Demetrius is our new Modern pest guy. We were surprised that it wasn’t Robby anymore, but understood it was because of workload. Demetrius was great. He was punctual and worked within our time constraints. He was thorough and professional. —————— Update May 28, 2026: So…Devlin left Modern & now our tech is Robby. He’s also very good at customer service. And, we just had him come back to do an “in-between” spray since we had a crazy in flux of millipedes last weekend. Thx Robby & thx Modern!! ———————— Devlin was very professional & did a great job. He even did some spraying to address our drain flies problem. We were impressed & will set up quarterly service with Modern as a result!

Response from the owner:Thanks Chris, we really appreciate the update and are glad Devlin and now Robby delivered great service. Your feedback helps us keep improving and truly be the best pest control in Jacksonville, NC. Our Jacksonville, NC pest control experts are always ready for in-between treatments and to keep your home pest-free.

Andrew did a good job. Reason for giving 4 stars is that the company should provide their employees that do the spraying with shoe covers. They do outside and inside spraying, so they bring in the houses they service dirt from outside. This is on the company to provide.

Robert is very helpful and on time. I never have any concerns after he sprays. It’s very important to me to spray every three months and not have the water bugs in my home. He always accommodates me because I work two jobs and he works with me on finding time in my schedule to spray.

Response from the owner:Magen, thank you for the wonderful 5-star review. We’re glad Robert is punctual, accommodating, and keeps those water bugs away. Your feedback helps us continuously improve as the best pest control in Jacksonville, NC. Our Jacksonville, NC pest control experts appreciate your trust and are here for your schedule.
