Important information
- Additional Info:Caution Advised for Door-to-Door Pest Control Solicitation in Virginia: BBB has received multiple reports from consumers across Virginia concerning individuals representing a company called Bamboo Pest Control. These individuals are reportedly going door-to-door on Segways, dressed in business attire but without providing business cards, brochures, or other standard materials. They are offering pest control services and, according to consumers, using high-pressure sales tactics. Many have also noted that the representatives appear young and unprofessional. BBB reached out to the company’s headquarters in Utah, which confirmed that the business is currently servicing parts of Virginia. However, the company did not disclose how long they plan to operate in the area.
Important Note for Consumers: Be cautious when considering ongoing service agreements or maintenance plans with companies that may not have a long-term presence in your community. If the business leaves the area, you could be left without the services you paid for and with limited options for follow-up or customer support. BBB also found no record of a business license for Bamboo Pest Control in Roanoke or surrounding counties, nor could we verify that the individuals soliciting door-to-door have the required peddler’s or solicitor’s licenses for those jurisdictions.
BBB Tips for Door-to-Door Sales:
•Always check a company’s background at bbb.org before agreeing to services or signing a contract.
•Request identification and proof of any required licenses or permits.
•Avoid high-pressure sales tactics and take time to evaluate your options. Reputable companies will respect your right to review and compare.
•Be especially cautious with pre-paid or long-term service plans offered by out-of-town or transient businesses.
•Know your rights: Under the FTC’s Cooling-Off Rule, you have three business days to cancel a sale made at your home for a full refund.
