AFTER · what the skill produced

Hi Simone,

Thank you for having us out to 6129 Skyridge Rd. Our technician, Stella Takeda, found ants in your kitchen, wasp nests under the eaves of the back porch, and spiders in the garage. Here are our three recurring plans so you can compare them.

Basic: quarterly (4 visits a year)

Cost: 4 visits x $95 = $380, plus the $49 setup fee on the first visit = $429 for the first year
Covers: ants, spiders, roaches, and wasps on the outside of the house
Not included: mice, yard treatment for fleas and ticks
Between visits: callbacks are not included and cost $60 each

Plus: every other month (6 visits a year)

Cost: 6 visits x $85 = $510, plus the $49 setup fee on the first visit = $559 for the first year
Covers: everything in Basic, plus mice
Not included: yard treatment for fleas and ticks
Between visits: a callback is included at no charge

Premium: monthly (12 visits a year)

Cost: 12 visits x $70 = $840, plus the $49 setup fee on the first visit = $889 for the first year
Covers: everything in Plus, plus yard treatment for fleas and ticks
Not included: nothing listed beyond the coverage above
Between visits: one free callback is included

Our recommendation
We recommend the Plus plan. Stella found ants in your kitchen, wasp nests under the eaves of the back porch, and spiders in the garage. Plus covers all of those, and it gives you six visits a year and a free callback between visits. Premium is also a good fit if you want yard treatment for fleas and ticks included.
