out! Great guy. Overall the experience was very positive with Evolve. They were upfront about pricing, patient with explaining details and very easy to work with. I would highly recommend them for your needs!”

“First off, let’s talk about the customer service that I received from Kristen Flores, I believe that’s her name, she was AMAZING. She made sure with all of my concerns that that the tech she sent out met them. Secondly, she made sure to call me after and just follow up and made sure all was good. Kristen, because of you, I will use Evolve again. Thank you for your service.”

“I recently had the pleasure of meeting Chandler- who was truly a breath of fresh air! Right from the start, his friendly demeanor made a great impression. He greeted me with a warm smile and was genuinely interested in making sure I felt comfortable with the services provided. Chandler explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and made sure I was completely at ease with each step of the process. It was such a positive experience that I would heartily recommend Evolve to anyone looking for trustworthy and friendly service.”

“Evolve Pest Control has been great. We have used them since 2019 and they have serviced our home on a bi-monthly rate. Every technician completed their job and went around the entire house. I usually would communicate through doorbell and could see them on CC cameras doing their job. In the spring of 2023 we were worried we may have bed bugs. Thankfully it was a minor carpet beetle problem that was inspected and handled by the service manager James. He was very trustworthy and honest. He showed me the evidence how he new it was not bed bugs and a carpet beetle problem. The difference in treatment was $100 compared to thousands if it were bed bugs. He was honest and did not lie, some individuals would not be in that situation.”

“Unfortunately, customer service and knowledgeable representatives have taken a backseat with many companies, but not with Evolve! I contacted them to set up what I thought would be a one-time service, but after speaking with Wendi, we decided to sign an annual agreement. This wasn't because of a high-pressure sales offer or the price (which is a great deal by the way), it was the level of refreshing, genuine customer service and knowledge about the services they provide and stand by. After speaking with Wendi, she promptly emailed me the necessary documents to get started and scheduled service for the NEXT day. Wyatt was our service technician; he called 30 minutes before the scheduled appointment to say that he was on his way. He arrived on time and was equally professional, friendly, and knowledgeable! He even gave me some tips on future landscaping we plan on doing and how it relates to bugs. Before Wyatt sprayed inside he checked with me to ensure he wasn't planning on spraying any area that I didn't want to be treated. After completing the service, he gave me with a service reminder card that said “Welcome to the Evolve Family” on the top and took a moment to explain what we s”

“The technician always ask if anything has changed. Gets along with the dog! Always willing to go the extra mile to make sure I’m satisfied. Thanks. This last year they have changed techs., now they don’t call ahead, don’t ring the doorbell, don’t talk and they say they completed their task but there is no signs of them being there. This last service they say they were there but my cameras didn’t pick up any motion! They say they sprayed a water base chemical but there was no signs of that. In the last year fire ants, scorpions, bees, large black bugs, and mice! I called them back out for the fire ants and the tech asked me where are they? So I had to walk around and show him where the ants were. I guess they are getting comfortable.”

“So far I really like this company. They guarantee their work and I enjoy the fact that I can enjoy my patio and not be eaten alive by mosquitoes!!”
