Are you struggling to identify what kind of ants have invaded your home? You might be able to make an educated guess after reading the descriptions below. If you feel that the infestation has gotten out of control, call the experts at Koby Pest Control today. One of the most common ants to infest our area and your home is the carpenter ant.
In El Dorado County, spiders are a common occurrence. Although they are more plentiful in the late summer and early fall, they can also be a problem in winter. During the cold winter months, spiders will huddle up next to a house for warmth and protection from the weather. They prefer to live outside but occasionally will come inside.
At Koby Pest Control, we provide fast and accurate pest identification by looking for conditions and environments that attract tree bugs and flying pests. Koby specializes in developing and implementing pest management plans including maintenance programs to prevent re-infestation and ensure the health of your trees.

I hired Koby pest because we heard a rat in our attic. I was told the initial visit was $250. I thought I was investing in comprehensive pest control, but all they actually did was lay some poison holders on my property and throw some poison around my attic. I was told I would not be charged again when they came back to check how extensive the problem was, but they refilled the poison holders on my property anyways and charged me $85. Getting ahold of them to pay my bill was ridiculous, I called 6 times over the course of a few weeks and could never get ahold of someone who could take my payment

The office staff are friendly and professional. I expressed my concern about having poisons sprayed around my flower gardens. However, recent ant invasion in our home prompted me to call them.
Business owner, Mike, personally came and sprayed in & outside our home. He took extra care spraying around my flower beds.
Thanks Koby for being "the best" AND for being community-minded. Your past donations to A Chocolate Affair are appreciated.

I’ve used Kobe on and off for a few years and had no complaints. Unfortunately they put the health of my dogs at risk by spraying when we were not home and our dogs were outside. It was a “sub” who did the work. He didn’t show for the first appointment and sprayed when we weren’t home. I told him several times that we need to be there to bring the dogs in. My smallest dog was ill the next day. I called Koby and explained everything. They said a manager would call. I never got a return phone call but I did get a bill.
I’m not going to sue them but the public should be aware of this

One afternoon we noticed some gross bugs flying around our upstairs windows - due to the steep incline on the property these windows are quite high. I was alarmed by these invaders and knew we needed to respond quickly.
I called Koby and the person who answered the phone immediately recognized the problem as flying ants and assured me that we weren't the only ones experiencing this kind of event.
She was able to send someone out the very next day. The person who came to our house communicated well with us during the day and arrived right on time. As he looked around we mentioned a mother-in

Hard to love a pest control company, but Mike ( I presume the owner ) came out and did a very thorough inspection and job for a tricky issue, at a very reasonable cost. I had used another service a couple of weeks earlier and had no particular issues with them, but Mike was much more thorough and helpful compared to them, and much more reasonably priced. I'm glad I thought to try a couple of companies.

Not sure what all the 5 star ratings are for here. My experience has not been 5 star at all.
I called to schedule service in the middle of a weekday. Got a live anwering service. Left all of my info and was told I would be "contacted as soon as the girls got back from lunch" Well, that never happened. Decided to email them about it directly to give them another chance before leaving a bad review. No reply to my email either. If this is a 5 star company, its not 5 star this week. Im going to spend my money elswhere. Good luck all.

I called Koby's to deal with an ant problem at my rental house. They were responsive and the ants are gone. I called them a second time to deal with bats that had made their home in the attic. They put up a cone so the bats could fly out, but not back in. The bats are gone, they screened off the openings so I won't have this problem again. I am happy, my tenants are happy. The did exactly what I asked and in a timely manor.

It's been a while, but I thought a follow up was necessary.
The weekend Koby Pest Control left the trap, a squirrel was caught (duh.) One squirrel in one trap, while the others lived happily in our attic. We called to tell let them know about the caught squirrel, but no one at the office answered (likely because it was the weekend. Which made little sense to me - what were we supposed to do with the squirrel?) We left a message.
Then we were left with a squirrel in a box that we were apparently just supposed to let sit in there until the weekend was over. We're not lousy people

The stars are for the lovely lady who took my call. A few weeks ago I called to get an estimate for dealing with rodents in an old closed up cabin on my rural property in El Dorado County. The woman I was speaking to turned to ask the owner, who had apparently come into the room and I heard the owner flat out say "we're not doing it we're not doing rodents right now. Too many and we're booked-up." She was pretty terse about it. She didn't even offer to schedule me out a few weeks which I said I was willing to do. The other review said to 'support local businesses

This is a business who deserves your business. I won a free spray treatment at a school fundraiser, they ended up honoring my discount coupon for additional services as well as coming back 3 times to make sure the bugs were wiped out! This is truly honorable. Many times I see Koby's name on the doner list for charities. That is why I would call Koby if I need pest services. We need to support community minded companies.
