Highly recommend! Communication and customer service has been above and beyond. Cooper takes a lot of pride in his work, no doubt about it. For pest and lawn control, you won't get better service anywhere else, he's your guy.

Cooper Powell and his crew are rock solid.  After signing them up for regular service, Powell Pest was able to complete the initial inspection and spray on the same day as sign up.  Cooper is a local guy to Republic, MO and has a wonderful business going.  He is personable and solid in doing what he says he will do.  Looking forward to many years of service with Powell Pest and Lawn.

After years of treating my own yard and stubbornly refusing to hire a pest control service, I finally admitted defeat against the mice and wasps. Powell Pest & Lawn had treated my neighbor’s property for years, and I’d always heard great things about them. Looking back, I wish I had called sooner. They were kind, professional, and took the time to explain the entire process. My biggest concern was making sure everything was safe for my kids and pets, and they thoroughly answered all of my questions and put my mind at ease. They were also incredibly respectful while working around my home, even with my boys playing, my dog whining with excitement, and my oldest following them around saying, “Hey, bug guy!” and asking a million questions. I highly recommend Powell Pest & Lawn. Great customer service and an overall wonderful experience! My oldest definitely loved them!

Cooper is the real deal. Sets very clear expectations and listens to concerns. Won’t find a more thorough pest control company. Rather than just another job it felt as though he treated my property like his own!
