What’s the problem?

Fleas are a pest commonly associated with pets but in the absence of animals they quickly turn to humans as their food source. Although not common, fleas can carry diseases such as typhus and plague.  In extreme cases, they can cause anemia in small children or the elderly.

What’s the solution?

To effectively treat for fleas we require cooperation from our customers.  There is prep work to be done prior to the service and then ongoing work after the service to continue the flea life cycle so they are exposed to the material.  The good news is that it does not take long for the entire population to be eradicated.  If you have pets we recommend that you consult with a veterinarian to provide control on the animals themselves.

Ali set me up with the minimum of fuss and took the time to understand what we needed and describe how Green Pest could meet those needs. Technician Kim was an absolute joy to work with - thorough, pleasant, constructive suggestions and excellent execution. We researched numerous pest control businesses in the midcoast and the feedback from other clients was almost unanimously positive. Having worked with Ali and Kim I can see why, we are delighted that Green Pest Defence is now protecting our home. The best service I’ve ever been fortunate enough to receive. Bravo, GPD, keep up the exceptional work and THANK YOU!

Green Pest Defense has always been great to work with. Our previous technician was always professional and pleasant, and our new technician, Nate, has been equally great! He answered all of my questions and was polite and personable. The services truly work too- we have not seen a single tick since beginning with Green. I highly recommend them.

We have issues with ticks and black flies while living in the woods and have a running creek. Kyle Karkos from Green pest defense did treatments on our property and we have not found a single tick on ourselves or our dog. Black flies have disappeared, we are finally able to be outside without those nasty nagging pests. 10/10 recommend.

I called Green Pest Control and they came in 2 days. My house was overrun with Asian beetles. Trevor treated all my inside windows and every place outside from eaves to skirting of my mobile home and even baited for mice just in case. Very knowledgeable gentleman and he took his time. Today I am seeing many dead beetles and spiders. This treatment is supposed to take care of ants and other insects as well. I’m very pleased and definitely recommend this service!!

Alex from GPD is the professional that has been coming to our home for the last couple of years and he really knows his business. My wife and I work from home so we're very in tune with the animals (invasive and otherwise) surrounding our home. Alex has done a great job in keeping any mice, ants, wasps, etc. out of our home. I would highly recommend GPD and Alex in particular. Erik S.

Nate was so friendly and took the time to map out our yard with me to make sure the coverage was as we wanted it. We’ve been using Green Pest Defense for a few years now, and our very large yard with fields and lots of trees has had significantly less ticks in the areas we’ve had sprayed. Definitely recommend.

Chandler and Nate were two technicians who came to our home for an estimate. We were interested in having our trees inoculated to protect against brown-tail moth invasion. They explained everything carefully and they then came back to complete the process once we agreed to have the job done. They seemed smart and well informed. They worked hard. These technicians were very professional. I hope the results are effective.

We were very pleased with the professional service and attention to detail that the Green Pest technician provided to today. All the baits stations were refilled and we notified of the consumption levels. An extra bait trap was provided and a point of possible entry was sealed. Green Pest has been money well invested and we would recommend them.

He was very personable and knowledgeable His explanation of how he would handle the problem was very reassuring. We've signed up for the quarterly service calls program. I would definitely recommend Green Pest Defense.

Upon relocating to Bucksport from New Jersey, my wife and I encountered an unexpected influx of Asian Lady Beetles and flies within our home. Seeking immediate and effective pest control, we contacted Green Pest Defense. We were promptly scheduled for a service call, and the following day, Travis arrived.From the outset, Travis demonstrated a remarkable depth of knowledge and professionalism. He meticulously assessed our situation, clearly explaining the necessary treatment protocols and addressing all our concerns with patience and clarity. His ability to convey complex pest management strategies in an accessible manner was truly commendable. He then proceeded with the preliminary service, executing the treatment with precision and efficiency.Beyond his technical expertise, Travis exhibited a genuine commitment to customer satisfaction. He took the time to ensure we understood the process and provided valuable preventative measures. We are particularly impressed with his proactive approach and his willingness to go the extra mile.We have scheduled further services with Green Pest Defense, including mosquito and tick treatments, as well as ongoing perimeter defense, and we are confident in Travis's ability to maintain a pest-free environment for our family.In conclusion, we wholeheartedly recommend Green Pest Defense, and we particularly commend Travis for his exceptional service. His expertise, professionalism, and dedication make him an invaluable asset to the company and a trusted partner for any homeowner seeking reliable pest control solutions.B. MessingerBuscksport, ME
