SWAT Team Pest Control & Termite

Bernie is great. Quick, effective and flexible. Highly recommend to anyone for anything.

Bernie is a genuine honest professional. He has worked on my home three times and was always punctual. He gave me an exact time he would be there for all appointments and was not a minute late. Hes an expert! I will be reaching out to bernie for all my pest control needs from now on. I highly recommend him if you need a termite inspection prior to the sale or purchase your home.

As a Realtor I can honestly say that Bernie is the best, period. He is honest, professional and knows what he’s doing. He runs his own business and gets things done in a timely fashion.
Save yourself some time from calling around different places and give him a call, he always answers his phone.

We hired Bernie to take care of a termite problem we’ve been having, and I can absolutely confirm what everyone else here has been saying: he’s probably the best pest control company I’ve ever worked with. Quick to schedule an appointment, honest and straightforward with the problem, and won’t be satisfied until the problem is solved and you’re satisfied. I really can’t recommend him more highly — I’d give him 6 stars if Unilocal would allow.

Bernie is an honest business owner that lives up to his word and follows through on promises that he makes in a timely manner. If you are looking for someone with integrity, who takes their business commitments seriously, you should call SWAT first.

As a Real Estate Broker, a landlord and a homeowner my need for a qualified Pest Control Company is frequent.
Bernie has consistently been available and honest with me and my clients.
Always answers his phone and is quick to make arrangements to get the job done.
5 star treatment is what you will receive from Bernie!

Bernie/​SWAT is the only company I refer to for all of my client’s termite inspections. Unlike some companies I’ve had to deal with in the past, SWAT team is professional and completely honest. They won’t say there is work to be done if there isn’t. I trust Bernie and we use him for an annual pest control program for our own house.

This is a good company. Bernie is the greatest.

We just bought our new home in La Mesa and called several other Companies for a quote on termites. SWAT had the BESt deal. Bernie was very attentive, very honest, very knowledgeable and plus was the most affordable. We will be working with SWAT very soon again, now for pest control… Too many spiders around! Help Bernie!

As other reviews have stated, Bernie was who came down to help us out.
Our problem: With the start of the warm humid weather, fleas came about. We moved here to Lakeside in October and have never had a flea problem with our dogs and have never had drops to prevent them. Note though that we came from Indio, a place too hostile (hot) for fleas and rarely is an issue in the area. So naturally, our labs got fleas. We noticed a little later than I’d like to admit, and quickly got some drops on them. Another prevalent critter here was earwigs but has never bothered us too much, but decided to include them in the flea package.
Our solution: The same day we noticed the fleas and got some drops, we sought Unilocal for a local pest control and came across SWAT. Bernie was on time and very professional. Was actually an hour early, a plus on my books, and friendly. I say friendly because past pest controls aren’t much for smiles, more like get there spray and leave. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, specially if the problem is solved, but it is certainly refreshing. Bernie was courteous and informative on our issue. Answered all our questions fully and had us in the loop the entire time.
Our Treatment: He said it would take about an hour to complete and to not return for about 4hrs. Gave us and the dogs a change to hang out in the open for bit. The odor was strong, but what do you expect? Potpourri? No fleas or earwigs actually. Vac cumming every other day per his instructions. Great experience and results throughout.

I turned on my upstairs light when I started to hear a strange tapping sound. I looked up and found a scorpion in my light. I looked on Unilocal and Bernie got amazing ratings. So I looked up his website and filled out a form for someone to come kill it and check to make sure that there was no other scorpions in my attic. Bernie replied first thing in the morning with an appointment.
Bernie came during the great Southern California power outage. He was on time and very professional. He squashed the scorpion, said that they do not live in the area of town I am in. The environment is too moist for them. Then he check my attic to see if there was anymore.
I recommend Bernie to all my friends and family.

Bernie came to my house on Saturday morning and was nothing short of professional. After having pest service routinely in places I’ve lived like Arizona and Florida, no one has come close to the service he provides.

We bought a new house and had an immediate problem with ants. Called up SWAT and they came out the next day and the ant problem was taken care of. They came back four days later for a follow-​up. We are absolutely thrilled with the professional demeanor and fast service that SWAT provided. We will use them in future for all of our pest control needs.

I emailed SWAT on a Sunday about an ant problem inside my house. Bernie called me back the same day, and came over and killed the ants the next day. He took about an hour to take care of the problem and even came back 4 days later to make sure that he got them all. Bernie is very knowledgeable about his profession and is very good at it.
I highly recommend using this local small business to eliminate any pests that are trying to move into your house!

Bernie showed up within a few hours, spent an hour and a half doing battle with ants both inside and outside the house, and charged a fair price for his work. The next day, aside from a few stragglers, we’re ant free. Thanks Bernie!

I just switched to SWAT from another pest control business. Bernie was very responsive and courteous. He went above and beyond what most do and did a great job!

We had a horrible ant problem at our house. If it was too hot, we had ants, if it was too cold or wet, we had ants. The ants were really determined to get in the house. We called Bernie at SWAT Team Pest Control & Termite and he took care of the problem. We haven’t seen any ants since. Thank you so much Bernie!!!
