We've worked with Brian for years. Never has he been anything other than a fine representative of the Dodson firm: prompt, diligent, courteous and thorough. He not only does his job as a service technician, he explains what he's doing, and why. Today he was helping us deal with the weather-related appearance of a couple of 11/2-2-inch wood roaches.
Response from the owner: Thank you, Vic!

Having moved to Richmond from the hometown of Dodson Bros. Exterminators, Lynchburg, VA I wanted to support them with my business. I have not been sorry. They have done an awesome job of eliminating wood roaches and all other pests. When I moved to my home the garden shed was infested by roaches and by mole crickets. Dodson was able to solve that issue. Their technicians are professional, prompt, and pleasant. The current tech is Derrick. He comes when scheduled, always asks about any pest issues, and brushes away any outside cobwebs. He’s very pleasant and knowledgeable. Good job, Dodson Bros!Another 5* review for Dodson Bros and particularly for Derrick Lee. He is reliable, always on time, always notifies me when he'll come, sweeps down any cobwebs, and treats for pests. If I have a particular problem he'll listen attentively and then address the pest issue. I truly believe it isn't just a job for Derrick. He seems committed to satisfying his clients. Thanks Derrick! I appreciate you.
Response from the owner: Dear Brenda, we're truly honored by your decision to continue supporting Dodson Pest Control after your move to Richmond from Lynchburg.
