Services
We use safe and organic treatment for schools, day cares, hospitals, and restaurants. We offer Integrated Pest Management (IPM), the #1 Source for natural pest control which is an effective and environment friendly approach to pest management that relies on the combination of commonsense practices beyond pesticides.
Carpenter ants are generally large black ants. They have two distinguishing factors from other ants: They have a smooth, rounded thorax; and They have one node, or bump, in between their thorax and abdomen. Damage Main colonies of carpenter ants are usually outside, where they may have easy access to some sort of rotten wood that provides them with easy nest building material.
Pharaoh ants are very small, around 1/16 inch long. Most of them are yellow or gold in color. To properly identify these ants, you may need to talk to a experienced pest control service and/or use a microscope. Normal pesticides do not work with pharaoh ants and can actually make the problem worse than it already was.
Bed bugs are 4-5mm long which feed by biting humans and sucking their blood. Their bites rarely wake a sleeping person but produce large, itchy welts on the skin, They are attracted to their victims by the C02 they exhale - not their body temperature, The typical life span of a bed bug is 10 months and they can survive for 8 months without feeding.
Cluster flies are a little bit larger than the regular house fly. Live or "fresh" cluster flies have fine gold colored hairs on the sides of their thorax. They are called cluster flies because they overwinter in large clusters inside wall voids and attics. These are the sluggish flies that you may see on a sunny winter day congregating by a window where there is warmth.

Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness
Amazing responsiveness, we called late on a weekend when we heard scratching behind our walls and ceiling. Was willing to come out at a time they weren't typically taking calls. Very professional, responsive, and easy to work with. Hopefully we won't need their services again, but if we do, this will be our first call.

Seriously, look no further. I thought all 5 stars?? Must be too good to be true. I was wrong, this service met and exceeded my expectations. Ahmed is thorough, professional, fair, attentive to your needs and incredibly kind. I was disappointed that the place I moved into had fleas, but Ahmed took care of this thoroughly and put my mind at ease. He was very attentive, communicative and did such a great job. His quotes were very fair and he takes great pride in his work. After conversing with Ahmed it was evident that he deeply understands the science behind pest management. Highly recommended and

I kind of don't want to leave a review because my issue was so gross. Our condo basement had the worst - worst - rat issue. I called at least 5 different companies and asked what their plan of attack would be to solve the issue but also keep the cost within reason as we had some relatively large expenses in the past year. ProMax was the company that the best job ensuring my satisfaction from the beginning: 1. They called me back quickly - so they made me feel like my time was valuable 2. could articulate a plan that included more than just setting a few traps (we already had a general pest

Ahmed was very professional and responsive. I called him for treatment at my parents tenants basement, and he came promptly (Same day) and explained everything thoroughly to my mother and I (via the phone because I was not able to be present). Price was very reasonable, and treatment was completed efficiently in a timely manner. We will definitely keep Promax Pest Control in our books, and reach out for further treatments if need be. Thank you!

I have used Promax twice now. I can't say enough about how much I appreciate the quick response to service and quality/care of visit to my home. There is no contract required, and best of all after the first visit,
I really like that I can just text when I need service. Additionally, Ahmed is a very personable guy and gives confidence that your home is well taken of whether it is for prevention and/or a problem.

I called Promax at 530 on a Monday night. My apartment was infested with moths and moth larvae. Another night could have meant the infestation doubling in size. Everyone else I called offered appointments by 11 am or 3 pm next day. Promax came out that night. Arrived by 730 pm. Did all the work and was put by 9 pm. Didn't charge extra fees for emergency service or night service. Payment via e-check. Couldn't ask for better customer service and professionalism. Thank you.

Thank you!! Excellent service and got the job done! We had a stray dying kitten wander into our basement and Ahmed was able to come out that same evening to take a look at the poor guy. He was so gentle and was able to nurse and strengthen it enough to take it to the local vet so that he can be revived and hopefully make a full recovery. Ahmed went above and beyond and we are so appreciative. Thanks again!!!

Promax is the best in the business, hands down. I’ve personally vetted many pesticide companies and I can say they provide the best pest control and prevention services. We are in the Gold Coast area and have been using them for 2+ years. They are on time, responsive, professional, educated and friendly. I would highly recommend!

Awesome service. We had a major ant problem and within minutes the ants were gone! Very professional, quick and honest. He treated our kids super nice and assured us that the solution was organic and non harmful to our two little ones. We will definitely use this company again should we run into any issues!

We have nothing but great things to say about this company. As a business it's hard to find a professional company who truly cares about their clients and their business. Promax goes out of their way to make sure you are a satisfied customer. He not only has taken care of our business for years but now also does my home and all my friends. We highly recommend this company.

Amazing customer service and he did a thorough job at our apartment, I would highly recommend. I called a few other companies before calling Promax and they wouldn't be able to send someone out for a few days. I saw the great reviews for Promax on yelp late in the evening and called thinking I'd get a voicemail but amazingly someone answered my call and was there the next morning to fumigate. I couldn't be more grateful for their promptness, thank you!

Had a mouse in the house and PROMAX did a tremendous job.
Came across the critter on a Saturday morning. The owner operator came right away, examined the property and laid traps. His exam was extensive and he gave reassuring advice on what to expect. The mouse was trapped the next morning (Sunday) and he came back to collect the animal and re-examine the house. He laid additional traps in high risk areas and promised to come back to reassess the situation.
I only wish that all service providers in the city could be as warm profession and helpful.
