Editorial Review
Our Take on Terminix
Terminix earns its spot on volume and reach: a staffed Columbus branch, nearly 2,000 reviews and a written re-service guarantee. Read the contract closely, especially for wildlife exclusion and termite renewals, where most complaints land.

Company Background
About Terminix
Terminix is the name most Columbus homeowners already know, and its local branch at 3695 Corporate Drive in northeast Columbus is a real office with its own Google profile, not a call center listing. The branch shows 4.6 from 1,959 Google reviews, read November 11, 2026, which is one of the larger review counts for any pest company inside the city limits.
The Columbus branch page lists general pest control, termite inspection and treatment, rodent control and exclusion, mosquito control, bed bug treatment, wildlife exclusion and targeted work on ants, stink bugs, roaches and spiders. The company says its technicians live in the area and know local pests. Plans include the Terminix guarantee, which sends a technician back at no extra charge if covered pests return between scheduled treatments. Google shows the branch as open 24 hours, seven days a week.
Reviewers in the last few months praise Faith for listening and answering questions, Joe for being informative during a routine service, and Darrick for handling both the first visit and the follow up on the same account. A longtime termite customer said the monitoring stations work well and the technicians are friendly, but gave two stars over account handling. The sharpest complaint came from a homeowner who paid for squirrel exclusion in the attic and felt the company did not stand behind the work when animals came back.
Terminix suits homeowners who want a single large provider for termites and household pests, with a guarantee in writing and a branch that can send a technician quickly. It suits less well anyone who wants to deal with the owner directly or who expects one flat price without add ons. Ask for the treatment plan, the termite warranty terms and how cancellation works before you sign. Before booking, ask for the company's Ohio Department of Agriculture pesticide business license and the applicator license of the technician who will treat your home, then check both on the department's license search. Terminix does not publish a branch license number on its Columbus page, so request it in writing.

Terminix FAQs
Is Terminix in Columbus licensed in Ohio?
Terminix does not post a license number on its Columbus branch page. Ask the branch at (614) 642-4789 for its Ohio Department of Agriculture pesticide business license and your technician's applicator license, then confirm both on the department's license search.
What are the Terminix Columbus branch hours?
Google lists the Terminix branch at 3695 Corporate Dr as open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Scheduled service visits are booked through the branch, so call ahead to set a time.
Does Terminix guarantee its pest control in Columbus?
Yes. The Terminix guarantee says that if covered pests return between scheduled treatments, a technician comes back at no extra cost. Termite and wildlife work have their own terms, so ask for them in writing.
Is Terminix licensed and insured?
We have no credential records on file for this company yet. Ask for the certificate directly from the insurer before booking work.
What areas does Terminix serve?
Columbus. Coverage is as the business describes it, cross-checked against where its recent documented work is. Confirm your address before scheduling, particularly at the edge of a service area.
Does Terminix offer emergency service?
Yes, the company lists emergency availability. Response time depends on demand, and after a storm every company in the market is stretched.
What warranty do they offer?
Terminix guarantee: if covered pests return between scheduled treatments, a technician comes back at no extra charge.. There are usually two warranties on a job: the manufacturer covers materials, the contractor covers workmanship. Get both in writing and check whether the workmanship coverage transfers if you sell.
