Our Customers Say It Best

Chris has been servicing our house for bugs and has taken care of our dehumidifier under our house for years. He is very friendly and efficient. We appreciate Mares and Chris very much.

Sherry Vincent

I have been a Mares customer for almost 10 years now and have never had a bad service experience or a unsatisfied work need. From the ownership down to the techs and office support, all have been excellent and they genuinely make you feel as a valuable member of their business. Among the techs I have had, Chris DeBoer has stood out time and time again. Diligence, knowledge and competence are his hallmarks. They need to clone about 4 more of him.

Chris was very professional and had great knowledge of his work. He was very thorough and paid attention to detail. I would recommend Mares Exterminating to anyone. Thanks for an awesome job. He replaced my DH Pump and ran a new drain, shortening the distance almost in half. Thanks
