Description

Some of the pest control services we offer include:

Bed Bug Management: Treating bed bugs is extremely difficult, and DIY methods don’t really get rid of the problem. To ensure that the job is done correctly, a professional is needed. To learn more about bed bugs in Charlottesville, click here.
Pest Bird Management: Pest birds can carry many disease organisms and parasites. Over 60 transmittable diseases can be passed to humans by infected birds, such as pigeons, starlings and sparrows. And quite often their removal requires professional intervention.
Rodent Control: If you spot one mouse or rat, there is a good chance you have more. To prevent a rodent infestation, seek professional treatment.
Fly Management and Mosquito Control: Our technicians have the knowledge and experience to manage and prevent a fly or mosquito infestation. After a comprehensive inspection to identify the problem, we will provide a customized treatment plan to fully manage the current flies and mosquitoes and prevent future issues.
Termite Control: It takes a licensed, trained professional exterminator to spot termite damage. Because there are so few visible warning signs, termite activity and the resulting damage can go undetected for years, which can then lead to costly repairs. If you think you might have a termite problem, contact your local pest control company immediately.
Pest Management: Cockroaches, ants, rodents, and other pests can lead to health problems, allergies, food contamination, and damage to your home and furnishings. At Dodson Pest Control, we have the knowledge and training to treat your specific pest control problem effectively.
Moisture Control: We have a moisture control program that includes several components to assist you in providing effective protection from excessive moisture in your home.
Home Inspections: We do home inspections to help find pest problems, but we also do them to create a pest management plan for your home, commercial business or other real estate property. Once we have this plan, we can help ensure that pests stay away from your home.

I called Dodson this past week and promptly Ray came out to do a very thorough inspection after I was awaken in the middle of the night with rats in my attic. He determined the source of the entry and advised appropriately! I highly recommend Dodson and I will use them for all my pest needs!

Amy S.

Bob from Dodson pest control called me to set up an inspection the day after requesting service. Note, the email went out on Sunday, so the turnaround was really quick. After we connected, Bob came to the home, inspected and was able to treat the same day.Bob was very thorough in his inspection and treatment. He was also pleasant and professional. I received five-star super-fast service and I really liked that it is a small business, not a giant chain.From email requesting service to quote and treatment was 1.5 days. I never imagined my ant problem would be solved that quickly. I have not seen one ant since treatment.Treatment was done on the inside and outside of the house with spray and granular (outside only with granular). I am confident the ants are not getting back in anytime soon.

Response from the owner: Hi Amy! Thank you so much for your 5-star review. We are thrilled to hear you are satisfied with Bob's service.

Jacob Crow

Respectful and helpful, they were able to do an inspection on a house for a loan in short order while remaining thorough.

Response from the owner: Jacob, we appreciate your 5-star review!

Zach Evans best service man hands down. Need more men like him. Recommend this company to anyone.

Response from the owner: Thank you for your five star review, Ash! We're glad you had a good experience with Zach.

I should pose this to the community rather than simply comment. Is $275 out of line for allegedly eradicating my carpenter bee issue when there is still a problem?*Update* They did come back and spray a second time.

Response from the owner: Hello,We are sorry to hear about this. Your comments are being forwarded to senior management.

Super responsive, knowledgable, and polite. Actually identified that we didn't need pest control after all and we were so impressed that they didn't try to push unnecessary service -- if/when we do have a problem, we'll call Bob.

Response from the owner: Thank you for the five star review, Erin! We are happy to hear you are pleased with your service.

Suzanna Bishop

Anna Burt

We are so grateful to Dodson Pest Control! Our house was torn apart waiting for another technician from another company to come help us exterminate an infestation of roaches. When that technician bailed on us (and didn't even alert us), we called Dodson. They were more than gracious to accommodate our emergency, and we had a tech out in less than 2 hours who took care of the first installment. The price is great, and the owner himself took the time to discuss, in depth, the treatments, how safe they are, how they work, and the protocol for service. The office manager is very pleasant and extremely helpful. Each month we can count on our service tech to come out and do a very professional job, and we appreciate actually getting to know him. By the way, best of all? Our roach issue is disappearing. Dodson is tops in our book for quality, environmental-and-people-friendly pest solutions, timeliness, cost, and customer service!!!

Response from the owner: Thank you, Anna! We appreciate your positive review.

Palmer Ware Castrodale

James from Dodson came out to assess our hornet problem. He was able to come the day we called and was very knowledgeable about their behavior and potential issues to look for. We would definitely call him again in the future!

Response from the owner: Thank you for your review!

Allison Hope

I just moved into a new house about four months ago and had encountered a couple of critters I was concerned about. After putting it off I finally called Dodson to get a free inspection of my home. They had someone out within 48 hours to do a complete interior and exterior inspection and then provided me with a thorough explanation of their findings. I didn't feel like I was being sold something just to make a profit for the company, which is huge for me, I was provided a description of the problem and simple/affordable solutions to the issue. Bob was on time, knowledgeable and friendly. I will definitely be using Dodson for all my pest control needs in the future.

Response from the owner: Thank you, Allison!

Whitney Gormes

Response from the owner: Thank you, Whitney!

Susan Jones

Both the management and the technicians are knowledgeable, efficient and friendly. Robert is proactive in alerting me to trouble in any of our tenant shops that he sees during the monthly treatment rounds. Any issues with pests are addressed immediately. I recommend this company for ongoing pest control with the highest standards of service.

Response from the owner: Thank you, Susan!
