Editorial Review
Our Take on Abell Pest Control
Abell offers the clearest refund guarantee on this list and a staffed local branch. Its reviews lean commercial, so residential buyers should ask about home service specifically. The family ownership since 1924 is a real point of difference.

Company Background
About Abell Pest Control
Abell Pest Control brings a century of history to a Calgary branch on Manchester Road SE. The company was founded in Toronto in 1924 by Earl F. Abell, and it says it is a fourth-generation family-owned business, a rare thing in a trade where most national names belong to large multinationals. The Calgary office at 3851 Manchester Rd SE sits in the Manchester industrial area near the Macleod Trail corridor, and Google photos show the storefront with Abell signage.
For homes, the Calgary page lists general pest control, wildlife management, bed bug management, termite control and tick prevention, plus the Home Protection Plan for year-round coverage. Abell's guarantee is one of the clearest on this list: if you are not satisfied with the work within the guarantee period, you get a full refund, with some conditions. The site advertises 24/7 response and free estimates, and it shows QualityPro and Canadian Pest Management Association logos on the Calgary page. Abell also describes an integrated pest management approach, which means inspection and prevention come before chemical treatment.
Abell Pest Control holds 4.7 from 444 Google reviews, read November 11, 2026. Many come from commercial clients such as parkades and food warehouses, where technicians Raymond, Colten and Carlos are praised by name for flexibility and follow-through. Homeowners mention respectful technicians and return visits under warranty. The commercial share of the review base means fewer comments on residential jobs, so ask how often the branch handles homes like yours.
It suits homeowners who want an established company with a written refund guarantee and a branch they can visit during the week. It suits less well anyone who needs a weekend office visit, since Google lists the branch as closed Saturday and Sunday. Before booking, ask for the exact guarantee period for your pest, whether follow-up visits are included, and the Alberta applicator certificate of the technician assigned.
