***BEWARE*** Saela came to my 80 year old mothers door and talked here into a pest control service that she did not solicit. She is extremely deaf and thought she was only getting a one time service until they contacted her letting her know they were coming again. She contacted them and they told her she had signed a contract and she would have to pay $550 to get out of the contract. I have talked to them and explained she can not hear and did not know what she had done. They are unwilling to break the contract. I would never recommend them. If they are so unwilling to make an exception for one 80 year old deaf widow then they are not the kind of company I would support.Saela Pest Control Response

Most HORRIBLE SERVICE a) First the Driver tells me he is coming at a particular time and DOES NOT EVEN BOTHER to text me when he was late. I had to move meetings to accommodate him. When I showed my irritation he just walked away b) When I called to re-schedule, they accepted the same c) Today when I called to find out what was happening, it seems they CANCELLED my contract. They did not even have the DECENCY to inform me d) Sales *** when he wanted business came running 3 times to my House and did not even give me time to thinkSaela Pest Control Response

I've been a customer since 2020 and have had great ********************** and a significant reduction in pest activity in and around my home. Unfortunately, my budget no longer allows for this service and I recently closed my account. It took about 25 minutes, including a stint on hold to accomplish this. This is irritating but not different than trying to close most service accounts. My advice is to be patient (the people on the other end of the line are just doing their job) and clear that you want the account "closed" rather than "canceling" a service visit. Read contracts carefully because, like other service providers, there may be a minimum number of treatment visits required in the contract. Overall, I had a positive experience with Saela.Saela Pest Control Response

Most awful uncaring company. My husband lost his job over a year ago, and we asked them if we could please put our service on hold or cancel our service because we had NO money to pay it, they continued to bill us, and basically said they didn't care. To top it off, one of their technicians left my gate open and my dog escaped causing a hellish day of trying to retrieve her.Saela Pest Control Response

Terrible business, attempted to cancel contract and was told essentially I couldnt until the last two services were completed, so I told them I wanted my contract ended as soon as the services were done (scheduled for September and December). Then company showed up in March unexpectedly and billed me yet again for a service I have been trying to cancel since last August. Apparently they auto renewed my contract after I specifically demanded it be cancelled and did not want any renewal. I attempted to resolve this with the person who showed up and was referred to the customer ********************** line. It shouldnt be this difficult to cancel a service you dont want, nor should the company be able to automatically renew a contract and show up and bill you when youve specifically demanded you DO NOT WANT the service. The customer ********************** team refused to simply conclude services and I had to argue and explain the situation to multiple people who didnt even communicate amongst themselves. This company is incredible shady and I would not recommend anyone do business with them. Even though *** now been told they will no longer come, I was told that once before and dont believe it. 0/10 stars, do NOT do business with this company!!!!Saela Pest Control Response

Saela is a complete and terrible racket that is a total rip off! They said they would allow me to cancel after 3 services but then have a ridiculous termination fee. Also, they are spraying on outside of my house during winter when there is ZERO bug activity. It is such a total waste of money. I would very much stay away from these con artists!!!Review from Dr. Chris G

This company has extremely bad business practices; they told my son (a younger man) to sign here for services after calling them for rodent trapping services inside the house. Afterward, they informed us his signature, which he provided believing an as-needed service engagement, is now expressed as a two-year contract for them to come out at their leisure and do something when we are not even home and bill our card, which they keep on file. Each visit, whether home or not, is billed for $129.99. They showed up when nobody was home, sending a text message from a message service that could not take responses and the text containing a number that could not connect through to them at all. When the technician texted from the house, I responded, "I do not authorize services when no one is home." He did not respond at all to the direct text that he had initiated, and Afterward, he sent the same bill without entering or doing anything inside the house. I phoned them from a number in an email and explained that we had engaged them for inside-the-house services originally and did not need pest services in the winter months and never when nobody was at home. I explained that they could keep me as a customer if we could schedule something in the spring when it made sense. The call center told me the contract my son had signed permitted them to come whenever and bill us every three months all year. Their further explanation said that canceling required paying half of all the missed visits for the remainder of the two years. I expressed I did not want any of their future services, and they have now sent me a bill for 50% of the remaining five visits, which they insist they have the right to collect.Review from Peggy C

Very shady business practices! I will not renew my contract with them. Unless you are home to watch them do the service they do an awful job. No communication. I have repeatedly told them I need to be home to service my home and then they still charge my card even when the service is not completed. Very poor customer **********************!
